Yesterday evening the MacDowellMusic Club met at the home of Rev.

A. Leffingwell, and enjoyed a verypleasing vocal program rendered byMrs. Duane Bird, who kindly took

the place of Mrs. A. M. Gillespie, whowas suffering from a severe cold.

Mrs. Bird sang “My Laddie,” byWm. Thayer, and Uncle Rome, bySidney Homer.

Mrs. Gillespie read a short, valu-

able and interesting article by the vo-cal teacher, William Shakespeare, on“Power, Sweetnriss and Expression ofthe Voice in Singing."

Mr. Leffingwell expecting to be out

j of town at the time of the next merit-ing, February 9th, it was decided to

’ meet at the residence of Mrs. Allen T.Bird, 317 Crawford Street.

The club is growing in membership,while interest in the work is increas-ing, and it bids fair to be a permanent

institution in Nogales. An interest-ing feature will be a study of Ameri-can composers at some six or sevenof the coming meetings.

the peace treaty yesterday, Democra- itic members of the conference issued

the following statement:

REGARDLESSOF FIGHT ONHIGH PRICESTHEIMtISE

(United Press Service)WASHINGTON, January 27.—Dur-

ing the five months of the govern-

ment’s campaign to reduce prices, itis alleged today, that middlemen have laccumulated vast profits- and thatdevelopments necessitate investiga-tion of two departments of the gov-ernment.

It ;s ind ; cated by market reports

compiled by the Agriculture Depart-ment that since the middle of Augustwhen Attorney General Palmer an-nounced that he was going after price ,gougers, prices paid fanners for the |principal crops grown have decreased !from 3.4 to 8.7 per cent each month,while according to Labor Department Istatements made public today, pricespaid by consumers have 1 increased cno jtinuously, until in December they jreached the highest points known inHistory.

These reports seem to indicate that 1middlemen have been buying cheaperthan before, but receiving the highest

prices known in history.

CABINET NOMINATIONSWASHINGTON, January 27. —Doc-

tor Hugh Cummings is nominatedhead of the United States Health Ser-vice, to succeed Doctor Rupert Blu !whose term has expired.

we could compromise differences, not

i only on Article X. but in all other res-ervations.

“We assumed that the other side tothis conference! had the same pur-

i pose.

“Unexpected interruption of- theconference, and a decision upon the

other side to refuse any compromiseon Article X., is all the/ more sur-prising, because it seemed from ex-pressions from both sides of the tablethat we were close! to a possible com-promise upon this very reservation.

;'

Several statements regarding Am-- erican participation in the war, ac--7 credited to Sims, were declared Byr-

s nes to be false, as shown by the re--3 cords in Sims’ own office. “Sims

i was so busy fighting the war over

r dining tables in London.” said Bymete,* “that he did not take time to look up

i actual facts in his office.”Said Byrnes: “Twelve d lys before

the armistice was signed, while! wewere in Pt o&, (Sims *here alws tern*

1 porarily), Sims told Representative

l Glass of Virginia, now Secretary of! the Treasury and Senator elect from

1 that state; Representative Whaley ofSouth Carolina, and myself, that the

1 armistice asked by the enemy would

have to be granted because of Persh-ing’s alleged failure to break throughthe German lines due to disasterous

' breakdown of transportation behindthe American lines. With pathos inhis voice Sims pictured this failureof our army at that most critical

moment. We fell for that story andrushrid to General Pershing, only to

1 find that a few days previous Persh-ing had written the Service of Supply

congratulating it upon the wonderfulwork performed, supplying the for-ces in the field. Sims statementwas false; and for his inexcusableslander upon American arms he

should be made to answer to the Am-erican doughboy.”

f WASHINGTON. January 27.—Dis-honorable discharge from the Navy

t Tor Rear Admiral Sims, because of his. recent testimony before the Senateo Naval Committee, was recommended

on the floor of the House today byrepresentative Byrnes, of South Caro-

,, line (Deocrat) in a spriech upon the. disclosures made before that commit-

t teri.

Byrnes declared that did his super-

. ior officer admonish Sims upon hiS! leaving for England before the United

States entered the war that he “wasnot to let the British pull the woolover his eyes,” by repeating that ut-

terance to the Senate committee the!

admiral was and is violating confiden-tial instructions, and deserves condemnation by every honorable, patriotic

American, with dishonorable dischargefrom the Navy.

The representative from Sonth1 Carolina charged that while serving

• abroad Sims slandered and villified! the American arrmy and navy, be-

littled Hie American force's to the1 glorification of the British and seized

every opportunity to scandalize hisfellow conutrymen. Byrnes declaredthat “Sims’ effort to flatter the Brit-ish by slandering the army and nav:of the United States will meet con-

tempt from every true Englishman,

as it does from evriry true American.’’
