CROWN POINT The basketball season opened for Crown Point last evening with a double victory, the first and second team of the Icx-al high school taking tho respective teams of "Wheeler. Ind., into camp by scores of 35 to 15 and 41 i "6. In the oprningr contest tho local Ave ha1 the best of the argument all through the. game and for cub player showed a convincing superiority over their opponents. Tho main contest, however, was much more evenly matched, the Wheeler team closing up a wide margin in the second half and at one time by a clever burst of team play had the local five looking to their laurels. Individually the players on both team-s were about as evenly matched as it is possible to find them, Crown Point winning its Kama by better team work when scores were rnoat needed. The Wheeler team ij handicapped by not having- any gymnasJum to practice in. and considering thi, the visitors put up a wonderful game. Wheeler won from Valparaiso's best last Friday and the local team have an offer from the Valpo team early in the season and accordingto the dope should win over the' Porter county boys.

THE TIMES

VOICE OF plio.p lTe A LETTER FROM LAWRENCE BECKER Washington, p. C.. Nov. 23. 1916. Editor Times, Hammond. Indiana. Dear Sir: in The Lake County Times for November 11th appear a printed report of a speech I delivered at Hobart. which minconntrues and twlsta niy words in criticising the German-American newspapers. For instance: "I lis (Backer's) conclusions were not bared upon tho opposition or these VPrs to President Wilson, but upon their adherence to the exploded idea of old Germany." My remarks were the exact Opposite to any surr, conclusion. These newspapers do not adhere to any of the "ide-as of old Germany" as to Its social juxtice and welfare laws, city jsrovernmen t, public ownership and operation of public utilities, but are in constant opposition to the men or party that advocate such Ideas. Germany prior to the present war waj tlie social experiment station for the world, and its institutions were studied and advocated by the progressive leaders of all parties In America, namely, late Governor Altseld. Hon. W. J. Bryan. Hon. A. J. Beveridge, Dr. Frederick C. Howe, late Tom L Johnson, and many others, and even by Roosevelt; also by many of our university professors, but not by tho secular German-American newspapers, for the reason that these newspapers with few exceptions are i;ke our metropolitan press, controllel and subsidized by our plutocratic exploiters. 1 did claim credit for the Democratic party for the Federal Reserve Act, tha Federal Farm Loan Act. the act creating a Government-owned merchant marine, the Government marine insurance act, the act providing for a Government-owned armor plant, and the Government-owned Alaskan railroad.-, the coal and mineral conservation act, and many similar acts based upo-i Germanic ideas; that President Wilson and the Democratic party stood for tho extension of the function of government along- Germanic ideals, and that Mr. Hughes stood for a crass plutocratic individualism under which an "Efficient America'' was impossible; that these newspapers in their support of Mr. Hughes were traitors to the progressive movement in the United Slates which is ba.M upon (ermanic ideas; that Australia, NewZealand. Switzerland, and other coun1 trie;i have Copied those ideas, and thAt David Lloyd George, prior to the pres. cnt war. advocated these Ideas, and that the Liberal Party was kept, in power because it stood for the BUmarckian program of social Justice and social welfare for Great Britain. How your correspondent could draw tile conclusion from my speech as re ported in your paper that J was opposed to Germanic Ideas and considered them exploded is a mystery to m-, unless L deliberately intended to place me in a wrong position with your readers. I consider the' report of that speech as published in your paper as wholly foreign to my views and contrary to the word I used. I do not blame your yaper, as you published identically the same report as appeared in the Hobart News. Yours truly, UWREXC'lt BECKER.

Steel Isn't Eair to Railroads . The Springfield (Mass.) Republican takes the United States Steel corporation to task for booasting rails $5 a ton, a move which means about $5,000,000 more in gross earnings to the Gary steel plant's rail mill. However, It Looks After Worlnn. However, while the corporation ma have raised the price of rails, bar steel, sheet steel and tin plate, it. i.s taking care of its employes by a third increase to be made in December, amounting to 10 per cent, and expenditure of millions at Gary and elsewhere for new plants and new equipment. It is estimated tha tthe new wage increase at 'Gary steel works will cost the corporation at least l,000,00'i more a year and the increase for all Gary employes $2,000,000 a year. Increases this year will total an advance in wages of 25 per cent. The Republican editor says: "At a time when the American railroads need friends the United States Steel Corpoartion and other companies engaged in iron and steel manufacture are not to be accounted such, but thcontrary. There is certainly no justification in morals for the advance of $5 In the price of steel railsf which has just been promulgated. 'For a long time steel rails held at the uniform price of $2S a ton. except when they were sold abroad for less. Last spring the rrice was put up to 135 for open hearth and $33 for Bessemer rails. Now comes this new lift by th'i United States Steel Corporation, whlcn has been earning 50 per cent on it common stock. In order to maintain that high rate this latest push of $3 a ton does not seem warranted. Just as much ore can be taken from the company's mines as a -year ago, and it costs little more to haul it. Nor has the cost of proJucing the steel and rolling the rails increased to such an Youth

CROPS RDT IN FIELDS, U.SJTT.. IS TOLD Gary Farmer Tells of Selling Pumpkins Never " Gathered. CHICAGO. Nov. 23. s part of the Federal investigation of high food prices in progress here. Federal agents directed by United States District Attorney Clyne today sought evidence bearing on reports that produce dealers in territory tributary to Chicago are permitting fruits and vegetables to rot in the field that, pri.vs may be increased. Evidence obtained will be submitted to the Federal grand jury now considering the food question here. Experience of Oary Tanner. B. L. Brundage, a farmer of Gary, Ind., reported that he had sold his crop of seven acres of pumpkins and received the money. When the crop ripened and the pumpkins were permitted to rot in the field hetr)ed to find the buyer, and learned that the name and address he had given were fictitious. That similar conditions prevail elsewhere and that speculators are buying potatoes, cucumbers, cabbages, pumpkins, apples' and other fruits and vegetables and permitting them to rot unpicked have been rumored in the Federal investigation from time to time. Complaint also was received that a combination to raise the price of beans exists and that large quantities of them, both in bulfc and in can, are being held in Norfolk, Va.. Philadelphia and Saginaw, Mich. The storing of these beans, according to the report of the Federal bureau, has Increased the cost of canned beans 60 per cent and dry beans 40 per cent in the last six months. Evidence of Collusion. A report said to contain evidence of collusion between wholesale and retail dealers to advance the prices of food was turned over to Mr. Clyne by Hinton G. Clabaugh. head of the local bureau of the department of Justice. The report is the result of several weeks' investigation. HAMMOND HUNTERS !
