ALLEGES PLOT TO BLACKMAIL
Howard MartlndaIe, Banker Of MadI-
son, Has Man Arrested When
500 Was Demanded.

Ernest c. Montgomery, a commercial
traveller of Kansas City, was locked in
a cell at police headquarters for in
vestigation of an alleged blackmail
plot against Howard Martindale, bank
er and politician of Madison. Mont
gomery formerly lived at 3140 Main
street. He has been stopping recently
at the Hotel Baltimore.
Montgomery was arrested in Martin
dale's room at the Hotel Baltimore by
Edward P. Boyle and James Dyer, city
detectives. The Kansan declared
Montgomery attempted to extort
money from him for alleged alienation
of the affections of the latters' wife.
Martindale is 81 years old. He was
the Republican nominee for Congress
from his district two years ago and
was defeated. Montgomery is 27 years
old and travels for the Northwestern
Chemical Company of Chicago. His
wife, Ethfrieal, is %.
According to Martindales' story to
the police, he first met Mrs. Mont
gomery last August at cabaret per-
formance in Kansas City hotel. Re-
Gently Montgomery came to Kansas
City and registered at the Baltimore.
While standing in the lobby Of the
hotel he saw Martindale.
Then, Martindale says. Montgomery
asked him for $100, threatening ex-
posure and political ruination if the
Kansan failed to comply with his de-
mand. Martindale agreed to meet
Montgomery at o'clock in his room.
Then he called the police detectives
to his room and told them of the affair.
The detectives hid in the room and
at the appointed hour Montgomery
came. Again the demand for money
was made. Martindale said, "All
right, but want you to write me q
receipt"
AS Montgomery handed the receipt
to Martindale the detectives appeared
from their hiding place and on Mar
tindale's order took Montgomery tC
police headquarters.
Martindale said the affair was plot
to ruin him politically. Montgomery
told the police the $10O was "just 6
loan"

RuraI sehOO!s to rake Seed census

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 2.-Students in
the rural schools OF Kansas will be
enlisted in making what probably
will be the most detailed seed census
ever undertaken in the United States,
according to an announcement made
here today by DR.. VIM. Jardine, chair
man Of the agricultural committee
of the council of defense. On Febru.
ary II, each student will be given a
card on which his parent is asked to
list the kind, quantity and quaIitay Of
sede he has on hand, what he needs
for spring planting. and what he is
willing to sell. The cards will be
returned to the schools with samples
of the seed listed. The state agri.
cultural college will test the seed.
Seed tests already made, DIR. Jar
dine reported, show in most cases a
very low percentage Of termination.
In order to prevent profiteering, the
agricultural production committee was
instructed by the council to determine
upon and publish list of reasonable
prices that should be charged for va
rious kinds and qualities of seed.

FIRST VESSEL OF NEW DESIGN
HAS BEEN STARTED IN FORD
MOTOR PLANT.
WILDE ROUGH HEWN PRODUCT
VIII Progress by Stages Until Finally
Launched at Detrolt-Wlll Be Taken
to Sea Level via Canal SYSTEM
Built for Speed. Not Looks.

Washington, Feb. 2.-Production
plans for the navy's new anti-subma-
rine craft contemplate the delivery
of a finished boat every day when
the cycle of production is complete.
The first vessel has already been
started in the fabricating shops at
the Ford Motor company plant at
Detroit.
Construction will go by stages. To
turn out boat day after the elapse
of several months requires that a
boat day be started. Materials that
go into construction are fed into one
end of the plant as rapidly as 1t is
planned to produce the completed
product at the other. The whole
number of boats contracted for will
be under production simultaneously
at one stage.
The design was worked out to re-
duce to a minimum the necessity of
shipping plates. There are many flat
surfaces to the vessel on that ac-
count, bent and curved plates having
been avoided wherever possible.
The boats will all be fabricated at
the Ford plant, progressing by
stages until they are launched at
Detroit, to be brought to the
sea via the canal system and in
land waterways. They will measure
200 feet and displace about 500 tons
which insures easy passage to the
sea.
No attempt has been made to give
the design the refinements Of navy
crafts built In peace times. They will
be rough hewn into shape In thu
interest OF speed. The number o
boats ordered has not been revealed
but only a substantial order woult
justify the preparations for produc
ton which must be made.
Military characteristics of the de
sign also have not been disclosed
It is known, however, that while the
do not represent anything strikingl
new in submarine warfare. they vii

way as to effect decided improve
ment in the patrol service as the
