Washington, D. C. Nov. 14. The
world's supply of wheat for this year
was described today by Secretary of
Agriculture Jardine in a statement
as likely to be not more than 5 per
cent greater than last season, but this
increased supply, he said, will d
"largely met by an increase in de
mand." In his picture of world wheat con
ditions, the secretary declared that
Canada had made a downward revis
ion of its crop estimate for this year;
Russia would have no wheat to export
and probably will have to buy the
grain before the end of the year
and as the European corn crop i
short the producers of that contin
ent "probably will consume and feed low county;
more wheat than usual.
Prices Have Effect.
"The low prices that have pre
vailed nearly all over the world,"
.Mr. Jardine said, "in the past twc
or three months are encouraging pro
ducers everywhere to feed wheat, and
this will reduce the supplies avail
able for world markets below what
ordinarily would be expected from
this crop."
The most recent Canadian' official
estimate of its wheat crop placed if
at about 501 million bushels, the sec
retary said, adding that this is 61
million bushels greater than last
year's official estimate, "but probab
ly only 15 to 35 million bushels more
than the amount produced."
Canada Estimate Lower.- I
"Inspections to date indicate that
this indicated increase will be more
than offset," he continued, "by
dockage and frost damage. The
downward revision of the official esti

Lanham, 21, accused of the murder
of his sweetheart, Catherine Carter
19, today signed a statement in the
presence of witnesses, admitting that
he was the one who killed the girl
in Mill park near Curtis on the night
of October. 17. He admitted that he
took the girl to the park with the
intention of ending her life. He alsc
stated there was no one else con
nected with the case and that he had
told no one of his plans
Lanham made his statement at hi?

Feared Responsibility.
"I make this statement of my own
free will and with no threats or pro
mises," the young man told the little
group.
Believing the girl was in delicate
condition, and that he was respon
sible, was given by Lanham as hif
motive.
"I could 6ee no other way out," ar
I was not in a position to marry her,"
he said.
He bought a gun to kill the girl:
and he drove to the park to do the
killing, the statement said. They
were in the park about 10 minuter
before he sent one bullet through her
head from the back, he said. .Three
more shots were sent into her body
Then Lanham stepped from the cai
and shot himself, he said. .. .
Asked why he shot himself twice

gratified from Central and South Am
erican countries expressing good will
toward the United States and his pro

Hundreds of cablegrams from La

relations between North and South
America.
Mr. Hoover makes it plain that
he is not making the tour as a sales
man for American industries. Thi?
is not to be an expedition primarily
to build trade, it was said.
Rather is it to be a peace and good j
will mission, with emphasis upon i
friendly relations, frequent confer

the nations.

VERDICT FOR JOHN BERGMANN
The jury in the U. S. court at Lin
coln which has been hearing the case
of the First National bank of this
city against John Bergmann, return-
eda verdict on Tuesday afternoon in
which they found for the defendant
Mr. Bergmann and against the plain
tiff bank and its receiver. The suit
was over $5,000 of bank stock which
was alleged to have been placed on
the bank books and under the name
of Mr. Bergmann. Mr. Bergmann had
denied the ownership of the stock and
that it was held by him merely as
collateral for a loan made, the stock
being given by George O. Dovey, form
er cashier, and that the defendant
Bergmann had no knowledge of the
fact that the ownership of the stock
had been transferred on the books
of the bank. The contention of Ml".
Bergmann as to the fact that he had
no knowledge of the stock other than
a3 collateral was borne out by the
evidence and the verdict of the jury
