Dsayoralty election in New York City
and IN the recent primaries in Buffalo,
Dayton and other places. 1t means a
profound and radical dissatisfaction
with some of the war policies of the
present Administration and the sup
preston OF free discussion of such
aims and policies.
He Favors Argument
The platform OF the present Social
st candidate in Wisconsin. in my judg-
nent, cannot be successfully defended
before the American people. Il should
be met. however, ard it's fallacies point
ed out by argument, rather than bv 1T
tempt to suppress it By force. The de-
mand, for example, that American
troops be withdrawn from France. even
in advance of some settlement of the
issues Of the war. is demand impos-
sible to seriously consider.
Although I opposed the declaration
Of war, and would so amend the con-
stitution that war shall never except in
case of invasion be declared without a
referendum vote by the people. never
theless war was declared by Congress
in the manner provided by the Consti-

that we are at least in the war law

Liberty Loan Bill
Is Perfected and
Sent to the House
Leaders Will Urge Passage
To-day So Senate May
Act on Monday

WASHINGTON, March 2o.-The new
Liberty Loan bill authorizing an addi-
tional $4,000, 100000 in bonds, the
issuing up to $4,000, 100000 in Treas
ury certificates and providing for an
additional loan to the Allies of $780,
GOO, 900 was completed tonight by the
House Ways and Means Committee and
introduced in the House by Chairman
kitchin Efforts will be made to pass
the. measure tomorrow so it will be
ready for Senate action Monday.
The bill as drawn by the committee
follows the recommendations of Secre-
tary McAdoo and fixes the interest rate
OF the third Liberty Loan of $1,000
600, 900 TO be offered next month at
IA per cent This issue will not be
convertible. The bonds may be issued
in foreign countries in money denom-
nations of those countries. By this
means the Secretary hopes to stabilize
the American rate of exchange and to
extend the market for the bonds.
In anticipation Of the completion of
the bill by the committee, Secretary
McAdoo appeared before the Senate
Finance Committee to explain the
legislation He said that with the in
terest rate on the third bond issue
increased to 4A per cent and a per
cent redemption fund provided there
would be no difficulty in floating the
issue, despite the fact the bonds would
be non-convertibIe. This feature, he
added, would remove agitation for a
higher interest rate on subsequent
issues.
With the s4,5oo,o 100000 additional
authorized in the bill, the Treasury
would have authority to issue $685.
100000 in bonos, but Secretary Nc
Adoo said, with the third loan sub
scribed, there would be no necessity
for another bond issue before next fall
The $500 100000 for the Allies brings
the total available for them to about
$3.50 1000, 900, as about $4,000, 100000
of the amount previously authorized
has not yet been allotted
Most of the Senate committee mem
bers were said to view the general plan
of the legislation with favor and said
the bill would be passed promptly by
the Senate.

citizen. With less than two weeks
after his nomination petitions were
filed in which to conduct his campaign,
Mr.. Thompson came within about 1000
votes of being nominated. The
showing made by Mr.. Thompson is
most remarkable and can only be ex-

possible.

Open Shop Tangle Also
Adjusted for Duration
of Hostilities

WASHINGTON, March 29.-An agree
ment governing the relations of capital
and labor for the duration of the war.
which Will be made the basis OF ma
tional labor policy. was reached here
to-day by the labor planning board
after sessions lasting more than a
month.
Terms of the agreement Will not be
made public until approved By Secrc-
tary OF Labor Wilson. charged by
President Wilson with the formulation
OF labor administration, but it was
learned tonight that the main purpose
Of the onferences-the adoption Of
plan to prevent strikes-had been
achieved. Labor representatives, il
was said. pledged the members Of
unions engaged in war work not to
strike until after government investi-
cation of differences between the work
ers and their employers.
Proselyting Permitted
This was taken to mean that all dis
putes would be put in the hands of
mediation boards for settlement, an
arrangement long sought by govern
production OF war materials
Two important points on which a
full agreement is understood to have
been reached are the question of the
open or closed shoD and that of re-
strictlon on output. Both sides, it
was said. agreed that there should be
no discrimination either against union
or non-union labor and thai the So
called closed shop should remain
closed and the open shop remain open
until it became impossible to fill shops
with workers without putting un-
organized workers in union shops or
union men in open shops to make up
deficiencies.
The unions. according to the terms of
the agreement, will be permitted to
proselytize and will not be restricted in
organizing labor.
Not to Reduce Wages
In return for assurance on the part
Of labor that no restriction will be put
on the output Of union men, capital has
agreed it is understood. that wages
paid for piecework shall not be re-
duced during the war This arrange
ment was hailed by government off
cials as long step forward, as e. great
amount OF complaints have arisen be-
cause of restrictions unions have put
on the amount OF work that d man
may do.
The labor planning board comprised
twelve members. five named by the
American Federation of Labor and five
by the National Industrial Conference
Board. Each side named two men to
represent the public. Representatives
of capital named former President Taft
and the labor delegates Frank P.

