BREAD PROFITEERING DOUBTED BY-HANEY District Attorney Says Higher Price May Be Justified, v NEGLECT DUTIES DENIED Bakers' Books In Process of Audit to Get Fads to Report to Attorney-General. That he believes the Tortland bakers may be Justified In increasing the price of bread, was the remark made by United States District At torney Haney in the course of an ex planation of his attitude toward the operations of the federal fair price committee last night, in answer to criticism by members of that board. "I have neither time nor inclina tion to meet with the committee," said the district attorney, in describ ing the press of duties in his office. "It is not a fact that I have refused to advise the members as to the com mittee's purpose and duties. I am ready to give any legal advice to the best of my ability and have done so, especially when the committee was first formed. "There is nothinc in the new anti profiteering act that looks anything like what we expected in its appli cation to the committee. I told Food Administrator Newell all about it and have his word that he did advise the committee accordingly. The only difference in the bill is that it adds wearing apparel to the list of neces saries and makes It unlawful to charge any unjust or unreasonable prices in dealing with them. It also provides a penalty for violations of the law. Baker' Books Audited. "If any dealer charges more than the sum fixed by your committee as a fair price the matter shall be taken up by my office and carried into the courts. I have taken the proper steps since you set 8 cents as the fair wholesale price on bread and I can do nothing more nor advise you further. As soon as I receive a re port from my agent it shall be sub mitted to the attorney-general with recommendations. That is what I am supposed to do. I am not to use findings of this committee in the mat ter. 1 must base my conclusions on facts. This takes careful maneuver ing and involves no guess work. My agent is having the books of the principal bakeries audited. Personal ly, for the present, I do not feel that the increase of 1 cent is unfair. Kntorremcnt Power Larking. "As to the status of the fair price committee it is not mentioned in the new act and must work as it did when first created last August. It has no authority and no power to en force a finding. It is extra legal and is designed to set fair prices after making investigations. It has been charged that I have neglected the committee, but this is not true. It is impossible for me to come here every time, but 1 have been sending reports twice a week to the attorney general on the work you are doing." Mr. Haney mentioned one possibil ity of subterfuge on the part of the bakers, in which case they might be prosecuted. If any man operating 3 bakery is paying himself an exces sive salary, this might be used again him. RUc Believed Justified. "When we first had the bakers in. It looked as though they had been losing money during the summer." Mr. Haney continueed. "They, ho ever, had made money early in the year and there was the likelihood of their business paying profits the last two months of 1919. For this reason. as I believed they would break even, I recommended that the price be left as it was. 1 did not foresee that hard wheat would go up. "In Seattle, where the wholesale price is 10 cents, the government put three agents at work on an investi gation and they reported that the bakers were not making any money. This has somewhat convinced me that those here may be Justified in raising their figure. Of course, the concerns in this city are bigger and if the old bunk about greater production low ering prices is true, that might apply in this case." Mr. Haney said he had given careful attention to the milk situation and has found that the heavy expense is in the distribution, and that until this is changed he sees no remedy. Committee Members Chagrined. A communication from Attorney General Palmer, sent in response to a telegram from the committee asking a more comprehensive explanation of the new anti-profiteering law, gave practically the same information as that already on hand. Members of the committee expressed much chagrin because they have no power, but agreed that the committee has accomplished enough to justify its further existence. Meetings were re duced to one a week, this on Wednes day night. Mrs. tl. I.,. Williams, in remarking on the provisions of the bill, s;tid that the only witnesses the committee has The Best Cough Syrup is Home-made. Here's an rnj way to save ?. and Trt have the heM. coach remedy j on ever tried. You've probably heard of this well known plan of making cough syrup at home. But have you ever used it? When you do, you will understand why thousands of families, the world over, feel that they could hardly keep house without it. It's simple and cheap, but the way it takes hold of a cough will quickly earn it a perma nent place in your home. Into a pint bottle pour 2 ounces of Pinex; then add plain granulated sugar syrup to fill up the pint. Or, if desired, use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it tastes good, never spoils, and gives you a full pint of better cough remedy than you Could buv ready-made for three times its cost. It is really wonderful how quickly this home-made remedy conquers cough usually in 24 hours or less. It semis to penetrate through every air passage, loosens a dry, hoarse or tight coueh. lifts the phlegm, heals the membranes, anil gives almost immedi ate relief. Splendid for throat tickle, hoarseness, croup, bronchitis and bi on- -htMl asthma.

