MANY MOURN DEATH
Passing Of Miss Soppoek In Shang

Shanghai, December 9[Correspond

many Of the near and remote centers
Of China as well as from other parts
Of the world messages of coincidence

Of Miss Grace L. Coppock who since

of the National Young Women's
Christian Association. 1t was held that
her passing on October Is takes from
China one of its greatest Christian

in twelve Chinese cities in which the

Recdjass-7 The Retail
Prices Federal Plan
Necessities of Life Specially
Mentioned; Up to State At
torney Generals
lAssociated Press Dispatch. ]


Washington, D. c., December 90
Aid of the attorneys general Of the
various states will be relied upon by
the justice department in an effort to
readjust retail perices Of the neoes-
sites, Of life, Attorney General
Daugherty said TODAY.
When the departments investiga-
ton of retail prices has been com
pleted, MIR. Daugherty said, it was
expected that the local authorities in
the different states would take the
necessary steps to remedy local sit
uations, while the department would
act in cases where there were VIOLA
tions of the federal law.
Mr.. Daugherty said he expected to
publish a table Of the cost of neces-
sities-food. fuel, shoes and clothing
to the consumer in different local
tiles as compared with the production
costs of these commodities In order
to bring to the attention of the public
any wide margin between these costs
found to exist. Publication of re-
tail prices as found by the depart
ment was expected by Mr.. Daugherty
to have a statutory effect upon prof
teering prices. Already the an
nouncemslit of the departments In
vestigation has had some effect. Pro-
tests have been received from retail
trade associations against the inves-
tigation, Mr.. Daugherty said, the de-
partment' attitude was that where
there was no violation of the law, no
association had cause for uneasiness.
Numerous cases of violations of state
laws have been reported, he said, but
federal prosecution would depend
upon violation OF anti trust laws. The
government, Mr.. Daugherty said,
wants merchants to make fair pro-
fit but was steadfastly opposed to
enormous or unreasonable profits.

Mrs. McDonough informed Mrs. Jacob

Mrs. McDonough that her husband

While Officer KacheImyer and Mrs

Harding today by Secretary Hughes
who went to the White House before
the naval committee met and was
closeted for nearly an hour with the
chief executive. The trend Of their
discussions was not revealed.
The American delegates attach a
great deaI Of importance to the Root
resolutions almost as much as they
do to the Root four point resolution
laying new principles for guidance
the powers in their dealings with the
Far East. Though unsensational in
appearance, the proposed. submarine
declaration, in the opinion of the
towards the movement to divest nav

humane feature.
A direct issue as to whether future
submarine warfare shall be conducted
under civilized rules was raised today
by the American delegates before
the arms conference naval committee
The American delegates urged adop-
ton Of the Root resolution and won
the support Of Great Britain, but the
French, Japanese and italian dele
gates urged reference OF the matter
to a commission of experts.
The Root resolutions which would
regulate use of submarines against
merchant craft, were the subject OF
spirited debate at the morning ses
sion Action on them WAS postponed
until further discussion could be had
at an afternoon session.

negotiations which will determine
whether it is to be successful in i'm

war craft except capital ships.
The immediate proposal before the
naval committee when il resumed its
session was a plan If the American
government to limit the tonnage OF
airplane carriers to he maintained in
the future navfes Of the rowers. 1t is
on this proposition and on proposals to
size Of individual warships of the
auxiliary classes that the American
delegation now pins it's hope of ampli-

yesterday attached a reservation al
