MONEY TO MOVE CROPS
Resources of Reserve System Are to

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 5.-Pre-
liminary plans designed to make
available the of the fed
eral reserve system in the annual fall
movement of crops have been worked
out by the federal reserve board.
Writing to the twelve regional banks,
the board points out how members
of the system may help to finance the
crop movement.
The boards action was taken, the
letter says. to forestall any possibility
of congestion OF crops this fall for
lack of financial accommodation to
move them and to avoid a recurrence
of the stTingency which in the past
has marked this movement. Although
the board applies its plan to wheat,
corn and all other cereals, it devotes
most attention to the cotton crop.

BIRDS START SINGING
CROWS FEAR RIFLE, BUT NOT
SHELL BURSTING-SONG
BIRDS THE OPPOSITE.

Berlin. Aug. 5.-(Correspondence
of Associated Press. Experiments
and observations made in between
times at the various battle fronts by
bird lovers have revealed some strik-
ing characteristics of the feathered
broods that have not been frightened
from their accustomed haunts by the
war. Quite as unusual as any other
conclusion is the showing hat crows,
from generations of experience, fear
rifle fire. but not artillery fire, while
song birds, new having known the
fear of the hunter and his rifle. break
into song when the guns are fired.
but are alarmed at the tremendous
explosions of shells.
Even the trained artillery horses
continue to show more fright at shell
explosions than the birds. The crows
for instance. do not even trouble to
take to flight when a shell lands lei
them, but does not explode, and only
rise for an instant when ii does go
off. But when the rifles begin to pop
they put as much distance as possible
between themselves and the trenches.
Many of the soldiers have canaries
I'm their trenches. and have conducted
numerous experiments with them.
Usually the discharge of a rifle is a
signal for them to sing. and even the
sound of breaking glass will bring
the same result. The same is true to
a great extent of the wild song birds
that abound. especially along the
trench front.
The birds. of course. display a
sharpness of vision that even a pow
erful telescope will not equal. and
many times the warning of an attack
has come first of all from the crows
and other birds, rising in alarm at
some movement that the sentries, for
all their watchfulness. had MOI de-
tected.

DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
CEDAR RAPIDS, la, BANK LOOT
ED OF $23, 600 BY LONE
BANDIT.

Cedar Rapids, Ia, Aug. 5.-A lone
bandit held up Lee Perrin. paying
teller in the Cedar Rapids National
bank. at 7 a. m. today. forcing him to
open the steel doors leading to the
money vault and escaped with $685.
500 in currency. Perrin was found
locked in the vault by other bank en-
ployes a few minutes later and Is now
in a local hospital in a ~hysterical con-
dition.
Perrin arrived at the bank early to
ship currency to country banks and
after he had unlocked the vault doors
was confronted by a man with a re-
volyer. He was ordered to unlock the
steel gate leading to the money safe
and forced TO open the combination
lock to the currency vault.
The robber had specially construct
ed pockets in his coat in which he
stuffed the packages of currency.
Then locking the steel gate he ran
out of the side door of the building
and disappeared.
The superstition Is that he hid in
the bank, which is being remodeled,
yesterday. Two packages containing
$1.e0O each were found outside the
vault where the robber had dropped
them in his haste. Perrin collapsed
soon after he was found. e
Perrin, the paying teller of the
bank, was taken to a local hospital
temporarily insane from the shock.
according to physicians who exam
ined him. No trace of the bandit
had been discovered at 10 o'clock.
