Boston gong republican Tor the
second time in its history; New
York giving Harding an unheard-
OF plurality and ratios of two to
one ia many states give indications
of the proportions of the republican
slide which apparently left the
democratic candidate nothing but
the traditionally solid south.
This morning, twenty-four hours
after thf national balIoting began,
it appeared that complete returns
from all districts would not be in
for another day, but the trend of
these returns being reported gave
no indication of altering the stu
alton.
The reprbliean congressional
swing was as strong, increased ma
jorities in both Senate and House
being marked mp. Early today VIC
tory for virtually all fifteen re-
publican senators for reelection
was spelled by the returns, while
about a half dozen of the nineteen
democratic candidates were battling
against repubican leads.
The frst trial of woman suffrage
Contributed largely to the republican
maiorities, and also was factor in
delaying the count in many states.
The millions of women's ballots also
swelled the popular vote recorded
beyond all records.
Harding Given to Prayer.
Senator Harding accepted his VIC
tory without exuitation, stating that
he was more given to prayer to
God to make me capable of playing
my part" To Gov. Coolidge, the
next Vice President, he sent mes
sage stating:'
We've got real job. and we'll
tackle it together"
Gov. Cox also received his defeat

GRAND JURY STARTS
CyST OF LIVING TROBE
Evidence in Alleged Cases Of Frof-
teering Presented as Probable Cause
for Indictment.

Under instructions from Judge HamIl-
ton and with the guidance OF the United
States District Attorney Martin, the
grand jury yesterday commenced an IN
v%estigatiOn of the high cost OF LIVING IN
Porto Rico and charges of pro6teeliAg.
For almost one boar during the morn
ING the grand jurors were in the court
room listening to fhe charge OF Judge
Hamilton who txplainedfthe terms Of Che
Lever Act, commonly known as the Food
Control Act, and then retired 10 the jury
O to consider specific cha geS Ct pro
fiteerinq winch were presented ~ the
District Attorney.
In explaining the Lever Act, Judge Ha-
milton told The jurors that While Ire war
was at an end that war conditions still
prevailed and tt at b cause OF tha fact
the Food Control Bill was still in force.
He explained that the law was intended
to protect the PRODUCTION, transportation
and distribution of all necessarles a1d to
provide punishment for the crimes which
might be employed to prevent or interfere
with the production, transportation and
distribution OF ny articles as neces5arleS
by the law.
WAR CONDITIONS STILL EXIST.
Some people think the war IS over,
said the Judge, and while that is techni-
caliy true, it is a mistake to think that
war conditions do not still prevail. When
we get into a war. there are conditions
which develope OF which we have no con
troll. If the pres dent should sign a peace
proclamation, or if the Senate declCed to
ratify the peace treaty, that Wouio not

The Judge SAID that broadly speaking
there were two classes or clements cnleny
affected by the Food Con,rol Act, lnso-
far as production was concerned, anQ
thew we've capital and labor. lie sald
the law was impartial and that II applled

If you lind a sugar central on a mer-
chant keeping back goous from the mar
ket in order to increase their Valne, or II
thew are selling at an exc sSlVe proht,
said the Judge. that is 3 crime under
this law. # either a laborer or a capt.
taIist commits a crime he must be
brought here regardless of whether he
is a neon or the head of the biggest un-
dertakipg in this island.
IF you find, for instance, that a man
ufacturer is making something that costs
him 5 or IC cents to produce and that he
is selling il for twice that amount, he is
violating this law, he is profteerlng,
The JUDGE said that the LeVert Act
provided three different methods Tor
carving out the purpose OF the laN or
exercise control OF the ~prOduc1lon ana
distribution. The first meiilud was that
the President was authorized to take
over anv business for the Government
and to fix prices. The second method
was for the establishment OF trade com
missions TO control price and practlceS'
in a given business, while the third
method was the punishn ent OF VIOLA
.ors Of the Jaw which could be brought
about only by the action OF the Grand
Jury. He said chat the law was de-
signed to preveI t profteerlng and boar
ding Of necessalies or the ~monopoIlza-
