REPORT MIXES LUMBER MEN IN PRICE SCANDAL Federal Trade Commission Charges Combine to Hold Up Prices. DATA SENT TO CONGRESS WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—Lumber manufacturers of the country, through ten regional associations, are able to control production, stifle competition and so prevent price declines, the Federal trade commission charged In a special report today. The report, with a mass of seised correspondence to support these charges, was forwarded to Congress. The evidence also has been given to the Department of Justice. It was announced. Particular interest attached to the report because the price of lumber has been a large factor in the almost complete baiting of home hui'.ding, which haa resulted in a housing shortage and high rents. At one period, the Southern Pine Associtilon, according to the report, published a barometer chart of production throughout the United States with marginal cotes, one of which reads: ‘‘Market advancing—increase production." SCHEME ON BdTEBSED SITUATION. “Had the current situation been reversed,” wrote the commission, “marginal notes would hare neen applied as follows: ‘Market declining—decrease production. - ” The report also contained a description of an association of retail lumber ‘ dealers in Chicago, which, it said, parcels out to each concern a certain share of . the entire retail lumber business of j that city. This is called the Chicago j Retail Lumber Dealers" Association, j When one concern sells more than its share. It is obliged to pay Into a general fund a certain proportion of its profits, j the commission reported, and this Is divided among concerns which sold less Than their shares. Again the report said that In Kansas City a group of lumber manufacturers In 1920 received a margin of profit of $26.30 uu a unit of lumber which cost them ?25.60 to produce. In 1919 the margin of profit was only $8 94; in 191$, $3.41, and in 1916 $1.96. This data was obtained, the commission said, from A. A. Davis, statistician of the Kansas City Exchange, a bureau maintained by the Southern Pine Assodaiioa. TELEGRAM IS SUBMITTED. v The commission submitted a telegram sent from Washington Feb. 2S. 1920. by Edward Hines to E. G. Griggs of Tacoma, Wash. The telegram read in part: ‘"General lumber prices today no higher and in many cases not so high as all commodities that come in competition with lumber or where used. Farming community receiving higher prices for their products relatively than lumber selling sos, and never more able linancially to lumber. Rents in all large cities have advanced 40 to 70 per cent, hence able to buy. Think would be serious mistake to offer to reduce price*, but am of opinion it would show broad guaged policy to stop further advance, but not lower prices.” Practically all the lumber used in the country comes from ten principal regions and in each region the biggest manufacturers and dealers are banded together in local organization!, the report said. ‘ORGANIZATIONS ARE CONNECTED. These orgam itions are in turn connected through the National Lumber Manufacturers’ Association. The report quoted letters said to have passed between officials of the various associations, discussing prices, stocks on hand, possibilities of raising prices and policies toward national legislation. One of the officials whose letters were quoted was Charles Keith, president of the Southern Pine Association. The report quoted a letter said to have been written by Keith, in which he set forth a plan under which the Government would be askpd to authorise lumber manufacturers to limit production as a move to conserve the national lumber resources. A letter said to have been written by Edward Hines argued that “if the price of yellow pine can be maintained, everything e'sv can taka csr of itself.” FIFTY MAY FACE LUMBER INDICTMENTS CHICAGO, Jan. 10.—Hearing of testimony in the bearing of alleged graft in the building trade activities here were completed toda ybefore the Federal grand Jury.

Progressives to Keep Up Fight on Reaction WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—Senate progressives today served notice of their intention to continue the fight on reaction. Through a statement issued by Senator Hirman Johnson of California, the Senators composing th? progressive group warned that though political leaders may have forgotten progressivism. It still is cherished by the great inarticulate mats. The statement clearly indicated the dec termination of the progressives to the opening gun of their campaign when the Senate takes up the motion to reconsider the Poindexter anti-strike bill. Senator La Follette will call np that measure today, he announced, unless prevented by Senate business.

