REASON Of HIGH
COST Of LIVING
FOUND At LAST

Washington, June 5.--A princi-
pal cause for increasing living
costs in the United States is the
unwieldly system of marketing and
distributing commodities including
relatively inefficient means and
uneconomiC methods coupled with
wasteful practices on the part OF
the public, according to findings
made public today by the joint
congressional commission on agri-
cultural inquiry.
eve have now reached a point
where it costs more to distribute
anI serve than it does to produce, e
Chairman Sidney Anderson said in
a forecast on the commission re-
port. Commodity values are lost
in a. mass of service costs and the
time has come for n consideration
Of the fundamental problems Of
the economic distribution OF the
essentials of living"
In its search for data to build
up a picture of the present organi-
zation of marketing and distribu-
tion in the United States, the COM
mission had the technical assistance
and cooperation of trade associa-
tions in 200 industries, the report
said, and directed $1,000 question
naires to individuals and institu-
'tions. The returns We're analyzed
and compiled by a conference OF
the trade representative with the
commission.

TO "STRIKE BACK" AT
FOES OF TARIFF BILL

Washington, June 5.-A policy of
striking back at opponents of the
tariff bill was
agreed upon today by senate lead
ers. Senator Watson. of Indiana,
delivered the first OF a planned
series of speeches in the senate
which leaders said were designed
not only TO place the republican
viewpoint on the tariff before the
country but also to disclose some
of the sources of opposition to the
bill.
Most OF Senator Watson's address
was directed to democratic attacks
which have been made In the SEN
late during the six weeks the bill
has been under consideration.
In passing, however, he charged
la foreign propaganda against the
measure, referring generally 70
those whom he said had sought to
Iget the United States into the league
of nations and specifically to some
Representatives Of foreign nations
In this country.
Senator Watson's address OF two
hours drew a reply of slightly
greater length from Senator Sim
mons, North Carolina, leader OF
the democratic forces in the tariff
flight. Senator McCumber, North
Dakota, in charge Of the bill, re-
piled briefly to Senator Simmons.
land then the senate proceeded to
discussion of, and vote on dye and
|other schedules in the measure.

balanced tariff measure ever pre-

ORDERS C0NSCRlPTI0N
OF ALL CHRISTIANS
RESIDENT IN ClLlClA

Adana, Cilicia, June 5.-Musta-
pha Kemal Pasha, head of the
Turkish nationalist government,
has given orders for the conscrip-
ton of all Christians resident IN
Cilicia. They are to be formed IN
to labor brigades and sent to the
front line trenches to assist the
Turkish army in its war against
the Greeks.
The Turkish newspapers are
coming out boldly in advocacy OF
a policy of clearing out all Chris
tians from Cilicia so that the coun-
try may become purely Moslem.
Many Christians are being impris-
oned on political charges. and their
estates confiscated and sold on the
allegation that they belonged to the
Turks before the war.
1t is estimated here that fully so
per cent of the Armenians in Cilicia
have either been conscripted, de-
ported, killed or have died of star
walton. A large number of those
remaining have embraced the Mos
lem faith SO as to escape persecu-
Ition.

CURTIS Dy!1s%..(
WANT >}I 3 BANK
L|SItO, CLAIMS
Co-Defendant With Gov.
Small Wanted Grant Park
Institution Kept Out OF
Bankers Directory.
(By 1ho associated Press.)

Waukegan, ILL.,. June .(by the
Associated Press,) Vernon Curtis,
CO. defendant with Governor Len
Small on charges of conspiracy 10
defraud the state, objected to hav-
ing the Grant Park bank-which
the state alleges was fictitious in
stitution for the manipulation OF
public funds--listed a a bank IN
bankers directory, according to
evidence today at the trial OF the
governor.
Through Marshall II. Jackson OF
Dwight and NJ. II. Jackson, repre-
sentatives of a Chicago bank sup
ply house, who furnished the 5quip-
ment for the Grant Park bank, the
state brought out that Mr.. Curtis
asked the witness to call up the
bankers directory publishers after
they had made inquiries about the
new bank, and tell them that it
was not going to be engaged in
banking business"
One ledger, a rubber stamp, 800
time certificates of deposit, SOC de-
mand certificates of deposit, 500
deposit slips, 500 letterheads and
500 envelopes, constituted the
equipment ordered from him for
the bank, Mr.. Jackson testified.
Tho week end was enlivened by
another spat between the jury and
the bailiffs, and q quarrel between
the jurymen, it developed today.
The trouble started Sunday when
the jury voted, II to /. to attend
"a ball game at Antioch, and the
18th man, August Larsen, a Dane,
held out for a hiking club picnic.
The IL appealed to the ludgc to
lock Larsen up while they saw the
game and when he declined and
ruled that Larsen should accom-
pany the majority, Larsen devel-
oped a headache and the jury
stayed home.
Then a bailiff took them for n
walk and the jury decided to go
fishing, but the baliff. declined to
walk to the end of the half mile
lighthouse pier, and the dis
gruntled jurors finally were forced
to fish in shallow water at the
shore end.
Today the jurors presented a
petition to Judge Edwards asking
longer hours in court. They OBJ
iected to the working day selected
by the lawyers-10 a. m. to 4:S0
D. m. They proposed starting at
0 a. m. and working until p. M.
The attorneys and court agreed to
a compromise of $3.50 a. M. to 4 so
p. M, with one hour for lunch in
stead of an hour and a half.
The jurors celebrated their par
tial victory by asking permission
to NOW the judges lawn and plant
his garden this afternoon. 1t was
granted. Last week the IL jur-
ors called on Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
wards and while one, an automo-
bile mechanic. overhauled the
family car, and another, a plumber,
repaired the bath room, the others,
including two landscape gardeners,
a carpenter and several farmers
and laborers trimmed the shrubs
and lawn, repaired the screens. did
a bit of house painting and spaded
the garden.

Much mystery surrounded the
obtaining of the warrant. Until

late today. following the forma'

of the department denied that

The first disclosure of the gov

him and attributed it to politics.
"It is the penalty one must pay

William M. Calder, against the re-
nomination of whom considerable
opposition is developing. The Anti
Saloon league mas announced that
if Calder is renominateo it will
carry its fight against him to the
polls.
Although there has been no real
boom for young Roosevelt, it Is no
secret that he is politically amli-
Itious and that he is receiving much
encouragement. Some friends have
advised him that he would probably
be stronger candida for govern
or than for United States senator.
They have told him tha. ne would
have as good a chance against a
broken field as any one else and In
such case it is certain that he
would not want to be tied up as Il
nominee for the senate.
While Governor Miller has rot

impression, now is that he viii do

Roosevelt has held back from an
