NJ NARY To FIND
OUT WHY CAS- IS
So HICH-PR|CED
Chairman of Senate Com
mittee Believes an Under
standing Exists Between
Leaders of Oil Industry

Washington, Aug. 10.--Actlng
Chairman McNary of the senate
manufactures committee, it was
announced today, has decided to
call head officials Of many of the
larger oil companies who can talk
about the inside Of the oil indus
try" as the next step in the sem
ate's investigation of gasoline
prices.
Senator McNary said he was de-
terminedto have relevant facts in
stead of sitre issues" in the COM
mittee record.
The investigation would show.
Senator McNary said, whether
there is actual competition, for
instance, among the units of the
Standard Oil groups" He believ-
ed also, he added, that the dues-
tion of whether there is IAN un-
derstanding or what amounts to
an understanding, between selling
companies as to the 'antics 9aso-
line prices shall perform"
Monopoly Suspected.
The committee has heard in the
last four days, r. l.. Welch, secre-
tary of the American Petroleum
Institute, and John d. Clark, vice
president of the Midwest Refin-
ing company.
Both gave testimony which the
chairman said he regarded as
"highly interesting and frankly Of
fered," but stated. that it did not
"get anywhere in the committees
plan" Consequently the commit
tee adjourned today to meet again,
probably early next week. when 1t
is proposed to call witnesses from
the ranks of the companies high
officials. In addition to the sub
jects mentioned, Senator McNarY
explained that the committee
would inquire into the makeup ot
the big companies, the names ana
natures of their subsidiaries, Their
capital net returns and overhead
expenses the personnel and salaries
Of the directorates and details as
to the trade practices. He declar-
ed that it was common report that
some producers holding near
monopolies on small fields had re-
sorted to choking wells in order
that the production could be held
down and the market "buoyed.'
In this connection Senator Nc
Nary called attention TO state
ments today OF Mr.. Clark TO the
effect that production of the
Rocky mountain field, where his
company operates, was not full
capacity. Mr. Clark said this was
because the refiners could not DIS
nose Of the crude oil as rapidly
as it was offered, but Senator NC
Nary said he thought that In some
cases the practice might be move
to compel higher prices on finish
ed or refined products.

FIRST COAL SHIPPED
UNDER ARMED GUARD

Staunton, Ind, Aug. 10 (by the
Associated Press) The first coal
to be shipped out of the two strip
mines here being operated under
protection Of state troops, went out
today when six carloads were
hauled under armed guard to a
main line railroad and started I
their way to state institutions.
Union railroad trainmen refused to
touch the cars until they were out

had to be switched to the trunk

XII kL.UX LEADER
CQLLAPSES upon
FLOOR Of COURT
Nathan A. Baker, Formerly
Kleagle, Overcome BY
Mental Strain at Trial
Where He's Defendant.

Los Angeles. Calf, Aug. TO-
The trial of 81 reputed members
Of the Ku KluX Klan, alleged to
have participated in a raid at
Inglewood last April, halted alb
ruptly today when Nathan A.
Baker, former kleagle for Los
Angeles county and one Of the
defendants. collapsed in his chair
and was carried in a stretcher
from the court house.
Baker was the admitted leader
of the raiders. His explanation of
the affair, made public before
the trial, was that he was acting
as an officer of the law in an
attempt to secure evidence Of the
violation of the prohibition laws.
Bernardo Elduayen, Spanish
girl of 13, was /on the witness
stand and had just related that
she was aroused on the night
of the raid by masked men
coming into her room and that
she and her sister, Maria, 16,
were forced to get up and dress
while. the intruders remained in
the room. She said her father,
F'idef and her uncle, Mattias
Elduayen, had been taken from
the house. She thought when a
series of shots were fired that
both were killed. she said. Some
Of the shots were fired by Mar
shall Frank T. Woerner of Ingle-
wood, in an attempt to break up
the raiding party, and one fatally
wounded constable, M. B. Mosher,
one of the raiders. The girl had
just completed her recital of these
incidents when Baker, who ap-
parently had been listening intent
ly, gasped and slipped from his
chair.
Baker Calls Friend. .
Baker called out:
Gus! Where is Gus?"
G. w. Price. former king
kleagle of the khan for California,
came to the couch and said:
Here / am"
That's not right, Gus; it's not
right" easped Baker.
Baker was removed to the city
receiving hospital, where physic-
ians said his trouble appeared to
be entirely mental" brought on
by nervous strain. Several weeks
before the trial he had a some-
what similar collapse and was
placed in the psychopathic ward
of hospital for observation. !
Last Thursday when he came
into court late and was asked
for an explanation, he told Judge
Houser he had ''peen up all night
working in the interest of the
court"
A recess taken when Baker fell
was continued until tomorrow
morning.

