Washington, July 6. -President Wll-
Bern. It is expected, will veto the arrtcul-
. tural appropriation bill because of the
amendment it contained fixing the price
of 'Wheat at $2.40 a bushel. The presi
dent's attitude Is based on his disap
proval of any attempt by conirresa to
' take front the food administration the
rlrht to fix prices.
The price agreement brought to end the
Ions; controversy between the senate
and house which threatened to block
all efforts to pass the agricultural bill.
A majority in the senate, led by sen
ators from the agricultural states. had
.. been holding out for a minimum price of
13.80 and had resisted all efforts of
the bouse to recede from this position
and allow the food administration to
proceed without restriction In the mat
ter of fixing the prices.
. Hosts Debate Grows Warm
Friday, however, ' the senate agreed
to allow' the house to vote again
.on the question, and It wa brought up
.; in the house this morning by Represen
tative Lever of South Carolina, chair
man tf the agricultural committee. Mr.
Lever opposed the amendment and told
" tha house that there is an overabund
. a nee of wheat In the country. He. said
that if restrictions were removed wheat
would drop to $1.23 or $1.60 a bushel.
A warm debate followed, in which
members from the great wheat growing
states aligned themselves against those
from the manufacturing communities
and cotton raising sections of the South.
Representative Garner of Texas, op
posing the amendment, said that if the
house rejected the $2.00 amendment the
senate would recede. At- this. Repre
sentative Haughman of Iowa replied
that Mr, Garner was mistaken.
'The gentleman does not understand
the temper of the senate," he said. "The
senate is in no mood to give in."
Taking Mosey From Working Mea
Mr. Stafford of Wisconsin denounced
the attempt to raise the price of whea
1 as "fishing after the farmer vote."
Tou. are not taking the money out
of the treasury." he said, "Mil from the
pockets of the working men. ' To at
tempt to Increase production by raising
prices when the crop Is waiting to be
harvested is a piece of supreme folly."
Mr. Walsh of Massachusetts also at-
' tacked the amendment, saying that the
. farmers 1 have benefited more from the
war than any other class of clUsens. He
declared that they had made a contract
with the president to sell wheat for $2.20,
and that if a higher price were allowed.
this contract would be woken.
An amendment to the senate amend
ment fixing the price at $2.40 was made
i by Representative McLaughlin of Mich
Igan and was adopted by the vote of ISO
to 101
Tha bin was then sent' to the senate.
where it was accepted without debate.

doubtedly, all these phases of tha sltua-

at this afternoon's conferences.
'' Allies Eager for Aetloa
As indicated in these dispatches last
night, events of the past few days In
Russia have created a situation where
in the allied governments, backed, it is
' understood, by the Indorsement of the
'.Versailles inter-allled war council, .have
almost reached a point where, if the
- United : States will not take part : in a
movement for intervention, the i will
proceed without this country. The views
of this council are said to have been
communicated to the president by Gen
eral TaskerJi. bubs, the American mem
ber of that body.
There can be no question that tha
president desires to malntalna position
from which he can have a voice in the
measures to be taken in Russia. His
previous attitude has been opposed to
. any action without invitation from Rus
sia, his reference to Russia , in his
Mount Vernon speech as "for the mo
ment unorganised and helpless how
ever, conceded the fact there la no gov
ernment in Russia qualified to give such
invitation. The Bolshevlki. who claim
authority, are more and more identified
. with the German influence Inspiring

apparently for the purpose of obtaining
better,, positions at various points. The
line was advanced at Hamel and at sev
eral ; points on the front between the
Olsa and Marne rivers.
On the southern part of this . region.
the Americans havei beaten back the
Germans at several points.
L In Italy the allies made a small ad
vance in the hills on both sides of the
Brenta and also In . the region between
the Plave and Capo Sile. All these have
been real local successes, which is
shown by, the number of prisoners and
machine guns captured.
.Neither side has taken the initiative
in , any large movement. The Germans
may be preparing; an attack at any
point in the whole theatre of war.
ir the Germans - have determined to
force a decision this year, they would
be likely to strike a blow between the
Somme and Seine rivers and then at
tack the allied left wing. If. on the
other hand, their plan were to hold what
they have,' then. In order to tire out
the" allies, they might attack in Mace
donia,- for possession of Salonikl would
be of great advantage to them.

London. July 6. A generally quiet day
wound up a week of brilliant local suc
cesses scored by American, French, Brit
ish and Italian troops on the Marne,
south of the Alsne, on the Somme, at
Albert in Flanders and on the vital
sectors of the Italian theatre. So suc
cessful were those blows struck against
the troops of the two Teuton empires
and so considerable the bags of pris
oners that, taken together, they ap
peared in the light of a local offensive
which may well have been the begin
ning of a large-scale counter-drive by
the allies, aimed at delivering a crush
ing answer in one huge stroke to all
the desperate offensives Ludendorff has
launched this year.
Another German Effort Expected
Meanwhile the German chief himself
is believed to be preparing for the last
big effort. Scarcely three , months of
good battle weather are left and another
drive without a decision will end the
year for the Germans with a lot of
"map victories" and with the tremen
dous afflux to allied military strength
in the form of America's millions to be
faced next year by a terrifically mauled
and worn war machine, and, even
worse, with a winter of unprecedented
misery staring the weary German peo
ple in the face.

Washington, July 6. Tremendous
preparations are being made by the
German high command for another of

These were the- outstanding facta de
veloped today by General Peyton C
March, chief of staff of the American
army, in his weekly conference with

For the Common Good
THE days of private schools, of exclusive libraries
or privileges for the few have passed.
Today our greatest institutions are for the common
good of the Nation and the community. . r

of moderate or limited means. , . n

The Finley institution, with its beautiful chapel, the ,J
use of which is without extra charge its restful, roofiwT " V
.for those in bereavement its 'private driveways,', re- i'
lieves the funeral of its. old associations'. ' ; J 'cl'i'A '' v
Because for years our profession did not see the' )
true virtue of publicity, some took, advantage of .the,.

At any price which may be. selected (without any