Oklahoma to Be Shaken If Clam Smith Hamon Is Forced to Bare Past
ARDMORE, Okla., Jan. 10.—How much of Clara Smith Hamon’s past will be bareil for the curious throng expected to pack the little courthouse here when her trial Is held will depend on the prosecution. The young woman. It was indicated today, has no desire to avenge herself on the man now dead who intended to discard her to advance himself politically. That she was madly in love with him no one here doubts, but it was also made clear that she will fight hard for her liberty and, if necessar to save herself, will spare no one and will bring into the trial as witnesses men who stand for wealth and power in the Southwest. This cose, which has excited nationwide interest, may shake Oklahoma with Its revelations and send reverberations into high places outside. It may develop into a dramatic battle between two women, one fighting for liberty, the other to defend the name her children bear. Then, again, it may result in nothing
M’CRAY TAKES OATH OF OFFICE AS_ GOVERNOR (Continued From Pose One.) upon its chief executive and increased prosperity ami happiness to ail the people. The hour of my deliverance is now at hand. I feel like'saying. “Lord now lettest thou Thy servant depart in peace.” Gladly did I take up the burdens four years ago and gladly do 1 lay them down. I took them up with no illusions and with a somewhat extended knowledge of men and the affairs of Indiana. I lay them down realizing, far better than any one else, how very much of whatever good there has been In the last four years is due to tin- unselfish purpose and the unfailing loyalty and devotion of those who have been associated with the administration. ASSUMES RESPONSIBILITY. I cheerfully asuume full responsibility for whatever of bad there 1* in it. To the honest critics of my official acts 1 give thanks. They have often pointed out my mistakes and helped me to avoid the pitfalls on every side To those who may have criticized to serve ulterior purposes I have no words of consure, preferring to leave them to the condemnation ov their own consciences and the judgment of the coming years. Mr. McCray, the next four years wil! not be easy years. They will be the most difficult of all your life. Busy nnd wide as your experience has been, you will learn during that time to “beware of the Greeks bearing gifts.” Men will come to you with tho hand of Esau, but with the voice cf Jacob—come to you in the guise of friends nnd in the interest of the public service when they are but the representatives of special interests end come to you becJHise they wish to serve their own selfish purposes. When vou reach the end of your administration and look back over the records, containing many mistakes, its it will, mistakes that you will afterward see with clearer vision than any oue else, then 1 trust that you will have the satisfaction of realizing that never in any instance did you knowingly sacrifice the public Interests for personal ends or partisan expediency. Following Mr. McCray’s address, the benediction was pronounced by the Rev. Mr. Harper. The Governor took the oath with a Bible presented bj the Rev. Charles Sumner Williams of the Bethel Church, a colored congregation. RECEPTION FOLLOWS.

Domestic Trains in Love Tangle on Tracks Again CHICAGO, Jan. 10. —Two domestic trains that were derailed and all but wreekeu by a much too fervid romance were bark on the track nnd running smoothly today, following the reconciliation of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Auther and Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Franzen, principals in the latest love tangle. Mr. and Mrs. Franzen were back in tu“lr home at Madison, each holding tht promise of the other to be “ever true.” Mr. and Mrs. Auther were back in their Highland Park home seeking to forget the mad adventure that separated them. The reconciliation between the couples was accomplished late Saturday night after Auther and Mrs. Franzen had been brought back from St. Louis. Franzen and Auther parted the best of friends when ins Frunze ns left Chicago for Madison There was no clash, but there was less cordiality between Mrs. Franzen and Mrs. Auther. Franzen today was to formally withdraw the charges of larceny he bad filed against Anther at Madison. Mrs. Anther was expected to withdraw her charge of wife desertion against her husband. ,
more than a perfunctory court proceeding to render a verdict of acquittal after brief testimony. Interest, centers on whether Judge Thomas AV. Champion, who will ait as trial judge, will name a special prosecutor. Attorney General Freeling lias already been ordered by Governor Robertson to prosecute the case and, as it is said he belongs to the political group that, opposed the Hamon interests, it may lie to his political advantage to make a vigorous prosecution. The defense is waiting until the prosecution shows its cards. “Until we see what the prosecution intends to do we shall make no plans for calling witnesses,” said C. A. Coakley, the woman's attorney. Meanwhile uncertainty as to when the trial will be held continues. “As tilings look now. the case will not be reached on the docket until March,” said Judge Champion,
Senator Calls 'or Purpose of Balloon Flight Threatens Inquiry to Fix Blame for Misadventure of Fliers. WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. Senator King of Utah today asked the Navy Department for information about the conditions under which the three navy balloonists who were lost in Canada began their flight and for what purpose they made the flight. Senator King declared that If the department’s reply seems to him to require it he will Introduce a resolution for ati investigation of the flight. Among criticisms heard here In connection with the flight of the three aeronauts, are: That the ascent during unfavorable weather conditions in a llghter-than-alr crafr, which was not even of the dirigible class, was ill advised. The Nary Department has said this flight was authorized. That there was no good purpose to be accomplished by the flight, since meteorologists already knew about the winter air currents over Cauadfi. That the inen were not equipped with workable instruments to (ell their position and location. None of these criticisms bus been made openly and protiHMy will not be until a full report of the flight is in hand. There is no desire among naval men or Congressmen to eritlze the fliers, whose bravery is acknowledged. .Secretary Daniels dented that a board of Inquiry had been ordered to investigate the flight. FEAR ACCIDENT CAUSES DELAY MATTICE, Ontario, Jan, 10. — Renewed fears for the safety of the three Ataeric.in balloonists returning to civilization rom the shores of James Bay were felt here today. They are overdue here ou their dogsled trip down the frozen Misfcinabl River. The fact that unusually mild weather lias prevailed, softening the. lie, gave rise to fears that the aeronauts, Lieutenants Hinton, Kloor and Farrell, may have met with an accident. The Americans were understood to have left Moose Factory equipped with the fastest dogs in this region and with the best Indian guides. Os course, they are not accustomed to traveling by snowMines and may be having slew progress Theories that they had lost tiieir trail and wandered into the woods were not accepted by the natives, as, they said, the Indian guides accompanying them could not gat lost. George McLeod, the Indian who brought out first word of the safety of the Americans at Moose Factory, said he had made a poor guess as to the time it would take to inako the trip to Mattlce. His pew prediction was that they would arrive within twenty-four hours. BRANCH ON JOB IS GIRDED FOR OMNIBUS FRAY (Continued From I’age One.) parliamentary referee. With that belief firm in my mind I have always Interested myself in matters of legislation. “I lave opposed what is known us centralization of government,” he declined, recalling to the minds of many his open tilt with Governor Goodrich over what the Lieutenant Governor charged was the growing encroachment by the executive office. “I have favored, ou the part of local communities, the right of self-govern-ment,” Mr. Bush continued. This declaration was in line with the fight Mr. Bush made against certain provisions of the Goodrich tax law. The Lieutenant Governor declared that pursue the same course in the funire, and that he would always lie interested in the actions of the Senate. lie praised Mr. Branch and referred to him as a personal friend and schoolmate. CAUCUSES CALLED “TREASON.” The retiring official uttered n warning against caucuses, declaring them to be “little short of treason to personal, representative government.” The Seriate convened at 10 o’clock. Representative Oscar F. Lydy of Noblesvllle led in prayer. A resolution was adopted expressing sympathy to former Senator L. P. Dobyns of Greensburg because of the recent death of his wife.

