WILSON DENIES BARUCH AND
 RYAN HAD ANY PART
 IN FIXING PRICES

WASHINGTON. March 1.-Prest- dent Wilson today denied charges made in the house by Representative Mason, republican, Illinois, and others that B. M. Baruch and John D. Ryan had profited out of the government as a result of the fixing of the price of copper during the war.
 Writing to Representative Garrett, democrat, Tennessee, the president characterized the charges as ire sponsible gossip" and expressed his great confidence" in MT. Baruch and MT. Ryan.
 There was not a suggestion of scan dal connected with either of these gen. tlemen in war activities in which they played so important part, he wrote. And I wish to say how admirably and how unselfishly they devoted their fine talents to the government Tn every crisis which facd us during tn war"
 Tn president said neither MT. Ba- ruch nor MT. Ryan had anything to do with the fixing of prices, and added:
 'The price of copper was fixed solely by me upon recommendation Of the war industries board and the federal trade commission, after full examina- ton into the costs of production and without any attempt upon the part of the copper producers or NIT. Baruch or MT. Ryan to exert any pressure upon this government or upon any body connected with either of the boards having to do with these vital matters"
 In opening his letter, the president said that the charges and intimations against the men had been shdsfactor- ily answered, but that g. statement by him as to the price fixing might fur ther clarify the situation"

March 1.-Charges of the needless slaughter of American. troops on Armistice day" are made and denied in majority and minority re ports made public today by Republican and Democratic members of a house subcommittee on war expenditures Representative Johnson. Republican South Dakota, himself a soldier. is chairman of the sub committee and prepared the majority report.
 Although this report was formally adopted last week by Republican mem oers of the Graham general investiga- tion committee with Democratic mem bers dissenting, big row has devel- oped and a meeting has been called for tomorrow to give it further considera- tion. The report was released for pub lication by MT Johnson and the report to be submitted later to the house by Chairman Graham may be changed. Unless sections relating to Armistice day slaughter are eliminated, MT. Ora - ham indicated Republican members. like the Democrats. would present a minority report.
 The minority report was prepared by Representative Flood, Democrat. Virginia, who called attention to the refusal of the Graham committee to approve a report made by Chairman Johnson and Representative Bland. Republican Indiana. As the sub committee was directed to investigate war expenditures abroad MT. Flood contended it went beyond it's province in attempting to criticise and condemn l fighting orders of General Pershing.

THOMAS ATTACKS SOLDIER
 BONUS PROPOSALS
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The sol dier bonus bill was attacked today by Senator Thomas, democrat. Colorado. as "sordid, mercenary. humiliating, outrageous and illegal"
 In a minority report presented to the senate as a member of the finance committee, he said the operation of the bill would entail cost of three and a half billion dollars and result in de- preciation of Liberty bonds and other securities and be a great burden to the taxpayers.
 The country is in no condition to submit to this stupendous financial obligation which this bill imposes" he declared. Tt is outrageous. Justice should. of itself, defeat the bill. There may be such a thing in this country as a taxpayers strike. This bill sub ordinates duty to the sordid and de- grading influence of pelf and profit, makes the army an agency for the ex- tortion of money from the citizen and places the republican soldier on level with the mercenary soldier of fortune or adventure"
 Senator Thomas praised the spIen- did segment of the late American army which disdains to ask for bonuses or compensation.
 Patriotism. devotion to free insti- tutions, and a decent regard for the
 
 said. "are degraded and disgraced whenever the soldier citizen becomes a mercenary and either expects or de- mands that his government should measure his services in terms oi money
 If the American nation has been preserved from German aggression only to loose the floodgates of its treasury upon its returning soldiers, il Is serious question whether 1t was worth while to safeguard the country from its enemies only to be plundered by it's citizens"
 Declaring that most of the veterans would take the cash bonus. Senator Thomas said the other options of the ha were comparatively unimpor- tant."
 The plan for reclaiming land for sol dier homesteads, he charged, would result in numerous land schemes and promotions"
 They will have ample political backing" he added. 'I know of no pork 1 barrel scheme more alluring an6 | fraught with more extravagance and reckless expenditure than this" The tax plan provides for taking money from the pockets of one class oi citizens to be transferred to another said the senator. adding that in strlk- ing out the tax provision. the senate finance committee "shrank from the esponsibility.'

11O MEMBERS IF. CEMENT TRUST
 ARE INDICTED IN. NEW YORK PROBE.
[RepubIican A. p. Leased WIre]

IT
 NEW YORK, March lone hundred and ten cement dealers were named in indictments handed down today by the special federal grand jury which has been Investigating an alleged building material combine mentioned in connec- tion with the building trust inquiry.
 The indictments aliege that the ice ment combination has formed asso- citations and bureaus throughout the country ostensfbly to quote prices as to completed transactions and for the pur pose of recommending" uniform trade practices. The evidence indicates, the indictments said that the ostensible purposes of these associations are merely sham and that the so-called quotations of past transactions are used as a means of fixing a common price
 The government alleges that the combination had been brought about through activities of the five or six dominant cement companies, and that their influence in the trade has been so great as to make it easy either to persuade or coerce the other cement companies to follow their lead.
 The government accused the Cement Securities company, a western concern, of monopolizing it's industry in the Rocky Muntain states and dominating the mills in California, the northwest and Texas This company, government representatives said recently merg d with the Portland cement company. The indictment papers further charged that inspectors are employed by the cement manufacturers to see that no builder contracts for more than l he actually needs.
 'The building industry is always kept cement hungry" the indictments con tinue, price raising is never embar- rassed by a surplus supply of cement, for no cement can ever be found except 1 in the manufacturers bins or probably weak supply in the hands of dealers. :. 1 Similar tactics were employed with cement dealers, who are not allowed to contract for a future period exceeding 15 days. the indictments charge.
 The following Denver Colo, com panies were indicted:
