n THURSDAY, DICTT-CDIIL 23. 1933 P1ATTSM0UIH SEMI - WEEKLY JOUSNAL PAGE SIX Currency Fight Predicted when Congress Meets Senator Reed, Pennsylvania, Says That President Has Power to Forestall Debasement. Washington. Preuictlne a cur rency battle when congress meets Senator Reed, Pennsylvania, said there v.ere not enough votes to "stop the tendency toward further inflation cr to force the president to use the power given him in the last cession unless he himreli were to oppose it. If he were to take a stand against currency debasement I think we could nr.ii-ter enough votes to step it," Reed told reporters. ' He expressed the opinion the pres ident had made "four mistakes" in dealing with the monetary situation "First," he said, "he used his influ ence ia favor of the Thoma3 amend ment when I think he should have opposed it, and I think the country would be In much better condition if this amendment had been defeat ed. Second, he made a lot of us feel very badly when he repudiated the gold clause in government securities, or asked congress to do so. I think this was a dishonorable thing for the Government to do, and that It will do irreparable injury to the national credit. Third, he alopted this policy Professor Warren's policy of buy ing gold above the world market. That policy seems to have failed. Fourth, he adopted the policy of buy ing and coining newly mined silver. This looks like a concession to the silver bloc, and may b? intended to forestall demands for further infla tion.

Starting Friday This Cass County's so, but-if it should have that effect it will probably be worth all it costs." Reed said there had not been any real inflation yet in any sense. It Is not too late for the president to put down his foot and say no, we won't do it,' he said. "If he were to do that, there would be an outburst of confidence such as we have not seen in the United States since the depres sion settled down. Business has im proved here to some extent, but not so much as it has in Great Britain and some other parts of the world I think the whole world has been on the mend for ten months. Our bank ing troubles, first, and our currency troubles, second, have held us back. If we cSLfi get these straightened out so that our people can count on some thing definite it will enable us to keep step with the rest cf the world." Keed said he had found that Pres ident Roosevelt was "personally very popular, but that this popularity does not extend to some of his policies." Reed said he had found the "pro cezsing taxes of the AAA are resent ed by both the farmer and the con sumer in Pennsylvania."

The Rotary club at their meeting on Tuesday afternoon was disappoint ed in the fact that L. II. Puis, head of the department of public speakin at Creighton university, was unable to be with them for a talk along the line of his chosen work. Dr. H. G. McClusky was in charge of the program and afforded a fine substitution in a discussion of prob lems in business ethics and which was ably presented and enjoyed to the utmost by all of the club member ship. The club had the pleasure also of a short talk from James Robertson and Henry Kaffenberger, high school boys who have been members of Ro tary for the month of December. The regular songs were under the leadership of Searl S. Davis. The club had as a guest Robert Rea, son of F. I. Rea, former prexey, who is home for the holidays from the St. Benedict's coUoge at Atchison. Kansas.

Will for Peace Can End War, Declares Hull Co-0pcrative Spirit of Nations Fonnd in Parley at Montevideo Sums Up Work. New York. The message of Monte video to the world is that a will for peace can end war by national agree ment, Secretary of State Hull said. The leader of the North American delegation said he believed the Pan- American conference ended Tuesday with a record of "the greatest accom plishment since independence days" the development of a complete co operative spirit of unity providing a foundation for wholehearted and forward-moving action in the future." Hull spoke from lontevideo. "Just now," he said, "the thoughts of every person are riveted upon Bolivia and Paraguay. All who love humanity are hanging breathlessly upon every word that wings it3 way from the capitals of these two" nations. They are hoping and praying that the two fine peoples who have been so long in a death grapple will now be able to meet the supreme test of civilization by entering upon a lasting peace." Hull said that "if there were mo ments when the attitude of the United States was like one of granite" it was in the cause of peace. "We have been good neighbors." he said. "We have just shown we have been good neigh bors, and good neighbors we shall re main. Pan-American solidarity i3 no idle term in the light of events here." Hull summed up" the work of the conference as successful only because of the "magnificent co-operation here wehre we have been working togeth er without undue quibbling and have recognized the opportunity for vaster accomplishments ahead of us." IN SERIOUS CONDITION The friends of the Sam A. Moye family here will regret to learn that the son. Jack A. Mcye, is in very ser ious condition at the Robert W. Long hospital at Indianapolis, Indiana. The young man has been tick for a long time suffering from a peculiar blood disease that seemingly has baffled the attending physicians and the lad has undergone many blood transfusions but without any success in building up his strength. He was at the hos pital at Evansville, Indiana, the home of the family for many months and was finally taken to the Indianapolis hospital in hope of giving him relief. The young lad has borne his long ill ness 'cheerfully and would be pleased to hear from the sihool friends here. HOLD CANDLELIGHT SERVICE One of the impressive features of the Christmas services at the First Methodist church was the candlelight vesper service, held at the church on Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock. Te Christmas story was presented by an angel, this role being taken by Miss Bernice t Am," who gave the scripture story of the Nativity, while the story was pantomimed by the children of the Sunday school, carry ing to the audience the story. The choir of tha church gave the musical setting of the service that was filled with beauty and at the close of the service the candles were lit and added a touch of unusual im- pressiveness to the scene.

Certified Seed Grows in Favor in Nebraska Manv Hybrids Are Grown Wilt Re sistant Alfalfa Developed in Dawson. Nebraska farmers are certifying more and more seed each year, the summary of extension work in agron omy in the state for the year ending Dec. 1, indicates. P. II. Stewart, ex tension agronomist at the college of agriculture, says extension agrono mists gave assistance to the Nebras ka Croo Growers association in cer tifying 32,000 bushels of seed on farms of forty-five growers in twenty six counties. Stewart says nineteen corn variety and hybrit,demcnstratIo:is were car ried on in eighteen different coun ties during the current year. Once again they showed the wide differ ence in yielding ability Of different lots of corn. Important differences were noted also in the ability of corn to stand up well and resist drouth. As a result of these tests such va rieties cf corn at Krug, Eiermann, Wahlgren and Itoggenbach have yielded the highest and are being tried by farmers in comparison with their own corn. Hybrid corns have also been used In the tests this year. They have consistently outyielded cpen pollin ated vark'tie3, Stewart declares. This year they averaged 62.1 bushels per acre in the test against 54.1 bushels for all varieties. The five best hy brids averaged 67.3 bushels and the five bsst other varieties 57.3 bush els. Ia the six rears that hybrids have been used, they have averaged 67.3 bushels per acre again-t an a erage of 61.1 bushels for all other varieties. As a direct result of the demonstration work, thirty-two Ne braska farmers produced one or more acres of Nebraska 23 S hybrid in 1933. Thi3 is the first tine it has been produced on Nebraska farms altho a number cf farmers have been plant ing commercial hybrid seed. Hardistan alfalfa is another crop which is proving popular with farm ers. Extension and experiment sta tion workers discovered a few years ago that in Dawson county it main-j tained its stand and poductiveness ! while many other fields killed out rapidly due to alfalfa wilt. Station tests later demonstrated that this variety has extraordinary value as a wilt-iesistant alfalfa. It wa3 given the name of Hardistand. Now there are thirty-four Nebraska farmers growing approximateiy 255 acres of it. Considerable surplus seed is now available thru the certified seed list of the Nebraska Crop Growers asso ciation for other farmers who need a wilt resistant alfalfa. NO CLUE IN ABANDONED CAR State Sheriff Encre3 Monday night said hopes to connect an automobile abanodned between Battle Creek and Tilden with the $1,500 robbery cf the First National bank of Syracuse had faded, and interest again has turned to a hunt for Clarence Eno. The" automobile, which bore no license plates, was left at the roadside early Saturday morning. A trucker tcld Norfolk authorities of seeing the car on the highway, apparently stalled and with three men working with It. Three men robbed the Syracuse bank. The trucker said he got out to help the men, but they fled. At Nor folk he reported the incident to po lice, and deputy state sheriffs went to the spot and found the' car. There was nothing found in it or on it, E:i- dres said, to indicate ownership. Endres said he thought the ma chine "had too much mileage" to be the one used in the robbery. lie said soon after the holdup he was search ing- for Enn. and Sheriff Ryder of Otoe county said "about a dozen" witnesses of the robbery had identi fied a photograph of E:io as one or the gunmen.
