Will LOOK into IT
Congressman DOOlittle After
Probe of Grain Dealers.
Inspectors Will Be Sent to
Kansas at Once.

Washington. July ADMINISTRATION of
an alleged conspiracy among dealers
and exporters of wheat at Kansas City,
Mo-, to depress prices to farmers was
provided in resolution by Representa-
tive Doolittle of Kansas, favorably re-
ported today by the interstate COM
merce committee.
Secretary Redfield, Of the department
of commerce, assured Mr.. Doolittle he
would at once send two inspectors to
Kansas to investigate and report.
Mr.. Doolittle told the house that for
a SOO0O,000 bushel wheat crop pro-
ducers were getting 63 cents at loading
elevators in Kansas. while large quanti-
ties were being sold for export at Kan
sas City, Mo-, as high as So cents.
Charges Are Denied.
Kansas City, July 22.-Questioned
regarding the resolution sponsored by
Representative Doolittle of Kansas,
an alleged conspiracy among dealers
and exporters of wheat here to de-
press prices to farmers, A. L. Ernst,
president of the Kansas City board or
trade. and other local grain dealers
today denied the charges in the reso-
luton, and asserted that competition
on the local market this season is the
keenest ever experienced.
Kansas City pays the highest price
OF any market in the country for
grain,' said r1r. Ernst. kansas City
could not control wheat prices if it
would. All the milling and export
centers in the country are bidding for
the big Kansas wheat crop. especially
the high grades. So far Kansas
City-considering the cost of trans
portation-has paid the highest prices
on the average of any Of these mar
kets.
''The price Of 6S cents given to the
farmers at loading elevators in Kansas
mentioned by Mr.. Doolittle, was the low
market price. This has increased since
his investigation. Further the IS cent
price, mentioned by him was not the price
of the wheat here, but the price delivered
at q seaport town ready for export :" : T

by the state tax commission. While
no official figures will be compiled for
several days, it is generally admitted
that Kansas property valuations are
below those of a year ago and that
the shortage will probably reach so
million dollars.
None of the members Of the state
tax commission are at this time dis
posed to discuss the probable finan-
cial showing in the valuation returns.
They are saving their opinions until
few totals can be gathered and the
reports from all of the los counties
tabulated.s Yet it is not denied that
valuations and conservative estimates
have estimated so million dollars as
the slump over last year.
OFF Crop Year.
One important reason for the short
age in property valuations. is the off
crop year of 1918. AS result Of a
near crop failure in Kansas. millions
of dollars were lost to Kansas farmers
and hundreds of thousands OF dollars
Of the funls of the state banks were
! loaned for the purchase OF feed All
of this money went out Of the state
and has not returned. Another reason
for the drop in valuations is the fact
| that the short crops forced many
/ farmers to sell their stock which
would have been fed and wintered in
| the state.
This year the assessors not only as
sessed personal property, but real
estate as well. 1t is believed that the
real estate will show an increase over
/ the valuations reported two years ago.
But this gain will by no means be
| sufficient to cover the loss in personal
property.
Based ON 1912 Returns.
| Real estate valuations were not
taken by the assessors in 1913 and the
assessment on tbs property was based
/ on the returns OF 1912.
/ Last year the state gained about "a
million dollars in its property valua-
!! tions over the showing of 1912. The
/ gain was entirely on personal property.
as no new figures were given ON real
! estate. This year the big slump will
come In personal property. with prob
! able slight gain in real estate values.
The figures reported by the state tax
4 commission in 1913 showed in round
! sums, $780, 0O0. 900 worth of taxable
| property in Kansas.

appealed to President Wilson today to
have the United States use its influence
with General Carranza, to obtain a
general amnesty for those who sup
ported the Huerta government. 1t was
the first formal call Of the three media
tors since the conference at Niagara
Falls adjourned. They were accom-
panied by Secretary Bryan, and for
nearly an hour discussed the Mexican
situation in all of its phases. They
expressed the view that Francisco Car
bajal, provisional president of Mexico,
who succeeded Huerta, was ready to
turn over the government to General
Carranza, but wanted guarantees that
there would be no wholesale Executions.
arrests or confiscation of property
They told President Wilson that
Carbatal could not surrender uncondi-
tionally, and that unless these guaran-
property of those who supported
Huerta were given, the Carbajal gov
ernment would concentrate all it's mil
itary forces and resist until the ut
most any effort to invade Mexico City.
The president and Mr.. Bryan listened
attentively to the views OF the South
American diplomats and especially as
probably would be unable to recog-
nize any administration in Mexico
which refused to give quarter to its
enemy or establish itself by peaceful
means in accol -ance with civilized
practice among nations.
They pointed out also the dangers OF
an armed eutry of the constitutional
lists into Mexico City and urged that
the United States use every influence
to bring about a peaceful transfer OF
power. After their talk with the
president, Secretary Bryan and the
-
ment of state for conference. That
the influence Of the United States waf

explained also today by Jose Castellot

Mr.. Castellot was confident that ths
American government never would per-
NIT an arbitrary entry into Mexico City
by the constitutfonalists.

Bathing Suits VS.. Nude Art

bathing suits or lifted skirts at

tive than nude art in the Boston

scum makes it improper for school
children to go there, he declares:
THE purest men in the world have
given US paintings and statues en-
tirely nude, and find the purest
men and women in the world ap-
prove them. 1 think bathing suits
are far more suggestive or q lifted
