posed by Majority as
Aid to Democrats.

June has been decided on as the
date for Congressional recess or ad-
journment. 1t has not yet been deh-
nitely decided whether a sine die ad-
journment will be taken or merely
a recess. June is the Friday be-
fore the Republican national con-
vention which meets in Chicago the
following Tuesday.
Efforts of some members to force
a complete adjournment seems GER
tain to fail, as that would mean that
the Republican Congress could not
meet before next December to at
tempt to counteract any political
Offensive of the President.
Champ Clark. Democratic House
leader. yesterday intimated that the
President might even refuse to al
low a recess of ninety days.
You know he might call us back
into special session during a recess"
Clark said.

WILSON SCORES

Legislative Bill Returned to

The legislative. executive and

an amendment placing control Of

this section that President Wilson
Iobjected to when he vetoed the bill.
Senator Reed Smoot. author of the
provision. objected to the action of
the President, saying he had been
misIed and that Congressional con-
troll of government publications was
necessary to prevent needless waste
of public funds and duplication. He
announced his intention to offer the
same amendment to the sundry civil
bill, which is now before the Senate
Committee.
This amendment is absolutely
essential" he said, ito provide for

Heavy Slashes
Made in Prices
ByD.C. Stores
Merchants Express Belief
That Reductions Will
Be Permanent.

The long awaited drop in the cost
OF living in Washington appeared
yesterday with the announcement by
a number of local department stores
and clothing dealers of heavy cuts
in the price Of clothing.
Most dealers attribute this price
to seasonal sales and an
overstock of goods due to an un-
usual slump in buying. but some say
they believe these price reductions
to be the beginning of a general
move in the direction Of lowering
the cost of living.
Banks in various parts Of the
country are said TO have been re-
sponsible for cuts" by forcing
creditors with an overstock of
goods to liquidate quickly, but no
evidence OF financial pressure in
Washington is indicated. Instead, a
healthy" reduction Of stocks at re-
duced prices appears at hand,
brought on in many cases by the
tendency of the public to stop "reck-
less" buying.
Believe Reductions Permanent.
Frank II. JelIeff. OF Frank r.
Jelleff. Inc, expressed the belief that
the present reductions are of a more
or less neruanapt poturo ,.S -,
alone the result OF a backward sea-
son or an oversuppiy.
The people of the country are
not buying" JelIeff said. 'and re-
tailers are not stocking up, fear
ing a break in the market The
manufacturers are seeking buyers
for the first time in >three years,
and the result is that retailers are
buying some articles at their own
krice.
There is, now an oversupply in
the wholesale market and IL II con-
tinues retailers will be able to die

WHEAT BUYING
RULES SOUGHT
Retiring Director Urges
Steps Be Taken Prevent
ing Market Disturbance.

Steps to prevent the disturbance
of the wheat market by reason of
the termination Of the United States
Grain Corporation on June 1. was
urged at a conference yesterday
held by Julius II. Barnes, retiring
as government wheat director. and
members OF the Cabinet. Congress,
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion and the railroadA
The prediction of great increases
in wheat prices, resulting from the
withdrawal of the influence of the
Grain Corporation was discredited
by Mr.. Barnes. "Prophesies at this
time of $40 flour and 25-cent bread
have no justification" he declared.
1T is well to remember that only
twelve months ago the same type
of apprehensive mind saw nothing
but a deprecated wheat price and
the loss to this government of
81 .OO0, ,000, 900 on the outstanding
pledge, which has since been re-
deemed without a dollar loss. I'm
less nature is more than normally
unkind between now and harvest,
North America will grow a crop far
exceeding the average yield"
Urges Large Credit Needs.
He urged that some provision be
made to furnish the country grain
marketing machinery and its large
credit needs formerly depending on
the security afforded by hedging
transactions in the principal grain
markets.
Warning was also given against
the depletion of the American wheat
market by heavy purchases here by
officials of foreign governments.
Unless We interpose some Amer
lean protection between a practical
! price dictatorship in the hands Of
foreign government officials whose
interests run counter to ours, We
may see during the crop moving
period the absorption of the Ameri-
can surplus at prices dictated un-
duly low.' said Mr.. Barnes. He
pointed out that this might result
| in the stripping of our market of
the accumulated surplus which may
measurably protect the summer
price at a later period.
without this security We face a
necessary re-adaptation of the mar
keting and credit machinery which
has learned to function on that Sc
curity.
Governments Are Buying.
The disorganization of Europe, he
said, forces the purchase of Euro
pean wheat supplies by foreign gov
eminent officials instead of through
private merchants.
In discussing the present freight
situation, Mr.. Barnes told the con-
ference that the lack of adequate
transportation is burdening our
whole credit structure.
He appealed for the prompt restor-
tation Of satisfactory railroad trans
portation conditions. 1t is urgent, he
said. thpt the crops be moved ex-
peditiously.
The conference involved no Ques-
tion of further regulation in price,
Mr.. Barnes stated.
