Washington, D. C., Dec. s.—The high cost of living and what steps the fed eral government can take to control it, assumed proportions as a national question which overshadowed all oth er issues with the convening of con gress today. The possibility that President Wil son will deal with the subject in a. special address grew strongerl a,- though it was thought probable that he would select a separate occasion for it, rather than to add it as a supplement to his general address tomorrow. Eleven bills and resolutions, seek ing to check the soaring prices of food by stopping shipments to Europe, re ducing parcel post rates on food stuffs or controlling cold storage, were today introduced in the house. President Gompers and a committee of the American Federation of Labor called on President Wilson and asked him to appoint a special commission to investigate the food question. The president assured them that the gov ernment would take some steps to meet the situation. He is understood to prefer not to appoint a commission as it pratically would be without au thority to compel testimony; while it is realized that a. congressional in vestigation probably would mean a protracted delay. Reports gathered by the department of agriculture are being laid before the president and upon them he is ex pected to base any action which un doubtedly will be prefaced by a special address to congress. 50,000 BELGIAN MEN PLACED IN SLAVERY Paris, Dec. s.—“ Fifty Thousand Bel gian working men have been reduced to slavery by the Germans,” declares an appeal to American workingmen sreparcd by Belgian laborers at a se cret meeting in Belgium and commu nicated through a reliable channel to the Associated Press. The statement continues: “The Germans have reduced 50,000 workers to idleness through the seiz ire of raw material and machines. They have plundered Belgium of 1,000, 000,000 francs in money on the pre rext of a war contribution and of 5,- 700,000,000 francs in provisions thru the medium of requisitions. “Then under the pretext of idleness, which they themselves have provak ad, and of need which arose entirely “rom their raids upon Belgian resour ces, they declare that Belgians must sither sign voluntarily an agreement ‘0 serve Germany or be deported.” 3URNED SELF TO DEATH WITH | FIVE GALLONS OF GASOL!NE Atlanta, Dee. s—Of all the suicides committed in Atlanta, probably the ‘nost horrible and shocking on record was that yesterday of a man whose yame is thought to have been Louis jtagen, and whose bedy was burned o a cinder by flames from his cloth ng s:aturated with gasoline. Purchasing a five-gallon can of the inflamable liguid, the man went into an alley on West Peachtree street near the center of the city, drenched himself from head to foot, replaced ‘he stopper in the can, then walked 1o the street and deliberately struck a match and ignited his clothing. In a mass of flames he ran headlong’ ‘nto the street, dashed blindly into the rear end of a moving trolley car, and fell on the track in a writhing tor-i ture. Before aid could reach him the man was burned to a cinsider, beyond recognition. Both his identity and his motive for the strange and horrible deed are en veloped in mystery. , B iR e R BIG VERDICT IS AFFIRMED. Washington, D. C., Dec. 5.—A dam age verdict of $145,000 against the Pennsylvania Railroad company, se cured by the Sonman Shaft Coal com pany, of Cambria county, Pa., of which vance C.
