Government
Set on Farm
Relief Task
Determined to Bring »Aid to
Agriculture and Solve Prob
lems for All Time.
Many “Cures” Submitted
By MARK SULLIVAN.
Washington, Sept. 21.—All the cab
inet discussions and the many con
ferences President Coolidge is having
with individuals, recognize that the
farmer is the country's great prob
lem. The administration is giving
mors time to this than to any one
other question. Not only is Secretary
Wallace kept busy on a survey being
made at President Coolldge’s request,
but more than one other cabinet
member are giving their tim# to it.
Individuals and delegations have
been summoned from other parts of
the country to confer in Washington
on it, and members of the cabinet
are to be sent out to hold regional
conferences where the question is
most acute. All this is for the pur
pose of first getting the facts com
1 pletely and then recommending a
program.
The concrete program Is the Im
portant thing and the difficult thing.
Tour correspondent has talked with
several persons who are busy on it,
all of whom say something must be
done, and are confident that a way
or ways out will be found.
Wheat Grower Hit Hardest
But nothing for the Immediate fu
ture is yet in sight. The most acute
sufferer is the raiser of wheat. His
specific troubles are due to factors
pretty difficult for any agency of the
federal government to control.
Th# Canadian crop is about 450,
000,000 bushels. That is more than
half the United States crop. And
this Canadian crop is raised by a
population of less than 10,000,000,
less than 9 per cent of America's
population. Turning it around and
looking at it from the point of view
of consumption it is evident that an
overwhelming proportion of ■ this
Canadian crop is going to be sold In
the markets of the world at low
price In competition with the United
States crop. There Is some fear that
this Canadian competition may be
permanent.
It may be that the Canadian wheat
■dinner is now going to do to our Mis
sissippi valley wheat raiser what he
himself did a generation ago to the
wheat raisers if New England and the
east. It may be that the wheat
raising industry Is going to migrate
from the Mississippi valley over to
Canada.
Farming Cheaper in Canada
The conditions are more favorable
in Canada.. The Canadian farmer Is
much less heavily taxed than our

Robbers Loot Two
California Banks
Yrcka. Cal., Sept. 21.—The Bank
of Weed, Ca!., 25 miles from here,
was held up .shortly after noon to
day by a lone bandit, who seized
$20,01)0. in the excitement of mak
ing his escape, however, he is said
to have dropped all but $1,080,
Fresno, Cal., Sept. 21.—Two youth
ful, unmasked bandits entered the
First National hank of Tranquility,
west of here, knocked down the
cashier and escaped with approxi
mately $150 in currency. Two women
who entered the bank during the hold
up were forced into the vault as was
the injured cashier. The holdup men
escaped in an automobile.
A. N. Matliers Injured in
Jump From Beet Wagon
Gering, Neb., Rept. 21.—A. N.
Mathers, speaker of the Nebraska
house, suffered a bad injury recently.
"While constructing a pasture fence on
one of his farms, he was compelled
to leap from an overturning beet
•wagon. The teamster drove the
heavily loaded wagon down off an Ir
rigation embankment, when Mr.
Mathers, realizing thr wagon tnnot
turn over, jumped from the seat plat
form to the ground down the bank,
and cleared the wreckage excepting,
as he says, "his right foot could not
keep up,’ ’and was caught by a cor
ner of the overturning beet lack.
Mr. Mathers stayed with the fenc
lng Job the remainder of the after
noon, but the sprain and bruise were
very painful. An x ray will be
taken.
Large Trees Are Uprooted

