STILL IS UNCHECKED
Middle Glasses Indignant at
Prices Asked in Shops.

ROME, Jan. 16.--The italian middle
classes, whose incomes remain substan-
tally what they were before the war,
IRE angrily resisting what they de-
nounce as the Outrageous prices for
necessities exacted by profiteers." The
scenes Of Indignation which occur In
some Of the stores of Rome show the
exasperation of the consumers.
One man who was asked the equiva-
lent of SEA for a pair of shoes told the
shopkeeper: Burglars who enter your
house and rob are not the only holdup
men In this town. You come I'm the same
category" Another man when asked
the equivalent of $40 for hat told the
shopkeeper that he was the manufsct-
urer of the hat and had sold It to the
dealer for $40. He called the retailer
"a robber"
Lately the shopkeepers have been
compelled to mark the prices in plain
figures on every article in the shop
windows in the vain hope that trades
men would be ashamed to ask exorbi-
tant prices. The only effect apparently
has been to level prices upward instead
of down.
