ficiency bills to close up all accounts

far as they are yet available. -.
Chairman Madden Of the House an
propriations committee got permts-
sion OF the House before 1t adjourned
to file not later than July 10 hiz
statement showing the total 'appro-
priations. -. -
While the two and a half billion
dollars appropriated during this sxss
sion. carries the three deficiency bills
1t is the contention Of Chairman
Madden that during the fiscal yeas
just opening there will be a;consid- a
cradle decrease In deficiency appro-
priations because the appropriations
committee has laid down the law to
the government officials in various
branches Of the service that they
must use their appropriations care
fully for the specific purposes and
must not exceed these appropria-
tions without authority on the sup
position that any deficiency that
arises will be taken care Of. Chair
man Madden will contend. therefore,
that the appropriations which have
been made represent fairly well the
total cost of government during the
fiscal year just opening.

IMMIGRANTS RACE
DAMPEDUNDERFOG
Nine Great Liners, Lost in
New York Harbor Mists,
Waste Day in Quarantine.
GREEKS FAR PAST QUOTA
Argentina Barely Misses Collision
With Aquitania and Docks Too
Late for Ellis Island.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July Mature. be-
slowing her blows impartially, step
ped in among the contestants in the
great immigrant sweepstakes today,
and. throwing a record summer fog
over New York harbor. stopped the
July race for liberty before it fairly
got started.
When the thousands of immigrants
saw daybreak this morning they
could scarcely tell it from night. 1t
was impossible to see the stern from
the bow of any of the nine great
liners which were in quarantine wait
ing for medical inspection. The fog
had settled early, and experienced
harbor men declared there was little
chance for the immigrants to land
today and be counted on the national
quotas which opened at midnight last
night.
Aftert gallant run up the bay the
Argentina. an Italian boat. which had
beaten the King Alexander. a Greek
ship, by half an hour. almost came to
grief. barely averting a collision with
the Aquitania. Yet all her efforts
went for naught, for she docked too
late to get her passengers to Ellis
Island
Four Ships Garry Greeks.
The race early last night resolved
itself primarily into a race of Greeks.
The Greek quota for July is low
only 659-and four ships which ar
rived after midnight brought more
than that number. First to drop her
anchor off RoSebank was the Italian
Conte Rosso. with 500 Greek steer
age passengers. Twenty minutes
later the Presidente Wilson. with 200
hove to. The Argentina got in early
this morning and was followed by
the King Alexander
Promptly at 6. Capt. Hillary, ir
command of the quarantine cutter
fleet, took out one of his boats. He
had two doctors aboard and was
bound for the Conte Rosso. Usually
he would have put his men aboard
in ten minutes. 1t was s o'clock when
the doctor ran UP the yellow flag al
the Italians masthead. And so 1,
went through the early morning. The
nine ships. all lying out there some
where in the mist" were literally lost
in strip of water not over a mile
In width.

1t was not until then that the doc.
tors could go aboard their respective
ships. The immigrants race had de-
generated into dull sick dud No
body knew and nobody cared who was
ahead. Ii was a matter of routine
from that time on. One by one the
ships were cleared and sent on theil
way up the bay to disgorge thei,
immigrant cargoes for Ellis Island ir
a driving rain.
Tomorrow. perhaps. or Monday the
country will know who won.

OCCUPIED AREA CITIES
REFUGE FOR TOURISTS

COBLENZ. June 20.-American and
British tourists are f1ocking to the
larger cities in the occupied areas of
Germany in order to escape the high
prices for living now leveled against
allied nationals in the interior of
Germany.
Hundreds of visitors on their way
to and from the Passion Play at
Oberammergau are making their
headquarters during their stay in Ger
many in this city. and reports from
Cologne, occupied by the British. and
from Mayence and Wiesbaden, occu-
pied by the French, are to the same
effect. In the occupied areas they are
protected against proflteering by
laws which prevent German trades
men from discriminating against al
lied nationals.
Prices in the occupation zones. how
ever, have taken a jump Of about rs
per cent since the mark went very
low few weeks ago. and its gain
within the past few days has had no
effect whatever on prices. All tour
lists returning from the interior are
warning their friends not to place
themselves at the mercy of the Ger
man profiteers, who are charging
visitors from 200 to 500 per cent more
than German nationals

SATURDAY CLOSING
SEASON TO BEGIN
Many Stores Will invoke AL
Day Program for Sum-
mer Period.

Washington's larger department.
stores and retail houses will inaugu-
rate their summer Saturday closing
policy, beginning next Saturday, Il
was announced last night by the
Merchants and Manufacturers Asso-
citation. The larger stores will re-
main closed the entire day. while a
great number Of other houses. large
and small, will close on Saturdays
at I or o'clock.
At the same time ii was announced
that all business places will be closed
Tuesday. July 4. 1t was urged that
shoppers come early to the storel
day needs.
Benefit to Employees.
The Saturday closing movement,
which was enlarged to the day period
four years ago, is due to the desire
OF merchants to give their employees
every possible advantage, the asso-
citation states.
Up to four years ago the practice
in Washington had been to close at
8 o'clock during the summer month";
and l o'clock on Saturday. 1t was
found, however, that the volume oi
business in the late afternoons was
so great, with the government de-
prejudicial to customers interests
and business welfare to continue this
practice. Hence the setting of the
business day to 6 O'Clock. with an
all-day closing on Saturday.
With the exception of mems wear,
shoe stores, hardware. electrical sup
plies and food. il is expected that
all-day closing will be very general.

sires of business men with respect 10

BODIES OF 2 REPRIEVED
NEGROES FOUND HANGED
Pair Convicted of Assault on White

From Deputy. ~...
By the Associated Press.

SAVANNAH. Ga, July l.-James
Harvey and Joe Jordan. two negroes,
who had been convicted of assault
upon a white woman in Wayne. coun-
ty, and sentence to death, were found
hanging to a limb near the historic
Midway Church in Liberty county
this morning, at 1920 o'clock. They
were taken from Wayne county
officers by a mob of fifty men last
night. AS soon as the officers were able
to report the seizure of the men a
search for them was started.
The negroes had been twice res
pited. They were sentenced to hang
at Jesup Friday, but the execution
was held up by a reprieve granted
by the governor. -
Later in the day evidences OF much
feeling against the men convinced
the authorities that something must
be done to avoid an attack on the
Jesup JAIL and during the afternoon
the prisoners were put in an auto
mobile to be brought to Savannah
for safekeeping. When the party
reached the Intersection of the Hines
VILE road and the Dixie highway
they found the road blocked with
automobiles. The negroes were seized,
and the Wayne county officers were
ordered back to Jesup, according. to
the story reaching Savannah. The
bodies were found this morning.

Hot Weather Advice for Babies
1t is raw milk that causes nearly
all the loose bowels among babies

Raw milk is hard to digest.
Scalded or boiled milk is
easily digested and does not
constipate.
Milk poor in fat is best for
babies. Pour off some of the
cream when pilk appears very
rich.
Every baby should get small
doses of orange juice or
strained canned tomato juice,
diluted in some water, be-,
tween bottles, once or twice
daily. These substances con-.
tain quantities of vitamines
which help the assimilation
of food. /.
Give the baby plenty cool,

Keep all milk cold and
