If
Car Shortage in
Nebraska to Be
Given Attention
Interstate Commerce Commis
sion Attributes Holding Up
Of Grain to Other Causes
Than Car Scarcity.
Was!urgtonD. C, Oct.' 1 Spe
cial Telegram.) Assurances jhat the
Kraiu car shortage in Nebraska ii
, beingXgiven "constant nnd careful
attention." were furnished ti the
office of Senator Hitchcock today bv
Clyde B. Aitchison, Interstate Com-
njerce commissioner in special
, charge of car service. ' "
ITis statement was made in re
sponse to a request made WSenator
Hitchcock last week tor reuet m the
Nebraska car situation and for in
formation as- to what is being done.
Futures furnished bv the commis
sion on the number of car owned by
Nebraska lines in their hands at
present as- compared witli the num-
. ber a year ago, show a distinct de
crease 11 this year $ suppiy over jast
year's. The commission said how
ever, that "taking injtio consideration
the amount ef grain moved by the
lines a year ago and now, it does
not appear that the movement this
year has been correspondingly af
fected as the result of Jhe car short
age." ' '
Admits Decrease In Cars.
Further emphasizing this pou:t,
VLommissioner Aitchison aid:
"Your attention is called to the
. loading of grain products in August
last year and this year, indicating
i that except upon the line of the Chi'
cago and Northwestern there has
ben a considerable decrease ja the
number of cars loaded this year, but
thaf.there has aot. been a correspond
1 ing decrease in " the movement of.
other traffic loaded box ears. It is
therefore natural to suppose that the
tailing off in themovement of irram
this year is not altogether chargeable
to the car shortage. Indication? po.nt
to the fact that the light movement
is largely -due to other causes, such
as the downward trend of the mar-
keVlhe holding for better prices andl
tne iow mWement of export gram,
.if-. Omaha Demands Mttl'
Tfte commissioner sai thejr;.re
portt ; from railroad representatives
at Omaha "indicated .that the de
mands of shippers for cars in that
. immediate vicinity were being met
in full, although some shortage ex
isted in the, western , part of the
state. ,
The commissioner further stated
that, efforts were being made to
move cars steadily from various sec
tions of the east and- soath, into
grain-producing territory on reloca
tion .orders "specially designed to
provide necessary.: equipment .'in
which to. move the grain "crop." Ex
plaining what has been done in this
regard, Commissioner Aitchison
said:
"The principal lines serving the
state of Nebraska benefited by these
relocation orders arc as follows:
"C, St P., M. & O., 2700 cars;
"tV& N. W., 2.297; C, B. & Q.,
.2,418;: C, R. I. & P., 8,076; U. P.,
' 12,729; M. P.. 2,137. At the present
. time, orders are in effect calling for
the movement of the following:.
- ' Cart To Be Equalized.
A "To the C, St. P., M. & O., 1,200;
to the CkB. & Q., 1,198; R. I., 3,100;
to the U-. P., 4,200. ' . "
. "In addition to this, instructions
have been recently put mto effect at
'the principal points of interchange
' requiring the various connections of
these western lines to equalize with
them pn boxcars.
"As respects the percentage of
home boxcars on home roads,', will
say that while it is a fact that the
boxcars of the entire country are
badly scattered, a consistent effort
is being made to get these cars back
to their owners in the most practical
manner and in placing orders for re
location of cars tojhe west, it is re
quired that those cars belonging to
the roads in that territory and "which
are. best suited to the needs, of. the
traffic shall be given preference in
filling such orders."

