Gambling la Charge. '
Mr. Tewett. after declaring that the
term speculation, at appiico to ine
marketing fit Rrain, meant nomine;
but "gambling." launched a violent
denunciation of grain gambling.
"U'e find the oamhlinir oncrationt
us carried on in the Chicago Board
f Trade to be to extcntive at to
over-ride the notorious gambling at
Monte Carlo." he declared. "The
ability to deal in that which one
docs not possess provides opportun
ity for those whose interests are
liiamcterically opposed to those who
have wheat to market, so to carry on
their operations thnt they have, to
a high degree, the ability to establish
and manipulate price."
Actual operation of the laws of
supply and demand are nullified or
magnified by speculative gambling,
Mr. Jcwett said. "To whatever ex
tent speculation succeeded, the man
producing the grain and the man
consuming the grain are at the mercy
of the whim or caprice of the manipulators.
Not Price Stabilizer.
"First, doe speculation stabilize
price?" he asked. "Certainly not.
We have already shown that specu
lation is an extraneous influence,
affecting the law of supply and de
mand, which is the only just de
terminator of the price of any com
modity. Just so far as speculation
influences the law of supply and de
mand it is an evil influence working
ag.itnst natural law. ,
"The second argument is tnai n
provides -a continuous market 1 tie
market for wheat is compared with
that of prunes, which may lie dor-
ii ani nan ui inc vi-w. -
just comparison, drain, wheat and
corn, , 'form the .basic commodity of
the entire world. The demand for
them' is continuous, and production,
taking the world at large, is con
tinuous. The supply has never
equalled the demand. True, there
have been carry-overs of , wheat in
some years and in those years people
have starved. Why the carry-overs?
Greatly because of the blockade be
tween producer and consumer set up
by speculative gambling.
"Then the statement that "hedging'
provides insurance against loss and
that 'hedging' could not exist with
out speculation. But 'hedging' is in
reality an operation to protect the
large dealer against speculation and
it has never been proven that hedg
ing is successful insurance even
against speculation. Instead, it is
probable that more failures in the
gram trade and mill industries can be
attributed to 'hedging' than to any
other reason. In Illinois less than 56
per cent of the grain trade establish
ment 'hedge' and in the Pacific
Northwest 'hedging' is scarcely ever
resorted to."
, Pickell Springs Surprise.
Mr. Pickell spruncr a surprise by
basing his debate wholly on the de
cision of the United States supreme
court in the Chicago Board of Trade
against Christie case. He quoted
the court's decision that the value
of speculation "is well known as a
means of avoiding or mitigating
catastrophes, equalizing prices and
providing for periods of want'
People will endeavor, Mr. Pickell
read from the decision, "to forecast
the1 future and to make agreements
according to their prophecy. Specu
lation of this kind by competent men
is the self adjustment of society to
the problem."
Mr. Pickell pointed out that wheat
is iih demand by millers; exporters
and speculators and declared that
sofae millers were opposed to specur
latjon "because the speculator is the
competitor of the miller."
"If' it were true that speculators
selling always depressed prices, can
yoh imagine that the millers would
object to it on that account?" he
asked, adding that the miller as well
as khc exporter always sought wheat
at the lowest price possible. . From
the ' standpoint of private gain, he
said, the larger exporters would be
glid to see the doors of the specula
tive exchanges "barred and bolted,"
and that there would be "plenty of
millers to furnish hammers and
spikes."
Hedging tor Insurance.
Under present conditions, he con
tinued, the exporter obtains the hedg
ing or insurance protection of the
speculative market and thus avoids
speculation and operates at a profit
of J per cent of the value of the prop
erty handled, as shown by Depart
ment of Agriculture reports. The
miller, likewise, hedges his trades to
obtain the protection against price
fluctuations, he said.
Assuming that the American farm-
en raised vw.uuu.uw ousneis ot
wheat this crop year and today held
it "all on the farm, he would still be
unable to fix the price, the speaker
said, for this is not the only wheat
producing country. To hold the
grain vemdi be gravest speculation,
he continued, "Yon can never elim
inate speculation, because it begins
when the seed is submitted to the
soil." ' -
After the miller and exporter have
obtainedVtheir supplies, there are
'still mifpons of bushels vef surplus
heat which -must be carried aud

He reasoned it this way:

may safely be said that all good
citizens approved of the purposes and
efforts made by that conference,
which only a few weeks ago con
cluded its labors.
"All good citizens of this and

prices. , !
"The miller purchases his milling
supplies based upon a known flour
demand. The exporter fills all his
export sales, abroad. But in addi
tion to what the miller owns and in
addition to what the exporter bought
and then sold abroad, there is a sur
plus, amounting to millions of bush

L. Dunn has succeeded A. M. Har

member of the American Federation
of Accredited Commercial- Schools.
It lives up to its motto, "Excellence
Brings Success." Its thousands of
graduates hold positions in nearly
every state in the union.
The success of the school, its pres
ident says, is due to its courses of
study, methods of presentation,
corps of teachers and general progres
siveness and efficiency. -
Mr. Hargis, in a letter to the new
president, says: "You will, of course,
know that I will always want to see
the old school prosper and be suc
cessful, and you may rest assured
that I will gladly co-operate in every
possible way to the end that these
desirable results may crown the ef