military service and that OF others who
had done their bit and yet paid with
their lives for moment of weakness.
There were, no doubt, other concomi-
tant causes that contributed to weaken
resistance on the Italian front when
the well planned Austro-German often
slve was timely initiated. Thanks to
their superior intelligence services at
the front and their espionage system in
this country the Austro-G Germans knew
where and when to attack with sue
cess. They resorted to propaganda
among the Italian troops holding posi-
tons where no fighting had been going
on for a long time,
1t is known now that after the riots
at Turin most of the munition workers
who were socialists had been sent to
the front and attached to the units
holding these positions. 1t was among
these men that the enemy propaganda
was successful, and the deficient resist
ance, due to weakness or treachery,
that rendered the invasion of Italy pos.
sible originated at a point which could
be easily defended by a handful of
men, as 1t was naturally strong and
formidably fortified because 1t afforded
the shortest way for invasion. Un-
fortunately the men who held this
point gave way.

BIG CROP WORTH
S1O,7OO,OOO,OOO
Estimate Of Department Of Agri-
culture for 1917.
STATE OF ILLINOIS IN LEAD
Farm Value of Nations Production
Two and one-HaIf Times That of
1909-Crops include Cereals, Po-
tatoes, Hay and Cotton Lint.

Thirteen principal farm crops In this
country In 1917 had a value at the
farm Of S10,700,000,000, according to
estimates of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, or nearly two and
one-half times the value for the census
year 1909. This amount is about four
tifthS of the value of all crops. These
crops include seven cereals, flaxseed,
potatoes, sweet potatoes, tame hay, to-
bacco, and cotton lint. Three states
stand out far in the lead in their share
Of this great and unprecedented total,
Illinois is In the front with value of
$775,000,000 for these crops, Iowa is
next with $712,O00,O0O, and Texas is
third with $e47, 100000.
The position of Texas is determined
by the cotton crop, which was much
damaged by drought; in 1915 and in
the average of the preceding five years
Texas led all the states in the total
value of these crops, and this with
out including cottonseed in the value
Of the cotton crop. The states that
follow In order after Texas in 1917 are
Ohio, Missouri, Indiana, Georgia, and
Minnesota, with values ranging from
$470,000,000 to $418,O00O00.
Great Achievement.
These figures represent great
achievement by the nations agricui-
tural forces, and the workers well de-
serve to be cited for commentator.
But 1t is not the time to rest on these
gains. 1t is time to plan for greater
efforts this year. as Secretary Houston
recently pointed out.
In comparing the geographic divi-
sions Of the country with one another
for 1917, the great predominance Of
the North Central states is conspicu-
GUS, and their production is mostly hui
man food and animal food. The II
chief crops produced in these states,
for cotton does not appear, had value
that Is nearly one-half, or over 48 per
cent, Of the value Of the Is crops for
the whole country. OF this division,
the section west Of the Mississippi
river produced the greater value, or
over q per cent, Of the nations total,
while the eastern section produced II
per cent.
Production in South.
The entire South produced nearly
three-eighths of the total value Of the
nations Is crops, or 361a per cent,
and this fraction was divided among
the three sections so that the South
Atlantic states produced IA per cent,
the South Central section east Of the
