FASTIDIOUS TASTES
CAUSE HIGH PRICES

Washington, May 27.-Fastidious
tastes of the public are in part re.
sponsible for present high shoe prices
William McAdoo, Jr., of New York,
vice president of the Central Leather
company, declared today pef're the
senate committee investigating shoe
prices. He denied that his company
was making exorbitant profits but
said its profits in 1919 were $13,
2Ss,4s1 compared with $4,876,-
923 in 1914.
Mr.. McAdoo said that because of
"a marked decline" in the demand of
shoe manufacturers for leather, his
company had reduced production
from 10 to % per cent. curing the
past three weeks, but added that no
further reductions were anticipated
in transportation and financial be.

Chairman of Committee Represent
ing Lines at Hearing Gives Final
Views on Subject

Chicago, May 27.-Fair wage in
creases for the 100000 railroad EN-
ployes in America are nov opposed
by the railroads, the labor board wa:
informed by E. T. Winter today in
closing his reply to the demands OF
the men for increases in pay which ii
is said total 81, $1,OOO,O00,uou.
Mr. Whittier, who is chairman of the
committee representing the roads in
the hearing, said that in return the
railways expected honesy anu con,
scientious work and that each EN-.
ployee would "feel obliged to give eff.
fcient and ungrudging service"
The roads are opposed, however
to some demands presented to the la.
Dor board by the employees because
they care unjustifed and not uphelG
by the facts in the case," he said
They also are opposed, he added, to
the incorporation of national agree
ments entered into by the federal
railroad administration INTO any
awards made by the board.

RESOLUTION PASSED
FOR WORLD MOVEMENT
Methodist Protestant General on
ference at Greensboro Meeting
Indorses Interchurch Efforts

Greensboro, N. c., May 27.-A res
olution indorsing the aims Of the In
terchurch World Movement was
adopted today after prolonged de
bate by the Methodist Protestan!
General conference in session here,
with delegates attending from rs
states. The denominations financial
relations with the movement are to
be embodied in another report, at
which time the church's future con-
nection with the movement will be
decided.
A proposal to consolidate the
boards of young peoples work and
of education was defeated, and a
proposal to consolidate home and
foreign mission interests under one
board was sent over until the next
general conference. A reso:urfon con-
demning the use of tobacco by the
ministers was referred to the COM
mittee on "applied Christianity"
The conference decided tonight af-
ter lengthy debate to merge it's pub
fishing interests at Baltimore and
Pittsburgh, but an effort to have Bal
timore chosen as the location of the
consolidated business failed when a
substitute resolution appointing a
commission Of Is men to decide on
a location and other matters result
ed in a tie vote, which President T.
H. Lewis of Maryland decided by
casting his vote in favor OF the sub
stitute arrangement the commission
will have the ensuing four years in
which to perfect the consolidation
plans, which will be reported to the
conference in 1924.

BRYAN EXPECTS
NEW AMENDMENT

! Philadelphia, May 26.-Anothe,
amendment to the federal constitu.
tion providing a single standard Of
morals for men and women and in
flicting severe penalties for i'm.
morality was predicted by William
Jennings Bryan in an address be-
fore the general assembly of the
Presbyterian church in the United
States here today.
He then commended the assembly
for having gone on record for 8
single code of morals.
A plan of union for 18 Protes
tant churches in the United States
was approved today by the genera,
assembly. This is the biggest steI
taken so far by the body at the
present sessions in bringing about 8
union of Protestant denominations
Two days ago a union of Presby'
terian and reformed churches, botf
of which hold the Calvinistic, faith
lnd conform to the Presbyterian
system, was approved. This was fol
lowed by similar action by the
Presbyterian church in the South.

DOESN'T TELL WHAT HE'LL
DO WITH TREATY

Washington, May 24.-The Re-
publican peace resolution =. was We
toed today by President Wilson.
Such a method of making peace
with Germany, the President said,
would "place an eneffaceable stain
upon the gallantry and honor OF
the United States"
Without announcing his inten-
tion regarding the treaty of Ver-
sailles, the President declared that
the treaty embodied the important
things omitted by the resolution,
and said that by rejecting the
treaty, the United States had de-
clared in effect that it wished "'to
draw apart and pursue objects and
interests of our own."
"Such a peace with Germany"
the message continued, a peace in
which one fthe essential interests
which we had at heart when we
entered the war is safeguarded-is,
or ought to be, inconceivable, is in
consistent with the dignity of the
United States with the rights and
liberties of her citizens and with the
very fundamental conditions Of
civilization"
The President added that the
peace resolution omitted mention
of many important objects for the
indication of which the Unite1
States entered the war.

BETTER COTTON WEATHER
Crop Showing Improvement, Say,

Official Bulletin.
Washington, May 27.-Weather
conditions during the week ending
yesterday were more favorable for
cotton, and as result the crop is
showing an Improvement in most Sec
tions, according to the national
weather and crop bulletin of the De-
partment of Agriculture.
Moderate temperatures prevailed
except in the more eastern sections of
the belt, where it was rather cool.
Rainfall was light to moderate except
in the northwestern ana southeastern
portions, where some heavy rains oc-
Cured. East of the Mississippi River
the weather showed considerable i'm.
provement over the preceding week,

SUFFRAGE ISSUE TO
BE SETTLED SOON

Baton Rouge, La, May 27.-The
general impression in the legisla-
tive circles is that the suffrage is
sue in scheduled for early decision
as result of the action Of the House
Of Commons on registration and
election, which ordered a favorable
report on the bill giving state suf-
frage to women. Those favoring
federal ratifications are opposing
the state suffrage measure.
Federal ratificahons advocates
will have their hearing next We'd
nesday night, June 2, and action on
the federal amendment by the COM
mittee is expected at that time. Al
though the state ratificationists,
who have the backing Of all anti
suffrage forces at this stage of
fight have secured q favorable re-
port on thir measure, it is not
thought they will force a roll call
in the House now, because state
suffrage, being a state constitu-
tional amendment will require a
two-thirds vote, while federal rati-
fication can be accomplished by a
majority vote.

can. Michigan, in charge OF the meas
ure, said its passage might be at
tempted Saturday, but some other
