ONSUMERS IN WAR|] —Pemetimic (1B ON .. COALPRES Louis F. Post Heads League Formed to Prevent Prof- iteer Practices. “With a view to securing an im- mediate reduction in the price of coal,” a group of citizens last night formally organized the Coal Consum- ers' League, at a meeting in the of- fices of the American Assoclation of Engineers, 1317 New York avenue. Louls F. Post, assistant secretary of labor during the Wilson administra- tion, was elected president. Mrs. W. E. Chamberlin, president of the Woman's City Club, was elec- ted first vice president; W. J. Seelye of the Rhode Island Avenue Citizens' Association, was electéd second vice president; Mrs. Cella R. Whitaker, 1620 Riggs place northwest, secre- tary, and Mrs. Emma Wold of the National Woman's Party, treasurer. Representatives were present from the Mid-City Citizens' Association, Park View Citizens' Association, Southwest Citizens' Association and the Brightwood, Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest and Columbia Helghts citi- zéns' associations. There were also representatives present from the Ki- wanis Club, the Cosmopolitan Club, the Central Labor Union and_the Federal Employes’ Union. The Federation of Citizens' Assoclations had two observ- ers present, who will report to the fed- eratlon, The assemblage adopted as the purpose of the league the following statement. Fight on Profiteering. “The Coal Consumers’ League has decided to adopt as its immediate ob- ject every -possible means to prevent profiteering in coal in the District and to ascertain in what way the existing machinery for the distribution of coal can be made more efficient, with a view to securing an Immediate reduc- tion in the retail price. “The league's ultimate purpose is to compel, if necessary, a complete reorganization of the wholesale and retail distribution of coal in the Dis- trict, eliminating all forms of waste in the service, and making impossible after this reorganization the taxation of the consumer by profiteering prices or by prices unduly high because of inefficiency in the service for which they pay.” A resolution adopted during an executlve session requests retail coal dealers to submit a certified itemized statement of costs, to be drawn up along the lines of the cost-reporting schedules of the Federal Trade Com- mission, with grades of coal stated. This resolution, following a heated discussion during an open session, bad been formally tabled. Margin on Prodaction. Mr. Post, in a brief address in which he touched upon the increase in_ the cost of coal, stated that “the Coal Com- mission estimate showed that the pro- ducing companies received a margin over production costs of 36 cents a ton in 1913 and $1.07 in the first quarter of 1923—an increase of 300 per cent. Five producing companies are reported to have had a surplus of $7.000,000 in 1911, which rose to $52,000,000 in 1920. it was reduced to $25,000,000 in 1921, chiefly by distribution in dividends. “The rigid uniformity of retail prices s quite significant,” Mr. Post contin- ued. “It is altogether likely that retailing is standardized throughout the city by higher-ups. There may be a coal com- bine in the District which makes com- petitive distribution impossible, and of which well intentioned retailers are as much the victims as we impotent con- sumers are. On that point, the rigid uniformity of retail prices is quite sig- nificant. “If this probability is reasonable, as it seems to me to be, a movement among the residents of the District to subject to local coal monopoly to regulation as a business affected by a public interest cannot be under- taken too soon nor promoted with too much vigor. When the prices of market goods are arbitrarily fixed by some controlling dictator, when they pass out of the region of free composition and into the region of profiteering dictation, the business in which that change occurs ceases to be a busipess of private concern merely, It becomes a business of public “concern. In those circum- stances the business is affected with a public interest and must in all fair- ness be subjected to public authority. “The subject is now before you for your consideration and action.” The officers will hold an executive meeting at 1620 Riggs place next Tuesday evening at § o'clock. PLANS SUFFRAGE FIGHT. National Press Committee for Vote in D. C. to Push Issue. A speclal meeting of the national press committee for District of Co- lumbia suffrage has been called by Col. Winfleld Jones, chairman, to be held in 415 Southern building Mon- day afternoon at 4 o'clock. The pur- pose of the meeting is to formulate plans of action for pushing the move- ment for suffrage in Washington be- fore the incoming Congress and the reintroduction of bills for the neces- sary legislation to give to the people of the District of Columbia the right of suffrage. The legislative commit- tee of the organization, that will look after the legislation, will, it is sald, be enlarged and reorganized. POLICEMEN REWARDED. Base Ball Team Which Played Fire- men Last Year Honored. Members of the police departmént who participated in the base ball game with a team of the fire depart- ment last year yesterday afternoon as- sembled in the office of Maj. Sullivan, superintendent of police, and were presented with watch fobs presented by A. G, Spalding & Bro. Lieut. M. L. Ready, who managed the team, was presented with a hand- some gold medal, gift of members of the team. Maj. Sullivan and Odell