THE OMAtfA BEE ' A KANSAS STRIVES TO SET RECORD IN VHEAT CROP Discrepancy Between Federal ahd' State Forecasters Ex- pelted to Be Cleared by X-f. Report. " Topfcka' Kan., Aug. 20. Mort light OA tti size of the Kansas wheat ' .' crop whether it will be Kansas' ' second or third largest is expected ' tomorrow when the Kansas state board "'of agriculture issues its , monthly estimate. Question has been -raised by, difference of 26,000,000 : bushels, between estimates of state and federal authorities. The discrepancy turns on different means employed in calculating acre "!ige in (Wheats according to a state ' toent trow the Kansas agricultural board. ... ' .Difference in Figures. . The state board says it based its - teporf on the wheat 'acreage as sftown by figures turned in this year y assessors of the 105 counties of the state. The assessors' returns -increased the wheat acreage esti mated, last fall 1,574,964 acres. In its July estimate the state board ustd the total acreage shown on the assessors' reports, 8,943,098 acres. The report of , the federal statisti cian issued on August 10 used the . acreage estimated last fall, 7,725,000. This makes a difference of 1,218,098 acres. v "It is the custom of the federal statisticians not to accept the asses sors' acreage figures until the final report on the yield, after threshing is completed," said Secretary J. C. 7 Mohler of the state board. "This difference in acreage practically 'ac counts for the discrepancy at this time. I am certain that later report ' on the crop will not show less than 150,000.000 bushels." , feidmates 156 Million. v -Meanwhile ; Clyde M. Reed, a judge of the state industrial relations court, who is supervising the strug- ygle the state is making to furnish grain cars with which to haul the 1920 wheat crop o market, has made V public an estimate, based on thresh ing returns, tfcat the crop will ex ceed 156,000,000 bushels. The record Kansas wheat crop was grown in 1914. It amounted to 180,924,885, bushels. Thus, Secre tary Mohler claims, this year's crop ejs the second largest o record, Fed , eral Crop Statisticians Edward C. Paxton's August report said this ,was the tmrd largest crop, his estii mate of 143,049,000 bushels being 'smaller than both the 10t4 rrnn anrl ' 1 . Tne state board gathers its 4 ' d statistics from 2.200 corre spondents, practically one for every township of , 36 square (miles; the federal statistician has 1,800 corre spondents, i V.l Railroads Agree on Embargo on Coal to Tidewater Points Washington, Aug. 20. An im mediate embargo pn the movement of coal to tidewater except upon a definite showing that the coal upon arrival at piers would be unloaded into vessels with reasonable prompt ness, has been agreed upon by the railroads, it was announced today by the American Railroad associa tion. J ' i In a statement the association said that at a conference held yesterday . by Chairman Willard of the Asso ciation of Railway Executives and Col.. D. B. Wentz, president of the National Coal association with rep resentatives rf the commission on ar service of thi American Railroad ..association, tidewater coal carrying : Jines serving Hampton Roads and the north, Various tidewater coal exchanges and the American Whole sale Trade Coal association, it was decided, that such changes should be made in the, regulations of the ' tidewater coal '. exchange which & handles shipments through New " York, Philadelphia and Baltimore as would result in penalizing the hold . ing of bituminous coal by individual members of the exchange beyond the free time permitted in estab lished coal demurrage, tariffs. Agetl Veteran of War Of '65 Seeks to Have His Record Cleared -Hi. ' ' Jl Leavenworth, Kan., Aug. 20. Samuel T. King, 74 years old, a resi dent of Joplin, Mo., appeared today ttit United States disciplinary bavacks at Fort LeaVen worth and "sEed that he be locked up as a ' dsSerter, or else that his civil war " reford be cleared. King wept while ! tolling his story to Lieutenant r Colonel Rosenbaum, assistant com mandant of the prison. Colonel Rosenbaum refused to hold the aged veteran and said the matter would be investigated. King had documents to show that he was honorably discharged Febru ary 10. 1865. on a surgeon's certifi cate of disability issued by the ad jutant genial of Missouri. He also showed papers from the bureau of records and pensions in Washington, which stated that he had twice deserted in 1864 being convicted of desertion by a court martial between the time of the two alleged offenses. Should King's record vbe cleared, army officers de clared he would be entitled to more than $20,000 in back pension. He Returns Gift of King f : : n Because Sons Penniless London, Aug? 20. Because his two sons who fought in the war are unemployed and penniless in spite of ,their willingness to work, the care-taker of the landing stage of the f Royal Yacht squadron at Cowes re turned to King George a diamond scarf pirti the king's gift at the end of the yachting week. "!Until those who served his ma jesty's country during the war," read the note accompanying the re ; tamed gift, "are provided with ' houses and employment, I Mould Father not accept any. flfrlJWP his That Gash Buying Pays at Hayden's Is Clearly Demonstrated by the Superior:Ya!ues Offered Buyers HereEvery Day.
