Light j or Hens and Trees.
DttH$ftg a Psalm.
| Where the Money Is.
[ By ARTHUR BRISBANE
v-✓
Chickens lay more eggs when
you light the coop at night, pro
longing the period of eating.
Everybody knows that. Now it is.
shown that prolonging the day by
electric light will make plants in
crease their growth.
To suggest that one day the
light of the sun, stored up in
electricity, will be used at night
to increase growth in orchards
and even in entire forests, flying
machines helping in the process,
would seem preposterous. But not
more preposterous than electric
light or flying would have seemed
a few years ago.
John Bovingdon, Harvard
, graduate of 1916, starts the
I “Artists church.” Only ladies
were present last Sunday. The
Rev. Bovingdon in knickerbock
ers, golf stockings, brown leather
shoes and white silk shirt, “danced
the 23d psalm.” It is necessary
to express our religious feelings
physically; that’s why he danced
the psalm.
Jusfe how you could dance “The
Lord if taf Shepherd, 1 shall, not
want,1*! said the rest of that psalm,
is not clear to the layman. But
then there are many things in
religion obscure to the layman.
David danced before the ark, why
not Bovingdon? Perhaps we take
religion too solemnly.

It seems we are getting poorer,
especially the richest among us.
Only one man in the United States
. this year pays tax on income of
: five million dollars. The govern
ment doesn’t tell who that one is.
Income tax reports are kept secret.
The tax that a man pays on a
small home is public property. .
Only 21 Americans reported in
comes of'one million dollars or
more.
In 1920 70 reported incomes of
a million. The solitarj income of
five millions represents 5 per cent
on one hundred million dollars.
Several Americans would laugh,
if you offered them a hundred mil
lion, for everything they own.
This doesn't mean illegal or crimi
nal evasion of income tax. The
laws are drawn so that they reach
small jpfn, doctors,, lawyers,
moderate-Bzed busness men. They
don’t reach the really great for
tunes. Everybody knows that sev*.
era! great fortunes, Henry Ford’s,
JoTfn D. Pockefelter’s, and two or
xthrse others, -.are worth many
times one hundred dollars.
,,But the money is in corporations.
;The owners of the corporations
■jjdo not draw the money out. They
’Reinvest it, a good ■ thing when it
is rejgpjp$jl.in'^W(i^i|lT^ enter
prises, not so good wnen invested
in bonds that pay no tax whatever.

Mr. Zangwill objects to the
Palestipe-Zionist movement, be
cause ther^ isn’t room in Palestine
for all Jews. He wants a home

'Mpnly, will live.
iilij Judge Mack says he doesn’t
!;!want a homeland where all of the
Jews in the world will live.
The gehtlemen need not worry.
There wqn’t be any homeland
established, for all the Jews in the
jworld wouldn’t go there. All the
Scotchmen in the world don’t go
j ito Edinburgh, all the Irishmen to
’ Dublin; or, all the Welsh to the un
pronounceable, unspellable place
Ijjwhere Lloyd George was born.
Jews, Irish, Scotch and Welsh
ihave important business all over

other races mentioned, ought to
have one central homeland, send

;' Poincare warns the approaching
conference that it must under no
circumstances try to cut down the
size of Germany’s debt, hut must
try to find some way of making
payment possible (that means old
Uncle Sam). Monsieur Poincare,
as he speaks, sheds tears freely.
That iriuat remind Germany of the
' walrus ahd the carpenter.
“I weep for you,” the walrus
said, “I deeply sympathize.” With
sobs and tears he sorted out those
of the largest size, holding his
pocket handkerchief before his
streaming eyes.
Monsieur Loucheur, ablest finan
, cial mind in France, tells Ameri
cans, “you must put out of your
minds all idea of getting the
taoney that-France owes you. Pay
ment is impossible. Consider the
stupendous sum France owes you.*’
amount that France owes us
is a little over four billion dollars.
Loucheur may be right, payment
may be impossible.
But this puzzles you. Poincare,
consenting to a conference, says
there must not be any suggestion
of cutting down the amount he
thinks Germany should pay. The
amount is thirty billions.
If France can’t pay “the stu
pendous sum” of four billioni, how
can Germany pay more than seven
times as much? Will the world
conference answer that question?
Ordinary arithmetic won't answer
it.

