WILL BE CLEARING HOUSE
object of the. scheme il 90 Have Pro-
ducers Cooperate and Know
Just where 60 send
Their Crops.

The formation Of n system of county
or district clearing houses for crop con-
ditlons IN America is contemplated by
national farmers organization that Is to
be perfected in Omaha at a convention
December 10 II and Y. The organization
was temporarily organized In Kansas
City in August IL IL known as the
American Farmers federation.
The plan contemplates a national
bureau, or clearing mouse, 10 which ali
the local or district clearing houses
would report regularly on crop conditions
in the locality. This it Is expected would
facilitate the matter Of marketing to
great extent. A typical example of the
working Of the system could be drawn
| from the situation In which one locality
might have a great crop OF highly perish
able fruit. The man owning the fruit
farm would report the approximate date
OF ripening to his local bureau, or clear
| ing house The local manager would re-
port It TO the national clearing house.
The national clearing house would likely
have on file a record OF the market con-
ditlons all over the COUNTRY, with es-
pecial notes on certain localities where
just SUCH fruit might be marketable al
the particular time. II would be the
business OF these bureaus to get the pro-
Queer and the buyer together at such
time, and thus aid materially in finding
markets for products throughout the
country.

board I'm favor OF resembling the rule.
The board has changed the word
Ing OF the rule, which Is rule No. s,
to make II more definite. The new
rule reads:
"No teacher shall be permitted to
be attired In the distinctive garb of
any religious organization or order
during the time such person Is en-.
gagged In the work OF teaching I'm
the public schools of the state"
Letter to Archbishop.
The boards judgment concerning
the whole subject" says Mr.. Schulz
letter to Archbishop ireland, lis
that II cannot recede from its orig.
inal position, but feels its duty re.
quires that it's attitude as expressed
at first remain fixed, unless the leg.
islature or courts determine that
there shall be a different policy.
81 wish to convey to you the SEN
timent of each member of the board
that We all deeply appreciate your
frank. sincere and earnest attitude in
presenting the other side of the ques.
ton. The board has been actuated
by no narrow policy of seeking to
hamper or restrain those who offer
their services in the public schools,
but who by reason of custom or fixed
principle become excluded from pub
lie school teaching. The boards
judgment is that a violation of the
lation OF the established public school
policy. The board desires me to con-
vey to you and through you to the
large body Of our citizens in the state
for whom you are privileged to
speak, its sincere desire to maintain
the mutual confidence and feeling of
respect which has existed between
the secular and religious bodies in
the maintenance OF school work"
Modified One Rule.
. The board announces a modifca.
ton OF it's rule No. Z. to which Arch.
bishop Ireland also made an objec-
ton because II prevented Catholic
sisters from assigning their salary
to their order. The modified rule
says:
mo public school funds shall be
paid for instruction except to indiv-
iduals who actually render the teach
ing service, or upon their order"
Rule No. Is abolished by the
boards action today. This is a rule
forbidding the schools being used at
any time except for school purposes.
In many country districts 1t is de-
sired to use school houses for re-
ligious services sometimes in even

WAR TAX PROBABLE.

Majority Leader Underwood, au.
thor of the new tariff law, says that
no definite plans have been consid-

tive circles is that a stamp tax will
be imposed as in the Spanish-Amer.

revenue raising purposes.

Underwood called attention TO the
old law permitting the sale of Pana.
ma canal bonds. but the democratic
party is against bond issues when
they can be avoided. and although
about s25O,O0O.OOO of such bonds
might be sold. It is understood a
war tax is preferred by the demo.
cratic leaders. Rough estimates are
that the European war will reduce
import revenues about one.third.

POSSESSIONS SCATTERED.

Four out of six powers OF Europe
which today are engaged In war
fare have colonial possessions, pro-
teCtorates, and dependencies scat
tered all over the world. Austria.
hungary and Russia have no colonial
possessions, though the Russian en-
pire stretches through the continents
of Europe and Asia and presents
a long coast line on the Northern
Pacific. or the others, Great Bri-
tain has colonies and protectorates
the world over: France has colonies
and protectorates in Africa, India,
China, South America, in the West
indies. in the north Atlantic. and in
the Pacific and Indian oceans; Ger
many has colonial possessions In
Africa, in China, and in the Pacific
ocean. and Italy has dependencies
in Africa and a concession in China.
EnGlands vast empires, India, Can
ada. and Australia; her holdings
on the Malay Peninsula; her colon
les in Africa. and her fortified posi-
tions in the Mediterranean, Gibral-
tar and Malta, put her at the head
OF the colony-holding nations of the
world: they also increase the field
OF her protective operations in case
she becomes involved in war with
Austria Hungary and Germany. and
possibly with Italy. Many OF the
minor holdings of the four powers
with colonial possessions to defend
are themselves without military
strength. In many cases the pro-
rcCting power has only very small
garrisons on shore. amounting to
nothing more than local police for
ccs. This is particularly true in
Africa. outside of the French and
and in American waters. The con-
