One Man Shot and Killed and Anothe, Seriously Wounded in Strike Rjot on the Southwest Side of Washington. Upon complaint of the Western association of Rolled Steel Consumers that the United States Steel corporation and other steel producers act in violation of the federal trade commission act and the Clayton antitrust act In selling rolled steel on a Pittsburg basas, the federal trade commission Saturday announced that it had undertaken a thorough investigation of the subject, with a view to determining whether a formal complaint should be issued. In its complaint the Western association urges that Chicago should be made another basing point in fixation of steel prices. The action, which is undertaken by the trade commission as a friendly suit, has been pronounced by E. H. Gary, chairman of the board of the United States Steel corporation, as "the biggest lawsuit ever tued in this country. The application for complaint made by the Western association, represented by John S. Miller of Chicago, as counsel, says the membership comprises over 700 fabricators of steel. These are operating in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Colo rado and California, all being tributary to what is known as the Chicago district jthat the United States Steel corporation mill at Gary produces steel at a cost substantially lower than at the Carnegie plant of the steel corporation at Pittsburg or at other corporation plants in Pennsylvania; that over of the rolled steel made in the United States is made by the respondent at Gary, Ind. "The applicant submits that the normal, reasonable price for rolled steel should be measured by. cost of production with addition of reasonable profit, and without addition of a large and arbitrary increase which forms no part of the production cost and is over and above such reasonable profit.

Reports of marriages between American soldiers and German girls have been received at headquarters from various parts of the occupied area during the past few days, but as yet re charges have been filed against any of the men. It is believed most of the marriages were due to misunderstandings regarding the antifraternization regulations. A week before the treaty was signed several of the chaplains, through a misunderstanding, Informed the soldiers that marriages were permissible as soon as the Germans accepted the peace terms. Officers say that a number of marriages took place before this belief was corrected by a special order from headquarters calling the attention of officers and men to the fact that until the United States ratified the treaty Germany and America technically were at war, and the regulation prohibiting fraternization was still in force.
