threshed his wheat and oats crop
Tuesday and Wednesday. The wheat
yielded 1S3 bushels to the acre and
the oats about SO bushels. Both
wheat and oats are of a good quality.
There should be no distinguishment
made between war profiteers, the
slackers and the disloyal. They all
should be given the same treatment
and that treatment ought to be of the

Who and what the Czecho- Slovak

cent article in the Boston Transcript
which said:
at consists of BOhemians and Mora.
vians Of Austria, Slavs, haters of the
rule of the Hapsburgs and the Hohen-
zOllerns, most of whom were Austrian
prisoners of war in Russia and mutt
ncers and refugees from the Austrian
Army in Galicia, and who, since the
revolution in Russia, have been gravita-
ting together and endeavoring TO cross
the country and reach the Pacific Coast
and embark for this country in order
to join the armies Of the Entente and
fight against Austria and Germany.
Partially thwarted in this attempt by
BOlsheviki mischief and German in
trigue, these Czecho- -Slovals, under
commanders of their own, are taking
matters into their own hands. In a
country given up to anarchy, they are
proving n nucleus for new order. II
seems to be quite easy. Undoubtedly
they have received recruits not only
from Austria, but from the Russians

their forces seem to have resembled
ball of snow which becomes larger
and larger the farther il is rolled. Some
thousands of them are already at Via

History, as matter of fact-and
particularly the history of Asia and
eastern Europe-is full of instances
Of the conversion of such military
nuclei into empires. The Turks were
nothing but such band Of wanderers;
the Mongols or "MoGuls Of India such

TO
CONTROL
PRICE OF SUGAR
Wilson Directs Course Similar To
That Pursued To Fix Wheat
Prices When Congress Failed
To Agree

WASHINGTON, July 12--(Asso-
ciated PresSl - To equa1ise and
stabiiizs- the price Of sugar TO the
consumer In the face Of the pros
pect Of increase in prices Of the
producer, and due TO the threaten
ed shortage Of sugar, as well as to
secure a better distribution, Prest-
dent Wilson has pursued the same
course with this commodity that he
did with wheat and has created
special sugar equalization board"
and recommended the mcorpora-
ton Of a sugar stabilizing corpora
tion in New Jersey.
Food Administrator Hoover is to
carry out these plans. The cor
poration will be capitalized at $6,-
100000 and the funds for the pur-
chase Of its stock by the govern
ment will be taken from the Presi-
dent 5 special war fund.
This corporation will have au-
thority to acquire, even at q loss
to the government, the production
of the beet sugar factories that
cannot under the present price paid
for beets, the increased freight
rates and other increased costs,
meet the agreed price for beet
sugar at a profit. These purchases
the corporation will sell to the
public at a reasonable price. Thus
will be established and maintained
a price which will work a consider
able saving to the consumer.
Hoover will be chairman Of the
equalization board and George
Ralph, chairman Of the sugar com
mittee, will be the president Of the
new corporation.
There was to have been held
meeting of beet sugar makers on
June "a but this was indefinitely
postponed and at the time 1t was
presumed this was done at the re-
quest of the sugar committee of
the food administration. Oscar g.
Strauss was previously named as
investigator Of beet sugar costs and
prices following a report rendered
to the food administration by the
beet sugar manufacturers.
