Neutrality-suspicious. rebels are In
full control of the government. Mexico
City has been taken, as well as Vera
Cruz, In addition to Torreor, Aguas
Coltentes, Saltillo, Monterey and Mon.
c1ava, leading inland cities, and the
rebels have occupied Nueva Laredo,
the last of the border ports held by
Carranza. With the taking of these
cities the rebels control all of Mexico.
Carranza is a fugitive and is be-
lieved to be hiding in Vera Cruz. The
rebels have control of all the finances
and power Of government, and Wash
ington accepts the revolution as q
complete success.
Francisco Villa announces that he
will support the new government and
has turned his forces over to the
rebels.
An official statement from the State
department, announcing the occupa-
ton Of Mexico City by the rebels, was
followed by statement by the revo-
lutionary headquarters here which
claimed the success of the revolution
and asked the confidence of "their
neighbors, the American people,"
Appeals To Americans.
The new government makes the fol-
lowing appeal to the people of the
United States, through it's representa-
tives in Washington:
This is revolution initiated and
sustained solely by public opinion. It's
triumph has from the first been an as
sured fact, since even the army re-
fused to remain blind to the sinister
purposes of the Carranza administra.
ton, which has long been intent on
the establishment of corrupt dicta-
torship to endure for an unlimited
period.
In the accomplishment of the over
throw of ex-President Carranza, the
revolution has proceeded with the
least degree of violence; it has acted
with due regard for the restraining
hand of the constitution and the law,
and has committed no excuses. It
has endeavored, On all occasions, to
respect the rights of the citizen, what
ever his station, or his political affilia-
ton, and such will be the policy of the
new government to be installed in
power.
""The revolution does not promise
impossible things. Disagreements
may arise, disputes will doubtless &C.
cur, and reforms may be somewhat
delayed, but by means of a friendly
interchange of views on the part Of
leaders chosen by the people and by
the exercise of the same patience
and tolerance that has characterized
it's recent acts, the revolutionsts be-
lieve that bases Of reasonable COM
promise can invariably be reached.
I'm the promotion of this spirit and
policy, the leaders of the movement
are pledged to work in loyal co-opera-
ton and harmony, and they venture
to hope that the example of their
recent deeds will inspire confidence
on the part of their neighbors, the
American people, in their purposes
as to the future"

CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES
Labor Board Gets Results Of
Probe Into Profiteering.
Gives Many Instances to Show Excess
sive Profits are Fundamental
Cause Of Increased Prices.

Westinghouse study of protiteer1ng
in American industry, made under the
auspices of the: railway brotherhoods,
was presented to the Railroad Labor
board in support of the railway work
ers demands for higher pay and to re-
flute the charge that increased labor
costs are responsible for the high cost
Of living.
Prepared by w. ]. Lauck, former
secretary Of the war labor board, the
study seeks to show that profiteering
in industry is the fundamental cause
for high prices in practically all COM
modities. It gives many instances to
support that contention. -
Calling attention to the many war
made millionaires, the study contends
that three fold relationship exists
between high prices, profiteering ana
the addition to. the quota OF million.
aires," and that the increase in the
wealth of the wealthy is an ''unanswer-
able" refutation to all attempts to
charge labor with protiteering, and to
all attempts to hold labor responsible
tor the high cost OF living.
The result Of advanced prices, &C.
cording to the quoted reports of IL
companies producing over half of the
sugar consumed in the United States,
was pictured in the net profits of these
concerns, which it was said rose from
an average of $11,000,00O during the
years 1924 to $34,000,000 for the
years 1916-191S.
In the meat packing industry, where
profits were said to have increased be-
tween 300 and 400 per cent, the labor
item was shown so small that wage
increase of 100 per cent would add
less than per cent to the total cost
Of the meat.
Profits absorb approximately one
half the retail price of certain kinds
Of cloth, the report declared. while the
labor item amounts to from one
fourteenth to one-twentieth Of the
price. Similar relations were pictured
In the manufacture of mems gar
ments.
Shoes, according to the study, fur
nished splendid opportunity for the
profiteer." The profit items In 1914, it
was charged absorbed nearly one-half
the price paid by the consumer, or
nearly three times the total labor cost,
while in 1917 the profit items amount
ed to approximately three-fifths of the
total price and over five times the
total labor COST
Profiteering did not stop with the
armistice, the report declared, present
ing figures to show that corporation
profits in 1919 were 10 per cent over
the pre-war average which means, the
study added, that 1919 profits were
more than double the average for the
years 1924.
An average of $1,000 per family of
five during the years 1916-191S was de-
clared to be probably a highly conser-
vative estimate of the actual cost of
corporate profteering to the con-
sumner.
