The pro hibition party will continue to work as a political party along the same lines as in the past, its na tional committee decided today. Sentiment was against chang ing the party's name and enlarg ing its major issues or for closing its affairs. The committee voted for depor tation of aliens convicted of viola tion of the prohibition laws and disfranchisement- of citizens for the same offense. It called on the government to ask foreign nations to prevent ex portation of liquors to be used in the Ucnited States in violation of the prohibition laws and to soliit their cooperation in detecting and punishing such violators.

That these teachers should be held up to ridicule and reproach just be cause they declined to take part in a Red Cross drive savors of blackmail and extortion methods, which have a tendency to react unpleasantly and to lessen sym pathy with the organization.

The presence here of J. J. Ty nan cf J. O. B. Gunn, both of San Francisco, and representatives of Schwab gave strength to the ru mor. "I will neither deny or affirm it," said Mr. Todd.

He wanted to, see p. re tailer buy a dhorf loin of beef "and then "watch the retailer sell the, porter house and sirloin steaks from it over, his" counter. He thought this .would make a good story. The head of the market took the reporter into the "cooler" ' where he showed him a high class , side of beef, With a wooden skewer he marked off the short loin and said, "That is only 8 per cent of the weight of the . whole side and it is selling for four times as much as this piece (and he , marked off. the 'chuck which is about one-fourth of the aide of beef)." . 4 The wide variation in the wholesale price of various cuts from the same side of beef is caused largely by demand for the so-called choicer cuts. The others are, of course, just as wholesome. . - It seems as though more people than ever are. demanding choicer cuts, and their demand sets the price. If few people ask for the forequarter cuts, the price of forequarters will automatically drop to a figure low enough to induce people to buy because of cheapness. Even though certain cuts sell for relatively high prices, other cuts, due to lack of demand, sell so low that our profit from all sources over a period of five years . averaged only a fraction of a cent a pound. It U competition between consumers for the choice cuts that keeps prices for those cuts relatively high; an. equalizing demand for alt parts of the carcass would benefit producer, packer, retailer and consumer. : ...