HARDING s PLAN
URGED ON UNION
AND RAIL- HEADS
Chairman Hooper of Labor
Board Intimates This is
the Object of Conference
Tomorrow.

Washington, Aug. 10.-Nearly all
the officials of railroad unions who
will participate in tomorrow's con-
ference over President Hardings
final proposal of a basis for settling
the strike, were in Washington to-
night and had completed survey
of the situation as presented to
them by leaders of the seven shop
| craft organizations actually on
strike. The only exceptions were
the heads of the four brotherhoods
| of train service men, who are eX-
pected to be at hand by 10 o'clock
tomorrow, when the general meet
ing is scheduled to begin.
Ben w. Hooper, chairman of
the railroad labor board, who also
arrived in Washington today, called
upon President Harding and later
got in touch with union spokesman
1t was understood that Mr..
| Hooper's efforts were to persuade
union leaders to accept the pres
ident's offer, which suggested that
the strike be called off, the men be
taken back in service by the rail ..
roads and the question of their
seniority status be dealt with by
the board.
White House Hopeful.
The White House was the source
| of intimations today that the eX-
ecutives could be expected to ac-
cept the presidents solution, after
their meeting at New York tomor-
row. Strike leaders, however, were
apparently unchanged in their at
titude of opposition, although b.
| NJ. Jewell, chairman Of the strik-
ing group, said they would not
make a response until after the
general meeting, and added that
1.-THE meeting could hardly reach a
| decision before Saturday. He re-
pudiated an entirely unfounded
Suggestion that the shopcraft un-
lions expected sympathetic strikes
from the other transportation or
ganizations, but left the impression
| that sympathetic action was eX-
pected. His group was constantly
lin session in meetings to which Of
| ficers OF the unions on varlohs
eastern railroads were occasionally
ADMITTED.
Want United Action.
The delay in responding to the
president, Mr.. Jewell said, would
be due to the necessity of getting
lunanimity and the expression of
loplnion by all the union officials
invited. He intimated that the
strike would Tighten up" when
ever the peace talk" stopped, ex-
planning that the number of pickets
around shops would be increased
and general agitation resorted to by
the strikers.
More kilograms were made pub
lie from the rail unions, demanding
that the union chiefs reject the
presidents offer. Mr.. Jewell stated
THAT these messages had been unan
imous to date in expressing this
view.

Luncheon Desserts.

Good things for dessert for lunch
con should really be rather simple to
make. for nobody has toe much time
in the morning. And 1t Is rather
waste of time to spend many minutes
over the making Of the luncheon des-
cert
Here are some that are not too con-
Stunning of time and that are also
delicious:
Apple Tarts-Butter slices of bread
thickly and either brown them a
little on both sides in the gas stove
toaster, or else brown them In
skillet. Then place them in drip
pies. peeled. cored and cut In quart
ers and stewed until tender but not
shapless. Over all sprinkle plenty
Of brown sugar and cinnamon and
cook in the oven for ten or fifteen
minutes.
Tart shells of any kind are an ex-
cellent foundation for luncheon des-
sert. Make them in q batch when you
make pie and have them on hand.
Filled with Jam or jelly they are al
ways a good dessert. Or you may
fill them with half a canned peach
with whipped cream or soft custard
and serve them for a delicious des-
sert.
Boiled rice served with sauce made
of butter and brown sugar or with
nutmeg cream-cream sweetened and
sprinkled generously with grated nut
meg-tkis is a dessert worth eating.
Homemade charlotte russo, made
of whipped cream and lady fingers.
Or dessert of canned fruit poured
over lady fingers and macaroons
crumbled together and topped with
meringue or whipped cream.
Sliced oranges sprinkled with
shredded cocoanpt Drowned delicately
in the oven.