"I "wish I were in a position, to

wrote Mr. Carlson, "fof I feel that
the president is sadly misquoftd, but,
of course, as the meeting was a se
cret one,. I can say nothing." .
Mr.. Carlson's letter was made

Senator Spencer, in his reply to
President Wilson's telegram of Oc
tober 5, safe! the statement which, he
had attributed to,the president "was
made upon the floor of the fnate

Reed, and so far as-I have learned,
has never been denied until now." -
In his speech of February 2, Sen
ator Reed quoted from a copyrighted

i Guarantee to Save Peace.
"We are trying to make a peace
ful settlement that is to sav. to
eliminate those elements "of dis
turbance, so far as possible, which
may interfere with the peace of the
world, and we are trying to make
an equitable distribution of territor
ies according to the races, the eth
nographical character of the Dcoolel
mnaoiting tnose territories.-.
And back of that lies this funda
mentally important fact that when
the decisions are made, the allied and
associated powers guarantee to main
tain them. ... And, there
fore, we must hot close our eyes to
the fact that in the last analysis the
military and naval strength of the
great powers will be .the final guar
antee ot the peace ot the world.
:"Take the rights of -minorities.
Nothing, I venture to say, is more
likely to disturb the . peace of the
world than the treatment " which
might in certain circumstances be
meted out to minorities.1 And, there
fore, if the greatpowers are to guar
antee the peace of- the world in any
sense, Is it nntust that they should
be satisfied that the proper and neces
sary guarantees jhave Been given?

"How can a power like the United

for no others-after signing this
treaty, if it contains elements which

yet there underlies all of these trans
actions the exception on the part,
for example, of Roumania, and of
Czecho-Slovakia, and of Siberia, 'that
if any covenants .of .this settlement
are not observed, the United States
will send her armies and her navies
to see that they are observed.
"In those circumstances, is it un
reasonable, that the United States
should insist upon being satisfied
that the settlements are correct. .. . .
"I beg my friend, Mr. Kramar, and
my friend,. Mr. Trumbic, and my
friend, Mr. Brotiano, to believe that
if we should feel that it is best to
leave the words which they have
wished to omit, in the treaty, it is
not because we want to insist upon
unreasonable conditions, hut that we
want the treaty to accord to us the
fight of jud'gmcnt as to- whether
those' are things we can afford to
guarantee.

"Therefore, the impression with
which we should dispense ought to
be these, that we are all friends of.
course that goes without saying
but that we must all be associates in
a common effort . .
. "Now, if the agreement is a
si arate agreement among groups of
us, that does not meet the object If
you should adopt the language sug
gested by the Czecho-Slovakian
delegates and the Serbian delegation,
the Jugo-Slovak delegation, that it
should be left to negotiation be
tweeo the principal allied and asso
ciated powers and their several dele
gates, that would mean tmtr after
this whole conferencee is adjourned
groups of them would determine
what is to be the basis of the peace
of the world. It seems to me that
iljat would be a most dangerous idea
to entertain,' and, therefore, I beg
that we may part with a sense, not
of interference with each other, but
of hearty and friendly co-operation
upon the only possible basis of guar
antee. Where the great force lies
there must be the sanction of peace.
"I sometimes' wish, in .hearing an
argument like this, that I were the
representative of a .small power so
that what I said might be robbed of
any mistaken significance, but I
think you will agree with me that
the United States has neyer shown
any temper of aggression anywhere,
and it lies in the heart of the people
of the United States, as I am sure
it! lies in the hearts of the peoples
of the other great powers, to form
a common partnership of right, and
to do service tto our associates, and
no kind of dfsservice."

