Explanation of Benefits

Emergency Tariff.
Beatrice, Neb., Sept. 18. (Special.)
Charles H. Randall, republican
nominee for governor, was given a
fine reception here today, when he
appealed at the Cage county fair In
company with Mrs. Randall, Attorney
CSentral Davis and Mrs. Davis. Sena
tor llandall spoke on the emergency
tariff and other national and state
issues
He told of what this emergency
protective measure ilid for the farm
ers after the signing of the armlstlce.V
It was a talk particularly to the
farmer and contained much of the
Information gathered by Mr. Randall
last January, when he went to Wash
ington at the invitation of the
Southern Tariff association. He
studied the proposition from all
angles.
Markets Were Flooded.
After the signing of the armistice,
ho said, the country was flooded with
foreign oils. And as a result, there
was no outlet for home markets.
Storehouses of the packers were
filled with lard. The packers pre
dicted that by February 1, pork would
drop to 5 cents a pound.
"The emergency tariff went Into
effect and shut out these foreign
oils," he said. "As a result, pork on
February 1 was 10 cents ii place of
S cents."
The sr.nie thing, lie said, uas true
of wheat. The first break came when
this country was flooded with the
Canadian product. The emergency
tariff stabilised the price.
"China hud been flooding tho
country with millions of tons of
frozen efTgs," be said. "These came
Iwtwecn February and May, when
home production was large. Another
example of stabilization through the
tariff."
South Aks Protection.
Senator llatidnll explained that the
Souihern Tariff association came Into
being a little over a year aw.
"Th southern rrower and stock
man were In distress," he said.
"And this was the first time
tit the history of the I'niled States
that southern jxople aked fur a pro
tective tariff. They are In need of
protection which only the tariff af
fords on the products of the soil. At
first the association consisted of but
a few southern atates. Forty-one
states are now represented."

for Rhine Yanks
Secretary of State Hughes
Works Out Plan Which Is
Accepted by Allied Repa
rations Commission
By GRAFTON WILCOX
Washington, Sept. 28. Secretary of
State Hughes has worked out a plan
whereby the United States will be re
imbursed for the cost of maintenance
of the American army of occupation
on the Rhine, it was learned on high
authority yesterday.
The reparations commission, after
consultation with the allied govern
ments, it was stated officially, has
agreed formally to permit the United
States to receive Its share of German
dyes without money payment, as has
been the practice heretofore.
The cost of these dyes will be cred
ited on the American bill against
Germany for tho army of occupation.
According to War department fig
ures, this bill, on April 30, amounted
to $254,097,297. and it is estimated
that the amount today Is somewhat
over $256,000,000." With the reduction
in atrength of the army of occupation.
the amount per month is considerably
reduced, but owing to the fact that
Anierioan soldiers are the highest paid
in the world, the monthly item la still
considerable. .

the close of this afternoon's meeting
of the cabinet It was stated that the
situation was regarded us Increas
ingly critical, A third meeting of
the cabinet will be held this evening.
The abdication of King Constantlne
of Greece, making again possible co
operation betwceln Prime Minister
Lloyd George and Kx Premier Ven
izelos may cause a lightning change
in Great Britain's policy toward the
Turks according to well informer
circles here today.
It Is anserted that a ponsible new
conjunction of these two former co
workers Is the explanation of the
studied attitude of pesMlinism which
since yesterday has been radiating
from No. 10 Uowlng afreet, where to
day much apprehension wss ex
pressed regarding possible warlike
acts of the Turks near Chunak.
Concentrate Aircraft.
London, Sept. 28. (By A. P.) An
important concentration of British
aircraft in the near east is underway.
An augmented squadron Is en route
from Kgypt for Constantinople, It in
cludes 16 first -class machlnes'and IS
reserve planes. '
Another squadron of about 40 ma
chines left Malta with tho fleet and
it Is reported three more squadrons
are ready for Immediate departure
if developments necessitate their ser
vices. British government circles today
took a grave view of the, situation in
the Darnadelles, which was regarded
as so critical as to ovemhuaow the
revolutionary di vclopmcnts In Greece.
The opinion was expressed that there
is a greater prospect of1 fighting be
tween the British and Turkish na
tionalists than at any previous time.
The cabinet was convened this
morning to consider a message from
Brig. Gen. Sir Charles Hurington,
commanding the allied forces in Con
stantinople, summar,zlng Mustapha
Kemal Pasha's reply to Gen. Harlng
ton's warning against violation of the
neutral zone along the straits. The
reply was considered to be evasive
and ambiguous.
Two Views Taken.
Two views may be taken of
Mustapha Kenial's intentions, it Is
staled. One is that under the cover
of his cavttlary he may be bringing
up artillery and material, and doing
oil he. can to compel tho Britlhh to
(Ire tho first shot. The less serious
view is that lie Is truthful In his state
ment that ho does not know whero
the neutral zone extends.
It is pointed out that Gen. Hurrlng
ton Is laboring under tremendous re
sponsibility. He wns told to do nil
possible to avoid war. but to use his
own judgment about fighting to main
tain the British edicts. He Is said to
have the full backing of the govern
ment, which will support any action
he takes.
In his reply Mustapha Kenml say
th Angora government doea not rec
ognize any neutral sone. He com
plain about the Greek warships
which hav been anchored near Con-
tantlnople and also about the action
of th British troop In tha region
around Chranak. Allegation are
made that th British have destroyed
Turkish rud and Turkish home.
Mustapha Kemal also cUlin th
ittbt to cross th nn ill.-d neutral
