TELLS GERMANY IN STRONG MANNER TO
 RELEASE STEAMERS
Ships Loaded With Munitions in Kiel Must Be Freed at
 Once Allies Declare

Paris, Oct. 5.-The council of ann bassadors today dispatched a note to Germany demanding immediate re- lease of three ships loaded with mu- nitions for Poland, being held in the Kiel canal by German authorities. The note specifically mentions the Danish ship Docrit, but two other ships are also held.
 Germany holds that she is neutral in the Russo-Polish war and that therefore she could not permit the passage of the ships destined for Danzig. The ambassador points out that Germany's attitude constitutes a direct violation of the Peace treaty in as much as the treaty specifics that the Kiel canal is free water way for all nations.
 Tn enote is crouched in the strong est terms and leaves no room for fur ther discussion by Germany.

Business Men Say Manufac- turers' Practice Responsi-
 ble for High Prices

Washington, Oct. 5.-Partial re sponsibility for high prices were laio today on the trade practice of manu' lecturers guarantees against price decline by those who protested against the custom at hearings be- fore the federal trade commission More than 200 spokesmen for busi- ness interests were present to advise with the commission in formulating a policy.
 The statement that prices would have gone down soon after the armis- tice in many lines had the price guarantee practice been unknown, was brought out in answer to questions by Chairman Murdock Without eX- ception opponents of the system de- clared their belief had been confirm ed by breaks in commodities where the practice was not employed. They cited the sugar and silk market as typical.
 James A. Goldsmith of New York representing the silk associations of America, said the guarantee could be constructed in no other light than as a means of maintaining "a general ly high level of prices and mitigating against any reduction which would have followed natural operation of the law of supply and demand"
 Cites Silk Industry.
 Silk prices, he said, had declined fifty per cent in six months, which would have been impossible had the wholesalers been guaranteed against loss by the manufacturers. The guar antee against decline he declared also means plants will be shut and in- dustry stagnated in order that the guaranteeing manufacturers will not have to dig into their pockets and re pay the wholesaler and other pur- chasers.
 "What about holding up artificial prices, like war prices, and would they have been reduced, except fo1 the price guarantee ?" Mr. Murdock inquired.
 "Unhesitatingly I would say they would have fallen long ago." MT Goldsmith replied. "I would not at- tempt to say to what extent the guar antee has maintained the prices, bu. it certainly. has held them much longer time than had the old law o1 supply and demand been permitted to operate"
 Only two speakers defended the practice but their side will be fully heard tomorrow. R. U. Delepenha New York, representing the National Preservers and Fruit Products Asso. ciation approved the custom, say. ing it's benefits more than offset any ill-effects depicted by opponents.

BELIEVE MAYORS
 MIND IS MASTER

Neither Mac Swiney Family Nor British Believe Striker
 Will Die Soon

London, Oct. 5-The condition ol Terence MacSwiney, lord mayor of Cork, incarcerated in Brixton prison, remained unchanged tonight.
 Athletic information regarding Mayor MacSwiney's fast continues to be confined to cryptic statements from the home o.Tice and the more elaborate bulletins from the Irish Self-Determination league.
 Inquiries today brought word that neither government officials nor the MacSwiney family believe the pris- oner is in immediate danger of death.
 On the contrary. league officials said they thought that although the mayor was much exhausted, careful nursing" would restore him to normal should his release be effected within a few days.
 The same informants expressed the opinion that the mayor would be able to withstand the eYfects of his ab- stinence from food for "quite some time."
 British Watch Striker.
 The home office withheld com ment on these possibilities. So far as we know, he is receiving no food, remains the only government reply to queries and the question as whether the government has taken measures to insure it's knowing should attempts be made to administer nourishment, meets with the cfficialrejoinder
 Government agents are always in attendance at the prisoners bedside.'
 The public is waiting with interest the Announcement in the case. Opin- ions regarding the sincerity of the two factions and the ultimate outcome, however, are not one-sided. Many observers accept as competent the Irish Nationalist contention that the fast is merely an illustration of the supremacy of the mind over the body and that expert nursing and the wig liant watch maintained for the de- lection and quick treatment of threat ened complications are playing an important part in MacSwiney's sur prisig demonstration of endurance.

Riga, Oct. 5.-Adoiph Joffe and M. Dombski, respectively chief Russian soviet and Polish delegates to the Peace conference, are holding ire quent public conferences at which vital questions of the armistice line between the Russians and Poles is being discussed
 There seems to be every reason to believe that they speedily will reach an agreement if the Moscow and Warsaw governments do not inter- fere.
 Reports of internal dissentions in Warsaw are causing uneasiness here, as there are may indications tha, Dombski's speedy signature of an armistice would be great presonal victory for him, and possibly make of him an important political figure Tn Polanl that the peasant party insist on his selection as premier.
 The agreementto sign the armis- tlce by October 8, was reported this evening after an informal conference between Dombski and Joffe.
 Details of the agreement have not yet been announced. The main com mission has been working all day in 9 routine way on legal, financial and economic questions, when late in the afternoon Joffc and Dombski went into session with their secretaries and got together on the main ques tions in dispute. The protocol was quickly drawn up and the signing oi 1t by both chairmen followed.
