The industrial world believes the basis of government will be wid ened to permit adequate representa tion of economic interests.

The industrialists calculate they will be able to produce between 1, 000,000,000 and 1.500.000,000 marks thus relieving the government of the necessity of purchasing foreign currency to the disadvantage of Ger man exchange.

TO' Germany refused to stage a politi cal upheaval because of the assas sination of Mathias Erzberger by an irresponsible youth. No doubt Ger many remembers that it was an event of just this sort that led to the World War. :o: "When you let your hair grow long it's a eure sign that you are ready for the insane asylum," says Glenn Voliva, overseer of Zion City. Yes, but the trouble with these long-haired folks who are allowed to run at large is that they are crazy and don't krow it. OPPOSITION TO THE TREATY DEVELOPING Some Republican Senators Opposed to German Pact on Ground that it Entangles U. S. Washington. Sept. 16. Opposi tion to the Harding treaty of peace with Germany was understood today to have developed in republican sen atorial ranks on the ground that the pact entangles the United States in European affairs almost as much as the league of nations covenant. How far this opposition will be; reflected in votes of republican sen ators is uncertain. Criticism of the pact is not confined to senators who were irreconcilables on the Ver sailles treaty, however. Senators have been studying the new treaty for several weeks. In sev eral instances they have consulted their colleagues about its provisions. A number are convinced that the treaty ties the United States into the Versailles treaty as surely as tho the senate had ratified that in strument. It is significant, however, that no republican senator, irreconcilable or moderate, is ready at this time to state his opposition publicly. Democratic oppostion is expected as a matter of course. BRYAN PLEADS FOR FARMERS. New Orleans, La.. Sept. 16. Be cause of the sudden fall in prices of farm products, and because other prices have not fallen in proportion, the condition of the farmer is worse today than it has been in thirty years, declared William Jennings Bryan in an address before the in terstate farm congress today. Mr. Bryan declared the farmers "must stand united against the present ef forts to shift the burden of taxation from the privileged few to the masses. The obvious purpose of the revenue bill now under discussion in congress is relatively to decrease the taxes of the rich and relatively in crease the taxes of the poor." "The revenue bill, as it passed the house, removed the tax from excess' profits; that is, profits that are ex cessive, and bestowed upon the profi-! teers a gift estimated at $450,000, OpO," said Mr. Bryan. largain Wednesday! Sure we have fine bargains in anything you want in our line, at the The Dusterhoff Shops, MURDOCK NEBRASKA PLAYING HOST As hos-t to the delegates to the Washington disarmament conference it will be up to the United Slates government to pay the expenses. It is inipe.-sible to estimate what the co.st will be, but it is certain to run into big figures. Each delegation will be accom panied by dozens of experts, secre taries, etc., totalling several hun dred. It would not be surprising if the conference lasted three months. According to one state department official, six months is not outside the possibilities. ' One of the big items cf expense will be the printing bill. The printing for one of the Pan American conferences cost over $ 100, 000, and that was just a tide-show compared with the conference that will start in Washington November 11. -:o: The government chargts that cof fin maker.-; have been guilty of pro fiteering. Well, anyway the f:lks who are in collins won't kick. All of them are w:Iliag to let well enough alone. UNDERGOES OPERATION Mrs. W. A.
