SAW BIRTH OF GREAT MEN
Year 1909 Was Remarkable for the
Advent Of Number Of ~Personages
Who Won Distinction.

During 1909 occurred the births Of
more distinguished persons than in
any other year of the last century. 1t
is. of curse, just possible. though
not at all likely. that during one Of
the last few years of the century
there may have been born children
whom the future Will prove to he as
great as those who SAW the light in
1909, bet aIl probabilities are against
it. IT would he truly marvellous should
any one Of those wears have brought
into being celebrities whose names
shall one day rank with those Of the
Americans Lincoln. Poe and Holmes !:
II EngliShlnen Darwin, Tennyson and
Gladstone and the English woman
Elizabeth Barrett Browning: the Ger
man MendclsSohn and the Pole Chopin.
These anne stand for achievement in
craftsmanship, literature. music and
science that must remain unparalleled
so far as human intelligence can fore
see. The eighteenth century had such
a year in 1863. which has been called
The Year Of Great Babies"
The conditions Of unrest, of pnfran-
chisement, the opportunities that came
TO these notabilities in their youth can
hardly be repeated.
To those who believe in the mystic
properties of numbers there viii be
significance in the fact that to 1909 be
longs a series of significant dates that
seem to be connected in some occult
way with human liberty. Though we
may admit that there is no real Signifi-
cance i'm the condolences. it is at least
interesting to know how many dates
ending with the figure 9 have been
notable for marking eras in human
freedom.
Beginning with the Christian era.
the year 9 saw the first great victory
Of the Germanic tribes under Hermann.
or Arminiu>. the first rising Of that
power which was to DESTROY the Roman
empire and make civilization Germanic.
The year % is the date Of the Cruel

Bread prices will not be increased.
This decision was made yesterday
by the advisory board of the De-
partment of Justices anti-high-
price campaign. of which special
Attorney General Howard
Z. Figg is chairman, on requests by
Washington master bakers for an
increase.
The action of the board was unan-
imous, but il consented to reopen
the case on May 1 when demands
for an increase in salary by jour-
neymen bakers are expected to pro-
vide additional reasons for a higher
priced loaf.
Market Fixes Decision.
Decision of the board to refuse
the increase was based on the
ground that yfHe ingredients enter

was deemed inadvisable to grant an
lHCNSaSC thclNlg pSNoNSS
the bakers had purchased large
quantities of -four at higher prices
just before the market began to
descend.
Evidence was submitted to show
that some of the bakers now are
at a loss and others bare
ly making expenses, but the mas
ter bakers consented to the edict of
the advisory board to retain the
present prices until May l.
The increase asked by the bakers
at Wednesdays meeting was from
Z to SIz cents a loaf. which would
have caused the public to pay 10
cents. The size of the loaf also was
to be increased from IL to II ounces
under the terms of the bakers re-
quest.

Charges and counter-charges of

Members Make Protest.
Several members of the commit

the hearings. but they nevertheless
continued in this way until late
