Names Sent by Governor to Presi

Appeals Board
WASHINGTON, July 24. A. Mitchell
Palmer and Vance C. McCormlck. recom
mended by Governor Brumbaugh as mem
bers of the Exemption Appeal Doarda In
Pennsylvania, liavo not yet Indicated
whether they will accept the honor. This
has been announced by Seoretary of War
Baker.
Both these Democrats strenuously op
posed tho four Republicans serving on local
exemption boards on the ground that they
would be candidates for office In November.
They carried their protests to Secretary
Baker who has not yet acted on their cases.
In the meantime Governor Brumbaugh
sent the names of these leadlnjc Democrats
to the President for the appeal boards. It
la believed that Mr. McCormlck. will de
cline on the ground th,at he Is a member of
the Export'Commlsslon and that his duties
here will prevent him, acting In Pennsyl
vania as a member of the exemption board.

WASHINGTON, July 21. A certain
restlessness and n fooling of resentment tit
the failure of economical practices adopted
by them at tho Instance of Herbert C.
Hoover and other Government agencies to
bring down prices liavo been discovered by
tho Nntional Committee of Patriotic and
Defense Societies.
Georgo Wharton Pepper, nf Philadelphia,
Is chairman of the committee. An investi
gation of food conditions mado through
leaders of tho different societies represent
ed shown, tho committee buys, that tho
prlco of bread Is higher than it was be
fore the campaign begun by Mr. Hoover.
It adds that "seemingly neither the Gov
ernment, the public nor any ono else ex
cept tho Hour speculators, and in some In
stances tho bakers, havo profited by this
move.
"In tho early spring," says n statement
signed by Mr. Pepper. Kdward Harding',
William Matthew Lewis and General S. M.
II. Young, "our peoplo were urged to plant
all possible vacant lots with green vege
tables. This was done.
"Today almost every dooryard has its
garden. Yet tho prices of green groceries
In tho market wero never higher. It was
also noted Jthat certain sctd merchants
took marked advantage of their opportu
nities at planting timo to raise prices."
Tho committee refers to tho campaign
to liavo persons carry homo their own
bundles. It adds many aro wondering who
Is to bo tho beneficiary of such action, tho
merchant or the customer. It suggtsts that
merchants havo printed slips giving tho
prices of goods taken home by the customers
and tho price If delivered by the store.
"The results will come rapidly if In every
community," says the statement, '"the peo
ple will bring pressure to bear on tho
merchants to placo fair prices on all com
modities ; nor must the pressure ond with
the merchants tho producers of tho country
must como Into lino and work for tho
general good, otherwlso real conservation
will bo Impossible.
"Tho public must bo assured all through
theso economy campaigns that tho Govern
ment and tho public aro partners In the
benefits derived from the elimination of
wasto and luxuries. They must know that
profiteering has been abolished, they must
have assurances that their suspicions that
certain merchants aro 'cashing In' on tho
patriotic devotion of their customers Is un
founded. "Properly organized, public sentiment can
effect a great change In the present unsatis
factory conditions."
