wilson PLANS TO
GVE FARM HOMES
TO new ARRIVALS
Secretary of Labor Has $10,-
100000 Which He Would
Use to Relieve Conges-
ton In Great Cities.
TO ASK AID OF CONGRESS
Would Have Government Pro-
vide Land and Money For I'm
migrants to Get Start
In New World.
TO ASK AID OF CONGRESS

Washington. March 23.-Secretary O.
Labor W. b. Wilson publicly proposed
here the other day a method of en-
ploying profltably the $40, 900, 900 sur
plus from the immigration head tax,
which is piling up in his department
and which is being used for various pur-
poses. The secretary's proposition Is
to employ this money in a scheme Of
relieving congestion of population in
the big cities by transporting new ar
rivals at government expense to gov
lands, which they would be
taught to develop under government
supervision.
All that is necessary to set this
scheme into operation is the permits
sion OF congress to use this money
for this purpose. 1t is believed by
those who have looked into the ques-
ton that by Of cooperation be-
tween various government bureaus, the
object desired could be attained with
very little eApense 1t is also pointed
out that the head tax on immigrants
was lever intended to be q source of
revenue, and that justice would, there
fore. require 1t to be spent in UGH
fashion as to benefit those who paid it
into the federal treasury.
How Plan Would Work.
r. The s~ecretary's plan, which a not
yet reached the stage of formal pre-
s~entation TO the public, presuppOses n
farm credit bureau which will lend
money to the individual farmers. Aside
from this, however, existing govern
mental services stand ready to be
coupled up to carry out the secretary's
scheme. The newly arrived immigrant
would be met at Ellis Island with the
suggestion that he keep away from in
dustrial centers and go straight out to
farming land.
THE government will furnish you
land" the inspector would tell him;
the farm credit system will furnish
you capital, the division of farm man
Rgement of the department of agricul-
u will tell you how to farm, and the
marketing division will tell you how
TO sell your products. The parcel post
will solve your transportation ques~
ion"
Assistant Secretary of Labor Louis
f. Post is much interested in this
scheme and has frequently outlined
I in his public lectures and addresses.
t is probable that formal recommen-
iations along this line will be made
o the Sixty-fourth congress.

WHEAT SHORTAGE IN
AMERICA PREDICTED
Government Issues Warning
Against Continuance of
Enormous Exports.

Washington. March 23.- Warning
that the present heavy exports to
European nations of American wheat
and flour cannot be continued without
endangering the wheat supplies for
food and seeding requirements at home,
was contained today in the department
Of agriculture's agricultural outlook.
In the opinion of the departments ex-
perts, expectation ct the same rate as
during December, January and Feb
ruary until thu coming of the new
wheat crop, would enCroach upon nor
nal domestic needs.
Investigation has disclosed that there
was on March /, an apparent surplus
OF 81, 000, 900 bushels OF wheat over the
domestic requirements for food and
seed that was available for export in
the four months from March l to
July !. While the exports Of wheat, in
Guiding flour, during those o months
last year, were SO. 900, 900 bushels. it is
pointed out that those exports during
December, January and February last
averaged almost 35, 1000, 900 bushels per
month, and if hat rate Of export con-
tinued until the new crop is available,
1t would amount to 100000 900 bushels.

SEVERE FIGHTING REPORTED
ON THE WESTERN FRONTIER

Paris, (via London), March 22.-The
official statement given out today by
the French war departments says:
ITO the north Of Arras, at Notre
Dame De Lorette, a German counter
attack IN Saturday evening deprived
us Of some sections of trenches. We
~recaptured them yesterday.
"At La Boisselle, northeast OF Albert,
mine warfare continues. After having
blown of the enemy's galleries, we
occupied the greater part OF the pit
formed.
During Sunday Rheims received
about so shells. In the Argonne we in
ficted two serious reverses on the
enemy. Near Bagatelle we blew up
three mines and two companies of our
troops stOrmed a German trench in
which they maintained their honors
despite strong counter attacks. Five
hundred yards from there the enemy,
after exploding two mines and bonn
harding our trenches, rushed to attack
on a front Of about $50 yards. After
some very hot hand to hand lighting,
our assailants were hurled back, de-
spite the arrival of their reinforce
ments. Our artillery caught them I'M
der it's fire, as they were falling back,
and inflicted very heavy losses on
them"

RAIL TRAFFIC IS
STOPPED BY ITALY
Stop All Freight Going to Ger
many-War Not Declared,
But Crisis Is Thought
to Be Near.

London, March 22.-The Central
News states that the Italian govern
ment today stopped all railway freight
traffic with Germany by way of Swift
erland.
Although there are rumors afioat to-
day that Italy has declared war, they
lack confirmation. 1t Is certain, how
ever, that the relations of Italy and
Austria are strained. A dispatch from
Rome says hat German and Austrian
subjects have beer advised by their
~consuls to leave Italy at once. Ger
mans arriving in Italy are closely
watched.
For several days there have been
reports that Prince Won BueloW had
failed in his efforts to induce Austria
to grant the territorial concessions
sought by Italy. Saturday it was re-
ported that Austria had agreed to
grant the concessions. but tina there
was a difference between them as to
when the transfer of territory should
be made.
Austria is STRENGTHENING her de-
lenses along the Italian frontier. Ital-
ian officers Of the first reserve have
been ordered to report for duty and
identification tags have been issued to
the troops.
