MARSHALL GIVES KEYNOTE
 SPEECH AT INDIANAPOLIS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. May 20.-- Equal and exact justice to all as remedy for industrial unrest was prescribed by Vice-Presldent Thomas R. Marshall in the keynote speech at the Indiana State Democratic con- vention today. He also expressed hope that President Wilson and the Senate would reconcile treaty differ ences and bring about ratification of the peace treaty.
 This was an American war and peace should be an American peace" said the Vice-President. While the Prohibition Amendment remains it must be enforced, if public senti- ment is not behind it," continued MT. Marshall, people will find lawful way of of lessening its ri- gors." .
 He urged restoration of freedom of speech and of the press. and the punishment of those seeking to overthrow the government. He de- clared ex-service men could obtain almost anything they wanted from Congress.
 Unqualified endorsement to the altruistic views of President Wilson" also was voiced.

PRICE CUTTING
 WAVE SWEEPING
 ENTIRE NATION
Wearing Apparel of All Kinds Being Offered at 20 to 50
 Per Cent. Reduction
REACTION IS PREDICTED
Merchants Say Movemen, Will Be Futile With High
 CT Prices to Come

CHICAGO, May 20.-The wave of price cutting in retail merchandise prices, first reported two days ago from points west of Chicago, today was sweeping over the entire coun- try, gathering momentum in the way of still deeper cuts as 1t pro- gresses.
 Many large manufacturers and merchants assert the movement will be short-lived and futile so far as effecting any real reduction in the high cost of living, resulting in greatly increased prices when the reaction sets in, but all are amazed at it's present magnitude and some frankly admit they dare not guess where it will stop.
 Wearing apparel, both mems and women's, including shoes, ready-to- wear suits and silk garments, is be- ing offered in widely separated parts of the country at prices represent ing twenty to fifty per cent. reduc- tion over those prevailing week ago.
 In New York and Philadelphia, John Wanamaker. multi-millionaire department store owner, with huge stores in each city. has announced straight cut of twenty per cent. in prices of all goods. He will spend $1,000,oD0 each week in purchase of sirable goods, he announces, paying spot cash on day of delivery. ,n order that the price reduction may be continued.
 Shoe manufacturers in Boston, center of the industry. report their orders. largely made weeks in ad- vance of delivery, have not been af- fected by the movement as yet but state there is well-defined ten dency on the part of both dealers and the public toward conservatism in purchasing. There is not the same avidity as formerly in the buying of the higher priced goods. they say, although the demand for shoes of medium grade and medium price is holding its own if not in- creasing. is

ARE
 GETTING READY
 FOR PULP MEN
Men in Field Blocking Out Areas of Suitable Timber;
 Cruisers Coming Soon

The United States Forestry Blu reau is prosecuting the work oi blocking out areas of lands contain ing timber suitable for the manufac' ture of wood pulp and paper with all possible dispatch. At the pres ent time B. F. Heintzman, of the Portland office, is engaged in block in gout and defining for the cruis CTS large areas of timber lands. On one of the early boats to arrive from the South there will come a force of cruisers to go over the land, and estimate the standing and dead timber. MT. Heinstzman has been engaged already in this work for the land two or three weeks, and said today that he expects to devote the entire summer at it.
 The lateness of the season is re- tarding the work the Forestry Blu reau has laid out for the present summer in Alaska" said MT. Mintz- man. 'The quantity of snow that is still in the forests is unprece- dented for this period of the season When one gets from the shore a short distance now he finds snow from three to four feet deep in many places"
 MT. Heintzman is making par ticular survey of Admiralty Island and he says there are numercus large areas on that island, in the vicinity of Young's Bay, GambieI Bay and along the west shore that contain excellent timber that is par ticularly valuable for wood pulT and paper manufacturing purposes
 MT. Hintzman says the Forestry Bureau is being flooded with inquir' ies from persons desirious of get. ting into the paper and pulp busi' ness in Alaska. Many applications are being made for timber areai and water power sites.

HOUSE APPROVES
 SOLDIERS BONUS

WASHINGTON, May 20.-Follow- ing caucus late yesterday. Repub- lican members of the House today came out squarely for enactment of soldier legislation as advocated by the American Legion.
 The caucus refused by a vote of 142 to 49 to postpone indefinitely of Treasury David F. Houston. A letter from Houston, flatly opposing any special bonus, however financed, was read at the caucus. Houston stated it would be highly unfor- tunate' at this time to place new financial burdens on the United States Treasury.
 Veterans Given Choice
 The proposed bill, as agreed to by a majority of the Republican members of the House Ways and Means Committee and laid before the caucus by Representative Jos eph w. F'ordney of Michigan, chair man of the committee, would give each veteran of the world war choice of a cash bonus, home and farm aid, paid-up insurance or vo- cational training.
 Under the bill compensation for home service is fixed at. $1 for each day of service while payments for foreign service would be at the rate of $125 a day. Payments would be made for service from April 6, 1917 to July 1, 1919.
 Payments Quarterly
 Payments of the cash bonus would begin April l, 1921 and be con- tinued in twelve quarterly install ments. The four options for the cash bonus, home or farm aid, paid up insurance and tuition for educa- tion, would have forty per cent increase in value over the cash bonus under the substitute measure.
 Taxes levied by the bill would become effective next December and would include the increase on in comes, tobacco and real estate sales and new levy on stock and grain exchange transactions.
