" We appeal to the best homes in

gency and volunteer help" said Mr..
Austin in issuing the call for relief.
1T is the intention of the admins
tration to put the students in the best
gqrters 0btaiE- M and ..the whole
situation Of houses should be ex-

done at the college as every foot Of
space has been taken in advance
The thing is now largely up to the
homes of Chickasha."
No hotel or public rooming house
will be considered in assigning stu
dents, Mr. Austin states

Farmers of Grady Take TO Gov
ernment Proposition to III
nance Hard Hit Wheat
Growers for Year
MANY APPLICATIONS
RECEIVED BY AGENT
Pocasset District Leads; Seventy
Have Filed for Portion of
Appropriation; other
Sections Waking Up.

That farmers all over Grady county
are rapidly taking up the federal
esed wheat loan proposition for rails
! ing another wheat crop was the
statement issued this morning by
Farm Agent J. w. Owens at the be-
ginning Of the last days drive to
introduce the federal stake to wheat
raisers of the county who have fail
ed for the past few years. At every
point visited during the last week
Mr.. Owens has found the movement
well advertised and both farmers
and bankers ready to make first
steps in taking out the loan.
Since the district seed wheat meet
ing conducted by the county coun-
Gil Of defense here last week, the
county agent has been on the road
continually lining up the wheat
wrowing districts of the county
AT Pocasset the idea has taken with
a rush, farmers making applications
by the dozens for recommendations
to the Department of Agriculture,
Mr.. Owens says, Already some
thing like 10 applications from Po-
casset have been filed at the office
of the county farm agent and more
are coming in from that point to-
day. Beyond any doubt, the seed
wheat distribution will center at Po-
cassett whore tho crop has failed
for two successive years. because OF
droulh, the agent reports.
Amber and Minco were organized
the first of this week and record
conference was staged at futile yes
terday. According to the first order
of organization made out by the
form agent, meeting at Alex today
should finish the program for the
county but bankers at Verden have
called for a special meeting because
of the unusual interest that has been
melted there during the past few
days, Mr.. Owens will go to Verden
tomorrow.
In few localities of Grady county
the idea has been circulated that
federal seed wheat Iona benefits
were appropriate as a special act
of charity for the sake Of bankrupt
farmers, according to Mr. Owens.
Speaking with reference to this pro
blem MIR. Owens declares that farm
ers and bankers have been convinced
at every meeting place of the fallacy
of such rumors. Five million dollars
has been appropriated for the use of
the Department of Agriculture for
loaning out to farmers who have ex-
perienced poor wheat seasons be-
cause of drouths or winter killing and
that the movement is merely to en-
courage farmers to stay on their
lands and produce food has been
pointed out by the department
agents.
Local committees composed of
well known bankers and business
men will investigate conditions in
cases of applications for part in
the government loan and report to
the farm agent who viii make rec
Loan Bank at Wichita County agents
concentrations to the Federal Land
will make personal inspections only
after the wheat is planted.

The Principal Point of he Whole
Controversy Was Left
Untouched

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Secre-
tary Baker came up for cross exam-
nation today before the Senate Mill
tary Committee on his picture of the
state of preparedness Of the army
which congressional critics have at
tackled as grossly exaggerated.
But the principal point Of the whole
controversy, the question of where
the army is going to get ships to
transport million men to France
this year was left untouched, partly
because Secretary Baker did not have
the detailed figures to show the COM
mittee on what basis he made his
assertion and partly because the COM
mittee got into a squabble. \ over
whether it would be proper to have
the Secretary Of War sdiclose the
figures in public.
The upshot of it was that the ques-
ton of ships was left to be presented
IN detailed exact statement to the
committee in secret session tomor-
row and the cross examination went
on to other subjects of a general
nature. ~easS&
Senator Hitchcock who has attack
ed particularly the Secretary of Wars
statement that the United States
could put million men in France
this year in addition to 100000 there
early this spring was insistent that
Mr.. Baker should show the committee
what ground he had for believing
there were ships available for their
transport and supplies.
Secretary Baker replied he did not
have the exact figures in his mind
but that his statement was made on
figures which had been prepared by
experts who took in the information
at the disposal of the shipping board
as well as what ships might be avail
able from neutral and foreign ports,
