FORMAL INQUIRY OF
THE LUSITANIA CASE

LONDON, June 15.-At the open
ing of the formal inquiry of the Lus-
itania controversy, Sir Edward Car
son, representing the board of trade,
declared he would prove the Ameri-
can contention that the ship WAS un-
armed. That it was not an auxiliary
cruiser, nor did it carry troops.
He called the German submariners,
"murderers who violated every law of
humanity" He will demand why the
Lusitania was only making 18 knots,
and why but 10 out Of 25 of its boil
ers were working. He said he be-
litred two possibly three, torpedoes,
struck the ship.
Technical testimony will be given
to show that torpedoes and not an
internal explosion sank the ship.
Captain Turner, under oath, denied
that he carried guns.

The DEMAND FOR
HARVEST HANDS

The state Of Kansas is once more
sending out the Macedonian cry for
rep in the harvest fields. 1t is es-
timated that fully $4,000 hands will
Do needed in various sections of the
state to handle the crop. according
70 the present outlook. While the to-
tal acreage is slightly less than in
iSl4, growing conditions are general.
~ as favorable as they were at this
time last year. Barring adverse con-
ditions between now and harvest,
the estimate that $4,000 men will be
needed is conservative.
The state free employment bureau
mas just received complete reports
from its correspondents in the wheat
belt, and with few exceptions, con-
dltions are reported to be as good as
in 1914. There is no lack Of mois-
ture anywhere, and while there are
reports of Hessian fly in few local
it'es, Kansas wheat generally is un-
damaged by insect pests.
Conditions now Indicate that har-
vest may be a few days later than
last year, but it is too early to accur-
ately state when cutting will begin
in any given locality, beyond stating
that harvest will be general in the
state by June 20. Harvest wages
will range upwards from 90 q day
and board.
Last year Kansas raised 1853, ,OO0, 900
bushels of wheat, and she starts out
this year with every prospect favor
able for as large crop. If the other
states of this country do as well in
proportion--and there is no reason
up to the present writing for believ-
ing otherwise-the United States
ought to receive large sum of mon
ey for its cereal crops of 1916. The
crop is bound to be short in the Euro.
pean countries because Of the war,
and this will place an additional de-
mand upon the crop from this coun-
try. Prices of wheat should there
fore be as good or better than they
have been this year.-Colorado
