ARMOURS MADE
 SUBJECT OF A
 FORMAL ACTION

Washington, Jan. 14-Carrying out it's announced intention of taking ac- ton against unfair trade practices of the big packers despite settlement by the department of justice of pending antitrust proceedings, the federal trade commission today cited Armour and company in a formal complaint. alleging unfair methods of competi- ton in violation of the federal trade commission act and the acquisition of control of competing concerns in vio- lation of the Clayton act.
 The complaint charges that Ar mour and Company by acquiring con trol of two competing concerns, the Lookout Refining Co.,, Chattanooga, Tenn, refiners and dealers in cotton seed oil and lard substitutes, and the Harris Tannery Co.,, later known as the Sylva Tanning Co.,, Sylva, N. C., eliminated those concerns as com- petitors in their respective lines of business and restrained interstate commerce In. the commodities in which the companies dealt.

The government admits the loss Of one member of the troop of guards, killed in the fighting, while several are missing.
 The big oak-paneled door which gives access to the west wing of the Reichstag building was smashed dur ing the attempted rush. It was the prompt resistance of the public secur- ity troops on guard that prevented ingress, which would have resulted in the invasion of the chamber by the mob. Through this door a. large calibre bullet fired from the ranks of the mob penetrated and also passed through a second door into the lob by, crowded with members.
 Tonight Noskes troops threw Q cor. don of rifles and barped wire through out the downtown section. The Will helmstrasse was barred to all traffic and the government building was vir- tuaily inaccessible except to those em- ployed there.

Over 400 Persons GO
 Down Nm French Shin
ONE OF GREATEST MARINE TRAGEDIES OF MODERN TIMES ENACTED OFF COAST
 OF FRANCE ON SUNDAY i

La Rochelle, Trance, Jan. 14.---More than 40 persons are believed to have lost their lives in the wreck of the steamer Afrioue on Roche Bonne shoal, Bay of Biscay. Only 57 sur v1vors are known to have been landed
 Hope for the rest of the passengers and crew faded during the past night as hour after hour passed without cheering tidings, and 72 hours after the vessel foundered many feared one of the greatest marine tragedies of mod ern times was enacted off the coast before dawn Sunday morning.
 Sailors and French colonial soldiers are the only persons from the ship known to have reached land safely.
 ''It was impossible to approach the "Afrique.'' said Captain Jouan Of the steamer Ceyla.n, which was summoned to the scene of the wreck by wire less on Saturday and which attempted to rescue those on board the doomed vessel. ''I remained in wireless com munication with the ship, however, and received the following message: I am drifting and I fear the ship will go ashore Later one message came saying: T am steering for a light
 ''Then came a final message: We are sinking That is all I know about the loss of the Afrique.''
 Some of the rescued sailors declared that when, with great difficulty, the boats were swung out, passengers were afraid to jump for them, seeing they were already half full of water
 Paris, Jan. 14-It was announced at the offices of the company owning the steamer Afrique that the bodies of 12 persons from the foundered ves- se1 had been washed ashore at Stables D'Olonne.

 He was recognized by the general staff as well as by the 300 men in the district who worked under him for his fairness and cheerfulness.

PLANT MAY BE USED FOR MANUFACTURING
 A LOW PRICED CAR
BELIEF. CURRENT THAT NEW OWNERS ARE TO TAKE OVER PROPERTY WITHIN SHORT TIME-OWNERS NAME
 NOT MADE PUBLIC

Announcement was made at the factory of the Remington Arms company yesterday that the plant had been sold and that the new owners would take possession in a few days.
 The name of the new owner could not be ascertained today as Jarvis Williams, works su- perintendent, was out of town and the New York office would neither affirm nor deny the sale.
 The property has been in the hands of Joseph P. Day of New York city for the purpose of sale for long time but it is understood that the sale was made through the recently or ganized Bridgeport Liquidation & Realty Company. This company has a capital stock of $1,50O,000 and the the town clerk a few weeks ago shows that the stockholders are all New York men.
 It is believed that the purchaser is identified with the interests that have recently taken over the Locomoblle Company and that the Remington factory will be used for the manufac- ture of the new low priced car which the new Locomobile company is to put on the market.

