LAND SHARKS PLAN
TO PROFITEER VETS
BUYING HUGE TRACTS AT HIGH
FIGURES TO WORK OFF ON
SOLDIERS IF BILL PASSES.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Informa-
ton that large land companies in the
South and West are planning to reap
huge profits through the sale of land
to the government for distribution to
service men under the Mondell sol
diers land bill has been received by
several members of congress.
Land interests in the South have
obtained options on large tracts of
swamp lands and other land that
heretofore have been considered
practically worthless agreeing to pay
four times what the land has been
selling for, in the anticipation of I'M
loading it on the government at a
greatly increased price, according to
reports received by Representative
Nichols, of Michigan, of the public
lands committee, which has reported
favorably the soldiers land bill.
Word also has been received by
other representatives from western
states that options have been taken
on large plots of arid land in various
parts of the West as surprisingly
high prices by large interests.
Most of the land is not now rails
ing crops nor ever has, but the IN
terests are certain that this is the
of agricultural property the govern
ment hopes to sell to soldiers and tie
them down for years in the payment
according to the letters being receiv-
ed.
Attacks to Be Made on Bill.
Representatives who do not believe
the land bill will prove beneficial to
the large majority of the men who
made sacrifices during the war are
planning to ask the house to make a
complete investigation of the charges
before the bill is passed. Meanwhile
they are planning individual investi-
cation and will submit their findings
to congress during the debate on the
bill in case the investigation cannot
be obtained.

CURRENCY
Amount in Circulation Is Blamed
For Present High Cost of Liv-
ing, Says Senator Meyers.

WASHINGTON. - The high
cost of living on Thursday was
debated in the senate during
consideration of a resolution
proposing reduction Of the
amount of currency in circula-
ton.
Senator Meyers said the
amount of money in circulation
was partly responsible for pres
ent conditions.
Senator Meyers said increases
in wages invariably were follow
ed by advances in living costs,
thus creating "an endless
chain"
Senator Poindexter said the
president had been given $780,
100000 to feed distressed Euro
pean peoples and added, 'but it
would be impossible to get an
appropriation of $1,0O0,OO0 for
food for Americans"
One of the reasons urged for
the appropriation to supply food
to Europe, Senator Poindexter
said, was maintenance of meat
and food prices.

A bill has been introduced in the
Georgia legislature aimed at the
use of tobacco in any form whatever,
and measures have been introduced
in the legislatures of other southern
and western states to put ban up
on cigarettes.
To Gag Nicotine.
The organization freely admits
to it's friends that it has definite and
specific plans call for paging "Lady
Nicotine" and to bind and gag her
through total abolition of the use, the
sale and even the growth of tobacco
in any form.
Mrs. Elizabeth H. Perkins, nation
al executive secretary of the w. c.
T. u, told an investigator eve
certainly contemplate abolishing to-
bacco. Our campaign against not on
ly cigarettes, but all forms of tobac-
co, will be under way just as soon
as prohibition is definitely accom-
plished."
Mrs. Perkins is further quoted as
saying: eve think that smokers
would give up smoking more readily
if it was not for the persistent ad-
vertising in the newspapers. [ think
that cigarettes we're given undue pub
licity during the war, and that it IS a
great wrong to send so many clrgar-
cites to the soldiers. It merely teach
es the soldiers to smoke, and science
shows us that smoking could not pos
sibly have done them good"

against both the spook and his alleg-
ed sponsor, Daniel Balsinger, of Oak
land, N. j.
The three took a chance and
bought a farm from Balsinger in
May, 1918, on the strength of his as
surance that Capt. Kidd's spirit had
appeared to him in the night and re-
vealed the exact spot on the farm
where he had buried whole chests of
pieces of eight, doubloons and other
treasures that pirates are wont to col
lect.
To bind the bargain the purchasers
paid 5000 in cash and gave their note
for $4,000. They do not wish to pay
the note now because they have dug
up the entire farm without finding
single doubloon. They asked the
court to declare the note void on the
ground that it was agreed with Bal
singer that the $4,000 was to be paid
out of the treasure.

Paris, March 26.-The main points
VI the recent debate between Senator
Lodge and DR.. Lowell and the text
of the speeches of Senator Lodge and
Knox are being gone over by the
league of nations commission and are
aiding in shaping the changes in the
league draft.
The amendments have been divided
Into three classes: First, those by neE-
trails; second, those by an American
senator; third, those framed by Presi.
dent Wilson, Colonel House and Lord
Robert Cecil. The last named group
includes all points which the trainers
of the instrument believe will clarity
it's meaning and satisfy objections in
all quarters.
The advocates of the league of ma.
tions maintain it is in no way retard-
ing the progress of the peace treaty,
as the league meetings are held at
night and are nearing a conclusion,
where the obstacles to the treaty are
on questions of principle, OF which the
premiers thus far have been unable to
secure an agreement.
The War council again dealt with
Poland, which question is close to set
Element. 1t is understood that the
recommendations of the Cambon com
mittee for a Polish corridor across
East Prussia to the Baltic will pre-,
vail, despite the objections raised by
Premier Lloyd George. The Polish di
visions at present in France probably
will proceed to the Baltic and NAV
land at Koenigsberg, instead of Dan.
zig, in order to avoid a clash with the
Germans over Danzig.

that the large number of amendments
would be completed and the revision
of the covenant concluded without an,

SMALLPOX IS RAGING
Typhoid and Spotted Fever Also
Prevail at Petrograd.
More Than One Hundred and Thirteen
Thousand Persons Died Dur
ing February.

Paris, March 26.-According to Rus
sian police statistics just received in
Paris, during February more than 49,.
600 persons died in Petrograd. The
total population of Petrograd Feb. l
was 100000. In addition to the deaths
during the month, 1900 persons left
Petrograd and the population was
about 100000 March l.
American relief workers, who left
Moscow Feb. II, say that deaths in
that city early in February averaged
1000 daily. They say that conditions
there were similar to those in
in Petrograd, where smallpox, typhus.
starvation and the hunger plague
were raging unchecked.
Collins are no longer sold in Mos
COW, but are only rented for use at
funerals.
In addition to spotted fever and ty.
phoid fever, Petrograd is being raw
aged by smallpox, according to adj
vices through Helsingfors. All the
hospitals are crowded and the NOR
tality is increasing daily. The bodies
of the dead are collected in big wood
en- cases and emptied into large
graves, the cases then being returned
to the hospitals, filled again and the
process repeated.
