READY FOR BAND CONTROL HOOVER
Stubbs Asserts Packers Run
Food Department.
KanSan BlameS Farmers for
Letting Them Do 1t.

Kansas City, Mo-, March 9.-W. R.
Stubbs, former governor of Kansas,
addressing the convention of the Mis-
souri, Livestock Producers association
here today, charged that the meat di-
vision of the food administration has
been controlled largely by the larger
packers of the country and that Her
bert Hoover, federal food administra-
tor, has permitted them to dominate
the policies of the division He fur
ther charged that nearly all of the
advisers of the division are packers
agents, and that the meat producers
of the country-the farmers and stock
raisers-are not represented.
Mr. Stubbs declared that in his
opinion, the meat producers them
selves were responsible for the condi-
tions he outlined because they had
stayed at home, raising their stock,
he said, while the packing industry
gained control of the meat division.
Urges Farmers Be Represented
He urged Immediately steps on the
part of the convention to obtain rep
resentatfon for the producers in the
food administration"
Mr.. Hoover has lost the confidence
of a large percentage of the meat pro-
ducers of the middle west" Mr.. Stubbs
asserted. He has permitted himself
to be surrounded by small coterie of
packers and their representatives, who
have virtually dominated the policy OF
the meat division The real producers
have not been represented"

With the American Army in France,
Thursday. March IA lone Ameri-
can sentry this morning attacked an
enery patrol of about forty men,
some of whom had stealthily entered
an advanced American trench. He
drove them off, killing the leader and
wourding others. The first reports
of the encounter were that another
raid had take- place and all along
the ne details were being awaited
eagerly. But investigation showed
that one American started what there
was of an offensive. The name of
this man is mentioned in all reports
of me affair and he has been con-
graduated heartily by his officers
and comrades for his courage and
evelheadedness.
The sentry saw the patrol advanc-
ing and looked on as the Germans
began to drop cautiously into the
trench He knew that an American
patrol was out along the wire not
far away and counted upon its help
after he opened fire. There were
four men in the American patrol By
the time five Germans had entered
the trench the sentry thought he
should delay no longer. especially as
the under-officer who was leading the
Germans had approached within a
few yards of him.

HE WHO LAUGHS LAST
Strong Wind Incident Enacted on
Banks of Sandy kaw.

The wind had the i'll taste this noon
to remove the sartorial covering from
the head of a long. tall. thin young
man and he, having no inclination to
buy a new one. hurried right along
after the head covering trying to over
take it before the thing reached the
river. Each time air currents de-
posted the hat few feet in front of
him and each time as he reached out
for it straining every muscle to grab
it's brim, on it rolled.
AS it reached the banks of the
muddy Kaw this ill-fated human made
dive and just reached the ribbon of
the lid, pulling it from watery and
rather damp grave. In the meanwhile,
on the bridge. stood a man with a
sense of humor when the joke didn't
concern himself, watching the tall
young person in his efforts to run
down his property. All at once zip,
and right up in the air went his new
gray spring Borcalino. floating along
several minutes and finally falling
gracefully into the river. With a
shrug and frcwn he turned on his
heel and started toward Nortn Topeka.

SINK RUSS SHIPS
Two Transports Sent Down by
German DestfOyerS.
Probably Red Guards En- Route
To Possess Aland Island.

Copenhagen, March German de-
stroyers have sunk Russian transports
south of the Aland islands, according
to information received here today.
The transports are reported to have
fought unsuccessfully.
The Aland islands lie between
Sweden and Finland, at the entrance
to the Gulf of Bothnia. They We're
taken from Sweden by Russia in 1906
and are inhabited largely by Swedes.
German forces were reported to
have occupied the islands recently to
aid the Firms in restoring order"
1t was believed at the time that Ger
many would use these islands as a
base of operations for driving the last
of the Bolshevik Red guard out of
Finland.
The presence of Russian transports
in that vicinity might indicate an at
tempt of the Bolsheviki to retake the
islands. If the transports went down,
it is probable there was a heavy loss
of life

Petrograd. March 9.-Leon Trotzky
in an address at a meeting of the Max
imalist party announced that he had
resigned as commissary for foreign af-
fairs.
AS the Bolsheviki minister, Leon
Trotzky, whose real name is Leber
Braunstein, was the most important
me mber of the revolutionary govern
ment. formed after the overthrow of
Kerensky last November Altho
Nikolai Lenine as premier was the
nominal head of the government,
Trotzky virtually controlled Russia's
destiny up to the second peace confer
ence at Brest-Litovsk. 1t was Trotzky
who made public the text of secret
documents and it was he who propos-
ed the armistice to the central powers
early in December which eventually
led to the abortive conference at
Brest-Litovsk. The negotiations were
disrupted in mid-February and hostili-
ties were renewed. The Germans then
submitted partial peace terms but
Trotzky took no part in the confer
ences.
Trotzky's resignation is the second
among the Russian leaders foreca st
by Berlin. On February Is, Berlin
reported that Ensign Krylenko. COM
mander of the Russian army, had
been superseded A dlSpatch received
in London Thursday said Krylenko
had resigned owing to differences with
the council of peoples commissaries-
Trotzkys resignation was forecast by
Berlin last Tuesday. The withdra walls
of Trotzky and Krylenko leave Lenine
as the survivor of the Bolsheviki rul-
ing triumvirate.
Trotzky Once i'm Kansas.
Having escaped from Siberia where
he was sent for political offenses,
Trotzky was an exile in America at the
outbreak of the war. He was expelled
from Europe for preaching peace and
arrived in New York on January Il,
1917, but returned to Russia last April.

government
! At Girard, Kan. it is claimed that