Dairy produce costs were threshed out yesterday at the meeting of the Housewives' council in the Central library by A. M. Work of the Portland Damascus creamery and E. Cashin of the Mutual creamery. Neither could suggest an immediate remedy for the high prices, largely laid up to the cost of distribution. but the former speaker maintained that something might be accomplished through an ordinance making it unlawful to hold milk containers belonging to dairies In private homes. This, he declared, would do away with a share of the loss in bottles, for which his firm monthly makes an allowance of $1000. When a zoning system of delivery and a, milk center were suggested Mr. Work said this might be at-. tempted, but it would take a long time to make it an established insti tution. As to a ticket system of pay ment, he said the people are not ready I- ASfKR LEAVES OPERA STAGE FOR VAUDEVILLE. Ceclle IV Andrea. Luring lights of vaudevills won Cecile D'Andrea, the noted Italian danseuse, from possible glory as premier danseuse of the New York Metropolitan op era company to fame as a Fan tages star. With Henry A. Walters, Miss D'Andrea is starring at Pan tages this week in the act of her own creation, "Dance Fan tasies," which dramatic critics have pronounced one of the ex ceptional showings of the sea son. Miss D'Andrea was second in the huge ballet at the Metro politan last year and would have succeeded to the principal role this season had sne not turned to vaudeville, where she is ex tremely happy and successful. for it. Mr. Cashin held that the ticket system has been successful in Salt Lake City. Mr. Cashin urged that more people buy storage butter and eggs, .as he said distributors are anxious to get their stocks out before the end of the year. He declared that there has been little profit in the egg and but ter business this year. The Housewives' council authorized the appointment of a committee to investigate methods employed in small bakeries in the city. This is to be headed by Mrs. Barber, secre tary of the organization. MARION DANCE HALLS HIT Circuit Court Judge Says Morals of Young Endangered. SALEM. Or., Nov. 4. (Special.) That the dance halls operating in the rural districts within a few miles of Salem are doing more to corrupt the morals of the young people of this vicinity than any other single agency, was the charge made by Judge Bing ham of the local circuit court here today while taking testimony in the divorce suit of James Moormann against his wife, Mildred Moormann. Judge Bingham declared that not less than half a dozen divorce actions recently tried in his court could be traced directly to the influence of the dance hall. Judge Bingham took occasion to comment on the divorce evil while G. H. Sauder, proprietor of a dance hall at Auburn was giving testimony in behalf of the plaintirr. Mrs. Moormann originally instituted the suit for divorce, but a cross com plaint was later filed by her husband and the decree was given to him. Judge Bingham's attitude toward Marion county dance halls is support ed by the police, who say they have re ceived many complaints recently re garding the conduct of these resorts. In Salem the dances are said to be conducted in an orderly manner. CAPITAL POST ON RECORD Salem Legion Organization Op posed to Universal Training. SALEM, Or., Nov. 4. (Special.)

SOME THREATEN TO QUIT Day Is Taken ITp by Debate Over 4 8-Hour Week International Convention Proposed. WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. Incensed at critical remarks of Senator Sher man of Illinois, in the senate, several members of the international labor conference tonight declared that un less official assurance was forth coming that the addresses delivered yesterday and today are not repre sentative of the attitude of the sen ate, steps might be taken to adjourn the conference or move it elsewhere. While the senate addresses were Barely mentioned, delegates freely discussed the matter among them selves, and several declared their willingness to leave Washington. Conference officials, however, are making an effort to avoid any break. Advocates of a 48-hour week, fav ored by the report of the organising committee, clashed today with Sb- fenders of a straight eight-hour day on the floor of the conference. Opin ions of capital and labor delegates are further apart than on any other item, members said, and if the con flicting views can be reconciled. speedy agreement on the other issues may be expected. Briton Opens Debate. The debate was opened by George N. Barnes, member of the British war cabinet and government delegate to the conference, with a speech in which no indorsed the 48-hour week Instead of the straight eight-hour day be cause the former is more elastic,' and can be put Into effect more read ily by all countries. Mr. Barnes, following hia address, moved that the draft convention of the 48-hour week prepared by the or ganizing committee be adopted by the conierence as the basts of discussio but that the question of its applica tion to tropical and industrially un developed countries by referred to a committee for consideration and re port. Immediate protection against this motion was raised by F. M. Draper, Canadian labor delegate. who de clared that Mr. Barnes' proposal would snut out consideration of the eiirht hour day. Leon Jouhux, French labor leader,- Joined Mr. Draper's protest, and added that the 48-hour week is only "an incident of the principle of tne eignt-nour day." iouis Guerin, French employer representative, wanted the question referred to a commission, while D. S. aiajorl banks, British capital delegate BusseBiua inai a e Date on the ques tion be adjourned for 24 hours. The conierence rinally adjourned until 2:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, but over the protest of Uinos Baldesi Italian labor delegate, who declared tnat every time a difference of opin ion arises in tne conierence someone moved to adjourn. British to Keep Faith, Declaring that failure to adopt a snorter worKing nay would be to "break faith with laborers," who "throughout the war kept to their work in the hope and belief that shorter working hours would be made general after the war," Mr. Barnes said tnat the British government in tended to make good its promise. The international convention limit ing the hours of work in industry to 48 a week in all countries ratifying the agreement by July 1, 1927, pro posed to the International Labor con ference today by the organizing com mittee, was drafted on the basis of information received from the irov ernments of the countries invited to the conierence. The limit of 48 hours may be ex ceeded in certain industries and under special conditions. For the benefit NEWS NOTES FROM THE CAPITOL SALEM, Nov. 4. (Special.) W. G.

A bucket carrier is used by the man in charge in ascending and descending the tree when in search of forest fires. Adjutant-General Strafrin has re turned to Salem after a few days spent in the east, where he attended a meeting of the military "heads of the various states. Frank Neuner, who is employed in the state highway department, arrived here yesterday from Portland.

W. A. Dalziel. deputy etate sealer of weights and measures, spent the day of Japan, China and India reserva tions are made for postponment of en forcement of the agreement, because of climatic conditions, the imperfect development of industrial organiza tion and other special circumstances. It also is provided that the conven tion may be suspended in any country by order of the government in the event of war or other emergency. The committee on admission of new nations decided . to recommend that all countries requesting admis sion be accepted as members or the international labor organization. Canada voted against the proposal. In accordance with this decision, the committee recommended the admis sion of Finland. Before the conference met, Senator Sherman, republican, Illinois, launched an attack on it in the sen ate. He said the conference contained number of socialists and also a number of those who go beyond so cialism radicals, alien firebrands but a few degrees removed from those who believe in soviet princi ples." Germany has delegates in the con ference, wboAre here to "promote in dustrial mischief," Senator Sherman said, while Japan has delegates plan ning inroads on American industry. Senator Sherman predicted that the conference would declare against the American open shop and subject the United States to economic boycott if the conference decree was not ob served.
