Indignation voiced in many quarter in this coun try at tlie announced intention of the Moscow authoritiet to export grain when the country it Jutt re covering from th mot terrililc fain ine in in hiiiory it unwarranted, ofti cia't here airrt. Far from operating to the detri ment of th Kuttian people, thit rotirie of action, expert here be lieve, it dictated by atern ncretsity. The misunderstanding on thia lub jfft arose, they point out, from th fart that the aovict delegate! at The Hague, either intentionally or unin tentionally, gave the impression that grain wai to be exported from Rut ma this year became there wai turpltit above the needi of the Kut ian population. Since it wat well known here that no audi atirplua could poisibly exiit, some Americana jumped to the con clusion that Lenin and Trotaky in tended to disregard th needi of the peasant population and truit to the charity of the American relief ad ministration and other organization! to bring the peasant population through another winter of atarvation. No Surplui Grain. Inquiry developed that thia a Mimption wai entirely unwarranted, official! her say. The truth of the matter i that no nirplui of grain rxisti in Rursia today nor will it exist after the present harvest ii passed. In th southern part of Kui sia there apparently ii a good crop of grain, especially in the Ukraine imd the Caucasus, once known as the "granary of Europe." In the northern and northwestern dittricts, however, there is not enough grain, as has always been the case even in nre-revolutionary dayi.

It is due state, officials say, to inaugura tion of the budget system of govern ment under the administrative code which forced all expending agencies to outline nuarterlv expenditures in advance and empowered the govern or to force these agencies to live within their appropriations. flie Bros report shows tnat 248,531.41 of the total expenditures are derived from cash funds raised through licenses, fees, land rentals and other sources independent of trxation. The cash fund represents 28 per cent of the total expenditures. The remaining .! per cent, ot 289,060.96, was raised through taxa tion,. This 58.Z89.UoU.yo derived Dy tax ation is divided by Bross under three captions: operating expense, fixed charges, public improvements.

Senate Passes Administration Tariff Measure Final Vole on Bill 48 to 25 Action Edns Four Months Deliate Now Goes to Conference. Washington. Aug. 19. (By A. P.) The administration tariff bill, offi cially "the tariff act of 1922." wai passed late today by the icnate after four monthi of debate. It now goei to conference. The vote wai 48 to 25. Senator Borah of Idaho wai the only republican to vote against the measure. Three democrats Brous sard, Kendrick and Ransde.Il voted for it. . ... , Waslrngton, Aug. 19. Although it worked until close to mid night last nikht, the senate was back on the job half an hour earlier than usual today in order to clean up amendments of individual sena tors. At the getaway last night it was agreed that debate should be limited to five minutes to each sena tor on each amendment and that the administration features, including the so-called flexible tariff provisions, should first be considered. Aside from these features, most of the. highly controverted individual amendments were disposed of during the more than 12 hours that the sen ate labored yesterday. By substantial majorities, the 2.3 cents a pound rate on sugar and the 33 cents a pound on the clean content of raw wool were approved. Both matters led to long and sharp debates and senators visi bly were tiring before the end of the session. Borah Attacks Bill. Washington, Aug. 19. Attacking the provisions of the tariff bill pro posing broad authority for the presi dent to increase or decrease duties, Senator Borah, republican, Idaho, de clared today in the senate that he could not give his support to the measure on the final vote unless these provisions were eliminated. He said he could not arrive at the conclusion that they were constitutional. Senator Jones, republican, Wash ington, taid his views on the tariff were that the people of the country were getting more and more weary of the proposition of congress undertak ing to fix taritT rates. "It is impossible," he said, "for a committee of congress or congress to acquaint itself with every business in the country, and yet that is what it would have to do if it acts wisely in fixing rates." The presidential powers provisions fmall were reapproved, 45 to 26, after the section relating to coal tar, dyes and synthetic chemicals and ex plores had been so amended that any decrease of rates decided upon by the president would become oper ative within 15 days after the ittumg of a proclamation, instead of 60 days, as originally planned.

Originally it had an appropriation of $40,358 for this two-year period; by thrift and good management the secretary laved 10 per cent on hii estimated expendi tures, which enabled the special ses sion to reduce the appropriation to $34,688.

Tin reserve demanded by law is $34,992,600. Building of the iiiimeii.se reserve has required constant pressure from the state banking department and as a result Hart believes Nebraska banks are ready to cope with emer gencies letter at this time than at any previous period in years. Much credit is given by banking officials for the splendid reserve showing to the prompt appreciation of inid western conditions by the federal Kovrrnment and its advance of large sums through the War Finance cor poration to hard-pressed farmers. In addition to the unprecedented reserve, the Hart report points out a $6,358,962.22 increase in total re sources of state banks in the three month period.
