Republican leaders meeting In Chi
cago the day after the Democratic ma
tional convention, decided to make the
Illinois city the principal headquarters
of the party and to wage the campaign
largely west of the Alleghenies. The
nomination of Cox came as surprise
to the leaders as they had planned a
campaign against McAdoo. They an
nounced, however. that the issues
would not be materially affected the
chief fight being centered on the
League of Nations, with Democratic
conduct of the war and reconstruction
a secondary issue. 1t was also decided
to frown upon any attempt to intro
duce the wet and dry question into the
national campaign or to make the per-
sonality of the candidates prominent
factor. Independence of action, but at
the same time the fullest cooperation
between the national committee and
the senatorial and congressional com
mittees is planned. with the national
committee keeping out of all state
rows such as those in Illinois and Mis-
souri,. The well-known ability of Gov
ernor Cox as a campaigner may cause

announced intention to stick principal
ly to front-yard receptions. if the for

Announcement by the state depart
ment of the United States of the lift
ing of. trade restrictions with Russia
came Unexpectedly. Since Secretary of
State Colby had stated just before his
departure for San Francisco that no
is regarded as recently adopted pol
icy. The announcement expressly
states that no recognition of the soviet
government is implied and that indi-
viduals and corporations trading with
Russia must do so at their own risk
protection from consular authorities;
also that Inc post office department
will be unable 20 accept mail to soviet
Russia and that goods cannot be for
warded by parcel post. Materials for
war purposes continue under the ban
and the state department will continue
to refuse passports for Russia. The
announcement means in effect that
persons or corporations desiring to
trade with Russia may do so by deal
ing with soviet agents in the United
States or in other countries. The state
department warns American citizens
against the risks incident to the ac-
ceptance of commodities or other
values which may later be brought In
to question. 1t is explained that the
United States does not recognize the
validity of industrial or commercial
concessions granted by an existing
Russian authority.
As winding up of one of the prob
lens growing out of the war, over
$150,000,000 of property seized as en-
envy owned during the conflict, is now
ready to be returned under qualifica
lions provided for in the amendment
to the trading with the enemy act,
passed during the closing days Of the
last congress. Among those who may
obtain the release Of their property
are American women who married
alien enemies, enemy diplomats,
aliens who were informed, citizens of
new nations created from enemy terri
tory by the treaty of peace, women Of
allied or neutral countries who mar
ried enemy subjects, and Americans
who were forced to remain in Ger
many during the war. Property mis-
takenly seized will also be returned
and American creditors are permitted
to bring claims against enemy debtors
whose property was seized.
Reports of banditry, but on a
somewhat reduced scale, continue to
filter in from Mexico. On the other
hand come reports that Francisco Villa
has entered into On armistice with the
new government and agreed to cease
attacks OH trains, garrisons and towns.
This is in direct cOntraventiOn of a
manifesto issued 6 short time ago by
ten Of Vina's generals, including his
chief of staff, and number of civil
ians, that war or the new regime
would be continued. The burden of
the manifesto was that the Obregon
and De La Huerta government is the
product of a military coup and. at
tempting to establish itself with the
same passions, jealousies, ambitions
and mistakes as of old, will be impO-
tent to restore peace in the country.

MUCH LOWER BY
NEXT SPRING

This Is a message from Russell ]
Poole, secretary of the city H. C. O
| L, committee, to inform the man wht
writes loop hotel and restauran,
menus that the. war is over. After al
investigation of the prices charged
for vegetables in the loop yesterday
Mr.. Poole said:
Il feared the menu man had broken
his arm or gone on vacation, but
find he simply doesn't know the war
is over. Every time there was a
slight increase in wholesale prices
the price on the menu cards jumped
from 25 to so per cent. But now that
these vegetables can be had for al.
most nothing, menu cards read as in
war times.
! Corn is a good example. On the
cob it costs 25 and 80 cents an order
in hotels and the better restaurants
1t cost the restaurant keeper not
more than two cents an ear"
Investigating complaint of an
oyercharge on a prescription. Mr.
Poole's men canvassed six loop drug
stores asking for prices on the pre-.
scription in question. They were
surprised to learn that the price va.
ried from $1.25 to $3.75.
Mr.. Poole also warns that many
farmers who are turning their front
yards into vegetable stores to attract
fautomobilists are profteering, and
advises consumers to consult him by
telephone as to fair prices before
making purchases:
IF consumers will only refuse to
pay these piratical prices, prices on
fruits and vegetables, as we'll as pre-
scriptions, will come down where
they belong Mr.. Poole declared.
Good news for the man who can
worry along this winter with last
years suit was brought to Chicago
Yesterday by the 1000 delegates to
the annual convention of the Retail
Clothiers' Association of America.
Next spring mems clothes are slated
for drop of S3 1-3 per cent or more
in price.
In some instances, the slashing Of
woolen prices will be even greater,
according to Fred volland of Topeka,
Kan, national director of the associa-
ton.
There is bound to be a decided
reduction in prices by spring IL the
American public continues to refuse
to buy the higher priced woolens.

BRYAN MOTORS TO MIAMIA
FROM N. E.. WITH FAMILY
VIII Spend Six or Seven Months
There, as Climate Is Helpful
to Mrs. Bryan

The Miami Metropolis says:
After motoring the 1000 miles
from Asheville without one bit of car
trouble, Mr. and Mrs. William Jen.
|nings Bryan arrived in Miami last
night, accompanied by their grand
son, John Baird Bryan; their son, w.
]. Bryan, Jr., and two If his grand
daughters, Mary and HELEN Bryan,
and their nurse, Miss Hertzler. They
are back at the Bryan home, villa
Serena.
Commenting upon their trip home,
Mr.. Bryan said today that they came
in two automobiles and that they
were on the road seven days.
I'VE found some bad roads, and in
one place we were obliged to wait an
hour and one-half while men cut
down trees and constructed bridge
across a creek" Mr.. Bryan said.
When asked about Mrs. Bryans
health, he said that she is improving
slowly and that they have sold their
Asheville home since the climate
there does not agree with her. Next
to the climate at Hot Springs, where
Mrs. Bryan spent part of the sum-
mer, she finds the Miami climate
more helpful to her.
Mr.. Bryan spent the summer
months filling chautauqua engage
ments. He declined to comment up
on national politics, and concluded
his interview by saying that he was
glad to get back to Miami and that
he and the family expected to remain
here six or seven months.