Scores of Cotton
Gins Are Qosed
By Night Riders
Campaign to Keep Staple
From -Market Until Price
Advances, Being Car
ried on in- South.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Be Leaeed Wire,
Atlanta. Ga.. Oct 11. An econom
ic impasse rs threatened in ueorgia
and adjoining states by the cam
paign of night-riders to shut down
the gins until the price ot cotton
advances to 40 cents a pound, rrac
tically all business in the south is
based on cotton and when the sta
pie is not going to market, business
begins to sutler .'
By their warning notices ' ordering
gins to close, coupled with an iniT
lied threat to burn, the night-riders
ave succeeded in closing score of
gins. .Not only have they intimi
dated the ginners, Hut they are even
posting cotton fields with notices
that the staple must not be picked.
These notices recall to ' negroes
memories of Klu Klux Klan. just
after the Civil war, and it is said
the negroes cannot be induced to
enter the posted fields. The dread
of the negroes is increased by the
fact that the old Klu Klux Klan has
been reorganized, and has many
lodges. Of course the new Klu Klux
Klan has nothing to do with night-
riding, as it is a fraternal organiza
tion, chartered in Georgia, but one
can't get negroes to believe that the
Klu Klux Klan is not involved in
the posting of gins aid cotton fields.
Although gins are guarded and tne
governors of Georgia and Alabah.
have issued proclamations offering
ewards for the arrest ot night-rid
ers, the campaign to keep cotton
from the market continues.
Want 40 Cents a Pound.; r
The farmers expected 40 cents for
the present crop, and they see ruin
if they have to accept 24 cents, the
present price. Their expenses were
based on a 40-cent expectation and
they claim they must get about that
price to meet obligations to the
banks and merchants. Meanwhile
with no cotton being ginned or mar
keted, the obligations are not being
met The safes manager of one of
the largest fertilizer concerns savs
his company will" not collect 50 per
cent of what is due from farmers
this season.
The leaders of the farm organiza
tions put the blame squarely on the
Wilson administration. Secretary
Houston and Governor Harding of
the federal reserve system have de
clared that the reserve banks would
not extend credit to enable farmers
to hold cotton. Tt staple has been
dropping ever since, and farmers at-,
lege that they an being discrimi
nated against by the Wilson adminr
istration. .. . . . t
Replies to Harding.
L. B. Jackson, director of the
Georgia bureau of markets, has is
sued a strong reply to the state
ment of Governor Hacding that it
is up to the south to finance its crop,
is the north could not do it for thif
section. Mr. Jackson declared that
no one has asked' the north to aid
the south, nor has such a thing yet
been intimated. ;
J.J. Brown, Georgia commissioner
of agriculture, has begun a move1
ment for the cotton states to put on
a quarantine next year prohibiting
ton.
He claims this, would exterminate
the boll weevil and the farmers
could then get as much for the pres
ent crop as for two combined.
The feeling against the administra
tion because of its cotton policy is
alarming democratic leaders, who
frankly admit that they expert it to
result in a heavy increase in the re
publican vote in November and a re
duction in the democratic vote.
Georgia is bitterly anti-Wilson, as
evidenced by the overwhelming de
feat of administration forces in the
primaries this, year. Political ex
perts say that this anti-Wilson feel
ing has been so increased by the cot
ton situation that Harding and Cool
idge wiTTget the heaviest vote ever
cast for republican candidates in
Georgia.
It is a common remark that if
there were no negro question the
state would go republican. - - .

Harvest Escapes
Serious Damase
Condition Indicates Highest
Average Since 1906
-Yield of 251,619,000
Bushels Forecast.
The United States bureau of crop
estimates and state agricultural de
partment in a report based on Oc
tober 1 conditions, yesterday esti-
mr.fd Nebraska s 1920 torn crop at
251,019,000 bushels. '
Last year's production was 184,-
.86,000 bushels, and the five-year
average was.192,430,000 bushels. The
present condition 'indicates the high
est average yield since 1906. While
killing frosts came slightly earlier
than usual, the weather had been
so favorable for drying and matur
ing corn during the previous three
weeks that the percentage of dam
aged corn is small. A few of the
correspondents report sone damage,
but most of the comments state that
corn had matured sufficiently to
escape damage. An estimate -of
yield will be made 't month.
I he average yield of oats is 35
bushels per acre as compared to
32.8 bushels last year. The total
production is 74,655,000 bushels as
compared to 69.962.000 bushels last
year, and ' the five year average of
8,j,uw ousneis. ine yieias are
exceptionally good over the entire
state except in parts ot the north
eastern quarter.
The yield of spring wheat is 11
bushels Der acre. Last year the
yield was 8.S bushels. There was a
heavy reduction in acreage this year
and the production is 4.411,000 bush
els compared to 5,678,UPU bushels
last year. Black rust and scab are
responsible for the light yields.
Some of the spring wheat was not
worth threshing. The preliminary
estimate of all wheat is now 56,777,-
000 bushels, as compared to 60,675,-
000 bushels last year.
The yield of barley is very good.
bin's 30 bushels compared to 25.7
bushels last year. The production
is 5,850,000 bushels compared to 5,
577,000 bushels a year ago.
A condition of yu per cent on the
potato crop indicates a production
of 10,109,000 bushels compared to
6,325,000 bushels, last year and the
five-year.average of 9,669,000 bushels.
Last year's yield was very low. If