No Concrete Evidence Was Offered Against Zone System.

That the Connecticut company of ficials are not Respondent over the ultimate fate of the zone system is seen by a statement made this morn ing by Manager Joseph S. Goodwin, of the company here. when he said that not a solitary piece of concerto evidence gainst the system was forth coming at the hearing yesterday.
 Manager Goodwin appeared very optimistic about the decision of the company despite Mayor Wilson's recommendation of five-cent fare and aid from the state for the non paying lines of the company. It ap- pears to be their opin+Sn that no equitable substitute for the zone sys- tenn was suggested and they seem to believe that until such a course is taken the commission cannot order the system stopped.

 Advices from KieI receised Tues day night said that the Buford, which had been undergoing repairs to her boilers for several days, would leave for a, Baltic port, the identity of which was not made known.

 Discussion Of Problem
Inability of Miners to Get Regular Work
 Causes Demand.
WANT 30 HOURS
 OF STEADY WORK

Washington, Jan. 14-Miners continued today their argu- ments for wage advances and shorter hours before the Pres ident's coal commission adjust ing the causes of the recent strike.
 'It is the inability Of the miners to get regular work that makes them require sixty per- cent increase in wages" said John Moore, president of the Ohio district. ''No coal miner can tell whether the mine is going to work the next day or not"
 John L. Lewis. acting president of the United Mine Workers, gave out a statement reiterating that the miners demand for a 30 hour week only asked assurance that they will have not less than 30 hours of steady work each week in the year.
 ''The public has the wrong impres- sion on that subject Lewis said, "be- cause they were led to believe that the miners were opposed to working more than 20 hours a week. The fact is the coal miner cannot earn a living for the whole year by working only a part of the time, no matter how many hours a. day he may work. But if he can be assured of not less than 3( hours a week throughout the year al a reasonable and fair wage he can make a living for himself and his family
 Lewis said the ,--+oars could produce all the coal the country needed on g 30 hour week basis
 Ed Stewart, president of the In diana district, asked the commission to adjust wage differences in that ter ritory

OF CAPITAL ABROAD
 BEING DELAYED
Non Ratification of Treaty Blamed By Commerce
 Secretary Alexander.

New York, Jan. 14-Investmen ot American capital in foreign countries is being delayed by the failure of the United States to ratify the peace trea- ty, Secretary of Commerce Alexander declared today in an address to the American Manufacturers Export as- sociation. If the peace treaty were ratified and the League of Nations in operation,' he said, American in- vestors would have greater confi- dence in putting their money into for eign securities"
 Regretting that the peace treaty should be made the subject of politi. cal debate at a time when Europe's need for political and economic sta- bilization is acute, the secretary said "the United States has assumed a moral obligation in foreign affairs which cannot be ignored" The fu- ture of American industry and conn merce depends more than ever before upon participation in foreign coun- tries. he added.
 No immediate solution of the prob lem of European credits is in sight. MT. Alexander asserted, but financial aid for the reconstruction of European Countries must be extended by pri- vate American investors and not by the government.
 'The government cannot add to the heavy burden of taxation to give large assistance to other countries.' he said ''Such assistance as the United States gives must be on a business basis Because of the limited amount of capital available in Europe the United States must be prepared to finance a large part of the development of the I-eS and iOdI of American republics MT. Alexander pointed out. But investments in Latin America should be confined to enter prises that will in the shortest time produce comm odities most in demand d in the world at present, he stated. As examples of enterprises best suit able for the investment of American capital, MT. Alexander suggested the extension of railroads in the republic { of Honduras which would open uT large areas of cattle producing coun- | try. A railroad from Lake Nicaragua 1 to the Atlantic coast would develop rich districts in both Nicaragua anc Salvador, he said, and extension ol railroads in Southern Brazil into thu state of Matto Crosse would open III an area twice as large as Texas, cap able of supporting immense herds O. cattle.
 Predicting an easing of the foreigr exchange situation because of tht marked tendency in recent months to
 wards increasing the imports into th' United States, the secretary asserted | that although viewed with alarm il
 some quarters, larger imports may
 especially in so far as they tend to relieve the foreign exchange situation have beneficial effect upon ou
 foreign trade as a whole"
