clare,, developing in America,
which call- for careful, scientific in
vestigation; If dangerous attacks are being
n.ade on private property in land,
the only effective way to combat
them, he said, is through (air and
impartial research. He announced
that the institute of which he is the
head will study urban tenancy and
its trend, th? bearing of taxation
upon land values, the effects of
large land holdings, and the rela
tion of rent theories to the facts of
economics.
Resolutions were adopted urging
city fealty boards to work for
scientific Cc-ity planning and zoning,
for lower freight rates, especially
on building materials; for designa
tion of all "realtors" as such in tele
phone and classified' directories; for
restoration inVtbe federal revenue

ducing to .'10 per cent, the corpora
tion income tax on concerns making'
less than 8-per cent net profits, an
for exemption from taxation of th!

in building and loan associations.

Work, Says Pugilist.
. Morrie Schlaifer'i irrest Tuesday
night, 'following hit' knockout of
Frankie Wtlch, wis on. in maici
ment returned by the grand jury Sat
urday, it was learned yesterday.
The United States marshal's office
held off the capias so ts not to in
terfere with the fight.
Schlaifcr will leave tonight for
a fight engagement in Minneapolis.
United States Attorney Kinsler
gave him permission to leave the
atate under the $500 bond.
Schlaifer is charged in the indict
ment ' witn "mailing non-mauaoie
matter." He confessed to sending
such a letter to Ike Bernstein, his
former manager, according to Post
al Inspector Coble. Conviction of
the offense is punishable by a fine
or a prison sentence, or both, Coble
stated.
Schlaifer's attorney, Henry Mon
sky. vouched for the pugilist's re
turn from Minneapolis to Assistant
District Attorney Keyser, yesterday,
before Kinsler interposed his objec
tions. Approval of Schlaifer's bond Tues
day night by United States Commis
sioner Boehler was irregular, but no
objection will be raised to this, Kins
ler stated. -A federal judge must ap
prove a bond on an indictment.
..' ''It's only a spite case," said
Schlaifer.

. Says Farmers Hard Hit
AV H. Shaughnessey . came in
froth , O'Neill with a shipment of
cattle .and said the farmers were in
bad shape with the low price of corn
and every field yielding big.
'"Why,"-"said Mr. Shaughnessey,
"I know of a farmer in my. neighbor
hood who hauled, a load of. corn to
O'Neill. He-had to haul it seven
miles. When he managed to trade
it to a grocer, after trying to sell
it to the elevator, , he got a pair of
overalls, $ 1 ' worth of sugar and
enough for . a . littlgUobacco.
"Very, little convis being burned
and mostjiof the'-'farmers who are
able are; 'cribbing heir corn, which
it is said an be kept'for five years,
w;ith the? hope of the market going
up;" . V-'' : ' - '

.time in j. the early 90s" when hogs
were selling on the fOmaha. market
at $2.95a hundred and now they are
kicking' for fear the miyrket will drop
to $5 a hundred.
"Those ..were, hard times," said Mr.
Spath, "and , many farmers were
worrying about "getting enough to
feed their families, but they weath
ered the s,torm and some of them
now are well off."
So distinctive and so varied are the di- -"ferent
."models of finer coats that they
maxwell be considered a mostunusuali

from .which exceptionally personal and
decidedly becoming garments may ; be

The Store of Specialty Shops;
ightSix Sedan
Built complete in Studebaker factories and with Studebaker's 69 years
of experience in fine coach building behind it, the LIGHT-Six Sedan
represents the highest value in enclosed cars ever offered to the public.
A feature of this car that is sure to be appreciated is its unusual free
dom from body noises. Eight rigid upright posts, which run from floor
to roof, insure solidity of construction. Th$ windows are raised or
. lowered on rattle-proof rubber rollers.
These features, coupled with the fact that the 40-H.P. LlGHT-SlX '
motor is freer from vibration than any other light six-cylinder motor
yet produced, are assurances, to the LlGHT-SlX Sedan buyer, of the
full enjoyment of closed car comfort.
Inspection and demonstration, at your convenience.