Reynolds, general secretary of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, to all the Chambers of Commerce and Commercial Clubs in Indiana, asking ehcti organization to send at least one member to be present at the “invisible guest” luncheon in the Riley room at the Claypool Hotel, Pan. 17, at which Herbert Hoover will tell of the urgent need of funds for.

Letters were also se.r t today by Mr. Reynolds to each of the Indianapolis lunch clubs calling the!'* attention to the “invisible guest" banquet and urging their cooperation. MOVE IS MADE TO SIDETRACK ELDER LEMAUX (Continued From Page One.) well known that the various schemes devised have all been without success. The Leniaux backers, who got busy ns soon as the administration began releasing the Irving Lemaui talk, positively stated that the son's election to the city chairmanship would have absolutely no bearing upon th ■ candidacy of the father. Mr. Lmaux has not announced his candidacy. To those who have asked him to make the race he has uniformly replied that he is not a candidate but Is not saying that be will not be, it Is understood. At the same time that they were announcing that Irving Leniaux Is to be the new city committee head the administration people ware talking strongly of Thomas Stevenson, city attorney, or A. L. Taggart, president of the board of public safety, ns possible administration cvndldntee for mayor. It is reallabi.v reported, however, that when the administration leaders asked Mr Taggart whether he would like to boonme a candid: to lie replied with much vigor that he would not. Mr. Stevenson, having been actively engaged in politics for a number of years and now being Repnblican chairmnn of tho Fourth ward, Is understood to be in a much more receptive mood. PRECINCT BOUNDARY CHANGE UP. Next to the city chairmanship battle the change in precinct boundary Hues was the most important political matter in tlie minds of politicians. The citv primary election will be held May 3. The law provides that any change in precinct boundary Hues must be made sixty days before the election. Thus it will be necessary to make any contemplated changes before March 3. Tbe city conn *ll will tnuke these changes. Since the administration wing Is in control of tile council following the election of Russell Willson as president n week ago, it is presumed that any change will be In the nature of a gerrymander to make more certain the election >f an administration candidate for mayor on May 3. It was reported that some lenders arc in favor of changing the city precinct boundaries to correspond with those of the county precincts inside the city. There are more county than city precincts. Borah Contends Over Inaugural Expense WASHINGTON, Jun. 10.—A resolution, denying any further appropriations for the expenses of the Harding inauguration and notifying iufiugural committees that no government building will be turned over to them for a ball was Introduced today by Senator Borah lldnho) who attempted to bare it adopted at once. Objection by Smoot (Utah) prevented this. Borah's resolution said that more than two million men are unemployed in the United States, that. 3,000.000 children are starving in Europe while appeals are made to Americans to contribute to relief funds; that this nation lias a debt of $24,000 000,000; current expenses of $4,000,000,000 a year; a deficit of $2,000, (iOO; that taxes nre high, and that the Republican party pledged the strictest economy In the late campaign. “In defiance of these pledges,” the resolution continues, "it is planned to have the most ostentatious inaugural ever seen in tills or any other country.”

Dance Halls Offer Checking Privilege for *Old Ironsides 9 Up-to-date dance halis of Indianapolis maintain special privileges for women to check their corsets, it was learned today. If the women go on the dance floors wearing corsets they frequently are dubbed "Old Ironside” or "Iron Backs” by their dancing partners. The high school youth originated the first title for the girls of his age. Then the girls started shedding their corsets in the women's restrooms and ou one occasion., according to a high school girl, "a chair was piled high” with them. Ma put her foot down on this practice, but Old Graybeard is stealing the plunder of the kids and he is getting the desired results. The older girls, who do not have to yield to parental pressure, are finding little use for their staves on the polished floors, and the dance hall manage* ments must keep pace with the times. The dances with which the corset particularly Interferes are said to be the “camel walk," the “shimmey” and the “cootie glide.” Some girls who object to removing their corsets are up in arms over the practice of their sisters. The men hesitate to dance with the stavebound women in the modern steps because their movements are restricted.
