HIE bCC: UMAHA. TULSUAY. JUNE 13. 1922. Burton F. Hales Revealed Backer of Grain Growers Admits He's Chicago , Capital, let Named at Washington Hearing Identification Createi Sensation Chicago, Jun U-(By A. P.) The Chicago capitalist who was said by James K. Mason oi Milton, Ind., in testimony belore th special senate committee investigating the United Mates Grain Grower. Inc., to be willing to spend $1,000,000 in promot ing sales department (or the grain rower, ii Burton P. llalei. a wealth member oi the board of trade. Mr. Hate readily admitted to an Associated . Pren repreientative to day that he wss the man referred to by Mr. Mason, who in giving hit tettimony Saturday at Washington refused to identity the prospective benefactor of the subsidiary planned to tell the gram contracted oy tne United States Grain Growers, Inc. Mr. Hales said his nephew, G. W. ' Hales, would ait him in any fi nancial aid given the sales plan. Createi Sensation. Mr. Mason's tettimony that a board of trade man was willing to help finance the co-operative organi zation which is looked upon by big traders as inimical to their interests created a sensation in financial cir cles here, but the identification of Mr. Hales created even greater sur prise, for the guesses as to the iden tity fit the man had not included Mr. Hales. Mr. Hates said that the subject of a sates department for the grain growers still was pending and that he did not know, just what would come of his offer. He would not go into details as to his reasons for be. ing willing to back the proposition. Mr. Hales is extremely active de spite his 60 years and is known around the financial district as a fighter. Broker in Many Lines. He fully confirmed all of Mr. Mason's testimony concerning the plan, saying that he had agreed to advance $50,000 whenever it was wanted as a starter, Mr. Hales said he did not remember just how he became interested in the idea, add ing that he "presumed some one ap pioached me on it as a good busi ness proposition and 1 took it up." Mr. Hales is a broker in many lines, but chiefly in grain, his firm owning many, elevators. He said hi& nephew, G. W. Hales, also had become interested in the' grain grow ers' proposed sales department, pri marily from an investment stand point. ' . , No application for a membership on the grain exchange in the in terest of the United States Oram Growers', Inc., has been made to the directors of the board of trade by Mr. Hale or "any other person," John R. :, MaufF, secretary of the board, 'said today. - Disagreement between the 'Board of Trade and the United States Grain Growers, Inc., over the terms of veloped into a struggle involving the agricultural bloc in congress and the United States supreme court, center ing recently around the supreme court decision holding unenforceable several sections of the futures trad ing act, known as the Capper-Tincher law. The board has contended that co operative organizations seeking seats on the board were unwilling to com ply with the rules of the exchange, chiefly the provisions against rebat ing 'of commissions. ; Discussion Lively. . Announcement of specific plans for the purchase of a seat by the grain growers has precipitated lively dis cussion in grain circles - as to the board's probable action on such, an application. :;. Contracts for handling approxi mately 10,000,000 bushels of wheat have been made, it is said, through the grain growers' proposed selling organization. i Mr. Mason's announcement Satur day was pronounced immature at the organization's headquarters today, where, it was said conferences had been in progress for ''some time on the selling organization with various people interested in grain trade. ' It is understood the grain growers will attempt to handle at least a part of this season's crop for their members if they secure a seat on the exchange. Mr. Hales" firm controls elevator capacity totaling 3,000,000 bushels at Chicago and 1,000,000 bushels at Minneapolis, it is stated, making the - combination- one of the largest on the board if present plans are per fected. .

