Million Bushels OF
Argentine Corn Sold -
In Peoria, Illinois

f1ux of the same product when the
war ceases.
The Underwood tariff law calmly
places corn on the free list. Just as
President Wilson, with literary en-
phasis, proposed that American busi-
ness men shall compete with their
wits with the rest of the world, so
American farmers are told they can
compete in the same manner. Just
as industrial conditions in America
are different from those of Europe
and the Orient, so farming conditions
are different in the Argentine. In
stead of the small farm there are
large estates operated with cheap la
Dor imported from Southern Europe.
American farmers cannot compete
with these conditions. This new
situation is recognized in the South.
Municipal docks are being prepared
in New Orleans to handle this i'm
mense traffic. Elevators with capa-
city of 10000 bushels a day are al
ready constructed, and it is an
nounced that the city of New Orleans
is prepared to build additional eleva-
tors If they are required.
Invasion a Fact.
The invasion of Argentine corn is
an accomplished fact, and the raiser
of American corn, and the grower of
American wheat must make up their
minds to face this competition when
the war closes without the aid of any
protection in the way of tariff du-
ties. This invasion by Argentine
corn is not the only evidence that
America is wholly unprotected
against the war that will come after
the war. Europe and Asia are pre-
pairing for this struggle. Economical
alliances will follow the alliances for
war. Tariff unions and customs re-
prisals will be adopted. The govern
ments of Europe and that of Japan
will use their power over natural re-
sources, industrial capacity, financial
ability, merchandising genius and
shipping tonnage to subdue the neut-
raj markets of the world.
The prosperity that exists in Am
erica today is not entirely due to the
manufacture of munitions. The war
has built an automatic tariff wall
which holds the immense market of
America to a large degree for itself.
When the war closes our foreign
markets will be cut of and our DOM
estic markets will be captured by a
competing world. In the long run it
Is probably more important that the
American people should recover from
the spiritual debauchery of the last
four years and learn once more to
wear their souls on straight, but self
interest necessarily merges into pat
riotism, and self interest prompts a
realization of the disaster that is i'm
pending If the authors of the present
tariff law remain in power.

WALKER WHITESIDE
THE MELTING POT''

Walker Whiteside will be seen to-
night at the Grand theater in "The
Melting Pot" Israel Zangwill's IA
nous drama which enjoyed such a
protracted run in legitimate theaters
a number of years ago. The play re-
wolves around one unfortunate suf-
ferer, a talented young Russian Jew,
who saw his parents killed in mas
sacre and who escaped from the
bloodthirsty mob and came to Am
erica.
In this country he earns a liveli-
hood by playing a violin at a cafe,
where he attracts the attention of
young Russian girl, the daughter
of an official of the czar. On account
of sympathizing with the prosecuted
Jews, she was exiled to America by
her father, and in this country she
busted herself with settlement work.
The young couple are strangely
drawn together by their mutual love
for music, and, despite their differen-
ces in religion, find themselves fall
ing desperate in love with each other.
But objection arises from various
sources to their marriage. The young
mans aunt, with. whom he lives, OBJ
jects to a Gentle entering her home,
while the girls father, who had been
summoned to this country by jeal-
GUS suitor, is equally opposed to q
Jewish sOn-in-laW.
Other complications develop, but
in the end, after both the hero and
heroine suffer tortures of mind and
heart and enjoy the success which
the violinist attains with his own
composition, they find happiness in
each others love. !

Washington, Oct... 27.-Secretary
of War Baker today announced that
he would have another statement to
make later on charge of plot
which: exists to produce an armed
conflict between the United States
and Mexico. Administration officials
say that Bakers statement made last
night was intended as warning to
the Mexican government.
In his statement last night Baker
said that the war department had re-
ceived definite information that the
enemies of the governments policy
toward Mexico, in connection with
Villa or other bandits, had arranged
for spectacular attack on American
troops on the border.
Full particulars of the plans, the
secretary said, had been forwarded to
Generals Funston and Pershing, and
all the American forces are in readi-
ness for the attack.
Mr. Baker issued this statement:
1.-THE war department has received
definite information, confirmed from
other sources, that enemies of the ad-
ministration's policy toward Mexico,
in cooperation with Villa or other
bandits in Mexico, had arranged a
spectacular attack to be made either
upon some part of the Aemican forces
or upon some American community
on the border between now and the
date of the election for the purpose
of turning the tide of sentiment
against the policy which the admin
istration has adopted for the protec-
tion of the border.
1T is significant in this connection
that both the state and war depart
ments were advised that the bandit
forces operating at the present time
in Mexico are being paid in silver
coin.
Generals Warned.
''Full particulars have been trans
mitted to General Funston and Gen
eral Pershing. All American forces
are therefore forewarned and in
readiness for such an attack"
