BREAD RISE MUST GOME, SAY BAKERS

Although inevitable, so change in the retail price of bread , will be put into effect by local bakers until after the yearly convention of the Indiana Association of the Baking Industry at Indianapolis on Jan. 28-29, they say. "The price will have to be advanced," said one, "because materials, flour and labor have reached such a

level that the present price of "bread will .cause ruin. We do not want to

raise the price, but we are compelled to do so."

John Zwlssler and Fred Bayer were

Richmond representatives at a meeting of bakers from the fifth zone at

Muncle Wednesday. Representatives

irom every taking; concern In Rich

mond will probably attend the annual

meeting at Indianapolis the latter part

of the month. The Question of advancing the price

of bread was taken up at Wednesday's

meeting at Muncle. The wholesale price of bread Is 8 to 10 cents for the pound loaf. Only one case was noted, however, where the wholesale price was 8 oents a pound, and this was caused by the close competition. Richmond bakers are selling their product at oents a pound. . The advance will probably come about Feb. 15, It was thought He things about this time a general price of 12 cents for the pound loaf and 17

or 18 cents for pound and half loaf, will become effective throughout the

state.

Dr. A. J. Freudenberg, Mrs. Nettie Duffies and the Duffles home.

Police officials of Markesan, Wis., are working on the theory that the arrest of Dr. A. J. Freudenberg may solve the mys

tery surrounding the death of at least one other member of his wife's family. Dr. Frendenberg is charged with killing his mother-in-law. Mrs. Nettie Duffies, who died November 1, last year, by Injecting a solution of mustard into her bladder. Mrs. Duffies' second husband, Alfred, died two years ago. Police are planning to exhume his body and the bodies of other members of the family who

have died within the last three years. Mrs. Duffies left an estate valued at half a million dollars to her daughter. Although Mrs. Minnie Willard, a nurse, testified before the corner's Jury that Mrs. Freudenberg told her she believed the doctor was responsible for her mother's death, Mrs. Freudenberg now says she will devote the entire fortune willed her in clearing her husband.

(By Associated Press) LONDON, Jan. 16. Attention of the

British people is fixed on the near east where recent Bolshevik successes have carried the Red Russian armies

almost to the threshold of India, Per

sia, Mesopotamia and Asiatic Turkey. Cabinet members and chiefs of the

British army and navy are today in Paris, whither they were hastily summoned yesterday and are conferring

with Premier Davia Lloyd George on

military and naval matters in connec

tion. It. is believed, with conditions in southwestern Asia. Apprehension was aroused by the

Issuance of a semi-official statement

yesterday pointing out the situation

that has arisen through the collapse of General De.niklne'3 army in southern Russia, and Bolshevik penetration of the trans-Caspla. Not only was it admitted this menace from a Russian Bolshevik Invasion of the. near east was very real, but it was pointed out that Internal conditions in Persia, Aurkey and Afghanistan were threatening. In Mesopotamia, too, the British are forced to contend -with difficulties arising from racial dlssentlons. It was said that a Soviet advance that captured the Crimea would make the Black Sea virtually a Russian Bolshevik lake, and It was further Indicated that Great Britain sould hope for little help from the new republics of Georgia, Daghstan and Azerbaijan, which are directly in the path of the Soviet advance. While there is a possibility the Bol-

shevlkl may launch an overwhelming

attack against Poland, the statement issued yesterday showed preoccupa

tion of officialdom waa over the debacle of Denikine's armies and the rapid advance of the Soviet forces to

ward the Persian and Argnan tronuer,

The situation which now confronts

Great Britain and more or less, Japan and China, is not of cudden growth,

however. For the past two montns

or more the Bolshevikl have had an

almost unbroken series of successes which have swept forward on all fronts, where their forces are believed

to be formidable.

Admiral Kolchak's army in Siberia

seems to have been completely defeat

ed if not dispersed. The Reds are today far east of Krasnoyarsk and are moving nearer Irkutsk, while reports

from Siberia have detalt almost entirely with operations along the Siberian railway, occasional advices have indicated the Bolshevik have moved far south of that line and have established themselves near the Mongolian frontied south or Irkutsk. BASLE, Jan. 16. -Odessa, the port of Russia on the Black sea, has been occupied by the Bolshevikl, according to newspaper dispatches received here. Methodist Attempt Merger After 74 Years Separation
