RUM, DATA ON 4
STATES LOST
Times Staff Photo

"Lost or stolen" are the liquor
surveys of four States, California,
Massachusetts, South Dakota, and
Nebraska, made under the direc-
tion of the Wickersham COM
mission.
The search for these dOcu-
ments so far has failed to pro-
duce results, and, despite per-
sistent denials, there is q grow
ing belief among officials of the
commission that they probably
have been abstracted, possibly by
some attache ON the payroll Of
the commission.
Chairman Wickersham sent
this memorandum yesterday to
the Joint Congressional Com
mittee on Printing:
There have now been sent to
you all of the State reports re-
ceived by the commission with
the exception of four, which ap-
pear to have been sent to the
commission, but which search
has thus far failed to discover.
If they are finally found, I will
send them to yOu."

GETS
PROFIT FROM
BONUS LOAN
Maturity Payments Certain
to Decrease; Bond Issue
Quickly Taken on Market

Despite the Governments tenn
porary scarcity of funds derived
from ordinary receipts, some Of
ficials declared today that in the
long run it will be a distinct ad-
vantage to the Treasury to make
loans of about $1,000, 900, 900 to
veterans during 1881.
Postal Costs Reduced
If the Treasury loans veterans
this sum it means the refunding
operation necessary when the
bonus policies mature between
1910 and 1850, will be reduced
Immediately. Only q small per
cent of the loans will be repaid,
officials believe, SO the total ma.
turity value of about $3,5OO,OOO,,
600 will be reduced by the amount
of the loans, plus interest, amount
ing to many millions of dollars.
Results of subscriptions to the
81, 100000 offering of bonds,
and certificates at rates of ~,
2 and 3as per cent, made public
by Secretary Mellon, showed that
the market absorbed this large
volume of securities without diff.
ficulty, even at record low rates
for Government paper. A total
of $3,734,00O,000 was subscribed
for the two issues.
Ready Market Likely
This indicated that unless there
is q remarkable change in mar
ket conditions within the next
few months, there will be no OBJ,
stacle in the way of floating
about $4OO,OOO,OOO in bills be-
tween March Is and June Is,
and issues of about $1,000, 900, 900
in June if that amount becomes
necessary to finance bonus loans,
maturing certificates and 0ther
requirements.
The extremely favorable posi-
tion of the market may result in
another long term bond issue
either in June or during the 1882
fiscal year. beginning July l, in
order to wipe out a billion dollars
or more IN short-term paper,
which must be converted into
bonds before the Treasury under
takes the refunding Of the $8,-
OOO, ,0OO, 600 in Liberty bonds which
are callable in 1882 and 1888.
Final Payments Reduced
There seemed to be no indica-
ton of substantial changes in the
money market before autumn at
the earliest and probably not
during this calendar year.

Forbidden, Hurley Decides;
Baruch to Give Testimony

The commission named by Con.
greSs to devise a plan to take the
profit out of war today faced a
maze Of hazards in the investiga.
tion it has instituted.
Having heard demands from
heads Of veterans organizations
for universal draft, including
capital and man.pOwer, the com.
mission turned to the men who
directed the nations huge ma
= chine in the World War.
With Bernard NJ. Baruch, chair.
man Of the War Industries
Board, scheduled to give his
views, the commission also ex-
poets to hear soon ex-Secretary of
War Newton Baker and former
assistant secretary Benedict
Crowell.
Hurley Directs Probe
The commission of 10, headed
by Secretary of War Hurley, in
tcludes other members of the Cabi.
net and members of Congress.
It was created by Congress.
AT the outset the commission
Is confronted by a provision in
the law prohibiting it from re-
porting upon conscription Of
labor. When the first witness
raised this question, however,
Chairman Hurley ruled it could
be discussed.
National Commander Ralph T.
O'Neil, of the American Legion,
4 suggested that profits of industry
be limited to 7 per cent during
war, that all excess profits be
taken in taxes, and that the Gov.
eminent fix all prices, including
control over wages and conScrip-
tton Of munitions and similar
plants.
Proposes Price Fixing
Mr.. O'Neil proposed that prices
be maintained at the level before
entrance into war.
Representative Collins, of Mis-
SisSippi, replied:
81 can't see how you can do
this unless you put the matter
of fixing prices in the hands
> Of representatives Of industries
Those who fixed prices in
the last war;"
Senator Vandenberg, of Michi.
gan. asked:
'DO we not reach the same
net result so far as the profits
Of war are concerned by drastic
taxatiOn?"
To this Mr.. O'Neil replied:
Eyes. But you have got to
60 beyond the ordinary tax
YOU have got to say to in
' dustry you will get o certain
profit. We did that to the
railroads during the war;"
Secretary of Labor Doak, said
Congress largely defeated the
price-fixing scheme on food by
exempting retailers, and defining
retailers as those doing less than
100000 business year.