A
Earner Here
urges Higher
Wheat Tariff
Kansas Senator Declares
Higher Rate for Grain Only
Means of Immediate
Relief.
Immediate relief for the wheat
farmer of the middle west can only
be effected by a higher tariff on
wheat, according to Senator Arthur
Capper of Kansas, in Omaha Tuesday,
guest of the Omaha Rotary club.
In making this declaration Senator
Capper echoed the sentiments of Sena
tor It. B. Howell and Nelson B. Up
dike of Omaha, who have been advo
cating ami fighting far the high tariff
for months; y, .
“If we are to hare a high pro
tective tariff the farmer should de
rive its benefits as much if not more
than anyone else," the senator de
clared.
Canadian Wheat Hurts U. S.
> “This country has a surplus of
wheat on hand within its own borders
which must be taken care of and to
have Canadian wheat pouring over
its borders to increase this surplus
and force the price down still further
can be nothing except disastrous to
farmers of the middle west.
“I would say that Canadian wheat
can be produced for 25 per cent less
than our own wheat. This Is due to
cheap land and different living con
ditions. This 25 per cent means a
corresponding lowering in price of
Canadian wheat, which the American
farmer, with high land and overhead,
cannot meet.
Favors Co-Operative Idea.
“The idea of co-operative market
ing which is being advanced as a
means of relieving the conditions of
the wheat farmer is admirable. How
ever, it is not practical for the plight
of the wheat farmer at this particu
lar time. At its best the gigantic
co operative plan cannot function for
a year or two years and immediate
relief is necessary. It, to my mind,
can only be afforded by a higher
protective tariff.
“In certain localities co-operative
marketing has undoubtedly proved a
success. To date, however, a co
operative plan embracing the entire
mitmmm Jm ' 1
wheat country ha* failed because it
has lacked personijerdn man used to
handling big affairs in a big way. We
must have big men to operate large
organizations."
Clips Newspapers.
The senator, at this point, delved
into a capacious side pocket and pro
duced a handful of newspaper clip
pings, the result of his morning
perusal of Omaha da.lies.
"I clip papers and send the clip
pings to the boys on my papers down
in Topeka. Here is one jCrorp one of
your Omaha papers which in its head
A Young Chicken, Would You bay:
At the age of 101, Mrs. Anna Blair of Baltimore, Md.. Is as spry as the
chlrkens which she arises to feed at 5 o'clock, after wliich she does aU her
regular household duties. ____
line summarizes the wheat situation.”
The caption of the article read:
"Canada Wheat Purchases Keep
Chicago Prices Down.” s
Ceolidge Strong In Kansas.
From the suhject of the wheat
farmer Senator Capper drifted into
a d.scussion of national politics as it
affects Kansas.
"The republicans seem united on
Coolidge for the nomination at this
time," he said. “The sentiment seems
to be that unless the president makes
a big mistake, and apparently there
is no indication that he will, he will
be accorded the Kansas delegation at
the convention.
“In democratic politics the leaders
in Kansas appear to be for McAdoo.
However, there is a tendency among
some to urge the candidacy of Gov
Jonathan Davis, a native son. There
Is some Ford sentiment down there
As to whether It will crystaiize Into
anything formidable is problematical.”
At noon Senator Capper was a
guest of M. C. Peters at the Omaha
club. A number of grain men and
bankers Interested in the Capper
Tincher bill were present at the
luncheon.

Army Equipment
Washington, Oct. 30.—The old "Bn
hat” which served the Yanks so well
in France as a head protector has
become a necessary pas t of- Ibe'rti'.a.
ers' equipment, the Department of
Interior has announced.
Before the advent of the tin hat
miners used stiff resined felt hats
which were exceedingly hot and un
comfortable. Now, owing to the
cheapness and plentlfulness of thd
helmets, the former h;rve become
obsolete.
Trench shoes also have become very
popular In mining centers, the de
partment states. Their durability
and thickness affords the miner a
cheap shoe and excellent protection
for his feet.

150 Youths Are j
Sworn in as Cops
Deputized for Hallowe’en
Duty—Will Work With
Regular Officers.
Over 150 youths were sworn In as
special officers to curb destruction
to property during Hallowe'en by Po
lice Commissioner Henry W. Dunn
Monday. The lads are over 8. All
received white ribbon designed with
a star as their official badges.
The city has been divided into 25
districts. One police offxer will be
stationed on Hnllowe’en duty in each
district, aided by boy volunteers.
Commissioner Dunn emphasized the
idea that the lads were not only to
report malicious destruction to prop
erty, but, if they behaved as good
officers, they would also prevent It
to a great extent.
So eager were the youths to ac
quire their badges that they .caused
officer# trouble in preserving order.
Even the smallest of the amateur
policemen were certain, that in rase
of impend,ng physical and bodily
danger they could acquit themselves
honorably. A ndlnber of the volun
teers were Boy Scouts.
The lads will patrol the city both
tonight and Wednesday night. Boys
who gave their names for volunteer

Jilted Widower Buys Home From

Poets and philosophers In all ages

Consider the case of 'William
Schneider, 40, widower and retired
farmer of University Place, Neb.,
who filed suit In district court to
get back a house nt 1S09 Military
avenue w'hioh he gave to his
flaneee, Ituth Livington. who, he
says, then refused to wed him.
The real estate records show that
this pVoperty was bought March 3,
1921, by one Ruth loveless from
Nathan Somberg and wife for $5,
000. It was sold to Schneider on
July 10, 1923, by Ruth Loveless for
$5,750, and by. him deeded to Ruth
Livingston.
The signatures of the two Ruths
are practically the same and D. j.
Rhoades, president of the American
Banking and Finance company,
employed to dispose of the property,
said the two are identical as far as
his concern, which listed the proper

A woman at the Military avenue
address, who said she was a sister
of Mrs. Livingston, said this mom-y