S. Smith made the presentation speeches. Those who received fobs were: Mark Glasscock, C. Kelly, Charles Stewart, Donald McFeeney, Ernest Hiser, Ed- gar Prestle, Donald Redden, Thomas Fitzgerald, John Boyd, John Leach, Henry Dalgish, Robert Kaufman, Leo Kl:\l;ny, Edgar Taylor and John Weth- erall. NABBED AS TIRE THIEF. Police Sergeant Arrests Man Tam- pering With Auto. Noise made by an attempt to take a tire from an automobile at Californla and 18th streets about 3 o'clock yester- day morning attracted the attention of Sergt. Gustave Lauten of the tenth nrecinct and resulted in the arrest of Ralph Hammond Geldart, eighteen years old, 2408 Pennsylvania avenue, seated in & nearby automoblle. Geldart, in whose car the sergeant found four tires, is alleged to be an accomplice of a man who ran from the scene. The sergeant drew his revolver to cause the occupant of the car to submit quietly to_arrest, It developed that the automobile had ‘been taken from a repair shop at 412 E street northeast, and the tires in the car, it is cl had been stolen from automoblles. 0 additional tires were Geldart was charged with grand lar- oceny of the automobile and tires, and the police are looking for his companion. Last year I stopped at Pumpkin- ville, while touring in the west; the people there showed kindly skill in caring for a guest. I found the Husbandmen’s Hotel a pleasant place to stay; the room was clean, they fed me well, the bill was quite O. K. The citizens were glad to greet the comer to their town; they hoped its praises he'd repeat, and spread its fair renown. And ever since I've told my friends that it’s a_decent place; my praise of Pump- kinville ascends, as up the road I race. And people come to me and say, “Your counsel filled the bill; we landed, on a summer day, in good old Pumpkinville. They are a cor- dial bunch of guys, who do that grad infest; they fed us on the choicest pies, and all things were the best. And now we tell our friends the tale we lately heard from you; they’'ll seek that village in the vale, and find the story true. Oh, Pumpkin- ville has many charms that should inspire a pome; she welcomes guests with open arms, and makes them fcel at home.” Such advertising is the best that any town can gain; to skin the tourist and the guest is neither safe nor sane. (Copyright.) WALT MASON. HOPE T0 COMPLETE ESTIMATES MONDAY Commissioners Want to Transmit Figure to Budget Bureau by August 1. The District Commissioners hope to complete their preliminary esti- mates Monday or Tuesday, and then turn over the mass of figures to the clerical force to get them in shape for transmission to the bureau of the budget before August 1. Although the city officials took up their blue pencils again today and | went through the items once more to eliminate any unnecessary requests that may have survived the first cutting, it is reliably stated that the preliminary budget to be sent to Gen. Lord will aggregate, close to $32,- {000,000, Within a few days after the pre- liminary report reaches the budget bureau the Commissioners will be notified by Gen. Lord whether a further reduction will have to be made. It is known that in bringing the total down to about $32,000,000 the Commissioners already have lopped several millions from the total amount asked for by department heads. The city heads are endeavoring to be as liberal as possible in passing on the requests of the highway, sewer and water departments, which have failed for several years to keep pace with the demand for improve- ments in the rapidly developing new sections of the city K. OF C. BAND TO PLAY. ‘Will Give Concert at Holy Com- forter Church. A special concert will be given by the Knights of Columbus Band to- night at Holy Comforter Church, 15th and East Capitol streets, as the fea- ture of Knights of Columbus night at the church festival, Tonight will be the first appearance of the band in concert before the parish. Rev. Clarence E. Wheeler, rector of the church, is chaplain of Carroll Council, Knights of Columbus, and a large delegation from that councl is expected to be present. i RAIL RATE EXTENDED. I. C. C. Continues Special Priv- ilege to Orient Line. The Interstate Commerce Commis- sion has granted permission to rail- roads connecting with the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient to extend for six months after August 8 the special rate differentlals favoring use of that road in transportation. The Orient was originally given spe- clal latitude affecting rates as a means of increasing its earning power and keeping the line in operation. The ef- fect of the commission’s decision will continue the existing state of rate schedules. Other roads are allowed to make as much as $7.50 per car reduc- tions on freight shipments when con- signed over the Orient line. DROPS INJUNCTION SUIT. Mrs. Adele M. Ramsdell of New York has dropped the suit for in- Junction filed some weeks ago in the District Supreme Court against her brother, Remsen S. Voorhis, who re- sides at Lee House. Mrs. Ramsdell sought to prevent the disposition of a bond and certain jewelry said to belong to her mother's estate, of which she was executrix. Attorneys Wilton J. Lambert and Charles S. Baker, counsel for the plaintiff, ex- plajned that the matter was settled satisfactorily the next morning after the filing of the suit. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

