 Chicago August 12.-Concerted att tacks by federal. state and municipal officials on the high cost of living re- suited today in lower prices of many articles of produce to Chicago con- sumers. It was the first definite bene- fit to result from the attacks on food profiteers and hoarders With the de- crease in wholesale and retail price, there came substantial increase in re- ceipts of various articles of food It was said that producers were rushing shipments to the Chicago market in fear of further reduction of prices in the near future and large quantities of supplies were being taken out of cold storage warehouses and offered for sale.
 Yesterday the first sale of army can ned goods at two down town depart ment stores resulted in the disposal of 60,000 cans of corn and peas at a saving of so per cent over the current retail price.
 A budget of household expenses pur- porting to show that $1,91S is the minimum on which a family of five can live for one year was introduced today by Chicago packing house em- ployes appearing before FedS~al Judge Alschuler federal mediator, with de- mands for increased wages. Mrs. Anna McQuillen. who lives near the stock yards and who prepared the i budget said it was based on June ot this year and that living expenses since then have increased 20 to 30 per cent.

PACKERS OPPOSITION LIKELY


 Washington, August 12.-Organized opposition of the packing interests to any comprehensive cold storage regula- tion law was predicted today by Sena- tor Mcclellan, democrat, Tennessee, be- fore the House agricultural committee. He urged the framing and adoption of stringent Legislation which would cover the period of storage and be of such a character that it could not be evaded.
 Senator McKellar asserted the five great packers practically had a mon- opoly on cold storage, adding that they had disregarded entirely the law of supply and demand Because of the monopoly, he said. five concerns have control over the public and can hold or sell as they please" adding that millions of pounds of poultry and meat had been allowed to spoil because the large interests refused to sell at exist ing prices"

PROBE GOVERNMENT l
 COPPER DEALINGS.
Rx A,soclat.h Press


 Washington August 12.-Governmen ent dealings in copper, as a purchaser be- fore and during the war, and seller after the armistice. were the subject of investigation today by the House subcommittee on ordnance expendi- lures. Total purchases of the metal by the war department were shown to have amounted to s15S.S94479. nearly all se- cured from the United Metals Selling company which was organized at the instance of Bernard M. Baruch, with John D. Ryan as president.
 Expert accountants employed by the federal trade commission testified that this copper had cost the producers who formed the company and who are the largest miners in the United States, ap- pToximately s103, ,03S 156 leaving a pro- fit on the purchasers of $50.306.S .S41. The selling company itself, according to C. w. Welch and Tobias Wolfson, it's executive officers, made nominal pro- fits in commissions on sales.
 At the conclusion o@ the armistice, according to the testimony, the gov ernment's surplus of copper amounted to 1O0 900, 900 pounds, for which it had paid 2315 and 26 cents a pound. A con tract was given to the United Metals Selling Company to sell it back to the producers, whiG was done at prices ranging from 15,s to 1a and 20 cents a pound.
 NJ C. Wooster, chief accountant for the trade commission, testified that the average cost of producing copper in 1917, as shown by the books of the l larger producers. was 13.6 cents, and Tn 1918, 15.9 cents. MT. Wooster said that ] the governments price had been fixed | to allow the companies with the highest | cost to continue producing, and said | that the system had given some of the | lower cost corporations very large | profit.

DROP IN SHOES COMING
 Rv AssoclateQ Press

Boston, August 12,-Predictions of a decided drop in the cost of footwear were made today by leather dealers and shoe manufacturers who testified today at the grand jury investigation of the high cost of living being conducted by District Attorney Pelietier. The concen- sus of opinion, however, was that the decline might not come for another year
 The statement was made that people demanded higher grade of shoes and were willing to pay for them. One firm, it was brought out, had millions of dol lars worth of cheaper grades of sole leather on hand which manufacturers would not buy because it did not come up to the standard demanded by purchas- CTS of shoes
 Former Governor Berglas and Edward P. Douglass were among the shoe manu- lecturers who were heard today.
 The district attorney office said one man who was called as a witness de- clined to testify on the ground that his evidence might tend to incriminate him
 Manufacturers wholesalers and retail CTS who were questioned all asserted, 1t was sad, that the margin of profit on high-grade shoes was no greater today than that received when shoes were sell ing at a much lower price.

STRONG CRITICISM
 OF FEXTRAVAGANCE IN HOUSE OF COMMONS
By AssooIa,ed Pres

London, August 12.-In the House of Commons tonight the ministers had to listen to strong criticism of the extraV- agance Of tine government in the matter of ornaments. but Winston Spencer Churchill, secretary Of war, in a general defense of the government, said he was able to promise considerable retrench- ment in this direction. His speech be- trayed that the government was trying as far as possible to meet the popular demands for greater economy.
 Major General J. F. B. Seely' under secretary for air, made the point tllat t1t the efficient air force had saved lle country millions in money and thousands in lives this year in connection Wllh the troubles in Afghanistan and Bgypl.
 The Right Honorable Sir FredericN Banbury, unionist, argued that the peopie xvfn1ld never economize while seeing mn isters riding about in expensive auto mobiles at the nations expense
 MT. Churchill, defending the govern nent. said that through this policy II was beginning to gain control over ex- nenditure. and that it had been arranged 1rith France that by the end of october the British forces on the Rhine may De reduced to a single strong brigade.
 The delaved peace with Turkey ana Ri,learia and he position in Mesopo- tamia prevented immediate reduction ol the large forces while the Irish eXecu- tive was strongly opposed to reducing the Irish garrison.
 Mr. Churchill argued against abolfsh- ing the framework of the anti-aircratt organization on the ground that no lorit of attack could more easily or secretly be prepared than an air attack
 He contended that instances or mudaie and mismana cement were remafNaoiy few considering all, and said that oe- spite waste and muddles the govern noent was overcoming troubles in man. ner to challenge comparison with any other belIigerents, not including America.
 Rv next year. the war minister con tinued. there would be only two great nations in the world free from conscrlp- ton. Great Britain and Germany, ana only one of these voluntarily free. Ever the United States was embarklng on policy of conscription.
 MT. Churchill said he held most strong 1y that a resoute and earnest effort be made to economize.
 The risks of the financial situation were such that risks in other directions must be faced. A reduction of eXpen- ditures would only be obtainable by dis charging officers and men from the army and air forces as quickly as the situation allowed Every effort would be made to obtain decisions of world Iol- icv which were necessary before the government could proceed upon it's path
 MT. Churchill said he believed that foul or five years hence it would be found the best course for the armed forces oi the crown would be to aim at scientific progress and quality, rather than at mere numbers or instant readiness for action He fully agreed with the house that reduction in the armaments was the first need the government had to face.
