Slayer of Gunman
 Sought by Police

Chicago, Feb. 4.-The slayer of Maurice E. (Mossy) Enright, Chica- go's most notorious gun-man and la bor feudist, was sought by the police today. Two men trailed Enright thru the streets and fired II slugs from a sawed-off double barrelled shot gun into his body as he sat at fthe wheel of his automobile in front of his home last night.
 Enright's wife and two sons, and two neighbor boys witnessed the killing. A closed, black automobile slowed down eight feet from the side of the gunman's car, the cur tains parted, two shots fired, and the black car raced away.
 Within 30 minutes scores of gun men, labor feudists and known ene- mics and friends of the gun man had been arrested by the police. A number of them were held for invcs- tigation. Enright for nine years was a leader in Chicago labor feuds and until eight months ago was business agent of the plumbers union. A meeting of the plumbers union tried to oust him. There was a fracas, in which 40 revolvers were in action and four men wree wounded. En- right resigned then.
 The police declared today that it was their opinion Enright's murder was "the outcome of a labor controv- ersy and. that it presaged the open ing Of another gunmen's war"

Montreal, Feb. 4.-Extinction with in 150 years is what the United States faces if the doctrine of birth control continues in it's present as- cendancy, according to Dr. W. A.

THE PRICE OF CLOTHING.

5 Increased rrcdncticr more eff cient distribution and stabilization of prices are necessary to reduce the price of clothing, dealers in mems ], wear have informed Howard Figg, $ who is in charge of the department of justice campaign to reduce the cost of living.
 The above is verbatim from the Associated Press report of the meet ing of the clothiers with MT. Figg.
 Following these conclusions, one would think that the next matter that would have presented itself to the clothiers would never been the means by which these objects could sbe attained and progress could be made towards accomplishing a reduc- tion in the price of clothing. Was s3t? It was not.
 The clothiers got through with their discussion with MT. Figg. Then, says the Associated Press report,
 after the conference, the National Association of Clothiers issued a Statement in which it warned that the public should not expect any material reduction in the price of clothing because of increased wages paid by the industry.
 The clothiers, it seems are more interested in blaming highest wages for the big profits they are obtain Ing than they are in reducing the high prices.
 High wages, it is true, have caused .an increase in clothing prices, but high wages are not entirely respon. ssible.
 The clothiers do not seem to be eager to bring about reduction. They discuss ways and means and in the same breath say it's impossible. $ Why hold conference and discuss sxays of reducing prices when the nonnclusion of that conference is to
 e the flat statement: Prices won't eome down until wages come down.
