WASHINGTON. Feb. 14. With
broad suggestion that Senator Charo
be Iain's much-dlsrutsed New York
speech. In which he charged that the
American military machine had com
pletely broken down, might have been
the cause of tne failure of the recent
strike disturbances In Germany and
Austria, by giving the enemy new heart
anil hoMa of victory. Senator James, of
Kentucky, today In the Senate spoke
at length In defense of the Admtnis
trstion s war accomplishments.
Senator James' speech reopened the
war discussion, which promises to con
tinue again for severs! days with Re
publicans leading the attack and Dm
ocrats making defense.

Senator Chamberlain's speech. James
declared, waa unjustified by the facts,
and of great comfort to the enemy
Who can measure the mighty force
of this utterance In the bands of the

"No." he shouted at Senator Cham

In passing. Senator James refemed
to former Senator Boot's visit to Rus
sia In the attempt to hold her fast to
the allies. The ml-sion had failed, he
said, but It was not Mr. Boot's fault.
"But had Mr. Bryan been sent on that
mission." he declared, "how this cham
ber would hava resounded with crit

the work of the Navy. One of the
demonstrations of the Navy's effi
ciency, he said, waa tne repairang oi

As we made the captain of the

Administrator Ayer Fixes Re
tail Poultry Price.
UNDUE PROFITS HIT HARD
Dealers Wlio Intended to Cash In
Heavily on Cold Storage Hold
. lngs Find Themselves in Bad
Situation Due to Order.
Poultry profiteering "got the ax,"
while the poultry Itself Is more gen
erally to escape the chopping block as
the result of emergency orders issued
yesterday by the Federal Food Admin
istrator. W. B. Ayer.
The blow which amputated present
and possible profits on storage poul
try descended with the well-known dull
thud when the administrator announced
the definite, fixed retail price ol
cents per pound.
Huckster Turns Neat Profit.
Only yesterday had filtered In the
report that a huckster had collected
52 cents a pound for poultry bought in
Tamhill-street market at 38 cents.
The ban on the killing of hens and
pullets between now and April 30 was
made all but absolute when the admin
istrator announced that every dealer
who sells to hotels, restaurants or
eating-houses must Immediately take
out a license. Aa licensees they can
no longer deal In freshly-killed poul
try, other than the supply furnished
by the superfluous rooster.
Mr. Aver s price-fixing order la tne
most drastic yet put Into effect by the
Oregon Food Administration. No con
cealment of the fact that it Is to pro
tect the consumer as well as the stock
of egg-layers is made. It is a direct
thrust at larger concerns which have
thought to reap handsome returns on
cold-storage poultry meats.
Farmer la Appealed To.
The administrator's order conveys an
appeal to the farmer and poultryman.
His pronouncement followa:
"I wish that the farmers and other
producers of poultry would realize that
the recent order of the Food Adminis
tration prohibiting the licensees from
handling hens and pullets until April
30. was put into effect for the ultimate
benefit of the Nation aa a whole dur
ing war times, and while the bill
paxsed by Congress does not give the
Food Administration any control over
the producers, I am appealing to their
patriotism to retain their stock and
dispose of it. I find that upon investi
gation the prices prior to February 11,
when the new order went into effect,
were 24 cents for live poultry and 28
cents for dressed poultry, and that the
same was retailing on the markets at
30 cents. 1 hereby give notice that any
retail price for any hens, cockerels or
pullets in excess of 30 cents is un
reasonable and Is hereby prohibited.
Retailer'. Price Fixed.
"At the conference of wholesale
poultry dealers and commission men
held this afternoon It was unanimously
agreed that the price to the retail
dealer should be not to exceed 24 cents
for live fowl and 28 cents for dressed
fowl.
. "While It has been generally under
stood that all poultry dealers doing a
business of J50.000 or more a year must
operate under a Government license, it
has not been understood that retailers
selling any licensed commodities to
hotels, -restaurants, boarding-houses
and other public eating houses must'
secure a license. They must apply at
once to the license division of the
United States Food Administration at
Washington and. until such license ar
rives, they are subject to all the rules
and regulations governing licensees.
This Is notice to all such concerns that
if they sell to hotels, restaurants or
other eating places, they must have
this license and that they are barred
from selling live or freshly killed hens
or pullets until May 1."

tions for a freer interchange of food-'
stuffs and other products by the United

be concluded at Mexico City. Unable
to enter into ah agreement, Rafael
Nieto, the Mexican commissioner, will,
leave this week for Mexico, accom
panied by Ambassador Fletcher, to per
mit President Carranza personally to
participate in the conferences.
With Mr. Fletcher will go George
McCarty, a Mexico City banker, who.
has been in Washington aiding the
food administration.
Mexico's economic condition Is bad
and must become worse unless a Ipos-.-ening
of the embargo .on foodstuffs and
gold is effected. A large part of the
Mexican population is now actually in
want. Most of the questions involved
In the agreement have been agreed
upon.
; The conferences over the Imports'-
tlon of sisal to the United States have '
resulted in an ' understanding that is
expected to result in a "lower price for
binder twine. Mexico is also expected
to facilitate the exportation of mining
products to the United States by a mod
ification of various decrees.
The point on which debate Is antici
pated is that of the gold supply. A
plan for the stabilization of exchange
has been suggested by the United
States Government as the basis for an
agreement under which Mexico and her
business men may get more metallic
reserve.
