Failure to Name Shipping
Board Members Despite
Law ilits Farmers, Cou-
'gressman Declares.
Dlair, Xcb., Oct. 8. (Soer ialclc
gram.) Congressman A. W. Jef
feris, candidate for rc-clection in tlie
Second district, addressed a repub
lican meeting here tonight, explain
ing to the farmers of this community
why discriminatory ocean flour rates
under a democratic regime are af
fecting the milling industry and the
agricultural interests of Nebraska,
a,s well a, other wheat-producing
Ftntes of the country.
"The shipping lo;ud as adminis
tered by the two members hereto
fore appointed by the president, and
the president's failure to appoint the
other five members as provided in
. the law of June 5,sJ920, is depriving
American labor and Hour mill of an
opportunity to compete with the
millers and labor of Great Uritain
in the flour busincss""of Europe, and
is more aim more leading to the es
tablishment by the milters of Great
Britain the price of American
wheat," said the congressman.
Rates Are Boosted.
Continuing he said: "The shipping
board, whiclrwas one of the created
war agencies, tinder the war powers
given to the president in January,
1920, promulgated ocean freight
rates, providing that the rate on
flour would-be 25 cents per 100
pounds above that charged for
wheat; whereas, prior to the war,
mid under normal ocean freight con
ditions, the .differentials between
pecan rates on flour over wheat
ranged from 2 to 6 cents per 100
liounds Under prewar conditions
American millers were able to over
come the discrimination of 2 to 6
cnts and complete with European
countries in the sale of flour.
"Under the tortus of the new
merchant marine net of June 5, 1920,
the rate-making power was taken
from the shipping board, but at a
meeting of that board, held on June
18, 1920 this partial board that the
ffresident had appointed passed a
resolution stating that in the judg
.ment of the board the ocean rate for
flour, 25 cents per 100 pounds
iibove that for wheat, was justified
ind the steamship managers are thus
fortified in the present discrimina
tion against American mills and
American labor by the resolutions
of a shipping board, or rather a
partial shipping board, which is, in
(ct, without jurisdiction in the mat
President Has Failed.
; "Why the president of the United
States has not appointed five" addi
tional members to the shipping
board, is up to the present time, un-
xplamed. It was certainly not in
tended by congress, when1 they en
acted the law of June 5, 1921). that
any two men were to etercise the
authority conferred by that act, not
was it ever intended by congress in
the enactment of that law that the
membership, whether partial or in
full, insofar as the board is con
cerned, should encourage the up
building of the milling interests of
Great Britain, to the detriment and
destruction of American mills and'
labor thereof.
"The advantageous freight rates
have given to the foreign miller a
very distinct advantage, not only in
competing, for trade in his own
country, but competing for trade in
other countries where milling is not
generally established. American
millers have for years enjoyed an
export flour trade to Holland. Den
mark, Norway and Sweden. Under
the present discriminatory rates mil
lers in Great Britain are in a posi
tion to secure , American wheat,
grind it into flour and not only
secure that flour business in Great
Britain which for more than a gen
eration has been served bv Ameri
can mills but also to offer flour
in jothfr 'European countries at
Pfices which render business by
American mills impossible.
Curtails Industry.
"By the shipment of wheat as a
raw material to Great Britain the
dairy interests lose the feed, such
as bran and shorts, the men em
ployed by the American mills lose
their opportunities for labor by the
curtailment of the flour industry' of
the United States, and the cost of
operating the mills only a part of
the 24 hours of the day, have a ten
dency to increase the cost of milling
the flour in the United States. It
also has a tendency to centralize
the market for wheat in Qrcat Brit
ain and thus permit the export mar
ket to determine largclj' the price
the American farmer is to" obtain
for his Wheat."

De Valera Ready
Tq Step Out for
Real Irish Kins:
President of Republic An
nounces Tbat He Will Not
Stand in Way of Duke
Of York.
By ROBERT J. PREW,
I nhrr.nl Srrvlce Btaff forrmtpondrnt.
London, Oct. 9. President La-
jiionn JJe ajera ot toe insn rcpun-
ic will not stand in the way of the
d'lke of York, second son of King
George of England, becoming King
I'atrick I of Ireland.
This in formal ion was contained in
i secret message received in Lou
den by the Irish Vigilance society
from the Irish Vigilance society that
i organized in the United States.
The one definite proviso is that the
new king, if he ascends the throne,
shall be responsible only to the Irish
people. Before the London organi
zation makes an answer to America
the matter will be brought to the at
tention of the Irish republican lead
ers in Ireland.
Text of Message.
The message, which was decoded
at a secret meeting in Loudon, said:
"This is a synopsis of the official
record of recent proceedings con
nected with citizen De Valera and
the establishment of the Irish repub
lic of which he is president. While
we recognize that De Valera is a
man of probity, uprightness, in
tegrity and untarnished record, we
cannot conceal that for a long time
Jie has shown S'.gns of weakness to
ward ambition and vanity. For the
best interest of Ireland he has been
told so, and to his honor be it said,
he did not resen4. our plain talkinp
It was pointed out to De Valera tjiat
Ireland was a kingly and .queenly
nation evwi before the Christian era
and that ifs, monarchial .connection
with England was one of centuries."
No Hope for Throne.
The message then read that Presi
dent DeYaler.'i did not offer an
objection" to Ireland as a kingdom
prwided the king was responsible
only to the Irish people.
' "The frank statement," the mes
sage concluded, "disposes once and
for all of what might have been an
ambition to ascend the throne, for
we all know that De Valera is Amer
ican to his backbone and consequent
ly in allegiance to his native laud,
relies on the protection of the Star
Spangled Banner.''
A prominent London weekly an
nounced a scheme to have the prince
of Wales try his hand at settling the
Irish question by acting as regent
until a permanent form of govern
ment could be set up. "

"The workmanship and finish on the

whether it be a product of Europe
or America." '
THE full force of this striking,
statement from an eminent Eng
lish authority wiH be instantly
apparent to anyone at ail familiar
with the fine motor cars of Europe,
It's chief interest and Importance
consists in the fact that it places the
Cadillac on a parity of excellence.
with the best European cars of very
much higher price, whose reputa
tion has rested upon the very points
now conceded to the Cadillac.
Several of these cars have, indeed, '
sold hitherto for as much as three ,
times tjie price of the Cadillac;
but the same writer, in another
part of his editorial, admits that,
the Cadillac has broken down the
wall of prejudice existing in England
against American cars.
"By reason of its up-to-date de
sign" he says, "excellence of
material and workmanship, and
fine performance on the road, it
has for some considerable time
been generally accepted as one of
the finest, if not the finest, of
American models imported into
this country
Again, this same frank admirer cor
roborates the opinion of American
army officers and observers generally,
in pronouncing the Type 59 an even
greater car than the great war Cadillac

He lays stress on Cadillac progress
and devejopment during the past two
years, emphasizing the experience
gained in arduous war services, and
pointing out that in many respects
including coachwork and greater
driving comfort and luxury the
Cadillac shows marked advance over
its own previous high standards.
He refers again and again to thejjeauty
of the Cadillac and its . enhanced
charm of appearance, speaking of it
in one instance as "giving the impres

With distinguished foreign observers
pronouncing the Cadillac the equal
of their own costliest productions,
which far exceed it in price, what
