FARMER LAMENTS
CITY IGN
Answers Grocers Who Con-Is!:
tend That He Keeps Prices Up. Tn answer to the claim of some of the grocers that the farmers were holding up the price of potatoes as published in The News-Times last week the following letter has been received from one of the latter with the request that it be published verbatim: "It seems to me that the retail grocers in Mishawaka are going it one too strong on the farmers. They ought to be ashamed of themselves to put a piece in the t paper like they did about the farm ers and their potatoes. If they can't handle a bushel of potatoes for 60 cents a bushel, how is the farmer going to handle them for $1.40. "Now let us figure on both sides. First the farmer buys potatoes for ?l.-5 a peck, plows and drags his ground five or six times, spends many days spraying and bugging them, then if .it gives any he digs and loads them up for the market. Here comes the worst of all. He asks a storekeeper if he needs any potatoes. Nope, got plenty even though he ain't got a bushel in his cellar. But still he asks how much do you want for them. The farmers tells him $1.50. No, too many potatoes coming in. I'll give you $1.40 and that is the storekeeper, when he buys I'll give you, and when he sells I want that. "What I would like to see and the government ought to do is make some of them easy-chair people take a whack at the farm once. Just one month or week to give them an idea how things are raised and where the eating stuff all comes from. Now Just look, the farmer sells his milk for 16 cents a gallon. When you want to buy a gallon of ice cream, $1.2 5. Is there any reason why farmers get discouraged and move to town, too?" CITY COURT DOES THRIVING BUSINESS A rush of business was experienced ! in city court Monday morning. The most Important case on the docket was an assault charge by Mrs. Edna Akers against her ex-husband. Earl Akers. Akers was found not guilty by Special Judge Charles Bingham, the testimony showing that Akers didn't strike or make any effort to attack his former wife, merely telling her he would if she didn't cease talking to him. Akers, however, was convicted on an assault and battery charge preferred by Mrs. Akers last Friday morning in the city court and fined $25 and costs. Ralph Firestone of Goshen pleaded cuiltv to a t harge of riding a
motorcycle while intoxicated and he carried out with greater effiwas fined $25 and costs by Judge j ciency. According to Mrs. McCollum Feig.

WORKS BOARD HOLDS REGULAR MEETING
A petition for the construction of a sidewalk on the east dde of Columbia st. from Fourth st. to Eini coin way was received by the board j of works Monday morning from i many property owners on Columbia The. n,HUcr was rcff'rrefi to the Residents of Fisher et. also petitioned the board for the installation of a tire hydrant at the upper end of the street, .'aiming that the one now located at the opposite end of the street is beyond the interurban tracks and in tho event of a fire the hose would have to be laid across the tracks. The petition was rejected because of the water main at that point being but three inches in diameter and would serve property in that neighborhood in cae of a fire as well from the present plug as a new one at the far end of the street. Sunt. Klein recommended that a motor vehicle be purchased for the water department to replace one of the horses that will soon have to be discarded. The matter was referred to Pres't McDonough of the board and Supt. Klein of the department with power to act. TO BE TURNED OVER TO FEDERAL AUTHORITIES Louis Aneono, a Chicago traveling musician, who was arrested here Thursday on a charge of having failed to register for conscription, will be taken to South Bend today and held for federal officers. Ancono went to the police station to ask permission to play his accordion on the streets and Chief of Police Kreiter asked him his age, to which he replied that he was 29 years old. Asked if he had registered he said he had not because he thought he didn't have to on account of not being in any one town more than two or three days at a time. The chief locked him up and has twice telegraphed to an address in Chicago where Ancono said his wife lh'ed, and the reply came back that there was "no such address. The prisoner gave the number as 1002 W. Morgan st., West Pullman. BEACH APPROPRIATION WAS INSUFFICIENT In reference to the bathing beach story which appeared in The NewsTimes Sunday, Mrs. C. E. McCollum, president of the Woman's club, informed a reporter Sunday evening that a committee of metnbers of the club had visited Merrifield park after the appropriation of $"-50 had been made by the city council and after investigation had convinced themselves that the sum set aside by the council was altogether inadequate for the purposes of putting the beach in order. After giving the matter consideration they decided that the best thing to do was to wait until the proposed new bridge across the river at Lincoln way E. i was completed when the work could ENJOY SUNDAY PICNIC The F. G. F. club (40 good fellows) held a picnic at Eagle lake at Culve-'s grove yesterday. The party was made up of 4 0 automobiles each containing one or more guests of the members. The picnickers comprised many of the substantial business men of the city. Games of various sorts featured the day, while the picnic dinner was one of the most enjoyable affairs ever participated n. Twenty pounds of wienies, cooked to a turn, helped satisfy the appetites of the crowd. "A regular old fashioned time" was the way the members characterized the outing. The party left the city at . o'clock returning 12 hours later. FORMER RESIDENT DIES SUNDAY IN BEL0IT, WIS.

