MASON GIVES REASONS
FOR LUMBER ADVANCES

That II is generally believed to be
wrong to arbritate present high pric-
es OF lumber 10. the declining timber
supply, 70 combinations in restraint
Of trade, or to 'profiteering. Is the
statement OF Maj. ID. T. Mason, head
Of the timbersection OF the bureau
OF internal revenue. In his recent
address before the second American
lumber congress In Chicago. Major
Mason goes on to say:
Greatly increased cost OF produc-
ton and the grneral credit imitation
would account for part OF the In
creased price, but IL appears 10 be
primarily a case OF the action or the
laws of supply and demand. supply
more or less reduced by shortage
and lowered efficiency of labor, short
er hours In many mills. bad weather
conditions In some parts or the coun-
try. coupled with unheard-of demand
has prompted lumber buyers to vie
with one another in Offering higher
and higher prices"
These conclusions have followed an
exhaustive investigation by the gov
ernment OF the lumber industry for
tax-valuation purposes.

FAIL TO FIND CLUE
TOPLATlNUM ROBBERY

Secret Service operatives and mem
bers of the local detective bureau ere
without clue that would lead to
the arrest of the burglars who enter
ed eleven rooms at the Bureau OF
Standards, Wednesday night, and
stole more than $4,000 worth OF
platinum.
The platinum, according to the po-
ice, was contained in table drawers
in the eleven rooms. These drawers,
1t is believed, were opened by dupii-
late keys, and then locked after the
platinum had Deem removed.
Police are of the opinion that the
thieves were familiar with the build
ing.
The robberies carried away practi-
,ally every platinum crucible and 9TH
err utensils made of that metal "a
veil as number of ingots and bars
Of platinum.
According to the estimate ma 10
today, the platinum was valued at
1O.SS6.5O. Palladium valued at $40
also was stolen.
None of the doors or desks had
been pried open, the police said to-
lay which would indicate that the
thieves probably used a masters
key. Detectives Mullen, Baur, Grant
and Vermillion have been assigned
% the case by Inspector Grant.

10CT. PHONE RATE
IN HOTELS BANNED
Utilities Commission Notifies
Chesapeake and Potomac Co.
To Cut Down Charges.

The practice OF some hotels in
charging 10 cents for telephone calls
will have TO be discontinued and the
rate returned 10 s cents. This was
the Eist OF a communication sent b.
the Public Utilities Commission to
the Chesapeake and Potomac Teis-
phone Company today.
This company was told that the
commission In granting permission to
continue the telephone rates allowed
during the war was under the Inn
preston that their order applied to
all rates. Secretary Allen said today
he had failed to ind any hotel tarifY
rates IN the tariffs submitted by the
phone company.
we have sent letter to the com
pany." said Mr.. Allen today, calling
attention to the fact that the COM
mission believed the order continued
all rates. We have asked the com
pany to submit to US the present rates
charged in hotels and also requested
that they inform us to what extent
they are enforcing the rates set dur
ing the war for hotels"
In some hotels n scent charge Is
made, but in many the cost Is 10
cents. Ii appeared today the COM
mission would not tolerate any high
charge and that II would take the
necessary steps TO prevent rate in
excess OF 5 cents.
Decision to write to the company
on this matter was made at a recent
meeting OF the commission.

The Americanization movement was

to consider means for building up
strons community organisations.
Mr.. Lane was Obliged to be absent
from the conference, but he sent a

two needs OF grave import confront
the nation In the present hour. We
need TO develop a more tboughtful
and interesting citizenship capable OF
considering. discussing. Weighing, and
making a wise decision In all matters
affecting the common veal. We need
to ind ways OF crystallizinE this pub
lie sentiment and OF translatins II

munity. Good or Ill to one means good
or III to all. To organize that realiza.
tion effectively. to make IL the COM
mon ground on which we debate and
solve our differences, seems to me the
most immediate and dramatic task
confronting us. We need as a people
to emphasize the common interests
which bind us together.
"There are divisions in our national
life, let us recognize them all
economic, social. political. racial,
whatever they may be-let us examine
them, weigh them. and md solutions
for them. But let us remember that

The case OF the alleged German spy

the examination OF Mrs.. Coralic M.
Cook. colored member OF the B,ard
of Education before the Senate In

against her.

mo charges have ever been made
with the Board OF Education against
Miss Hunter, despite our repeated ro-
quests, that such charges be brought
TO our attention." she said.
Senator Harrison expressed amaze
ment that any member of the Board
OF Education should attempt to de-
fend Miss Hunter after the trial and
conviction Of Moons.
Measuring her words carefully, and
trying to define her exact attitude
toward Miss Hunter, Mrs. Cook said:
1T Is nothing less than n tragedy
that woman OF my race cannot be
treated with courtesy or with a spirit
OF friendship by a man of your race
without having that attitude miscon-
strued by members of both races"
The witness, who stated that she
had known Miss Hunter for more
than twenty years, labored under
such emotion on the stand that Sena-

Against the unsparing revelations
of allegations concerning Miss Hunt
er's character by Senator Harrison,
Mrs. Cook put up a strong defense in
defining exactly the Board OF Educa-
tons attitude.
She made 1t clear that she believed
that none OF the charges against Miss
Hunter had ever been proved; that
the Parents League had ignored an
invitation to present its case to the

Hunters guilt In the Moons case
could largely be summed up In the
word "indiscretion."
Miss Hunter came TO me and
stated she had been deceived in
Moens," said Mrs. Cook. She explain
ed the details OF the conversation In
which Miss Hunter explained her side
of the case.
"Did the Board OF Education allow
Miss Hunter to teach in the public
schools for a month after the charges
against Miss Hunter were going
around everywhere In Washington

colored member OF the board, inter-
vened I osay that the Board Of Educs-

OF a request from the Department Of

Mrs. Cook emphasized the fact that
the Board of Education could not be
accused OF having been dilatory in
Diminishing Miss Hunter from the
