Haze Agreed on
The Emergency
Shipping Bill
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Washington, Aug. 13.-House and
senate conferees on the emergency
shipping bill today reached a com
plete agreement recommending to con-
gress that foreign built vessels regis
tered under the act be permitted to
engage in the COastwisc trade within
two years from its passage.
The bill a now agreed upon would
admit to American registry all for
eiGn built ships owned by American
citizens or corporations regardless Of
the age of the ships The Cummins
amendment requiring Americans to
own q ma iOrity Of tho 81, * of the
corporation was stricken out.
Provisions empuN n -.e presi-
dent 20 suspend eQuirementS for in
spection and exclusive American off
GERS aud crews were retained in the
bill, but the provision for repair of
foreign built ships in navy yards and
for retired naval officers to be en-
ployei was stricken out.
A new amendment providing that
foreign built vessels may engage in
the coast wise trade if registered pur-
suant to the provisions of this act
within two years from its Passage.
was substituted for a senate amend
ment which would have permitted for
eign- built ships to engage in trade
between the Atlantic and Pacific coast
ports, from the Gulf to the Atlantic
and Pacific and from the Great Lakes
TO ocean and gulf ports.
Senator Perkins refused to sign the
conference report. III never consent
to such a blow TO coastwise trade"
he said.
THE FIRST STEPS.
Nashin gton. Aug. 15.-Senate and
house conferees had before them today
for final action their report on the
bill to admit = American registry
foreign built ships not over five years
old The Ccnferees had agreed upon
proposal to open American coast
wise trade to foreign built vessels adj
next two years under the pending Pam
anna canal act amendment.
The amen .inent i passed the
house was designated an emergency
measure to relieve the congestion Of
over seas commerce owing to the with
drawal of the great fleets of the ma
tons involved in the European war.
The senate amended the bill so as 20
admit foreign built ships to the trade
the United States and on the gulf and
Great Lakes and out Of his proposal
grew the agreement.
The conference report was to be
presented 10 both houses today and
indications were that It would precip-
itete lively debate, particularly the
proposal to open coastwise trade to
vigorously opposed by shipping and
shipbuilding interests.
A formal declaration by Solicitor
johnson, of the state department is
believed to have removed any doubt
over the question as to the right to
change the register of a ship owned
by a beligerent in time Of war.

SOW WHEAT LATE, ESCAPE FLIES
Bulletin by Prof. Haseman Reprinted
by Chicago Company.

A recent press bulletin of the Mis-
souri, Agricultural Experiment Station
has been reprinted by the Armour
Fertilizer Works of Chicago and dis
tributed to all their patrons in Mis-
souri,, Illinois, Iowa and Kansas.
The bulletin was written by Prof.
Leonard Haseman. 1t advises the
farmers to escape the Hessian fly by
sowing wheat late. "The majority of
the Hessian flies are still in the rest
ing or fax seed stage in the wheat
stubble which has not been destroyed
by plowing under or burning" said
Mr.. Haseman. From this stubble the
winged fly soon come out to deposit
eggs on volunteer or early sown
wheat. Where the stubble has all been
plowed under and the ground thor
oughly worked over in an entire COM
there should be less danger
from the fly but the wheat should be
sown late even where such precau-
tions have been taken"

AMENDMENT NO. z.

Cornelius Roach, Secretary of State
of Missouri, has indorsed proposed
amendment No. z, which permits the
Legislature to pension the deserving
blind. eI3
This is an amendment which each
voter should support on election day.
If passed, it will help in the direction
of affording an equal opportunity to
each of our blind. 1t will remove the
necessity of begging on street corners
and will not greatly increase the
amounts now spent by the state in
caring for the blind. 1t will enable
the blind to live without the humilia-
tion of being beggars.

AN OBSTACLE TO PEACE.

From Paris comes the word that the
opportune moment for peace negotia-
tions is not in sight The Journal des
Debats says:
The articles of treaties, written
prohibitions and restrictions will not
suffice. All these the imperial chan
cellor, DIR. Won Bethmann-Hollweg,
has declared to be merely scraps of
paper"
There it is-"merely scraps of pa
per-" That phase, spoken at white
heat, stings and taunts the French
and English. They cry out for "the
destruction of German territory, or
ganizations and instruments of war"
Except for those words spoken by an
angry statesman, the nations proba-
conference Those few words have
done more than anything else to de-
feat all President Woodrow Wilson's
efforts for peace.
Fortunate is the man who, when
his anger rises, can keep his tongue
quiet; who does not say or do things,
Insignificant as they may seem, which
will taunt and cut the men he faces
long after the incident itself is closed.
Those few words may be the death
sentence of Germany.

The South still calls for help with
its cotton crop which the closing OF
foreign mills that manufacture the
raw product into cloth destroyed the
market for. Fifty dollars buys a
bale. 1t has been suggested that one
way to get rid of it would be for the
American people to declare cotton
garments the style. We may come to
cotton clothing before the war is end
ed, anyway. So why not follow the
suggestion and let American manu-
facturers use it now when the South
ern planters needs the help so bad
ly?

VANDALISM YET LIVES.

An indignant cry goes up from
France because of the destruction of
the famous old Cathedral of Rheims,
and it is a cry the whole world may
justly echo.
1t was to have been hoped that the
modern world had in realizing its loss
through the destruction of art treas
ures and buildings in the wars of the
past learned lesson, and that this
war would see the preservation of
historic structures to the future. But
evidently that is too much to expect.
Sunday the report came that the
Germans in their bombardment of
Rheims were to all intent keeping
their fire purposely turned away from
the cathedral. Yesterday the news
was sent that "the Germans havc
aroused themselves to a condition of
such fury that without military rea-
son they have fired on the Cathedral
of Rheims, which is in flames" Ger
man officials say it was done against
orders, which if true shows that even
in the modern supposedly best dis
ciplined army vandalism cannot be
stopped.
This last act only adds to a growing

Mrs. William Jarrett

Mrs. William Jarrett, of Little
Rock, Ark, is in the city on a visit
TO her nephew, Mr.. A. w. Walkley,
and family. Mrs. Jarrett was much
impressed by the kindness and cour-
tesy with which she was treated on
her arrival here by the Coast Line
men. Arriving on one of the night
trains, in the rush and confusion
caused by the reunion, on trying to
leave the sleeper, she found the
front door locked, and had to go to
the rear end of the car. This delay
caused her to miss Mr.. T. T. Munroe,
who was looking for her, and not
seeing her alight from the sleeper,
supposed she had been delayed But
the boys took charge of her, and
as soon as the train left telephoned
and hunted all over town till they
put her in communication with
friends. This sort of business is not
as prevalent on the roads as it
should be, but it is characteristic of
our local railroad men.