Cider ‘and fruit juices with a “Kick” today came under a new prohibition ban. I The stuft may be made by squeez- ing out fruit juices, without violation of the prohibition law, under new regulations issued yesterday, but pro- vision must be made to “preserve” the cider and frult juices against termentation, or the law will be broken. This, in brief, tells the_ American people that they can’t drink cider containing more than one-half of 1 per cent alcohol without violating the Volstead act. No permit will be recessary to make unfermented fruit juices, but the maker under the new regulations is held responsible for the non-fermentation of the same. Under an old ruling the maker was not held responsible for what hap- pened after the clder was once “squeeze Must Use Preservative. The new regulations define “pre- derved sweet clder” as that in which alcoholic fermentation has been pre- vented by the addition “immediately upon pressing” of benzoate of soda in the proportion of mnot less than four to four and one-half ounces to each barrel of fifty gallons, or by immediate sterilization. The pres ence of 4 per cent of acetic acid will be considered as changing the cider to authentic vineg With regard to the home manufa ture of non-intoxicating cider and truit juices, the regulations : “Any person may manufactu MERCHANTS AGREE ON ANNUAL OUTING: Day at Chesapeake Beach, First in Six Years, to Be Repeated by C. of C. “It was a glorfous day at Chesa- peake Beach, and from now on we| will have it every year,” was the com- ment of members of the Washington Chamber of Commerce who vester- day attended the first summer outing of that organization since the be ginning of the world war, in 1917. From the time the first train left Chesapeake Junction the spirit joviality permeated the crowd, mained with them and was carr home by them. One of the big ¢ . of the day was a boxing match be- tween Isaac Gans, president of the Chamber of Commerce, and Oscar A. C. Ochmler. Mr. Gans claims he won, and is Chamber of Commerce presi- dent champion of the world. Ringside supporters of Oehmler d red that the fact that Gans' tie became disar- ranged was evidence enough that their champion won. Many Contest Winners. The master of ceremonies for the day w: F. A. Van Reuth, who staged the stunts and entertainment pro gram. Nathan Goodman won the b contest. E one thought Van Reuth was played out after six hour of energetic hiliarity, but he them their mistake, when his lu: lungs won the dime blowing conte Mrs. Minnie Goodman won the lad basket ball contest and C. H. Brown gave the crowd a thrill by winning the check writing contest. J. B nrode won the feather tennis con- test; Elta Darling carried off “kiddie car” race for women, while Nathan Goodman won a similar event for men. Later in the day a number of dis- tinguished gues arrived to take part in the frolic, among them being ommissioner Oyster, Commissione Bell, Maj. Dan Sullivan f)f (I}e» polic: department, Representative Stuart ¥ Reed of West Virginia, Repre tive Clay Stone Briggs of Texas a former Representative John H. Smith. Boxing Exhibitions. After supper the evening was given over to boxing exhibitions and dem- onstrations of jiu jitsu and a thrilling battle royal. Much fun was deriy from the old familiar “electric chair, which was _invifingly placed under any one who cared to register his name as a member of the party in a book kept at the Casino. Dignit: of position was not observed In thi use of the chair, from which many citizens prominent in District affairs rose quickly. p Under the invitation of Mr. Gans and E. D. Shaw, executive scout of the District of Columbia, a_six-mile motor_boat trip to Camp Roosevelt was provided for several membe of the party. The camp is t mer outing spot of the Washingto Boy Scouts. The visit showed 16! tanned faces and bodies go0d use of the beach and “the Er outdoors.” Harry Evans of the party was nearly the cause of a wrecked dining hall, when the youngste stamped and thumped their approval of his songs. The camp director, L. C. Drake, showed the party around. Tired, but still singing, the main part of the crowd left the Beach at 8 o'clock, and everybody agreed as Evans lusty voice boomed, for the tenth time, “Wonderful. g SUES FOR BOY’S INJURY. James Witt Asks $10,000 Damages From D. C. Merchant. James Witt, father of Daniel Witt, eight years old, yesterday filed suit in the District Supreme Court to re- cover $10,000 damages from Robert Bowdler, 2 mercimnt of Center Mar- ket.

Such manu- facture need not be done at the home of the producer but such person may take his apples or other fruits to a custom or commercial mill and have the juice ressed and removed to his home, but such removal must be accomplished immediately after the juice is expressed. % Dried Frults Banned. “If the non-intoxicating cider or fruit juice so manufactured is in- tended for beverage use it musf if intended for other than immediate consumption, be so preserved and put up as to prevent further alcoholic fermentation. The processes by which fruit and vegetables are ordi- narily prepared for winter use are amiliar to most housewives and it is expected that the same care will be exercised in sterilizing and bot- tling cider, grape Jjuice, ete., as is done in the case of the other pre- eration mentioned so that will not, when consumed srage purposes, be found to worked’ or fermented so as to become intoxi The use of frults, dande- lions, rhubarb, ete.” for the produc- tion of the “fruit juices” covered in the regulations is_specifically pro- hibited.
