The men are representatives of. all the

whether to call 'a sympathetic strike, In
volving 800,000 union workers. In order to
aid the striking carmen to win their de

pathetic, strike would be called. The warn-
Ing'of Mayor Mitcnei ana inairman airaua,
of the Public Service Commission, that the
State' Guard would be called out has not
deterred the union leaders In the least. It
was stated authoritatively, however, that
the conference this afternoon Is considering,
besides the sympathetic strike, these two
alternatives: '
First. The calling out of th.s unions
directly connected with the transporta

Second. The enforcing of an edict -prohibiting
union members riding, upon
any lines atTected by' the Btrlke. Em
ployers would be notified that unless
they themselves provided means of
transportation their unlgn employes
would find It Impossible to get to work.

TEMPLAR CONCLAVE
COMMITTEE CONSULTS
WITH HOTEL KEEPERS
Choice of Philadelphia as Meet
ing Place in 1919 Dependent
on Satisfactory Accommo
dations and Terms
GRAND MASTER THE ARBIT
Moat Eminent Sir Lee Smith. '.of, Pilt;
burgh, Grand Master'ot the GrandEneamp
ment of, tho Knlg)its,TcmplarrbfOT. colnc
into the triennial conclave' committee, la
session at the Bellevue-Stratfdrd this morn
ing, said that while Philadelphia, had been
tentatively selected as the scene of the 1919
conclave It did not mean that the conclave
would be held here. The decision, he said,
was up to the conclave committee and
Anally to the decision of the Grand Master
of the Grand Encampment.
The committee, he said, was meeting to
day with the committees appointed by the
hotels of Philadelphia which will submit
a list of available accommodations and the
terms, and If these are ample and satis
factory Philadelphia will bo selected.
'The conclave," said Mr. Smith, "would
bring more than J1.000,Q0O. to Philadelphia
during the conclave week. The knights are
all good spenders, are used to the best of
everything and can pay for it."
100,000 KN'IOIITS TO ATTEND
As to the number which will attend the
conclave Mr. Smith had, no hesitation in
saying that it w6ulil be over one hundred
thousand, Including members and visitors.
'TJiere are," he said, "25,000 members In
the State of Pennsylvania and 25.000 In the
State of New York; In fact. In this little
eastern corner. Including the New England
'states, there are more than one hundred
thousand knights alone."
' Asked if he expected any visitors from
abroad, 'Mr. Smith said a great deal would
depend on the conditions of the war In Eu-
"Outside Great Britain," he continued,
"there are few members of the order in
any of the European countries.' And .the
number In Great Britain Is limited,. with
a-long 'waiting Hat. Membership In the
Knights Templar in Oreat Britain Is con
fined t largely to; the nobility, Conditions
over 'twere .are not as they are' here," said
Mr. Smith, "where we look upon a mechanlo
as bolngas noble as the best of us.
"Besides, the British Knights Templar
is not a uniformed order, and the same In
ducements are nqt held out as In the
United States."
Mr) Smith said he expected a large rep.
resentatlon from Canada, , where the order
Is as nourishing as In the United' States.
At .the' conclave held In Loa Angeles last
year Mr, Smith said there was only one
representative present from Great Brltatri,
and he came from Ireland.
Mr. Smith said the principal reason, why
the flrul decision as to the place where the
'triennial conclave would be 'held was In
vented In the triennial conclave committee,,
subject to the approval of the Grand Master
of the Grand Encampment, was that they
would be at the mercy of hotel managers
and proprietors -who oould say, "they are
pernlng .here anyway," and could then-make
.whatever pHm th wished. I) Is. the
ua!MM of th committee to guard against
that.

.There will be no rise tn the .price of the
flvo-cent loaf of bread In the pear future, fn
the opinion pf large and small bakers and
of officials of bikers' associations.
They say the few bakers who now charge
six cents a, loaf are dealers In an exclusive
trade, which does not represent ona-tenth
of ono per cent of the total bread business
of tho city.
P. L. Schllehenmayer, of the Philadel
phia Master Bakers' Association, says ha
does not know of any bakers who contem
plate a change from the five-cent price.
B, F. Whltecar, of tho National Bakers'
Association, which Includes virtually all of
the large producers, says that a national
movement must "edueato the public" before
a-new price can be set
The ten-cent, loaf, giving "honest value."
would be tho IdcAl form, tho bakers say, but
they add that the opposition of the average
housewife Is a big problem. They also say
competition of the chain stores Is a seri
ous obstruction to the ten-cent loaf.
NO NEED TO "WORnT
"The fact that several bnkers are re
ported to have raised prices need not frighten
the city," said one baker this morning.
"Two or .three ordinary bakers do not pro
duce one-tenth of one per cent of the bread
eaten In Philadelphia, and It some bakers
who'cater to a select trade do raise prices
the average consumer will not be affected."
Mr. Schllehenmayer said that the average
small . baker who sells to- the American '
consumer cannot raise the price independ
ently of the larger producers, The big
bakers and the chain stores, he thinks make
almost 7S per cent pf the bread consumed

The women would rise In protest all over

lished." Mr. Whltecar said' all the bakers would
be glad to make a ten-cent loaf, putting
;hto It a "Just weight of material." At
present virtually all bakers are Idalng
money, he said, and he gave figures show
ing that the average baker throughout the
United States who produces 10,000 loaves
a day Is sustaining a loss of 9000 a year.
HECOMMENDS WHEAT EMBARGO
An embargo on the shipment of wheat
to England and other belligerent countries
Is the chief remedy that William Frelhofer,
president of one of the large baking com
panies of Philadelphia, advocates for the
pretention of the high price of bread, While
he declares .that to the beat of his know),
edge no Increase In the price of bread Is
contemplated by the largest baking com
panics, lie admits" that the size of loaves
.has been reduced In many cases about 1H
ounces In .the last six months. Tho brea.d
his firm sells averages thirteen ounces per
loaf, he said this morning,
"It Is a deplorable condition," said Mr.
Frelhofer; "that many small bakers must
go out of business and that .100,000,000
Americans must be taxed Just to accom
modate waning countries In Europe, when
a simple embargo by our Government
would keep our wheat at home.
Mahlon'H. Mancll & Co., of Flfty-ueeond
and Market streets, has advanced the price
on flve-cent loaves to six cents, and Joha
L, lleerman, proprietor of four West Phila
delphia stores, announced that beginning
Monday his loaves will be five cents straight
instead of six for a quarter.