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire.
Sedalia, Mo., Oct. 11. Senator
Harding traveled homeward Sun
day convinced that nothing will
stop the middlewest from turning to
the fepuBlican party for domestic
reconstruction and international
.guidance, and that the best thing he
can do is to spend the remaining
days of the campaign in the Ohio
battlefield. - - .
. The eastern trio, which was to
have started October 21. with
speech at Buffalo, probably will be
abandoned. His last trip out of
Marion, according to the present
plan, will begin next Tuesday, when
he will leave for Chattanooga, and
will end at St. Louis on the 16, with
speeches at Louisville and Indiana
polis on the 14 and 15.
Take Hamon. Oklahoma commit
teeman, redeemed his promise to
give Harding a great meeting in
Oklahoma City. In some respects
this was the greatest meeting of the
camoaiarn. it was the most vocner
ous, at least. There was a crush
amounting almost to a panic to get
a view of the candidate.
The people seemed amazed at the
republican doctrine. They had been
led to think in terms of Cox and
democracy, lheir papers told them
little of what the republicans were
saving and doing. They wanted to
be nice to Harding, but they intended
to vote for Cox in November.
But Harding overcame a good deal
of this. His meeting was a triumph,
for this was the first time a repub
lican presidential candidate ever vis
ited Oklahoma, add his meeting was
the biggest either party has held in
this campaign. It is not impossible
that the state will go republican.
The candidate took up the nrgro
question, fired at him in the city
paper. Asked if he favored race
segregation and if he would favor
the force bill, introduced by-Senator
Lodge in 1899, which author
ized the use of federal military
forces, if necessary, to supervise
'THE Dual Valve principle liiarlcs
as notable an advance as the
Worm Gear, which has revolution
ized motor truck propulsion since
introduced by PierceArr6w in 1910.

elections in the south, thereby guar
anteeing the full negro vote, the sen
ator replied: !
."J have not come from old Ohio
to tell you how t solve your prob
lems of the south. Somebody asked
me what I would do about the racial
situation. I would not come and an
swer that for you. , That is too e
rious a problem for some of us to
solve , who do not know it as you
do in your daily lives.
"But I would not be a fit presi
dent of the United States if I did
not tell you in the south precisely
the same thing as I would say in the
north: I want you to kpow I be
lieve in equality before the law. That
is on of the guarantees of the Amer
ican constitution.
"You caiutot give rights to a white
man and deny the same right to a
black man; but, while I stand for
that particular principle, I want you
in Oklahoma to know that does not
mean, and I do not intend that it
shall mean, the white man and the
black must be made to experience
the enjoyment of their rights in each
other's company. (Great applause.)
"Somebody asked me if 1 am not
to revive the force bill when I am
elected president of the United,
States. I do not know that they
said i, in just that way, but, let me
tell you, people of Oklhoma and of
the south, the force bill has been
dead for a quarter of a century, and
I am a normal American citizen, and
a normal man could not resurrect
the dead if he wanted to." (Great
applause.)
Another question put to him at
the meeting related to the . Irish
problem. The senator took this up.
declaring that, while official America
could not presume to tell England
vhat to do, he would join the kiends
of Irish freedom to make sure that
no league of nations "blocked their
way to righteous action."