true of all the powers that united
upon this fixed ratio.
"No lover of peace, no one who
does not realize to the full the
terrors ofVar, and that another such
as the last would practically destroy
civilization, could or would com
plain of the adjustment that was
made, but he is blind, indeed, who
does not or will not see that the
maintenance of that, ratio, at least,
i3 absolutely essential to national
preservation. The nation that, be
fore this ratio was fixed, was power
ful at sea in battleships or in mer
chant vessels, if she lags behind,
must inevitably find . herself in a
position where in case war does
come, she is powerless to keep back
the aggressor and the oppressor.
What I mean when I say that with
the ratio as established and the
scrapping of the naval vessels of the
several powers. Great Britain still
controls the sea, with Japan and the
United States occupying relatively
the same positions as they did before
the disarmament conference, is that
the number of seagoing vessels of
2.000 gross tons and over, of 12
knots or over, owned by the United
States is only 22 per cent of the
number owned by Great Britain,
while the number of vessels owned
by the United States, of the same
tonnage of less than 12 knots, is
practically the same as those owned
by Great Britain. But it must be
remembered that speed and ton
nage of the merchantmen combined,
is an essential element in the matter
of the national defense as well as of
commercial development.
Must .Maintain Routes.
"It behooves America therefore, to
see to it, not for military purposes,
but for the protection and de
velopment of her commercial as well
as for her national defense, to main
tain her routes at sea by the up
building ot her merchant marine
and keep up, at least relatively,
with other maritime nations, the
ratio that has been established by
the disarmament conference. This
can only be done through a mer
chant marine the equal of that of
other maritime nations.
"It follows that the man who be
comes a party to any propaganda
for the abandonment of an Amer
ican merchant marine in fdvor of
any maritime foreign power, or who
is willing to say that if foreign ships
can carry American commercial ton
rage at a less rate than American
ships can do the same thing, or that
American ships should be abandoned
and the foreign ships encouraged, is
disloyal to his country and its best
interests.
"Therefore, if for no other reason
than for pride in country, the
preservation and protection of the
vast heritage that has been left to
us by the fathers or the republic,
every loyal American ought to in
sist upon the maintenance of an
American merchant marine, at least
upon the basis of the present ratio,
and it would not be in violation of
the agreement reached nor an attempt
to display a preparation for war if,
by friendly rivalry with the maritime
nations of the earth, we still continue
to build and operate merchant ships
in an effort, not to control or domi
nate the sea, but at least to do our
fair proportion of the business of
the world.
"It is discouraging, indeed, to
those who are attempting to build up
and maintain our merchant marine
when they are confronted by the sug
gestion of many of our business men
that there is no sense in attempting
to maintain a fleet of American mer
chant ships when some foreign power
operating ships under foreign flags is
willing to take cargoes cheaper than
American ships can afford to handle
them.
Immense cargoes of cereals were
shipped from the United States to
the United Kingdom and, other for
eign countries during the past year
and foreign flag ships were under
bidding both the shipping board ves
sels and those of independent Ameri
can operators with the result that the
greater portion of these cargoes was
carried by foreign ships.
"The reason for this differential
is to be found in the higher cost of
ship construction in American yards;
the higher cast of operation of Amer
ican ships due to the maintenance of
a higher standard of wages, aid given
by government to foreign ships, and
many other items that I will not at
tempt now to discuss. The American
ship must therefore be operated at a
great loss or it must go out of busi
ness, unless this ditterentiai is met
fby subvention, direct, or indirect,
permitted by congressional action.

A week ago, Mrs. Dorn wrote
Reynold's parents at Imperial, Neb.,
asking that he be permitted to visit
her in Omaha to aid her while his

a nervous breakdown.
Reynolds came, spent two nights at
her home, and disappeared. Last

After severe questioning in the office
of the chief of detectives, they are
said to have told this storjr:

To the home on Cedar street they
went, pried open the aunt's trunk and
took the $640 and gold watch, which
they pawned.
Then, with carefree hearts and

Democrat Iniita on Parage

Ncwupiper for Alleged
"Lying' HqorU.
Lincoln, March 4, (Special.)
Representative Fred UorlmeiMer,
democrat, insisted today upon pas
sage ot a resolution by the state
and county road prolx committee
censuring the World-Herald fr al
leged "lying reports made of the Investigation.
One statement in particular, pur
porting to be a report of proceedings,
called for condemnation. It read:
Roland Frowe, county clerk, Sher
man county, presented records from
his office showing that roads were
built by the township and county
for $67 to SoOO a mile of a clay foun
dation, equal to the federal project
in that countv built at a cost of over
$4,000 a mile."
Representative Epperson said he
believed such a record had been pr
sented. The record was produced,
showing where figures were pre
sented giving alleged costs of coun
ty road with no reference to federal
costs. Records also were produced
showing that when Frowe appeared
before the committee he stated that
a comparison of road qualities and
accurate estimate of costs could not
be made unless the committee in
spected the roads, and the committee
announced that Sherman county
would be visited.
Resolution Carries.
After the committee had presented
Epperson the records he called for
he voted against the resolution. The
remainder of the committee joined
Hoffmeister in voting to adopt the
resolution, which also describes as
misleading, unfair and deceptive
headlines and reports of testimony
presented to the committee, "damag
ing to the good name of Nebraska
and hundreds of miles of good roads
built by the state."
H. K. Bishop of Washington, D.
C, chief of the division of construc
tion of public works, read figures
showing that state highways in Ne
braska had been built more cheaply
than in other states and government
inspections showed state roads were
as good as in any state and better
than m many.
Representative Fred Hoffmeister
asked George Johnson, state engi
neer, whether he had reported to the
attorney general the loss of the field
note book on Douglas county proj
ect No. 20, by T. W. Hamilton, one
of Johnson's engineers.
Tour of Counties.
"I did," Johnson replied, and
wanted to know if Hamilton could

The committee adjourned at noon
today because no more complaints
regarding road and bridge building
were before it for investigation. , It
will meet again in Lincoln April 14
for two days to hear further com
plaints. The committee then start on a tour
of counties to inquire into the cos
of county roads. A resolution was
passed asking the clerks of 43 coun
ties who paid no attention to the
committee's request some time ago
for figures on county road costs, to