Commissioner Coleman Suggests Use of War Prisoners on Highways. WASHINGTON. l. C. July "We must as a nation wake up to the fact that roads are not or.h necessary in times of peace, but are of the greatest importance for the mobilization of armies in times of war." asserts State Highway Commissioner George P. Coleman of Virginia, who is also president of the American association t;f state highway officials, with which organization the American Automobile association cooperated in the passage of the federal aid road act. "A marginal highway along th Atlantic coast, the Gulf of Mexico, the southwestern border, and the Pacific slope, and, later, along the northern boundary line, should receive the endorsement of all the people in this country interested in its protection, and its future development. All of us are possibly alive to the fact that road.? are necessary for military purposes, but very few people realize that in the construction of the Important highways of this country many years will be consumed. Therefore, it is important that this great work should bo started at an early date and pushed with as great rapidity as possible to its final completion. Can't Neglect Tributaries. "While main artery roads command priority and require rugged and costly construction, the tributaries must not be neglected, for in many instances these "feeders" upon occasion serve a vital purpose even though not subjected to heay traffic except intermittently. If the national govern mer.t relieves a state of that road which has the greatest military worth, it still remains the bounden obligation of the commonwealth to supply a comprehensive state system of the most important inter-county roads and then to give some .aid to the counties in the building and maintenance of the lesser roads. It is almost impossible to say positively what roads may meet the military emergencies, ami in consequence there must be a corelated plan, the erst of which must be shared by the national government and state and county. "It has been suggested that war prisoners can be logically employed in military road construction, and one finds himself very much inclined to agree with the suggestion of the national committee on prisons that we utilize whatever foreicn prisoners we now hold or will possess. Most of these men will undoutbedly ne kept in southern states where the need of trunk read construction awaits the earliest possible attention." 5 Dutch Fishing Vessels Sunk in Zone of Safety AMSTERDAM, July .10. A German submarine Sunday sank five Dutch fishing vessels Is miles from the Dutch coast between Scheveningen and Ymuiden. SCH E V E N I N G E N , Netherlands, July oO. Fisherman arriving here assert that the Dutch fishing boats sunk Saturday off the Dutch coast by a German submarine were within the so-called safety zone when d-stroyed. They believe that altogether 10 vessels were sent to the bottom. LIVING COST IN HOLLAND SOARS UPWARD SAYS STATISTICAL BUREAU THE HAGUE. Netherlands, July ?3. The enormous rise in the cost of living in neutral Holland is clearly reflected in figures just published by the official statistical bureau, which show that the retail prices of 23 articles of common use have risen from the relative figure of 114 in 191" n E2 in April. 1917. taking the standard of 1 r o as representing the prices ruling for such commodities in the year 1MO. The figures appear the more remarkable when it is remembered that the Netherland is largely an agricultural country. As a result of the shortage and dearness of coal, th'1 relative f.guro representing the average prices of coke in eight municipal gasworks of large rities rose from 9"."S in 1914 (taking the year b'H as the 10 0 standard) to 2c.".."' in April last. A strict coal and coke rationing system has now bfn established throughout the country. Moreover, the restriced and more expensive coal supplies have led to limitation of Holland's services and the raiding a drastic railroad of fares and freight rates. Despite economies, various branches of industry are 1 eing seriously hampered by lack of f 1. This factor ro iple! with a sh"r:;ige of raw materials, has led to a substantial reduction of working hours in the txti!-- industry, for instance, and indeed, to the closing of a number of factori and resultant unemploymet.

SHIPBUILDING POLICY TO BE LEFT TO CAPPS
WASHINGTON, July 2 n.r or. mimtion of a shipbuilding policy wi'l be left by the roririnized shipping board largely to Rfar Admiral Cr.pps. who has succeeded Maj.-Gen. Go.-thaN as central manager of the emergency i!eet corporation. The hoard, it was le.irr.ed Sunday nicht, will specialize on op, ration of ships. the direction of traiEe and questions of rates. Admiral Capps is understood to be of the opinion that all the ships tb.it possibly can b huilt should h obstructed. There will be r.o question of steel or wooden ships but a!l yards will work to their utmost capacity. Tho shippir.-' board Intends to obtain a a traffic m.ui.icrr the lest shipping expert it c3n uet.

GIVES UP LIFE TO Terre Haute Man Saves One But is Swept Into Whirlpool. TERRE HAFTE, Ind., July HO. Dennis McCarty, 42 years old, lost his life in the Wabash river Sunday evening in an effort to rescue Miss Pearl Parrish, IS years old. after he had assisted in saving the life of Miss Betty chaefer, 1 years old. Members of B Co., second Indiana infantry, succeeded in bringing out Mis.s Parrish. but McCarty was! swept into a whirlpool. His bodv was not recovered. The young women had spent the day along the river end plunged In for a final swim when the current swept (hem towards the whirlpool, .r cries for help brought Mc carty, a brick worker, whose brave! act saved their lives. While he was struggling in the water cries of companions of the trirls brought the soldiers to the scene. WAR COSTS BROUGHT HOME BY M'ADOO The statement of Se-c'y of Treasury McAdoo that Ö.OOO'OO.OOO of additional credit would be required in the current fiscal year, the appropriations pending in congress, the rapid use of credit by the government in preparations for our military campaign against Germany, and in providing for the needs of our allies, clearly indicate that there li'S ahead an early offering of a second installment of Liberty bonds. The American people are beginning to realize what Is involved in our participation in this war. The draft is striking close home, and the tremendous expenditures by the government are bringing the subject to our notice in a business way. It should not bo b.st sight of, however, that in this tremendous transference of credit to th-1 government is an incentive for business activity and moderate profits. Our business must be prosperous in order to prov je the fieh credit to be loaned to the government and to meet the requirements of taxation. These are hard, practical problems that mu-t be solved, regardless of p-t theoriesand personal inconvenience. The problem of financing the war is a big one that must e solved in a practical way. Th'-oiies are ail right so long ar thy are practical. The sooner that impta tkal theoriesare shelved, until after this war is over, the better it will re for tb oountry-at-large. There has h'-en exhibited in this rourfy to . it a contract between big practical busin'.--- iu-tb"d and small pditi's in the nritter of simp'e economic facts -and tb.r'.! intelligent under standing and application.
