PARADE Overall Movement in Nation's Metropolis Has Already Resulted in Price Lowering Associated Press) NEW ORK, April 22. Ten thousand persons, at least, will parade here on Saturday in overalls, according to estimates today by the Cheese club, which is fostering the drive against high prices of clothing. 'It will be an "all overall" jia-rade, from the police who will head the procession, to the bands and marchers. No advertisements of firms selling overalls will be permitted to be carried in the procession. The original plan to hold the parade on lower Fifth avenue was abandoned as it interfered with a recent city ordinance prohibititing processions on thickly congested highways, unless on special occasions.

Mayor Hylan suggested Broadway as a line of march and this was accepted by the club. The mayor said he would like to head the procession but would be out of the city Saturday. The price-cutting movement by department stores, which started in Brooklyn, spread to Manhattan today with the announcement by A. W.

England's new Irish policy may be something broader than the existing home rule scheme and not unlike dominion home rule, says the Daily Sketch. Sir Hamar Greenwood, recently named chief secretary for Ireland, and Gen. Sir Cecil F. N. Mac-Ready, the newly appointed military commander there, are said to favor moderation, and are making attempts to determine just what the Sinn Fein wants.

A favorable atmosphere is being created, and the government, the newspaper says, "will go farther to reach a settlement than is generally believed." Newspaper reports have recently speculated on the nature of the policy initiated by the government, and it seems the first steps iu carrying out present plans will be taken as soon as Siri Hamar is reelected a member of parliament for "We urge upon you in your capacity of resident commissioner to the United States, to tell the congress and the peo SPOKANE, April 22.

PALMER CARRIES GEOOGIA, WITH TOM WATSON SECONO Attorney General Gets Plurality of 10 Votes Ferguson of Texas for President CBr Associated Press 1. ATLANTA, April 22. Complete unofficial returns from all counties in Georgia available here early today gave Attorney-General Palmer 1-tO yotes in the state democratic convention, a 10-vote plurality over Thomas E. Watson, his nearest opponent, who had 130 votes.

U. S. Senator Hoke Smith, the other candidate in the three-cornered race in Tuesdays' democratic presidential primary, had 114 votes on these figures. There are 386 rotes in the convention. The available returns showed Palmer carried 51 counties, Watson 55, many of them with fewer contention votes than the Palmer counties, and Senator Smith 48 counties out of the 155 in the state.

The unofficial figures were based on returns that were complete in almost every county, but it was pointed out that owing to the closeness of the race in some counties the official tabulation might swing them in another column. Backers of Palmer quoted Secretary Hiram Gardner of the democrtic state executive committee, which arranged the primary, as stating that the committee had ruled that whatever candidates won the highest convention votes would get the state's delegation to the San Francisco convention. One county, Wilkinson, with two convention votes, did not hold a primary, and under the rules as announced here, its votes would go to the candidate having a plurality of votes in the other counties.

Scarcity of Flour Is Serious in Spain (B Associated Press MADRID, April 22 The scarcity of flour is creating an acute situation not merely in Madrid but throughout Spain. The bakers of Madrid today gave notice that it was impossible to continue baking profitably owing to the high prices' demanded for wheat flour.

The government thereupon decided to requisition all flour mills, work thera and distribute the flour among the bakers in order to see whether the millers have been making undue profits. Simultaneously with the shortage In flour, the working bakers have given notice that they will strike within five days in sympathy with the biscuit bakers and confectioners who have been out for several days demanding higher wages.

The shooting began, according to Sheriff John K.

O'Rourke, while he and a force of deputies were trying to disperse a crowd at the gates of the stockade about the mine. The first shot, he said, was fired from a window of a nearby boarding house and narrowly missed a deputy sheriff. Immediately afterward, he added, "shots were fired in all directions." Both police officers and the deputy sheriffs said they fired no shots. Immediately after the shooting an extra edition of a newspaper calling upon all workers in the country to "lay down their tools and stop the wheels of industry." as a protest against the shooting of pickets appeared. Speakers at a mass meeting last night were quoted as urgiug their hearers to "arm yourselves in self-defense." A large number of special deputies were sworn in during the night by the sheriff.

PRESIDENT AND TREATY CONDEMNEDBY CUMMINS Iowa Senator Says People Have Earned Emancipation; Entitled to Republican President 1lty Associated Pre DES MOINES, April 22. President Wilson and the peace treaty were condemned and the railway law commended by Senator Cummins, president pro-tempore of the senate, in an address here today to the Iowa republican convention.

Predicting republican success next November. Senator Cummins said a republican president should be chosen "because it is high time that the president should be a right-minded man." "For surely," he added, "eight years of mystery, of uncertainty, of inconsistency, of abnormality, of inconceivable twisting and turning in the office of the chiel executive are punishment enough for all the sins and blunders we may have committed, and we have earned our emancipation." Senator Cummins declared the republicans were responsible for the law returning the railroads to private ownership, which he characterized as "a great forward step in progressive and constructive legislation" containing "a code for protection of railroad workers." Reiterating advocacy of anti-strike legislation, Mr. Cumruins said the labor board is "a tribunal which will render to railroad wage workers a surer and higher justice than they can ever hope to secure through a strike." With such a tribunal, he said, the public in its need for uninterrupted transportation, was entitued to declare unlawful conspiracies of railroad workers "to coerce employers by inflicting upon an innocent public the infinite cruelties which spring from general cessation of Treaty Be Campaign Issue. The treaty of Versailles will be a campaign issue, said Mr. Cummins, who asserted that it contained "unconstitutional and treasonable provisions." "The treaty failed of ratification." he continued, "for just one reason.

Wood-row Wilson, iu his revengeful pride, in his resentment against the senate because it dared to exercise its constitutional functions, coerced enough democratic senators who wanted to vote for ratification into the course which he commanded, and they followed him instead of their own consciences." The greatest problem now facing America, Mr. Cummins said, is "to readjust the disordered relation which has inevitably appeared between wages and compensation for personal service and the price of commodities." Increased production, he added, was the remedy. Ex-Premier Caillaux Will Know Fate Soon Above the dam. Clamoring to the top of the stone pillar, he spent the day and night there, while would-be rescuers made heroic efforts to rescue him. Kfforts to get a cable across the stream have failed, while attempts to get to the man with a boat from above or below the dam have been out-of the question.

The only hope of rescue, it is believed, is to wait for the flood waters to recede sufficiently to allow persons to walk along the crest of the dam and take him off the pier. Propose to Invite German Chancellor to Conference to Discuss Economic Relations (Br Associated Press PARIS. April 22 The San Renio correspondent of the Matin has been informed that the propositions of Premiers Nitti and Lloyd-George on the question of dealing with Germany culminated in a suggestion that Germany be invited to take part in the conference here. The premiers indicated, he declares, that in their view, the presence of the German chancellor in person would be desirable as a means of making the discussion of the future and economic relations between Germany and her former enemies productive of the best results. However, adds the correspondent, the representations of Premier Millerand have ultimately convinced the Italian and British premiers that they had taken the wrong view and it was decided that discussion of the German problem should be confined to the members of the supreme council.
