The act provides || [mm bread shall be made in two sizes || | and be sold, respectively, at 2 lire (normally 40 cents) and 1 lira 20 centesimi (24 cents) per kilogram (2.2 pounds). The Italian consump- tion of wheat is approximately 70,- 000,000 quintals (1 quintal equals 220.46 pounds). Fifty million quin- tals are raised in the country, and of this amount 10.000.000 quintals a used for feed. The total importatie therefore, is about 30,000,000 quintal; paid for at the approximate rate of || 220 lire ($44) per quintal. The home- | grown wheat is requisitioned at 160 lire ($32) per quintal. Will Reduce Defieit. Assuming that the average price of bread will be 1 lira 60 centesimi (32 cents) a kilogram, tne annual deficit would be reduced to 60 lire (312) a | { quintal on imported wheat, or less | than 2,000,000,000 _lire auo.ooo.oon).]l ibut the law, according to its formu- || lators, who consider it a legislative || masterpiece, will serve in other wly-l‘ | to reduce this deficit. Prosperous workers will refuse to eat the larger loaves of bread and will buy || the expensive smaller types at 2 lire a kilogram. The value of the lire would rise and the price of foreign wheat would drop and accordingly a long step would be taken toward freedom of commerce and the abolition of the government organi- zation for requisitioning, which now costs for its maintenance 1,000,000,000 lire ($200.000,000). Heavy Tax on Wine. Finally, the government has been em- boldened to put a heavy tax on wine, all of the proceeds of which will make | | up for the 1088 on bread and thus create || a balance. The plan seemed 5o reason- able that the socialist obstructions failed and the budget was improved without giving the impression of being oppres- sive. Premier Giolitti's friends point out || that he is gradually restoring the Ttalian finances, is solving the post-war problems and is achloving real peace. STRIKERS WRECK HOMES. 1500 Men and Women Hurl Bricks at Cramp Workers. PHILADELPHIA, March 1.—Twelve homes of Cramps shipyard employes in the northeastern section of the city were partially wrecked late last night by (striking shipyard workers and their sympathizers. No one was in- jured. Two men and a woman were arrested and held on charges of in- citing to riot. More than 500 men, women and boys surged through the streets in the vi- cinity of the plant hurling bricks, milk bottles and other misslles jthrough the windows of houses be-|! {lieved to be occupled by Cramp em- || |pioyes. Police dispersed the crowd. || | A strike has been in effect at the | vard for about three months. BOON FOR SHORT LINES. Tests With Automobile Cars on || | H Tracks Declared Success. I Special Dispateh to The Star. WINCHESTER, Va. March 1.—Ex- periments conducted by the Winches- ter and Western railroad between here and Intermont, W. Va.. with a thirty- four-passenger car mounted on a five-ton truck chassis equipped with flanged tires, have proved so success- ful that additional cars will be built, it is stated by William B. Cornwell, president. Railroad officials who have tested the outfit predicted that it may eventually revolutionize passenger jtrafic on short line railroads all over the country. The car is heated by electricity, there is no smoke, cinders or dust, and passengers ride with as much comfort as 'n a standard coach. Attached to the car is a traller for mail, express and baggage. Comple- tion of the last half mile of road to Wardensville, Va., the western terminus, is assured at an early date, it was said JAPAN MAY QUIT IN MARCH. By the Associated Press. TOKIO.

C, TUESDAY, MARCH 1, 1921 We had this space all taken up with items—but we had to cut them out, and here’s why: Before we opened this department we got together enough merchandise to last a week of “capacity’ business. But when we opened our doors at nine-fifteen o’clock on Monday morning and took one look it wasn’t an hour before our buyers were on their way back to New York for more! . ‘Merchandise melted away like snow under the rays of astrongsun. As fast as we’d have some items + set up the buyers would send the “Sold-out” message to the advertising department. So, for a day or so we’re going to ask you to come here on general principles, on our promise that you’ll find plenty of bargains just as big as the first day. What they’ll be we don’t know; they are coming in and wjll continue to come in every day—and will appear on the Bargain 6th as fast as we can unpack them. Big doings on the Bargain 6th every day.