Special Orange Cake.

Cream half cupful of shortening
and add one and one-half cupfuls of
sugar gradually while beating constant
ly. When the mixture is creamy, add
four beaten egg yolks until thick half
a cupful or orange juice and one grated
orange rind, and three cupfuls of flour
sifted with four teaspoonfuls of baking
powder. Then add the egg whites
beaten until stiff. Turn into creased
individual tins and bake in a moderate
oven. Cover the tops with orange icing
made as follows: Crate the rind of one
orange and allow the gratings to soak
for while in two teaspoonfuls of lemon
juice. Stir the juice with one cupful of
confectioner'S sugar and the white of
an egg and beat thoroughly, adding
more sugar if a sitter icing is desired.
For a change, this cake may be baked
in two layers and put together with
an orange filling made as follows: Mix
five tablespoonfuls of cake flour or corn
starch with one cupful of sugar, the
grated rind of one orange, half a cupful
of orange juice, three tablespoonfuls
of lemon juice, four tablespoonful of
water, one egg slightly beaten and two
teaspoonfuls of butter, Cook in double
boiler for 10 minutes, stirring constant
ly. Cool before spreading. This makes
a filling for two layers.

Touch of Neuritis.

Having acclaimed for years and years
that there was no such thing as rheu-
matism, I gave many of our older read
ers gerat Joy when l announced here
last Winter that 1 guessed l was de-
veloping a little rheumatic in the left
knee. But the glee of our friends was
short lived, for only few months later
I was reluctantly constrained to report
that the rheumatic or whatever 1t may
have been had cleared up aft1r "a short
spell on a modified Langstroth regimen
Don't interrupt me now to ask what
the Langstroth regimen S-it's a diet,
and if you want to try it on your case
just write in, ask for it, say what you
| think ailS you. and incloSe stamped
envelope bearing your address. Don't
try to make clipping do in lieu Of your
own requeSt-n you do. l promise you
will not get the regimen.
I have never asserted that there is no
such thing as arthritiS-thats just a
medical word meaning Inflammation of
Joint. have never tried to make any,
body believe that neuritis doesn't hap
| pen, either. NeuritiS is another medical
| term meaning Inflammation of nerve.
| What I do say Is that you can't have
neuritis just in your moments Of bore
| com, or by spells, or off and on. If
you do have neuritis, you have it today
ucAt anu IIlc hSth
after, rain or shine, wet grounds or
double-header. I must insist on this
because If we become too indulgent with
the idle wives of the tired business men
they will be springing the ''neuritis"
alibi all the time, and in that way the
imaginary malady might become estab-
lished as firmly as the Older dodge of
nervousness"
I am experiencing--one can scarcely
! say suffering-a touch Of brachial nsu-
/ ritis at present. Do not be disturbed
| by the adjective I apply to my neuritis
That merely indicates where the trouble
| is or what nerve is involved 1t is only
polite to give an inkling like that if
! you're going to mention your trouble at
all. If you were to tell some one you
were nursing a broken bone, you'd indi-
| cate approximately the name or at least
The situation Of the lesion even in every
day gossip. Otherwise it would be need
less to mention the matter at all So
when you seriously mean you have neu-
! ritis you should say SO, as I do. You
must apply the appropriate adjective,
such as sciatic, optic, facial, intercoStal
or brachial if you expect intelligent
people to take your diagnosis seriously.
If you go about prating of your ''neu-
ritis," the only logical conclusion we
| can draw is that you have too much
! imagination, or, If there is anything