Arthur Atack Urges in Brief Discourse Sacred Songs Sung by Choir of Hanscom Park M. . Church. The first religious program of The Bee's radio series was transmitted last night from the Omaha Grain exchange station, WAAW, to thou sands who listened in. The program was presented by Rev. Atrhur Atack, paitor of Hans sora Park Methodist Episcopal church, and the choir, led by Walter B. Graham. One of the features of the event was the ability of the con gregation at the church to hear the radio service through a powerful re reiving set installed by the Nebras ka Power company. After the min uter had delivered his message at the radio station he proceeded to the church and heard part of the radio musical program before he com menced his Sunday night sermon.. The opening number of the radio program was an anthem, "Fear Not, O Israel," with solos by Miss Mar guerite Brown, Miss Gertrude Smith, Harry Hansen and Vernon Osborne. Rev. Mr. Atack then gave a brief discourse on "Tuning in With God." "Sweeten Family Life." ' "Tune in with God," said the minister, "if you would live a life of service, the life worth while. Tune in with God in the time of your fail ures and all the normal activities of life. Tune in with God and our fam ily life will be sweeter. Tune in with God and our political life will have less greed and more service, and our community life will have more solidarity." Tbe speaker turned radio expres sions to religious account. He as serted that the waves of God's love are so all-pervading that none need go unblessed. He said there are in terferences in the Christian life as there are static interferences in radio transmission. Minister Thanks Bee. During the regular church service Rev. Mr. Atack thanked The Bee for having made it possible for the congregation to hear the first part of thes ermon and four musical num bers by radio. . "The words and music were heard distinctly at the church and the con gregation -was pleased. We thank The Bee," the minister said. "The statics of money, selfishness and indifference interfere with many being in tune with God," he said. "You can have good tuning only when you have, good control. We must nave the control of self, the control of prayer and meditation. Washington and Lincoln used the control of prayer and this country is what it is today because its great men knew, the control of prayer." Spoke in Clear Voice. The minister spoke in a clear voice which was heard distinctly at the church and at many other , places where receiving equipment tuned in with the Grain -Exchange station. The choir music went through fine, according to Frank Taylor of the Omaha Grain exchange. At the . conclusion of the minister's radio sermon, the choir sang "In flammatus" (Stabat Matter) with solo by Miss Bess Watson, and an other anthem, "Unfold Ye Portals." with solo by Mrs. Harry Hansen. The closing number of the program was a tenor solo, "The Ninety and Nine," by George Salttgiver. Mayme Vroman accompanied ,the choir on piano. . ' I Dog Hill Paragrafs By George Bingham.

Every night I cry myself to aleep thinking about him. I am a very young girl, but am In love, or have a very good friend who can only take the place of my dear, dear daddy who la gone. The only privilege my -mother has given me la to let me take piano les ions. We have a sedan car, and my slater, who is two years older than I, can have it every time she wanta It, but I cannot have It to take, my friends out riding. She can nave evening engagements, too, while I do only If I return to my previous home. I am popular In school and have many friends.- I ton rather beautiful and I am good In school. I look like Ruth Roland when she haa her curls and bangs out.. I have an aunt who Is very, very good to me. 8he la married, but haa no Children, and she and her hus band both love , children, and they have often tried to get me to come and live with them, but since my dear . father died mother thlnka I should stay with her, and before I didn't because I couldn't stay away from my father. This aunt la also wealthy and I could- have everything I wanted. - My nickname Is "Sun shine," because auntie told me I was happy all of the time, but none of them knows any ' of my sorrows ex cept you, dear Mias Fairfax. Now, please tell me . what I - should do. Should I stay at home or aro where I could always be happy? I. am a toe dancer and am movie craxy. i am a Camp Fire Girl and love all kinds of outdoor and Indoor sports, and I etlll love my dolls. , DOLLY. It la hard to lose any one dear to us, and your grief is . only natural, but you are making a great mistake In feeling sorry for yourself. One of the best ways of being happy in this life Is never to let self-pity over come you. I think you should stay with your mother by all means. It is natural that an 'older sister could have the use of the car and have evening engagements. ' When you are as old as she la your mother will probably allow you to. She knows what is best for you, and the fact that she wanta to nave you with her, and lets you study music, and takes good care of you, shows that she cares a great deal for you. Perhaps yotf could arrange to visit your aunt and uncle during summer vacation, but It sounds to me as if you would be a sadly spoiled little girl if you went to live with them. Having one's own way and everything one wants is no way to build up char acter or to gain permanent happi ness. I am afraid, too. that you have a pretty good opinion of your self, and conceit usually leads a per son to a fall sooner' or later. . Forget about your curls and Ruth Roland, my dear, and the friend you think you are in love with, and devote yourself to your music and your dancing, and your camp Fire Ulria. I am alad ou like your dolls and all sorts of sports, stick to them By your own admission you are at tractive, popular ana sret aiong weu in school. , Tou have plenty of thinga which interest you. - to my mina, you are quite a fortunate young per son and have no call whatever to nurse secret sorrows. , .. Dr. Houlton Goes to Boston to Take Position in Hospital Dr. Thomas Houlton, son ,of Michael Houlton, 1808 Burt street, left last night for Boston where he will specialize in nervous and mental diseases at the Boston Psychopathic hospital. Dr. Houlton graduated from Creighton medical college in 1920 and has been head of the clinics there, as well as professor oftnatomy and physiology at Creighton dental college. - He is secretary, of the Creighton medical alumni associa tion. . : .

