Keeps Departure Secret. “The War Department” his report explained, “certainly will not give no- tice of their sailing and probably will not permit the men to give notice upon the eve of departure. Presumably, they will be allowed to write home af- ter arrival.” The report to the Councll says “Life Insurance in force prior to a certain date covers war service without per- mit or additional premium. Ameri- i can Life Insurance Companies, during the month of April, gave notice as to new insurances that the insured must within 60 days after leaving the Unit- ed States for military service in ter- ritory foreign to the United States, notify the Company and pay such ex- tra premiums as the company may determine. It would seem that pru- dence would dictate that any man in the service and expecting to leave the United States would bettér pay the additional premium at once, but in the case of soldiers for whom the ad- ditional premium is paid by their em- ployer to so instruct the individuals concerned that they will notify the emplover of their transfer to foreign territory as soon as possible after reaching such foreign territory, in which case the premiums might read- ily be pald within the time limit.” MILK STATION NEEDS MONEY.

Central Body Desires fo Learn Attitude of Business Men Washington, Sept. 28.—A referen- dum to ascertain business opinion on price control is being sent forth by the | Chamber of Commerce of the United States which carries a committee rec- ommendation that the National Cham- ber favor additional legislation to cre- ate authority to control prices during the war. Business' arganizations throughout the United States will have an opportunity to vote for or against such a recommendation and 45 days will be given to them to dispose of the subject. The question is raised at a particu- larly interesting time in view of the number of important questians about prices which have recently developed. The referendum, it is said, will show exactly where the principal organiza- tions of the country stand on the sub- Ject. ‘What Committee Favors. After going very thoroughly into this subject the National Chamber price control committee has recom- mended that authority to control prices should extend to all articles which have importance in basic indus- tries as well.as in war, and which enter into the necessaries of every- day life; that authority to control prices should extend to the prices the public pays as well as those paid by the gavernment; that authority to control prices should be administered by a small executive board appointed by the president. Also that an agency working in har- mony with the board controlling prices should have authority to distribute available supplies to those purchasers whose needs are most directly related ta the public welfare; and that each leading industry and trade shoud cre- ate a representative committee to represent it in conference and to ad- vise with agencies that control prices and distribution. Chamber’s Attitude on War Profits, The National Chamber has already gone on record through a referendum vote of its members committing it ta the principle that there should not be a profit interest in the war. This principle has been reiterated several times by the members of the cham- ber since the United States declared a state of war. The committee points out that for success in business enterprise, stable prices are essential. Every seller of products is a purchaser of materials. No business can be satisfactorily con- ducted if it cannot ascertain its own costs and prices in advance. When there can be no reasonable certainty about the future course of costs for materials and equipment, it is pointed out by the committee in its report that every business faces unknown ele- ments as soon as it endeavors to de- termine its. scale of operation, the goods it will make, and the prices it should ask for its product. Position of Private Buyers. It is pointed out by the committee that control of prices charged to the government, whether exercised under authority of law or through voluntary arrangement with the sellers, leaves the situation of private buyers, who have to meet their requirements out of a diminished supply, worse than before the prices to the government were dealt with. This is the case, too, it is further pointed out, whether the position of industries buying for fur- ther manufacture is considered or the situation of ultimate purchasers among the public. Prices for Foods. With respect to foods, feeds and fuel, this inequity is recognized in leg- islation which has just been enacted. The so-called Food-Control Act con- templates a system of licensing maf- ufacturers and handlers of food prod- ucts and the other articles affected, with the profits of licenses limited by the government to a reasonable figure. Some commodities — such as wheat, flour, meal, beans and potatoes —the government may buy in quanti- ties and sell at reasonable prices, as a means of influencing the general market. In order that the president may make measures of this kind ef- fective, ‘he may, if necessary, take over and operate the facilities for pro- ducing such foods or meats, or the mines from which coal is obtained. Membership of Committee. The membership of the speclal com- mittee of the National Chamber mak- ing this report consists of: August H. Vogel, of Milwaukee, vice-president of Pfister and Vogel Leather Company, chairman: Norman Bridge, of Los An- geles, secretary of the Mexican Petro- Jeum Company; E. W.
