Baruch Goes on Strike
Against High Prices


Washington, d. c., Oct. 23.- Ber-
against he high cost of clothing and,
as his way of doing his bit. proposes
to make his present wardrobe last a
while longer. Notice from his boot
maker that S45 would be the price
ot his winter footgear was the last
straw
1T is years since I bought any
clothing. I have a man who does
that for me-" said the ex-chairman of
the War Industries Board. He knows
what 1 want. buys it. and I pay the
bills. The other day he came to me
and said that 1 ought to know the
shoemaker was charging $45 for new
shoes and the tailor $3.50 for a busi-
ness suit. I told him I would have
to try and struggle through with
what 1 have.
1T is not a question of the s45 or
the S160 with me, 1t is question of
reducing the cost of things. Prices
are now high because of under-pro-
duction; there are not enough shoes
and enough cloth for suits to go
around. The man who now buys
shoes or clothes he can very we'll do
without. is simply making conditions
worse and moving up prices on the
man who has to have shoes and who
may not be as fortunate as 1 am in
having the money. l will not buy any
more until 1 really must have them.

GENERALHAS
NARROW ESCAPE
American Mission to Armenia
Fired Upon by Bandit
Force
By Associated Press

Constantinople, Oct. 2S.-Major
General James G. Harbord, head of
the American mission to Armenia,
was congratulated upon his arrival
here on his escape from capture by
bandits a few miles from Mount
Arrat, while the mission was return
ing to Frvan. Part of the mission
was attacked and held prisoner for
few hours on September 80 by
Kurds, Tartars and Turks, who fired
upon the automobiles carrying the
Americans, several of the mission
narrowly escaping death.
The attack came while the cara
van was proceeding through the
valley of the AraXes, but fortunately
General Harbord's ear had reached
the plain leading to Erivan before
the attack was made. 1t is believed
that had he been captured he
would have been held for ransom
by the bandits.
Doubted Nationality
The original reason for the at
tack appears to be that bands who
are warning with the Armenians
doubted the nationality of the
prisoners were really Americans
they were released, their automo-
bilos were restored and most of
their property which had been
stolen was given back to them. The
chiefs declared they desired peace.
but asserted that peace was possible
only If some strong outside power
iatervened. They expressed the fear
that thousands would die of starva-
ton this winter owing to unsettled
conditions in Armenia.
What happened to the mission Is
an almost daily occurrence in that
section, where raiding bands are al
most constantly destroying prosper
Gus villages, both Armenian and
Moslem. Where the missions auto
mobiles were detained was formerly
an Armenian village. Ten days be-
fore the mission reached there n
Moslem band bore down on the
place, wrecked the buildings, drove
out or killed the male inhabitants
and held the women captiveS.

lie opinion alone can decide.
Mr.. Gompers in his statement to
the Industrial Conference did not
go into details as to the support the
federation would give the steel strik-
ers. The decision, he said, came
after the executive council had con-
sidered in detail reports from the
various strike centers.
Defeat late yesterday in the in
dustrial conference of the resolution
proposing intervention in the steel
strike, which the labor group had
urged with all the power it possess
ed, was understood to have led the
federation's executive council to
take its action.
Labor withdrew from the confer
ence after its final effort to obtain
adoption of n collective bargaining
resolution had been defeated by
the vote of a majority of the capital
group.

r. veterans.
Almost before DIR. Nudge had
ceased speaking, Captain Francis H.
HOY was on his feet and called Tor
a volley of appreciation from his
veteran comrades. The old soldiers

Attacks Sinn Feiners,

London, Wednesday, Oct. %. -
Speaking at Wallasey, Cheshire, to-
night, Field Marshal Viscount
French, Lord Lieutenant and Gov
ernor General of Ireland, bitterly
attacked the Sim Fein Government
of Ireland. Among other things,
he said:
THE self-constituted, illegal and
insane Sim Fein Government is pos
sessed of great secret army called
the Irish Volunteers" to which are
attached assassins whose business it
is to murder police and soldiers who
question their DEGREES in any COM
munity. The people are frightened
into screening the offenders, and
courageous efforts on the part of the
police are abortive. We are anxious
to give determination and to be
faithful and just to all, but little can
possibly be done until law and order
are established. When the people
hear of coercion l hope they will
consider the matter in just light"
