DISCUSSION SWEEPS
PRICE COMMITTEE
h ' ' tig
United States Attorney Is Criticised
for Failure to Assist Body
in Protecting Public.
Dissension swept the ranks of the
federal fair price committee last
regular session mere inreaienea lu
be no committee at all. One member
resierned before the close of the meet
ing and others suggested that the ;
entire group withdraw as the result
of criticism or the stand -the board
had taken on the price of bread.
With the arrival of a copy of the
new anti-profiteering act from Wash
ington it was found that while the
committee has power to set a fair
price, enforcement of it lie3 entirely
in the district attorney's hands. This
deprives the local board of half ot
the authority it had been hoped to
assume.
Future plans for handling the bread
price situation were crowded off the
programme when Mrs. George L. Wil
liams launched an attack against
United States District Attorney Bert
E. Haney for his failure to appear
at the meeting. The long awaited
copy of the anti-profiteering act hav
ing arrived in the morning, it was
presumed that Mr. Haney or one of
his deputies would bring it before the
committee and define the exact
powers of the body.
Palmer Asked for Guidance.
As the women on the committee
refused to listen to "second-hand" in
formation concerning the bill or the
plans of the district attorney, Mrs.
Williams convinced a majority in
favor of her motion to ask Attorney
General Palmer to wire specific de
tails regarding the act to the com
mittee in time for the next meeting.
Thomas ' G. Farreli and ' H. C. Green
voted in the negative.
Discussion which followed and an
explanation on the part of Food Ad
ministrator W. K. Newell nearly dis
rupted the meeting and the two
women members, after adjournment,
proposed that the entire group re
sign. Mr. Green had already pre
sented his resignation during the ses
sion. The main objection made is that
the members of the committee, de
spite the fact that they have no
power, have been criticised for at
tempting to accomplish something
toward setting a fair price on bread,
which the bakers early In the week
raised a cent on pound loaves.
Examination Aaked For.
Mrs. McMath suggested that the
committee acted hastily at its last
meeting, when it declared anything
above 10 cents retail and 8 cents
wholesale an unfair figure and that
in justice to the bakers it should
make a thorough examination of the
situation.
"Because Mr. Haney has taken no
interest in this body." she said, "we're
placed in this awkward position ot
having done something apparently
without authority."
Mrs. Williams maintained that it
was the bakers' place to ask a re
hearing on bread, but agreed with
Mrs. McNath that "the situation is
disgusting."
"We can't afford to sit on this
committee under reigning conditions."
the two women said. "In taking no
interest Mr. Haney is making us the
laughing stock of the town. Further
more, we resent having the committee
appointed by the mayor offering any
assistance in the form of an account
ant and we think it a slap at us to
have Mr. Haney's chosen investigator
- running around with the municipal
committee.
Mrs. Williams Aaka Question.
Mrs. Williams insisted that the
situation is entirely absurd. "How
could the bakers get together in the
chamber of commerce the other day
and agree on prices and advertise
them? Where are some of our Won-
- derfully efficient officers who are
anxious to make investigations? They
have a chance right here," she main
tained.
Immediately upon receipt of the
copy of the anti-profiteering act yes-;-
terday morning the district attorney
delegated William Bryon,- special
agent for the department of justice,
to investigate the books of the bakers.
He also invited W. D. Whttcomb of
' the mayor's committee, now r-t work
expertlng these accounts, to aid. As
to sending a deputy to attend ses
sions of the fair price committee, in
pursuance with the request made by
Its members, Mr. Haney said that
whenever the investigation of some
specific commodity demands legal ad
vice he will be glad to send a deputy
to the meetings. "I don't want one
of my men to go there and sit around
- and accomplish nothing," he ex
plained. BRITISH NAVY FLAYED
WRITER SAYS MINOR OFFI
CERS ARE COARSE, BRUTAL.
Midshipmen Subjected to "Break
ing" Process Gunroom Life
on China Exposed.' .
(Copyright by the New York World. Pub
lished by ArranRpmpnt, I
LONDON. Oct. 31. (Special Cable.)
In his new book. "The Gun Room,"
Charles Langbridge Morgan makes
almost incredible accusations of bru
tality and coarseness against the
minor officers of the British navy. He
.states for example:
"The service does its training of
the young on the principle of "flog
a dog while it is a pup' and if you
get through that stage well you are
probably shaped to a mould like Chi-,
nese women's feet, and you forget, j
But if you break while the pressure
is being applied, you break, that's
all."
Details so-called of the "breaking"
process are given in Morgan's de
scription of life in the gunroom. He
says as one of the diversions there
new midshipmen are blindfolded and
forced to follow a trail of angostura
bitters until they find a hidden piece
of bread. He describes a middy's life
under a eub-lieutenant as one of hard
work, bad language, and brutal treat
ment. The China stations come for special
mention.
Because of idleness and confinement
there, conversation becomes incredi
bly filthy, even the elements of wit
disappeared from its indecency. The
intelligence of the midshipmen was
applied to the invention of new
blasphemies, --the foulness of which
was the measure of their audience's
applause." . asv

SUGAR CONTROL IS NEED
EQUALIZATION BOARD HEAD
SAYS LEGISLATION' NEEDED.
Senator McXary Said to Have Mis
understood 1 9 2 0 Price Held
to Depend on Rationing.
NEW YORK, Oct. 31. The contin
ued existence of the sugar equaliza
tion board depends on whether legis
lation is enacted giving It authority
to control profiteering and ration
the manufacturing consumption of
sugar. This was emphasized today
In a telegram sent to Senator lie-
Nary of Oregon, In charger of the
senate sugar investigation oy George
A. Zabriskte, chairman of the equal
ization board.
- Mr. Zabriskie said that Senator
McNary apparently had mlsunder
etood a telegram cent him yesterday
which led the senator to announce in
Washington that the equalization
board was preparing to wind up its
activities because of Inability to se
cure sufficient augar from Cuba to
warrant further government control.
In today's telegram Mr. Zabriskie
said In part:
"I wish to state explicitly that the
sugar equalization board does not
consider that any protection can be
given to the American people In the
matter of supplies and price of sugar
during the year 1920 unless there is
such legislation as gives the power
to the board not only to purchase
raw sugar, but also to control spec
ulation profiteering- and to control
the distribution as to ration down the
consumption of candy and sweet
drinks to a point that will protect
toe American householders.
The legislation desired probably
would enable the board to purchase
Cuban sugars eventually at a reason
able price, Mr. Zabriskie said.

in his reply that the case was not
within the scope of his office. "1
do not assume that the county offi

they are waiting to gather further
evidence." he replied. "You will un
derstand that the mere fact that the
potatoes were poisoned would not be
sufficient to sustain a criminal com
plaint against the person who sold
them, unless you could show the ad
ditional fact that he knowingly put
poison In the potatoes."
