 CALL OFF STRIKE
Export Freight Embargo is Lifted, Following Return
 of Strikers

New Orleans, Feb. 18.-Labor trou- bles on the New Orleans water front were ended late today. when union freight handlers, who have been on strike February z, voted to return to work. Their action came few hours after union coastwise long shoremen voted almost unanimously to resume their labors. ~
 With the ending of the strike, the export freight embargo, imposed shortly atfer the men quit work, was lifted. Non-union men, employed by private contractors, have moved a great deal of accumulated freight, it was stated, and resumption of work will put port activities almost on a normal basis.
 Coastwise longshoremen went on strike because of dissatisfaction with a ruling of the national adjustment commission against increasing their wages. They were joined by the terminal freight handlers and for several days export freight was completely tied up.
 Notification by Director General Hines that the railroad administra- ton could not negotiate regarding wages with the men when they were on strike resulted in calls for the balloting today.

CIVIC FORUM PAYS
 HIGH TRIBUTE TO
 HERBERT HOOVER
Presents Medal of Honor, is Given to Only Three
 Other Americans

New York, Feb. 18.-Herbert Hoover, hailed as 'financier, diplo- mat and statesman" by Charles Evans Hughes, at testimonial meeting given in his honor here to- night by the civic forum, declared that the nations sense of duty to the greatest number" is in danger of being overwhelmed by selfish ness and partisanship."
 ''1n recognition of his "distin- guished public service" Mir. Hoover was presented with the Civic Forum medal of honor, with which only three other American citizens have been honored--Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas A. Edison and George Wash ington Goethals.
 In accepting the medal, MT. Hoover said that he only did so on the con dition that the recognition include his colleagues and the thousands Of men and women of America who gave me their support in my undertak- ings."
 It was only the common sense" and "whOle-hearted cooperation Of the American people that had made his relief work in Europe a success, Mar. Hoover said.
 q believe this quality of co-opera tion, will coptinue,"''. he added, "sl- though we are faced by another com- plex problem" he asserted. "We are in some danger that selfishness and partisanship will overwhelm our sense of duty to the greatest num- ber."
 MT. Hughes, in making the presen- tation, said that as America has no military or naval honors or govern mental recognition to bestow on MT. Hoover, "we are seeking to give ex- pression to the thought of people of America, and without preference to class, without regard to party or to politics, we are gathered in the public interest to honor a great civil- ian hero of the world war"

PR0FITEERING ONLY SECONDARY CAUSE
 OF HIGH PRICES
Appropriation Bill Provides for Abolishing Mine in
 Various Cities

New York Feb. 1S.- Profteering is the last and least of six reasons for the high cost of living, given today by Howard E. Figg, an assistant United States attorney general, at the ninth annual convention of the National Dry Goods association. MT. Figg asserted, however, that some dry goods dealers were guilty of prof iteering and should be punished with out trial.
 ''The first reason for present con ditions" said the speaker, lis the increased volume of money and cred it's; second, the wide increase in wages, due partly to war necessities and government wage scales; third, lessened world production; fourth, increased cost of distribution; fifth, reckless extravaganza and spirit of speculation, and sixth, profiteering.
 Mr. Figg predicted that there would be no appreciable reduction in prices until labor "considers itself part of the whole of industry and con- sents to cooperate"
 ''I do not mean," he explained, "that labor must give up. it's short work days and it's high wages, but
 
 back and work full sixty minutes in each hour"
 Labor cannot be made to see the position into which it is putting the entire industry of the world MT. Figg said, adding that no apprecia- bly, reduction in prices could come until all 7,!zsslabof,s the pub- lie, the manufacturer, producer, wholesaler and distributor-co-ord mated.
 The excess profits and luxury taxes are themselves factors in higher cost of living and one tax which can be controlled "at central point" must take their place, MT. Figg said, ex- plaining that this meant single tax on the ultimate consumer.
 q think the retailer has very definite part to play in making labor see the light" MT. Figg said. You retailers are dictators to the man. ufacturers and should reflect the pub lies attitude to the manufacturer. The public is entirely saturated with high prices. l doubt if it can absorb very much more"

 Teachers VOTE DOWN MOVE TO ENDORSE RESERVA ATIONS Women Declare Opposition to vio. lence but Warn Against
 lmperiling Real
 Liberty

Chicago, Feb. 1S.--An attempt was made in the closing session of the National League of Women Voters today to reconsider resolution against universal compulsory military training, passed earlier in the day. The motion to reconsider failed after spirited argument or both sides.
 A resolution indorsing the league of nations was passed after a clause called for reservations had been stricken out. The resolution read:
 Resolved, that we urge the ad- hesion of the United States to the league of nations with the least pos sible delay"
 Miss Alice Stone Blackwell of Massachusetts, who introduced the resolution, had included in the ori- ginal draft the clause with such re- servations as may be considered necessary" but this was eliminated after heated debate.
 The rights of free speech, free press and free representation were empha- tically supported. The women de- clard themselves opposed to any at tempts to use violence against the government but warned that Gill con- sidered attempts to meet this diff culty" imperiled the real liberty of American citizens.
 Proper provisions for education and for increases in the pay of teachers were urged.
 Maud Wood Park of Boston heads the league, according to the results of an election by the board of directors of it's officers.
