American girl recently found them in

This modern American "Alice"
was debutante in her own country
"a. very young one, to be sure, but

Here is part of letter her father

this country:

PLAN STRONG MEASURES
Seek to Uncover Law Violators In
 Coal Car Distribution
By Associated Presc

Washington, November i4-Strong measures to uncover alleged violations of the law in the distribution of coal cars are to be taken soon by the interstate commerce comm isson.
 Orders calling for an investigation of of coal cars were entered on November 3, but commission officials explained to- day that the press of other business had prevented the beginning of the investi- gation.
 The investigation which will be made by Chairman Clark and Potter and Acki- son is expected to take the form of di- rect examination of the books and papers of the railroads and shippers prior to a hearing or the holding of a public hear ing at which such persons would be re- quired to appear as the commission might direct The latter course probably will be adopted, officials said, and a date will be set for the hearing as soon as the crowded condition of the commits sion's docket will permit
 Findings of the commission, it was ex- plained, will be published in the official report of the result of the investigation. Any developments warranting prosecution would be in the hands of the Attorney General. who would proceed on the basis of the report. Such practices as might come within the Jurisdiction of the com mission to remedy. however. would be made the subject of additional rules and regulations.

FIRST HEARING TODAY
Employers Cited for Violation of
 Court of Industrial Relations
By Associated Press

Topeka, Kan, November 14--The first hearing before the Kansas court of in dustrial relations at which employers are cited to appear on a charge of violations of the act prohibiting curtailment of production in an industry essential to public welfare Ito affect prices. is set for tomorrow when heads of seven To- peka flour milling concerns are to ap- pear as defendants
 According to court officials, the pro- ceedings originated with the court. and were not prompted by complaints of in- dividuals. The order stated that the court had information to indicate that curtailment of flour production existed throughout the state. Only Topeka mihers are cited in the present proceed ings however.
 Announcement is made by the millers that their defense will be a denial of the courts charge and a contention that 1t has been found necessary to curtail pro- duction flor sound business reasons. l" and not to affect prices; that the demand for flour has fallen off because the northwestern millers were able to manu- fracture flour from wheat purchased in Canada cheaper than Kansas wheat can be bought. and therefore can place the flour on the market a dollar barrel cheaper than the Kansas millers product.