Higher Tariff to Protect Wheat
Endorsed by ‘Big Sixth’ Congressman
Representative Robert G. Simmons of Scottsbluff
Declares Grain Growers Are Entitled to Any
Action That Will Assure Profits.
With three of the best-known
wheat counties of the state In his
district, Congressman Robert G. Sim
mons of the Big Sixth was much In
terested when he plunged today into
the Omaha movement to double the
tariff on Imports of wheat in order
to protect the farmers. “The Amer
ican farmer is entitled to equal pro
tection, the same as the other indus
tries of the country,” he said. “The
farmers have the right to try this
out if they wish.”
Kimball, Cheyenne and Buell coun
ties are regions of big wheat farm
ing. During the war Cheyenne coun
ty shipped more of this grain than
any other county in Nebraska. “Lots
of my constituents are raising wheat,
and it would be only fair to give them
a profit on their labor and capital
Invested," the congressman said.
“Senator Howell has endorsed the
prpoosal,” he continued. "If this
method will bring an increase in price
to the wheat grower, then by all
means it should be favored. I have
just seen newspaper comments re
garding the proposal to double the
tariff on the importation of wheat.
This is based on the assumption that
the American crop does not exceed
the demands for consumption in the
United States.
“I can see no place where it can
result in harm. It seems to present
a fair opportunity to try out the
executive's power to adjust tariff
rates: also to determine whether a
tariff on wheat will favorably affect
the price in the United States.
“The wheat farmer faces a condi
tion which, so far as this crop is
concerned, can ndt be adequately met
by new legislation. Neither can it bt
met by plans for diversified farming
nor by a limitation of production.”
The Omaha movement has spread
to the northwest, where the danger of
domestic competition from Canadian
grain is more, apparent. Farm lead
ers there are taking it up.
Messages have been sent to Secre
tary of Agriculture Wallace and to
Secretary of Commerce Hoover ask
ing ther approval for the plan, which
already has been submitted to Presi
dent Cotflldge.
One of these messages, addressed to
Mr. Hoover, follows:
“We out in this country are very
niueli interested in anything that
will better the condition of our
farmers. It lias been suggested to
the president, with the understand
ing that it is in his power, that it
would he a good tiling for the
wheat farmer, especially, if lie
would raise the duty on imported
wheat at tills time.
“A great many manufactured ar
ticles are protected to such an ex
tent that they can pay good living
wages to their employes and manu
facture their goods and sell them
at a reasonable profit, as against
imported articles of the same kind.
It would seem to me that the farm
er should also be protected as far as
possible.
“Papers are full of a big crop In
Canada. A great deal of Canadian
wheat Is moving into this country
and with claims being freely made
tliat there will he a great deal more
moved in and that this will unques
tionably even lower the price of
wheat from the present prices.
"The press is full of conference*
in Washington with a view of help
ing out the wheat farmer, and It
seems to me that action should be
taken where possible and tliat at
least tills much cap be done without
waiting for congress or too many
conferences. _
‘Senate Must Go,’
Says Author of
One-House Plan
Otto Mutz Claims 1,000 Names
on Petition—Makes Heat
ed Reply to Gover
nor’s Attack.
Lincoln, Sept. 21.—Formen State
Seuat ir Otto Mutz, father of the one
house Initiative petitions, reported to
day that he had obtained signotures of
1,000 In Lincoln and vicinity to his
petitions . D. M. Amsberry. former
secretary of state, has been chosen as
chairman of the one-house committee.
Mutz today made a heated reply to
the criticisms of Governor Bryan on
his plan. He said in part:
"Just when did Governor Bryan as
sume the role of a compromiser is not
disclosed in his pacific discussion of
the single house legislature, but if he
thinks the minds of the Nebraska
taxpayers can forget ao soon the poli
tical blckeringa of the men who
were elected on a promise to reduce
taxes and then spent an entire ses
sion standing guard over political
spoils, and the party that ahould get
them, he Is misjudging the temper of
Nebraska voters.
.“Everybody promised reform and
tax reduction before election, and the
promise was either forgotten, or the
contending forces were unable to real
ize on their promises while the politi
cal battle was going on. History must
record that every promise failed and
the people paid the bills.
“The serfote must be abolished. It
ha; represented special Interests of
tene: than It has represented the peo
ple. It has always contained men
who were above suspicion, but It lias
always been said: ‘Watch the senate.’
"The two-house system of legisla
tion Is a relic of England. They had
a house of lords and a house of com
mons. The business of the house of
lords was to protect the royalty from
the house of commons.
“This nation has no royalty. It
will never have. Whether It Is n
fact that the senate has looked after
interests of our rich men or not, It Is
charged, and to relieve the minds
of the people they must furnish evi
dence.”

Cabinet
By Calveml Berylce.
Washington. Sept. 21.—Col. Theo
dore Roosevelt of Oyster Bay, N. Y.,
soon will become secretary of the
navy, marking the first change In
the Harding cabinet under the ad
minlstratlo nof President Coolidge, If
present plans are carried out.
Edwin Denby of Michigan, at pres
ent secretary of the navy, has ex
pressed a desire to retire. Young
Roosevelt, now assistant secretary of
the navy, Is President Coolidge's own
choice as Denby’s successor.
To ascertain If the plan Is accept
able to the New York state repub
lican organization, with which Roose
velt is closely Identified, President
Coolidge today called Into conference
at the White House Senator James
\V. Wadsworth. Charles D. Hilles,
New York republican national com
mitteeman; George K. Morris, New
York republican state chairman, and
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt.
HiUes I.uncheon Guest.
The conference lasted for three
quarters of an hour. It was followed
at the luncheon by another confer
ence between the president and Na
tional Committeeman Hilles, who was
the president’s luncheon guest.
Todays’ conferences were preceded
by a visit to the Whit# House yes
terday of Senator Wadsworth and
William Barnes of A\bany, former
New York state republican ”bosa.”
Barnes returned to New York \ast
night. Hilles, Morris and Wadsworth
went back tonight.
The plan carries with tt ths ap
pointment of Secretary Denby to an
other post In keeping with the dignity
and position of one who has occupied
a cabinet portfolio. It is understood,
however, that the selection of this
new assignment has not been definite
ly determined.
Anxious to Retire.
Some rm.nfhs ego, before PresM-nt
Harding left Washington tai nla wiat
ern trip, It was reported that Secre
tary Denby was dealroua of giving
up hla cabinet place.
Denby la not a man of wealth. The
J12,000 a year aalary aa a cabinet
officer la hardly aufflclent to maln
tal na cabinet officer In the official
and aoclal position In wheh he must
move. That la said to be another
conalderatlo nln hla desire to retire.
It Is doubtful if any assistant to
a cabinet officer has had a more
active- part In the actual administra
tion of a department aa young Rooee
velt has had with the navy. During
the months that Secretary Denby
was on his trip to Japan last year,
and while he was absent from Wash
ington for th enaval maneuvers off
Panama thia year, Roosevelt was act
ing secretary. And when the secre
tary h^s been here, Roosevelt has
taken active leaderahlp In naval af
fairs, being very largely responsible
for the safe conduct of naval legisla
tion throuhg congress and In other
activities.

