HUN TO ABOLISH
PRICE CONTROL
Information receive:? from abroad
by tho (Juarantee Tiusfc Company of
New York indicates a marked (.urease
in tho agitation in (Icrman;.1 favoring
abolition of the price control system
which has been in operation since
December, 1JM9, and under which
export licenses are refu.-ed unless
proof is furnished that :-ufl':cicnt,y
high price has been charge': lor tho
goods to be exported.
The effort of the systoir. in some
cases, has been to cause lover prices
at home, the manufacturer finding
compensation by making foreign
purchasers pay; but in many instances,
notably the potash industry
the policy resulted in a refu.a! by
foreigners to pay the price a :V
The United States ceased to take
German potash, and the German iron
trade has been unable to meet the
competition of Belgium, Luxembourg
and Lorraine.
In other instances, the home trade
has been neglected on account of the
high prices which could be obtained
abroad, and a shortage occured at
home. The government has so fat
made concessions by allowing a large
number of articles of minor importance
to be exported without license,
and no additional list is under consideration.
In order to obtain regular supplies
of raw materials for the use of German
industries, foreign firms have
been allowed to obtain interests in
German concerns and companies have
been formed abroad in which German
companies have taken stock. This

policy ha* t^Vn followed in the shipping,
textile*and metal industries by
arrangements with Americans in the
oil and margarine business with the
Dutch, in the rubber industry with
the British, etc. These arrangenot
only assure the regular importation
of raw materials, but also are of
assistance in providing markets for
the goods manufactured from them.
Krupps are employing 12,000 morr*
workmen now than in the month immediately
before the outbreak of the
war. This total does not include
workmen in five other manufacturing
undertakings which are controlled by,
or work in allance, with, the Krupps.
At Kssen, in addition to the casting,
and rolling operations formerly carried
out. 7.'? different kinds of ma- J
chines, apparatus or technical articles,
are being produced. The Krupps cast
steel works have been extended from
a pre-war area of 242 acres to 1,'100
acres, and tho construction of railway
material has reached enormous dimensions.
German manufacturers are securing
considerable orders in Argentina
for fencing wire, rods, bars, billets,
railway rolling stock axles, wheels
and are offering prices with which no
[other country can compete. A Gerj
man firm recently obtained an order :
for 4,300 tons of steel rails at prices
far below American iiuotaticns and. '
in addition the German makers are 1
extending six months to one year ]
credit to the buyers. Krupps recent- ;
ly obtained an order from Argentina 1
for 10.000 steel wheels at a price of 1
less than .">0 gold pesos a wheel. Four- <

CONGRESS TO LEGISLATE
FOR EX-SERVICE MEN
Wa hington, May 22.?Stirred to
acti n by the insistent newspaper
campaign for soldier relief, congress
i expected this week to legislate for
the benefit of former service men.
The first important legislation to j
t>c expected is tne Hospitalization pre j
gram. Brigadier General Charles K. >
Sawyer, the president's personal phy- i
sician, has given this plan his particular
attention.
The hospitalization legislation Is
contained in the Langley bill, which
already has been approved by the
house committee 011 public buildings
and grounds. Representative Langlev
stated today that he expected this
l>ill to be taken under unanimous consent
early this week.
111 substance, the Langley bill authorize
the president to transfer t >
the jurisdiction of the treasury de-j
partment, hospitals that the army!
and navy can use for the former service
men. In addition there is a pro- i
vision for transfer of permanently
lisabled soldiers to hospitals in natonal
sokiiers homes.
A fund of $18,Or,0,000 is carried for
hospitalization, which is in addition
.0 the $40,000,000 available last year.

out by congressional leaders pro

viding for appropriations aggregating:
$15,000,000 for new hospitals,
which is to be pushed through at the
present session.
Another important measure upor
which eaily action is expected is the
sweet bill. This measure has the
endorsement of President Harding
and administration leaders, as well
Kmi^h on Rats.

in our house that you can hardly
waik around the kitchen."
Bill: "Why don't you buy some
rat biscuit ?"

near here and encounter negroes digging
live fish from the ground as if,
they were potatoes, and even persons
accustomed to the miracles of this
age would look twice and then set
out in search of an occulist. A certain
variety of mud fish found in
nearly all parts of the State is re- j
sponsible for this.
This queer member of the finny
tribe inhabits streams or ponds
which have mud banks or bottoms,
is black and weighs up to five or
six pounds. When the water in a
pond evaporates, as it does during
certain seasons of the year, leaving
only a mass of mud, which does not
worry the fish. They merely burrow
into the mud to wait for rain
and apparently continue to live as

long as the earth is wet. The negroes
locate them by exploring the
mud with their bare feet.
The fish is edible but is not a favorite
because of its stringy and
coarse flesh.
