RE TA|LERS NOT
KEEP INC PRICES
HIGH, IS CLAIM
(By The AssocIated rress.l

Omaha, Neb., Dec. 23.-Charles
Henry Macintosh of Chicago,
president. of the Associated Adj
vertising Clubs of the World, told
the Omaha Chamber of Commerce
today that an understanding
among retailers tending to keep
prices high, such as referred to
yesterday by Attorney General
Daugherty in his call for a price
investigation, could not exist to
any practical extent"
"One hundred percent organiza-
ton is not possible" said he "in
any trade, industry or branch OF
commerce in which there are large
numbers of individuals and moth
ing less than 100 per cent organi-
cation among retailers could hold
prices at an abnormal level. The
failure of even two or three re-
tailers in an entire city to Coop
crate in such an endeavor would
automatically nullify the combina
ton of all the rest, since the buy
ing public naturally goes where its
money will buy the most, and the
trade of any town would gravitate
into the hands of the merchants
who kept themselves out of en-
tangling alliances"
AS an Inevitable result the
merchants in the alliance would
be compelled to meet competition
or close their doors for lack of
customers.
ut would seem logical to look
for combinations In restraint of the
law of supply and demand in
quarters where effective comblnu-
tons are possible--such as in
highly organized and closely spe-
cialiZed branches of production
rather than among the loosely knit
factors Of distribution"

IF, taking an extreme case, one
might consider 1t possible to bring
one adversary to point of yield

be less cruel and less wasteful of
human life than military opera

same result by direct application
of force" Admiral de Bon in
quired, zone might protest
against this interpretation, but
such would be the result of a
blockade which is a legitimate

Submarine Is Useful.
Admiral de Bon insisted that the
submarine was useful against both
war and commercial fleets and in
the opinion of the French dclega-

As the conference was "occu-

pressing effect on Mrs. Tarpey.

the robbery in Berkeley Square
OF jewels from Messrs. London g.
Ryder" said the detective.
His patience had been rewarded!
Shore Complimented!
Three months after his wife had
undergone her terrible ordeal at the
Old Bailey Tarpey faced judge and
jury, and, strangely enough, he was
defended by the same counsel, Mon
tague Williams. But the clever law
yer had not the heart-appealing ar
guments this time which he had in
the case OF the accused wife, and in
fact. the only plea he could put up in
mitigation of the inevitable sentence
was that part of the jewels of the
robbery had been recovered, though
the majority had been sold in Ans
terdam by Tarpey when he had
bolted to Holland.
1t transpired at the time that Tar.
pey and his wife had been very hard
up, and had been at their wits ends
to obtain money. One day they cas-
ually read story OF diamond rob-
berry planned on very similar lines to
the one they carried out, and they de-
cided to translate fiction into fact.
The robbery had been carried out
with such GOODNESS and method that
Inspector Shore fully expected to
find Tarpey an old hand at the game,
and he was rather surprised to find
that this was his first attempt at rob-
berry.
He was cool hand, however, as
the following will show: After his
trial he had the nerve to write to the
firm he had robbed and apologize,
saying that he originally intended to
rob another jeweler altogether! He
was left to kick his heels in prison
for eight years and to reflect on how
the best laid schemes go wrong, es-
precially when man like John Shore
is on the track!
Douglas Straight. the prosecuting
counsel, in his address to the jury
took the unusual step of calling at
tention to the remarkable patience
Inspector Shore had shown in track
ing down Tarpey after his wife had
been acquitted and when most people
had forgotten the amazing robbery.