LISTEN, WORLD!
BY ELSIE ROBINSON.

I can't for the life O. me see why
they're making such a >clatter about
short skirts and stripped styles in
general. Do you remembeT when you
were a kid and were forbidden to look
into some special drawer or box? And
how, as soon as you grew high
enough, you headed straight for that
drawer o. box and looked in? And
probly only found moth balls? Well,
that's exactly what has happened to
the human race-and If we had sense
enough to let the fever run its course,
it would work out just as it did when
we were children.
For tantalizing centuries we've
been forbidden to look" and our
women have gone about swathed in
crinoline, hair cloth, alpaca and other
insulation so that no one could get
a peek. And then suddenly the war
tumbled US out of our childhood's
prohibitions into amazing. freedoms
and at once we began looking.
Forthwith we've busted open all the
forbidden drawers and boxes and
we're spilling out the contents on the
floor-spilling them out in sensa-
tional books, movies, plays, social
movements. dances, fashions. And
what do we find after all? Nothing
but the same old humans with the
same old hearts and legs!
I have always felt that the real
trouble did not start when Eve ate

The Chinese Sleeveless Jacket
BY ANNE RITTENHoUsE.

1t was Madeleine ct Madeleine who
struck the Chinese note more clearly
in their late winter collections than
did any of the other dressmakers.
Not only did the Madeleines make
use Of Chinese embroideries, but they
showed their mannequins with hair
done sleek and smooth IN Chinese
fashion and with Chinese pins thrust
through it.
Moreover, in their version of the
bolero. much talked about as re-
vival in many of the collections. they
inclined to the lines of the Chinese
coat.
There is nothing symbolic or sig
nificant in this Chinese spurt by the
Madeleines, nor in any other sugges-
tion of Chinese lines or decorations
elsewhere 1t is simply done by way
of necessary variety. In season
pledged so early to soft drapery of
the Greek, or the close swathing of
the Moyen-age period, any decided
or general trend towards the stin
formality of the Chinese silhouette
would be out of the question.
Still, just by way of variety, the
bolero of Chinese suggestion Is de-
lightful. 1t Is a straight, lined suH
affair that extends from an upstand-
ing collar line to line little be-
low the hips.
In the sketch you may see how this
type Of bolero has been interpreted
with short sleeves. 1t is bound with
plated white braid-a trimming that.
of course, lacks Chinese precedence.
The material is navy blue crepe. 1t
is worn over frock of white linen
|Aawn embroidered in blue and trimmed
with white founces.
There is no reason to be surprised
at the extremity short sleeves of this
little jacket. Nor Is it surprising that
1t is worn over a sleeveless frock.
You may have imagined that-just
because the leading dressmakers in
Paris have shown numbers of very
long sleeves, long and flowing, long
and clinging, long and bell-shaped-
the very short sleeve is entirely
passe. This is certainly not the case.
and the woman with an arm that is
slender but still gracefully rounded.
can find excuse enough to reveal it
by day as we'll as by night And. of
course, gloves are as unnecessary
now with the short-sleeved frock as
ever.
However, the Madeleines have set
the fashion for mitts of net or lace.
and most of their very short-sleeved
afternoon frocks have mitts of this
sort to go with them.

Broadening the Shoulders.

Most women will say that they do
not want to be broad shouldered. the
broad d-shouldered woman is not sup
pesed to be beautiful. The broad
woman is, however. heal
thy and it is quite possible to have
shoulders that arc much too narrow.
l pass dozens of girls every day who
need this new exercise l an, describ-
ing.
used to broaden shoulders is by means
of lateral tensions. The student
stands between two upright pafailei
bars placed far enough apart so tnat
his arms are extended at right angles
to his body. He grasps the bars with
both hands and pulls alternately nrst
with the right, then with the lett
hand. This exercise strengthens
laterally the muscles of the shoulders;
If YOU cannot take the exercise
this way you can get an almost ldentl.
cal action by means of stretching
board. This is nothing but piece OF
board. which need not be more than
four inches wide, but which should
be as long as the distance from palm
to palm of each hand when your
arms are stretched out on either side
level with your shoulders. The eXer-
else. then, is to grasp the board be-
tween the hands and to pull on it as
