Assault Against
' Dealers in Grain
Glowers of Middle West Say
Manipulations Are Largely
Responsible for Recent
Drop in Prices.
fhlrafa Tribonamaha I!e Leaard Wire.
Washington, Nov. 17. A united
sssautt by midwest congressmen on

tors and on the Minneapolis millers

of congress is promised by Coti-1
. gressman U i-rank Reavis of Ne
braska, who reached Washingtoa
today. 1 , 1
i The grain growers of the midwest,
i says Reavis, charge that market ma
nipulations have had much to do with
i-.nreasonably depressing the price
of wheat, corn and other grains while
,the millers ' have juggled the grain
standardizations to buy from the
(grower! at low standards and sell
I to the consumers at high standards.
i - "Midwest congressmen wilt get
together before the opening of con
igress," said Reavis, "and present
a united front in demanding legis
lation that shall prohibit gambling
ion the grains and regulate dealings
on the Chicago and other boards of
trade, where grains are handled. We
shall demand also a new federal
system of grain standardization We
know that the Minneapolis millers
have sold millions of barrels of flour
represUed as produced from No. 2
' wheat, standard graded, more 'him
could have been produced from No.
t Z wheat purchased by them. , They,
in fact, bought the wheat from the
farmers at a lower grade than No. 2
and paid for it a price less than for
(No 2 in the market. We shall ask
system of grading that will enable
the grower to grade his wheat be
fore it gf es to the miller, and penal
ties on fhe miller for misrepfsent
big the grads of wheat in the flour
Such legislation will protect both
' the wheat grower and the flour con
sumer." '
Reavis said also that the midwest
congressmen Would present unitedly
'a demand on the treasury, farm bank
' board and federal reserve b'oard that
a more liberal construction be placed
on' the farm loan act to the end
that the farmers may get financiat
' treatment.. He claimed that such a
course jby the government was. neces
sary to enable the farmrs to tide
themselves over a present distress-
, ful situation

Habitue Deported
Plattsmouth, ' Neb., Nov. 17.
(Special.) For the first time in
more than four years the Cass
county jail is deserted, as Sheriff
Quinton has lost his oldest and most
faithful boarded, Fritz Deitl, who
was arrested in 1916 and given a
short jaH sentence on the charge of
vagrancy.
. Pleased with the excelfcncy of his
surroundings, Fritz refused .to be
sent forth when his term Vxpired,
and was sent to th, county poor
farm. Here hi shitflessness soon
put him in bad with the superintend
ent and resulted, in his being re
turned to the xut-ty bastile.
Since then all efforts to get him
to leave have provwi futile except
once when. he was sent forth to bat
tle for himself, and upon being out
a few weeks was again picked up,
as he had worn out his clothing and
was an unfit object for the gaze of
the public.
Now the United States govern
ment has decided that as "Fritzie"
was "made in Germany," back to
Germany he shall go. Accordingly
a representative of the immigration
department canae for him a few
days ago and soon he will be de
ported from Ellis Island on a boat
bound for his native land.

Use Own Judgment
In Selling Products
Waterloo. Ia., Nov. 17. That the
farmers of Iowa would use their own
judgment in disposing of the pro
ducts of their farms seemed to be the
general opinion of the agricultural
men of the state upon leaving the
meeting of farmers and bankers to
day. Bankers declared they had
gone the limit in financing farmers
and recommended the selling oi farm
products to help liquidate their obli
gations. About 500 bankers and miners at
tended the meeting held to seek some
way to overcome present difficulties.
B. H. Cunningham, secretary of the
Farm Bureau federation, Ames, la.,
in an address quoted figures to show
that it cost the Iowa farmer 75 cents
to produce a bushel of oats and said
the farmers were hauling it away for
40 cents. He said every bushel of
corn cost $1 to produce, while the
farmer was forced to sell it for 60c.
"These figures will show beyond
doubt what will happen to the farm
er who is payine high rental or the
man who made a small payment on
his farm recently purchased.", he said.
He advised the farmer to "sit tight"
until "grain gets somewhere near the
prive of production." He also stat
ed Iowa farmers were willing to as
sume some of the loss but did not
deem it their duty to shoulder the en
tire responsibility of bringing prices
back to normal.