My Marriage Problems Adsle Carriaon'a New Phase of "REVELATIONS OP A .WIFE" iCetrriflht Ifll) Has Madge Made the Correct Ouess? I cannot imagine the peril which would cause either Lillian or Allen Drake to betray astonishment, bat there was no menace in Katie's be ing apprised of their amazement at her ststement, and both permitted themselves audible expressions of mirthful wonder. "Weill I'll le translate I" Allen Drake drawled with a chuckle. "What I" Lillisn exclaimed sharp ly, as if she had not heard the girl aright "What kind of paper did you give him?" "A paper vot look awful mooch same as de vun I took," Katie re joined, evidently forgetting her terror of my father in the dramatic Joy of her recital. "I saw me vun, two several times in movies, papers mit all sorts of -letters und figures mixed oop und little drawings, so I feex me paper mit letters shoost as many as do vun Meester Spen cer had, only different letters,, und shoost as many figures, only differ ent ones, und I copy dose drawings, only, I make some lines all crooked tike.

"Our Mutual Friend," she quoted significantly. ' "No doubt," my father returned, his eves never leaving- Katie's face. "Then you mean to tell me, Katie, that you still have the-original paper you took. I guessed that tie naa suoDressed a harsher word. ' ''No. I no have eet," Katie re turned slowly, and pausing drama tically. "But I can get eet in two tree shakes of a lamb s tail. "Katie."

"Honestly,! won't offend again, but you'll have to admit this is about the richest ioke on all of us." . "Oh, granted!" she retorted, look ing expectantly at my lather, wno had listened- to the little colloquy with tolerant amusement. "I think we should all like to" see the paper Katie," he said kindly, "so if -you-.will. get it Katie looked embarrassed for the first time.

Common Sense Are You a Spreader of wood Words) What do the men who work with you, and about you, think of you? Do they have reason to consider you square, or have you given them reason to believe that you cannot be relied upon? Is your general conduct such thst your fellow workers could say with nonestv that you would be good around any establishment? Are you setting an example of honesty and integrity toward your employers, or are you constantly bark-biting them? Do you repeat alt the disagreesble things you hear sbout your fellow workmen? Do you ever tell a bunch of good reports to your work-a-day com panions or to any other associates? It is just as easy to pass around the favorable reports. It is more unusual to hear a lot of good reports. Why not put yourself into the un ususl dais by. looking for all the good things you can hear and then repeating them where you know they will do the most good? Do not make up stories for thi sake of bring a cheer conveyor, But when you hear a compli mentary word about another, past it along. $200,000 Bond Issue for Gty Auditorium The municipal auditorium will b improved if the voters approve a bom proposition which will be submitte at the primary election on July 18.
