and until the commodities that working
people are compelled to pay for were
permitted to be increased, doubled and I
trebled without any question, and often
seeming-ly with the approval of the
government.
"We are nearer war in th is world
today, I believe than when the kaiser
threw out the gauntlet. Our lawmak
ers are to blame, in my opinion, be
cause the masses of the people would
be behind them if they would attempt
to correct it and surely there is power
to correct it but instead they are
I playing politics, and some of these labor
organizations are playing pontics, anu
it is the same all down the line."
"I am not a red card man, but I am
coming close to it, if this thing keeps
up," Mr. Lee added.
Asked what would be his opinion as
to wage rates based on present food
prices, if the price level should de
cline materially, Mr. Lee said he did
not feel justified in going into the
question, but asked to be allowed to
tell of his experiences in the recent
strike at Winnipeg, where he said he
found conservative, home-owning men
members of his organization throwing
away all they had gained in 25 years 1
of membership and joining the general
strike because they said "to hell with
all this; we cannot stand it any more.
Come with us and we will correct it."
Mr. Lee said they could not make
contracts for the future, not knowing
what tomorrow would bring forth. .He
declared he could not justify the fact
that wheat was $2.26 in this country
and flour perhaps $14 a barrel, when
flour made from the tame grade of
grain sells in Kngland for $3.11.
"Cost Plow" Plan Rapped,
I want, if possible, to see. some plan
devised here that will permit somebody
to say that beef, pork and commodities
of that kind cannot go above a certain
limit," Mr. Lee said.
Mr. Lee also expressed emphatic dis
approval of "cost plus" war contracts,
by which he said owners of inferior
factories had obtained fine plants and
big profits at the expense of taxpayers.
It was such things, he declared, which
caused the railroad employes, faced by
growing expenses, to be willing to fol
low a ' red flag or anything that comes
along
In response to questions Mr. Palmer
admitted that there was no law by
which prices could be lowered directly,
but he declined to say whether new
legislation was needed to enable the
department to punish men who tnay be
guilty of profiteering.
"There is a great deal of good law
on the statute books." the attorney
general declared.
Trade Board Read?-.
When a course of action is decided
upon the federal trade commission is
understood to be ready to supply the
most extensive collection of industrial
information ever gathered by any gov
ernment. Production cost figures have
icen ordered by the commission on in
dust ries representing $ 0,000.00 0,0 f0
worth of capital, as the result of its
activities during the war in advising
the government what prices to pay for
the millions of dollars of purchases
made by it. For this reason it is be
lieved the commission is ready to urge
that further investigations, whjch seem
to he foreshadowed by resolutions
pending in congress, would only muddle
the situation, causing the loss of valua
ble time and the waste of the money
involved.
The commission's investigations dur
ing the war. all of which dealt onlv
with the most authoritative information
derived from the books of companies
involved, are said to have shown that
prof iteeering was at a minimum in the
retail trades, most of the exprbitant
profits which are being made going to
the manufacturers and wholesalers. As
a remedy the commission generally is
understood to favor a licensing system
for corporations.

IXiS ANUELES, Cal., July 31. Rail
roads and highways leading to Lob

tion organization. Mr. Smith has is
surd a warning to all who plan to see
the spectacle that they should go very
early on the day of the fleet's arrival,

tance of 3000 feet along the water
front to facilitate landings from the

Seattle Vessels Operate at Loss, Say
King County Managers.
SEATTLE. Wash., July 31. (Special.)
Seattle's public owned ferry system,
which operates between Seattle and
points on Lake Washington's east
shore, has been running at a loss, and

ficit. Next Wednesday the com mis

on the question.

CHERRY INDUSTRY BIG ONE
Marion County Shipments to One
Buyer 2300 Barrels.
SALEM, Or., July 31. (Special.)
Some idea of the scope of the cherry
industry in Marion county can be
gained by consulting the record of
shipments made to the California Glace
Kruit company through the Salem
Fruit union.
Consignments to this company
amounted to about 2300 barrels of 240
pounds each. This total probably
ould have been increased by 200 bar
rels had not a number of big con
tracts been cancelled. Kesidcs these
shipments thousands of boxes of
cherries were consumed locally, and
onsiderable quantities were sent to
ortland and other markets.
The separate skirt has come into its kingdom this summer.
Never was it displayed in such lovely materials and fascinat
ing styles. For the many warm days that are sure to come in the next two
months, the modish woman will find several good-looking skirts desirable.

Bitrirl of Columbia Retailers iet-
tinjr Enormous Profits.
WASHINGTON. D. C, July 31. Fig-1
ures showing that retail meat, dealers
in Washington are averaging 100 per
cent profi t on all ales of meat were
cited today before a senate Hi strict of
Columbia sub-committee investigating
living costs in the district.
K. A. Cal v in. representing the cot
ton states official advisory marketing
board, told the committee t ha t while.
on July 1, retail dealers in Washington,
aecording to figures of the department
of a pricu It ure. were pay in g from 18 to
1J cents a pound for dressed beef, they
were disposing of the entire carcasses
at an average price of not less than 40
cents a pound.
The witness said the same profits
were being made today.
The butcher or retail dealer, said Mr.
Calvin, when selling at 100 per cent
profit, adds moce to the cost of the
meat to the consumer than the com
bined profits taken by the farmer, the
livestock dealer and the packer, with
transportation and storage charges in
cluded. And he asks that profit, said
Mr. Calvin, for 'simply cutting the
meat and handing it over the counter
to you. assuming no risk whatever.
The witness also cited beef quota
tions at Boston. Philadelphia. Pittsburg
and other cities, showing that, al
though the price of dressed beef to the
retai lers declined on an a vera ge of 25
per cent at those points from July 1 to
July 15. there was an average decrease
of only S per cent to the consumer.
"The figures clearly show," inter
jected Senator Capper of Kansas, a
member of the committee, "that the re
tailer, or the man who is selling over
the counter, is profiteering."

Renewed activity in Marion county

few years ago many farms were
subdivided into small tracts and sold
an average of about $100 an acre.
These same tracts are now bringing
from $3C0 to $1000 an acre, the higher
price being due to improvements.
Many Salem homes are also chang
ing hands, and it is now almost im
possible to obtain a rental dwelling

homes is said to be due to the return
of many persons called into war ac

MILK PRICES LEAP UPWARD
Chicago and Tacoma Dealers Add to
High Cost of Living.
CHICAGO, July 31. Chicago retail
distributors notified their patrons to
day that beginning tomorrow the price
of milk will be increased from 14 to 13
cents a quart and the price of cream
from 15 to 16 cents a half pint.
Retailers explained that the pro
ducers had increased the price of mjlk
to distributors 52 cents a 100 pounds
for August and that this made it neces
sary to raise the price to consumers.
TACOMA, July 31. Tacoma milk
companies today gave notice of an in
creaee in the price of milk next week
from 12 H to 15 cents a quart. It wr.
said the rise is due to the higher
prices being paid by the condenaories
and the increased charges of milk pro
ducers. The milk producers in turn ascribe
the rise to shortage of pasturage and
high grain prices.
