A chain store makes an in
effectual and short-lived attempt
to reduce the price of milk to the
consumer, and Immediately our
illustriOuS milk administrator
comes out with announcements
that the court has upheld the le-
gality of the milk marketing rules
and regulations, and that this,
therefore, makes it impossible for
the merchant to retail milk for
less than 10 cents quart and
further announces that "the
dealer who charges this price is
doing the community a service"
Of course, the majority of us
probably can not understand such
profound economic logic, and are
inclined to wonder why a product
for which the farmer gets around
10 cents gallon must retail at
40 cents in order to prevent
chaotic conditions in the entire
industry"

and ladies' agreement" not to at
tempt to enter Austria until neigh
Dor nations are reconciled to the

A acknowledgements bill that

enacted Tuesday Otto and his
mother, it is understood, will re-
main in Belgium until they are re-
called.
So portentous to other nations is
the name of Hapsburg, interlaced
with Europe'S history and particu-
larly with Europe's wars, that an
other war might well be precipitat-
ed if Otto returned to the country
without an international agree
ment.
Official statements have made it
apparent that the 22-year-old Otto

RADICAL LABOR
LEADER SEEKS
MORE POWER
Bridges Goes East Hoping To
Obtain Control OF Longshore-
mems Union

SAN FRANCISCO, July 6. UP)-
Harry Bridges. left wing leader in
the International LongShOremen's
association, prepared today to carry
his doctrines of a united front"
and a militant labor force east
ward to the international conven-
tions of his organization.
Bridges departure for New York
tonight was expected to ease for a
time the Pacific coast situation in
which repeated strikes and other
alleged violations of capital-labor
working agreement have produced
unrest, employers ultimatums, and
possibilities of a general maritime
strike.
At the convention Bridges and
the left wing group supporting him
will attempt to Wrest control of the
organization from Joseph P. Ryan,
conservative president. The San
Francisco longshoreman also in
tends to preach his doctrines to
eastern seaboard workers.
The lean Australian who was
springboarded into prominence by
the San Francisco general strike
last year addressed 1000 maritime
workers here last night at a men,
orial program honoring two men
killed in waterfront rioting on
bloody Thursday" in 1884.
In his address Bridges declared
that working agreements and SINH
lar contracts are secondary when
situations arise involving unity
among workers.
Much of the struggle on our
waterfront has been due to the sup
port of one union by another" he
said. There has been lot of talk
about violations of agreements.
1T is our opinion that where a
question OF unity among all work
ers is concerned, agreements must
take second place. That is the pol
icy Of waterfront workers"
Bridges had indicated he will
present to eastern workers the out
line of the purposes and functions
of the Maritime Federation of the
Pacific, the federation of % marine
unions formed under the Australian

SENATE PROBE
Of RAILROADS
To BE OPENED
Collection Of Evidence Will Be
Undertaken Immediately With
Hearings Starting Later

WASHINGTON, July 6. U.P) -
The senate's investigation was
stirred into activity today with the
announcement that collection of
evidence would be started imme-
diately.
Chairman Burton K. Wheeler of
the senate interstate commerce
committee, charged with making
the investigation, said it was pos
sible hearings would be held soon.
But hope it will not be nee
essary to have hearings until fall"
he said. However, we will start
right away to collect evidence and
complete the preliminaries."
Wheeler'S statement came after
he had received from Joseph B.
Eastman, federal coordinator of
transportation, a letter containing
suggestions for the inquiry.
Eastman was directed by the
senate resolution to select rail-
roads for investigation.
"The objecS o. the investigation,
I take it," Eastman wrote, ''is not
merely to exploit certain possible
malodorous or questionable tran
sactions, but to appraise general
railroad conditions with especial
reference to the conduct of fl
nancial matters and the part
which financial influence plays in
railroad management, purposes
and policies ="
Wheeler salo he felt the rail-
roads have been "mismanaged in
their financial matters, that they
have been run in an unbusiness-
like manner" and that those who
manipulated them did SO with an
eye on Wall Street for specul five
purposes rather than in the in
terest of shippers, investors and
workers.
Eastman mentioned as possible
subjects for studies railroads in
whose financing j. P. Morgan &
Co, and Kuhn, Loeb & Co., have
been associated.
The railroads he named in
cluded the st. Louis-San Fran
cisco; Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
