5 in Death House
W of MHuenSa

The influenza epidemic has
ruined the reputation of Sing
Sings death house as a sani-
tarium. Hitherto, the health Of
inmates has been uniformly good,
even if that condition was brief.
For the first time since the house
was built, in 1889, disease has Ell
tered the cell-bordered corridor
that ends at the little brown door.
Five murderers are down with
influenza. NJ ost grievously
stricken is Frank Ferrari, the
slayer Of Barnet BaF, whose exc
cution has been set for next Mon
day. This is the thirteenth time
that a date has been picked on
which Ferrari was to die. Each
time reprieve has saved him.
Others stricken are Frank
Kelly, the negro, who killed kath-
crime Dunn, in Brooklyn a few
weeks ago; William Walters, Wal
ter Levandowski and Paul Hart.
The law forbids that the men be
removed to the hospital, where
forty-tive criminals Of lesser de-
gree are now suffering from the
epidemic.

TRENTON, N. j., Feb "A resolu-
ton to ratify the suffrage constitu-
tional amendment was adopted tonight
by the New Jersey Senate almost with
out debate. A test vote taken in the
lower house indicated the resolution
would pass without fail when it comes
up there Monday.
Senator Mackay, who introduced the
resolution in the Senate. said twenty
seven states already had ratified, that
the amendment soon would be part of
the Constitution, and that New Jersey
had better get on the band wagon. The
only other speaker was Senator Pill
GRIM who urged the submission Of all
such questions to referendum. His
references to the propaganda of suf.
fragists and ti-sutfragists were taken
by his audience to be in opposition to
the resolution until he closed with the
words:
"And all of these things have led me
to decide to vote for the ratification Of
the amendment
The only Senators voting against the
resolution were Haines and Sturgess,

Treaty., Statement Says

PARIS. Feb. 2.-Formal denial of
or recognize the restoration of the
Hapsburg dynasty in Hungary was is
sued by the Council of Ambassadors
this afternoon. The statement said
such a restoration would be in direct
variance with the principles of the
peace settlement. The text of the
denial follows:
"The principal Allied powers feel
called upon to give most formal denial
of misleading rumors that have been
circulated to the effect that restora
tion of the Hapsburg dynasty would
be promoted or recognized by them.
THE principal Allied powers con-
slider such restoration Of dynasty
which to its subjects represented
system of coercion and domination, in
alliance with Germany. over other
states, would not be consistent either
with the principles for which this war
has been fought or with the results Of
the liberation of subject peoples which
have been achieved
while it is not the intention nor
can it be considered the duty of the
principal Allied powers to Interfere in
the internal affairs of Hungary or die
tate to the Hungarian people what
sort of government and constitution
they may think fit to adopt for them
selves, the powers cannot admit that

Price Cutting

Says Meredith
Elimination of Useless En-
ployecs and Speeding Up
of Industry Urged by New
Secretary of Agriculture
MoreProdllcersH Held Vital
Retailers and .Jobbcrs to Ex-
actOnly Reasonable Profit
Is Seen as One Solution

WASHINGTON, Feb. illumination
Of useless employees in productive
business. speeding up Of all lines of
industry commensurate with the pres
ent activity of the farmers, and deter
mination of retailers and jobbers to
exact only a reasonable profit were
recommended as a solution for the high
cost of living problem by Edwin T.
Meredith on taking the oath of Office
to day as Secretary Of Agriculture.
The high cost OF living problem, the
new Secretary asserted, cannot be
solved through the efforts Of one class
but all business and all labor must
recognize the solution as common
duty or "less and less will there be
of farm produce to divide among the
whole people and higher and higher
will go the price of that which is pro-
duced"
"The farmers Of America" said Sec
retary Meredith, ARE willing to assume
their part of the responsibilities as
American citizens in meeting any prob
lem threatening the welfare and sta
bility of our country, but this high
cost of living problem is a mutual one,
and they ask that it be approached by
all the people as a common problem.
Eliminate Lost Motion
They ask that those engaged in DIS
tributon eliminate the lost motion and
not put so great a burden upon pro
duction as there is upon it to-day.
In other words. they ask that there be
I" adequate number of producers OF
wealth. and this includes property and
Of .,11 l.
ber of distributors as is necessary to
perform the services required. They
ask that banks, railroads, Wholesale
houses, retail Establishments, factories,
ali of which are vitally necessary to
the farmer and recognized by him as
such, be speeded up along with him,
that the work now done by three men
may be done, if possible, by two, and
the burden of transportation and dis
tribution be thereby lightened.
"BusineSs men must look to the
matter in what line they may be en-
gagged, and see that no useless en-
ployee is retained to add to the cost
Of distributing what the farmer now pro-
duces. Useless employees must be re-
leased from non-productive work that
they may go into productive work and
add to the sum total that may be dis
tributed among all. Let us have six
tenths Of our people in production and
four tenths in distribution, that there
may be six-tenths of what a man can
produce each day for each of us, rather
than have fourt- -tenths in production
and six-tenths in distribution, which
gives us only four-tenths of what
man can produce each day for each
Of us.
Farmers Ask Cooperation
The farmer asks that the laborers
in the mines. the factory and the mills.
