NEBRASKA WILL
PRODUCE GREATER
YIELD OF WHEAT
Reports Received at Omaha Indicate
An Increase of 13.219.000 Bush
els Over the Past Year.
Omaha. Nebr., June 25. Nebraska
will produce 41. 49, 000 bushels of
winter wheat, an increase of 13,219,
000 bushel, or 47 per cent, over last
year's crop, according to an authori
tative estimate of June 1. received in
Omaha.
That Nebraska farmers and those
of other states having winter wheat
for sale this ear will receive a good
price for their grain is the firm con
viction of officials of the American
Railway association in analyzing the
estimated production for the entire
I'nited States. The June 1 estimate
shows a decrease of 53.021.000
bushels for the entire country. Ne
brasku. Kansas. Oklahoma, Texas
Mid Colorado estimates, however.
indicate an increase of 63,939,000
bushels for those states.
Adverse conditions during May
reduced the forcast from 269.293.000
bushels as of May 1. to 241.227.000
bushels June 1, in five states show
ing increases. In ten other wheat
growing states, in which the May 1
bushels less than the 1923 produc
tion, the June 1 estimate brought
a further reduction of 17,460.000
bushels.
" These figures indicate that the
roads serving the Middle Western
states are likely to experience con
siderably heavy requirements for
grain cars than last year depending,
of course, upon the extent of the
early movement." L. M. Betts. man
ager of the closed car section. Ameri
can Railway association comments
in analyzing the estimates. "Recent
reports of foreign crop conditions
point to the possihility of a better
extort demand a little later. This
prospect together with the reduced
production, is likely to result in
pric conditions that will move a
considerable volume of the new crop
as fast as harvested." he adds.
The railroads are favorably situat
ed to comply all transportation re
quired fo this movement. Mr. Betts
reports.
IOWA DELEGATES
TO STICK TO UNIT
RULE AND M'ABGO
Edwin Meredith Says It will Not be
Abrogated so Far as Loyalty
to McAdoo Concerned.
New York. June 25th. Talk of
abrogation of the unit rule in a meet
iag oi the Iowa delegation to the
i.. Hi-it ratic convention today led to
widespread reports that the delega
tion was about to quit William G.
McAdoo. Some members of the dele
gation said their understanding of
the agreement reached was that af
t r tasting the state's vote for Mc
Adoo on the first two ballots, no
i art her attempt would be made to
act as a unit.
Edwin T. Meredith, former secre
tary of agriculture and a member of
the delegation, declared there was
no such intention. He said the de-
ision o waive the unit rule applied
r, iy to any vote taken in a plat
form fight and tonight he issued this
formal statement through McAdoo
headquarters:
'('or.iusion has arisen with regard
to the unit rule in control of the
Iowa delegation. The situation is
this: The unit rule prevails with
regard to the nomination of our
andidate for the presidency and no
hange whatsoever has taken place
d( pite contrary reports which have
ban broadcast in the press of the
country. The unit rule has been
Waived only in voting on certain fea
tures of the platform. The Iowa del
egation is committed absolutely un
der its unit rule for the nomination
of William ;. McAdoo.
VETERANS NOT ALLOWED
TO VOTE ON KLAN PROPOSAL.
Salt Lake City, l.'tau. June 26.
Twice within a few minutes disabled
American veterans of the world war,
in national convention here today,
fought off two incomplete motions
that the delegates go on record as
opposing the ku klux klan. Edward
A. Byrne, of St. Louis, the first man
to offer such a motion, was cut off
in flash by National Commander
James A. McFarland and ruled out of
order. Commander McFarland was
sustained in his action by a rising
vote. "Our constitution states that
the disabled American veterans will
not take part in any political or re
ligious discussion," he said.

Many Prices for Gas
The gasoline question is one which
is a puzzler to those who do not
know the workings of the business

drawn from the storage tanks at
mat place and hauled to a r.oint in
Sarpy county and retailed at 13 a
numner oi days before the price was
reduced to 17 at Louisville Dnrinf

many prices on gas in Cass county
as there were towns.
The people keen worrvinc iiki wiiv-
such a condition should exist and are
much puzzled over it.

that there are a number of changes

an important feature of the law is:
that setting the age at which the

To date Taggart believes Ralston's

he has his way the leaders will

Ralston will be brought out. without,

Rumors constantly fly about the
hotel corridors that Taggart is only
using Ralston as a stalking horse !
and that he has another candidate 1

prodigal with his offers of bets on ,
Ralston. The mere mention of the

The democratic national conven

the outbursts of the delegates at the
mention of the names of the various
candidates for the nomination for
president and the greatest demon
stration of the clay greeted the nom
inatlng speech of Franklin D. Roose-
velt for Oovernor Alfred E. Smith,
New York.
The applause was continued for
over an hour and the demonstration
wus renewed this afternoon on the i
seconding of the Smith nomination
by Senator David t Walsh of Bos-
ton. The spirit of the convention
for the day was decidedly in favor
of the popular New York governor
and it was "Smith day." A coun -

Colorado seconded the name of Wil

The name of Governor Charles W.
