Chicago, Aug. 1. With state troops
In full control In the blnck belt of Chi
cago, the rioting that terrorized that
section for four nights was pronounced
by stnte nnd city officials "at nn end"
today. The total dead since the fight
nt the Twentv -ninth street bathing

race riot, which resulted In the drown
ing of a negro lad, is thlrt) -two eight
een negroes and fourteen whites. The.
that the situation wns well in hand
total of the injured has not been offi
cially tabulated, but is known to be
more than TtOO and may exceed 500, ns
many slightly hurt went to their homes
without reporting to the police.
Adjutant General Dickson said today
nnd that, while the embers of race
hatred were doubtless still smoldering,
he feared no further outbreak. How
ever, field commanders of the 0000 state
troops in the riot zone were under
orders not to relax their vigilance and
to act promptly and decisively nt the
first Indication of a renewal of the
outbreaks. During the night several
calls were made for troops at points
within the zone, and in some instances
shots were fired, but quick responses to
the summons led to suppression of the
altercations.
Gradually the disposition of the sol
diers .throughout the area led to its
complete investment, the men being sta
tioned In Micant buildings, halls and
such other places ns were available for
housing of soldiers. The night de
veloped no serious disorders
Supplies were taken Into the riot
rca today. No fresh meat or vege
tables have been on sale there for five
days. In order that the babies might
not suffer, City Controller Hard
ing sent 2000 bottles of milk into the
district. With the incoming supplies,
and the presence of soldiers, the ne
groes began preparations to resume
their Jobs nt the stockyards and other
points outside tbo city,

tThe comment of the American press on the Federal Trade Commission's report on
the packing industry would tend to show that the people do not seem to be worrying over
the precise percentage of profits made by Mr. Armour and Mr. Swift and Mr. Wilson
and the rest, nor arc they so deeply concerned lest these gentlemen branch out too widely
into the grocery business. What they do ask is: are the packers profiteering; are they
keeping up the price of meat and other products they handle; are they one of the props
of the High Cost of Living? While the packers have 'their defenders among the news
papers, there is a widespread belief that the "Big Five" cannot be held guiltless of all
blame for the continuance of high food-prices, as- is shown in the leading article in
THE LITERARY DIGEST for August 2d.

Peace Can Only Come When
Everybody Goes to Work Again
and when "the healing processes of trade" have a chance
to make themselves felt. So we hear on every hand.
Here's a common-sense prediction of the future of America
and the rest of the world, and a discussion of "the great
olume of reconstruction business which Europe is ex
pected to send here."
A ustria Paying the Fiddler
She writhes and kicks against the terrible punish
ment but w ill submit. While the American dollar quoted
before the war at five crowns, is now wortli thirt-two,
"the future is not so black, even for Austria." A map
accompanjing this article shows proud Austria before the
war and the shred of territory that now remains.
Japan Rattles the Saber in Korea
Japanese journals are publishing articles in which
the failure of that country's authorities to administer
affairs in Korea is pointed out in harsh terms. Korea
through the Korean National Association appeals to the
world for freedom and makes charges against Japan that
are' startling, to say the least. Be sure to read this
"close-up" account, which includes translations direct from
the Japanese press.
A Race Riot
at President Wilson's. Door
strikes some observers as a touch of irony, inasmuch as
lie had just returned from looking, after the needs of
supprest nationalities and subject races in Europe. In
this article the opinions of various editors, including rep
resentatives of the colored race, are given as to the causes
and tendencies of the race riots in Washington.
Does Germany Consider the Treaty
A "Scrap of Paper"?
The Brussels Nation remarks cynically that the
Germans hae signed the Treaty, but they "will never
execute it" as they consider it "a peace of dupes." Read
this scries of translations from the German, Austrian and
Italian press, and ou will get an answer to a question
that affects the future safety of the world.
"Dry" America
As An Example to England
The Manchester Guardian sajs American piohibition
is the "biggest blow at the use of alcohol that has been
struck since Mohammed banned liquor among his follow
ers," but other English papers are not so sure. It may be
all right Jor Ameiica, but for England perish the
thought!
The Uproar Over Shantung
"The blackest page in all our history," cries Senator
Hiram Johnson, of California, "was written when our
name was signed to the Treaty delivering Shantung to
Japan." Many newspapers agree and run such head
lines as "Japan the Possessor of Stolen Goods," "Far
Eastern Alsace-Lorraine." Others defend the Shantung
Treaty. This article will give you the basic facts of the
dispute and the leading opinions on both sides.