Bavarian Split
With Germany
Grows Imminent
Ludendorff Warns Against
Separation—Little Hope
in Belin Poincare Will
Bow to Baldwin.
Berlin, Sept. 21.—The last 24 hours
has brought no relief to ^he tension
In the German domestic political sit
uation. The coalition parties remain
firmly convinced that Immedists set
tlement of the Ruhr question is vital
ly necessary, but they make no at
tempt to dissemble the fear that the
Immediate result would be the sepa
ration of Bavaria from the German
republic.
It was learned tonight fro ma re
liable source that Minister of Defense
Gessier, who returned this morning
from Bavaria, brought back very
pessimistic reports of conditions
there.
On the other hand. General uden
dorff. in a Munich newspaper, says
there must tie no thought of s sepa
ration of Bavaria from Germany."
The two right parties—German na
tionals and nationalists (Deutsche
Volks Parte)— have organised a Joint
i xeeutiva committee which is in
permanent session and preparlhg to1
decide upon a course of action as
soon as the cabinet makes a final de-1
vision upon (he Ruhr settlement. This
committee has numerous connections
in Bavaria. The Gentian national
members of tha reichstag and the
Prussian diet have chosen a similar
Joint committee.
There Is reason to believe that the
sympathies of Pomerania Mecklen
burg and East Prussia incline strong
ly towards Bavaria's side.
The cabinet Is still awaiting an
answer from Paris tq the latest Ger
man memorandum. Optimists in the
German foreign suffice believe they
can read between the lines of the lat
est telegrams from Paris that Pre
mier Poincare will make some con
cessions to Prime Minister Baldwin
of Great Britain, so that a relatively
favorable turn of affairs may come
at the last moment. These optimists,
however, form a very small minority.
The eoinmuntsts n re steadily In
creasing their activity. Their plans
obviously contemplate Saxony and
Thuringia the places for the gather
ing of the combined red forces In the
event of Bavaria's defection from the
German federation.

Several Nebraska Towns
Seek Coal From State
Uncoil). Sept. 21.—Eastern people
are desirous of taking advantage of
hla coal selling plan. Governor Bryan
asserted today A letter from a man
at Brooklyn, N. Y.. offered to give
him Information as to where new
and untried coal fields in West Vir
ginia and Pennsylvania could be
opened whereby coal could he sup
plied to eastern communities witn
less freight rate.
A Uniontown. Pa., dealer wired, of
fering to sell ateam coal at J2 per
ton at the mine. A man from Maine
offered to purchase 10 carloads of
opal. Orders for 15 carloads were
sent to the mine today, tha governor
reported. They are to be distributed
as follows: 10 carloads to Omaha mu
nlclpul yards, 2 carloads to Grand
Island. 2 carloads to Stanton. 1 car
load to Hebroa.
The governor stated that inquiries
from nine more Nebraska towns
ask for detailed Information as to
how to place their orders.
The governor has contracts with
two mines, ona In Illlnota and one In
Colorado. If they become swamped
with orders, then other mines will
be called upon to fill orders. If be
cause of previous contracts they re
fuse. tha governor expects to blame
the "trusts." and will demand a con
greaalonal inquiry.

Oklahoma City. 8ept. 21.—The con
fusion and tumult of martial law in
Oklahoma began to recede here to
night before the steady march of
orderly developments In the "fight
to the finish” between Gov. J. C.
Walton, the lower house of the legis
lature, and the Ku Klux Klan.
Lines of attack were drawn up by
both sides tonight, esch ready to
strike. An executive ultimatum de
manding tha resignation of Thomas
Cavnar, sheriff; District Judge G. W.
Clark, and County Attorney J. K.
Wright was expected to be made by
the governor from his mansion to
night.
The resignation of the three county
officials will be demanded on the
ground that they are self-admitted
klansmen and theiiefore subject to
dominance by the Invisible empire in
their official acts.
The moderates, heretofore passive
before the storm that has surged
through the state, made a move to
force suspension of martial law and
graceful surrender of tha.Ku Klux
Klan. It was a two-edged sword,
struck equally at Governor Waltoij
and Grand Dragon Jewett.
The movement is for a special elec
tion to be called Dec-ruber IS, per
mlttlng the people to vote on a law
requiring the klan to unmask and
compelling tha registration of the
membership of ail secret fraternal
organizations. Masked assemblies
would be made a penitentiary- offense.
Petition for calling of the election
was filed of the moderates. The date
is set too far ahead to avert a
"showdown" between the governor
and the legislature, however, it was
said.
