that every one of these men who have

Waterloo Times Tribune: The fact
that the present house is against mill
tary training does not establish that
the people are against it on principle
or that the next congress will be "a
eainst it. Stripped of words the reso-
luton means that, in view Of those
who attended the democratic caucus,
universal military service or training
should not be imposed on the country
at this time. For the present the
country is prepared. For the pres.
ent the country needs to cut down its
expenses to the lowest possible point.

UNFAIR METHODS

e. I. dupont de Nemours and Com
pany will file today with the Federal
Trade Commission a denial Of the
charge made recently against It. alleg-
il g unfair methods Of competition and
the use Of tying contracts. The com
pany denies that it has adopted the
practice Of giving gratuit.es to miners
as an inducement to influence them to
return competitors powder. in this
connection it states that for a number
of years pipes have been distributed
generally as an advertising novelty. but
they were not given nor were any other
gratuities given as an inducement TO in
fluence miners not to use blasting pow
der manufactured by competitors. The
company also specifically denies the al
legation that 10 fomented strikes in
mines where its powder was not used.
The reply points out also that the
contracts made by the company in The
Springfield coal field were not made
upon the condition that producers
should notuse powder manufactured by
competitors. but are simply contracts
10 supply those producers with powder

GENERAL MOTORS OUTLOOy.

Owing to the fact that not a sufficient
number Of holders of per cent. Cen
eral Motors debenture stock have sent
in their proxies, the recapitafzat!on
plans, which the directors planned for
the stockholders to ratify at a meeting
in Wilmington on December 80. have
been held in abeyaLce. Ratification Of
the plan calls for the asserting vote Of
30 per cent. Of the common stockhold-
ers, so per cent of the preferred stock
holders and 70 per cent. Of the deban-
ture stockholders. Considerably more
than so per cent Of the common and
preferred shareholders voted for the
plan, but about 10 per cent. Of the de-
benture proxies were lacking to put it
through. The debenture stock. OF
which about $4,000 900 is outstanding
Is widely distributed. Officials of the
company say that It is simply a matter
of getting in touch with some of the
stockholders who have neglected to

ndent that sufficient proxies will be on
