WASHINGTON, May IS Copyright,
1890. Entirely apart from the ques-
ton Of what the Republican National
Convention may do with the vOlum!-
nous report OF tho special committee
of policies and platforms, to-day may
be said to mark an epoch in tho evo {.
luton Of the party platform.
VIII Hays, Chairman Of the Repuo-
lican National Committee, ana mis-
right bower. State Senator ogden l..
Mills Of the New York Legislature.
came to town and exhibited 70 a room
full of Warrington correspondents
the result OF months Of research on
public questions. Later these two in
diYlduals submitted the twenty re-
ports Of their sub-committees to the
members OF Congress who are to he'll,
draft the Republican platform vt
Chicago.
The reports are in pamphlet form
and cover every subject OF import
ance except the peace treaty and
League Of Nations, planks on which
members OF the Senate are drafting.
The unofncial Platform Committee
conducted a mail canvass, sending a
printed form broadcast asking every
conceivable question. The queries
we're not phrased suggestively but in
way that would bring out a variety
OF answers.
PLATFORMS USUALLY MADE IN
EXCITEMENT AND HASTE.
II doesn't mako much difference
what anyone thinks OF the Rspub-
lpcan Party, or the views that have
been summarized in the big report
brought here by Win Hays as fair
reflection Of American public opinion.
But the fact Is that heretofore plat
forms have been mado In the excite
ment and haste Of committee meet
ings at the National conventions and
the conventions have usually adopted
plank after plank without much de-
bate. The assembly Is usually too
large to permit Of Iepgthy discussion.
Both the Republicans and Demo-
crNts have not inerequently been en-
barrassed by tho patchwork OF COM
mittees on platforms. Candidates
have had to stand on these platforms
when they usually had no part In
framing them.
The Republicans have introduced
a novel plan. They have attempted
TO use the months before the conven-
ton to get a true chart OF the desires
Of the electorate. Instead OF leaving
the subJect 10 members of Congress
who are often too close to legisla-
tive tangles to get good pcrspec-
tive, the Republican National Com
fnittee has gone TO the factory and
the farm, TO employer and employee.
Every delegate probably win have
copies OF the volume before the con-
venuon begins. '
The Democrats, OF course, point 20
the fptility Of the whole business, con-
lending that all the material can be
found in the daily newspapers and
magazines and that even II condensed
Into platform plnnks, the machine
politicians OF the Republican Party
will make the platform as innocuous
and inoftensiYe as possible.

old-fashioned housewife buy an old

the Chicago oBard of Trade, in re-
ply to the statement that "the price
of bread is about the only article
of food that has not declined"
During the war an accentuated
demand for bakers bread sprang up.
partly because the baker was more
expert in making an edible loaf
from mixtures. The housewife abs
continued buying bakers bread, be-
cause it is easier The baker con
tends that while ingredients have de-
clined, labor is higher than ever.

coal mines in operation than prior
to the war The commission said
however, that Of the 1854 coal
mines now in operation, 5 SSS are
small ones. Thus, over half the to-
tai number OF coal mines produce
less than two per cent Of the total
coal production of this country.
The demand for coal 70 expor,
ta'lon to Europa; countries has
bu,l unusually eyrat,' said tho re-
port, "and the bidding of foreign
buyers against each other and
against American consumers has
doubtless had u marked effect in in
creasng the demand for coal in this
country and to an even greater ex-
tent the price of free coal. Repeat
ed and insistent demands have been
made upon Us that we prohibit the
expectation of coal, especially to
European countries. Nothing has
been found in the law which author
ICES such action upon our part"
During the year the government
has leaned a total of $115,767,71O to
railroads, cf which S2S, 69S,745 was to
purrhase locomotives and cars, and
$29,27S,215 for other additions and
betterments $57,790,75O was borrow
ed from the government by railroads !
to meet maturing obligations.
The commission said that there is |
uncertainty whether the increased
rates of 1920 will give the railroads |
the guaranteed return on their valua
tion, because with regard to both
valuations and rates there are fac
tors not now ascertainable with ex
actness. 1T is therefore impossible
to speak with confidence as to re
suits until a reasonable period has
passed. the report said
The commission estimated that
5000, 100000 will be necessary TO
make good the government guaran
tee to the railroads for the six month
period after the ending OF Federal
control. However. this estimate is
acertain. because TO what extent
the maintenance, limitation and 9TH
ar adjustments will modify this loss
to the government we are unable TO
say at this time"
