Davis told the comen’s conference on na- tional defense in sesslon here today that the United States was deter- mined to eliminate the slacker and the profiteer in case there ever is another war, Urging a bill now pending in con- gress based on the principle of uni- versal infustrial as well as man- power service, he declared that it contained the very essence' of democracy. “By controlling labor and capital,” he said, “we effectively eliminate the slacker. By preparing contract forms to take the profit out of war, by regulating the procurements of supply departments and other gov- ernmental Bureaus to avoid compe- tition in the market and by ration- ing supplies of power, labor, fuel and trangportation, we eliminate the prefiteer.” Mr, Davis said the needs of the nation in time of war have been de- termired and that “we are survey- ing industry so that we may know for each plant just what kind of war work it is best prepared to do.” The speaker avowed that if America's needs had been known before the world war, $240,000,000 on leather goods alone, Studies he said were being made of the important com- moditles which would be required in event of war.

One policeman lost his vest and coat and another nearly lost his irousers last night, when two na- tives of Prince Edward Island, Law- rence and Walter McKierney, broth- crs, rampaged around the Far East restaurant on North Main street. Prior to the entry of Policemen James Keith and Joseph Ryan to the scene, the two men had a nice party in the restaurant in which they succeeded in breaking furniture and in dislocating the arm of reorge Leewey, young son of Wil- liam Leewey, the proprietor. When news of the battle arrived at 7 o'clock at the police station, Desk Officer Joseph Strup dispatch- ed Officers Keith and Ryan, who were compelled to fight their way back to the station house as both men put up a stiff argument in the rear of the restaurant, where they were found and until they were landed at the headquarters. Even then, both were Napoleons of com- bat for that is where the disrobing of the limbs of the law began. With- out warning one of the belligerents tore Officer Keith's coat and vest off and when Supernumerary Officer Thomas McCarthy assisted his fel- low officers in starting the belliger- ents to a cell, a strong hold on his nice new trousers almost demolished them. The cloth was strong and thereby McCarthy escaped the em- barassment by a thread. So uproarious were the McKier- ney brothers that the details of booking them had to be foregone until this morning. In the battle both men were used up pretty well and signs of combat were easily ap- parent at the convening of court. The cases were continuel until to- morrow so that further evidence may be secured in regard to the violations of the Volstead act, In- volving the men. According to the stories told this morning at the police court hearing, the trouble started, when the two men attempted to assault John Stecher, a roomer at the Leewey home which is located near the Ifar East restaurant and when young Leewey remonstrated he was injur- ed. The call to the police inflamed the fires of battle raging in the Mec- Kierney breasts and Officers Keith and Ryan stepped into a cyclone of fists when they arrived. Driver Fined. Alvah 8.
