TYPICAL BOcHE PROPAGANDA

Theodore Roosevelt's death
made impossible the scheme of
Lieutenant w. w. Tanney, Of
'Pittsburg, an aviator, to deliver
to the former President a picture
postal which was widely cir
culated in wartime Germany
showing the body of his youngest
son, Lieutenant Quentin Roose-
welt, lying face upward beside his
shattered biplane. The photo
graph evidently was staged for
propaganda purposes by Boche
photographers and spread broad
cast through Germany by the
Kaiser's military authorities to
show the people convincing proof
of the death of one of Mr..
Roosevelt's warrior sons, a typi-
cal piece of Boche propaganda.
Y. M. C. A. workers found
Lieutenant Tanney when they
entered Strassburg with relief
for American wounded and pris-
oners. He wore the same blood
stained blouse he had on when
he was shot down from the sky
while on a daylight bombing raid
on Cologne. At that time nine
Boche aviators attacked him.
Tanney was shot through the
shoulders and lungs. While in
the hospital he obtained posses
sion of the picture postcard which
he displayed to the Y. M. G. A.
men who took comforts to him.
He confded to the "Y" workers
then that as soon as he returned
to America he intended to give
the postcard to Theodore Roose-
yelt.

BIG FAMINE STALKS
THROUGHOUT EUROPE
DR.. Alonzo Taylor Says Millions of
Persons Have No Food and They
Look to United States.

New York.-Dr. Alonzo Taylor pro-
fessor of chemistry in the University
of Pennsylvania, chairman OF surveys
for the American relief administra-
ton, has returned to the United States
after eight monthsswork in Germany,
Austria, Hungary, Rumania and Ser
bia.
There are millions of people in
Europe who have no food" he said,
and who look to the United States to
supply it. Growing of crops abroad
is curtailed pending territorial adjust
ments. Governments will not spend
millions of dollars for farm imple-
ments, even If they can obtain them,
to be used on land that may shortly
be given to neighboring nation.
Central Europe In Chaos.
There are nearly one hundred mil
lions of people in central Europe" he
said. The armistice left these in po-
litical chaos, divided into new states,
struggling with inexperienced govern
ments, their transportation disorganiz-
ed, with scarcity of coal, great depre-
citation OF currency, acute struggles
between labor and capital and all over
the pail of war fatigue.
Food was the immediate problem
If they could be carried into the new
harvest this would afford time in part
for their governments to become sta
bilized, their communications to be
restored, their railways reorganized,
their supplies of fuel established This
would give six months for the study
of their problem of currency and for
the re-establishment of industry in or.
der that interstate commerce might be
resumed.
"The great defect in central Europe
today, indeed, in Europe as whole, is
the failure of production"
His report and Britain's delegate is
about the same.

Very little wheat of the new crop
is being marketed in the Pacific north
west according to Max Houser, second
vice president of the grain corpora
ton. Mr.. Houser announces that the
United States Grain corporation will
add no storage premiums to the basic
prices in it's buying scale for the pres
eut, nor until there accumulates in the
grain corporations hands a sufficient
reserve of wheat to assure "a measure
of protection for future home require
ments
In accordance with this policy the
wheat director is refusing proffered
contracts which foreign buyers are de-
sirous of making at the grain cOrpo-
ration price level" said Mr.. Houser.
These buyers are apparently anxious
to cover their requirements for some
months in advance. Apparently their
inability to secure supplies in other
sources of wheat makes them especial
ly urgent in proposing contracts with
the United States, but these contracts
can not be entered into until suf-
ficient accumulation of wheat in the
hands of the grain corporation fur
nishes assurance of reasonable prices
to our own people"

WASHINGTON STATE FACES
S2,183,527 DEFICIT NOW
Shown by Estimates for Equalization
Board-Amount Must Be Covered
by Warrants.

Olympia. day Tor the
legislative appropriation program of
last winter is approaching, and the
result is an apparent deficit of ST.
1882 for the biennium ending with
next year, even if the limit of mills
tax is levied in 1919 for state purposes
on a total state valuation of 81 ,050,-
100000, which is $5O,00e,00O increase
over last years total valuation.
These estimates have been prepared
by the bureau of inspection for consid-
GRAFTON by the state board of equali-
cation, which will begin its annual SEES
sion Sept. /. They are accepted as
meaning that the deficit will have to
be carried on warrants until the next
legislature makes an appropriation to
retire them, which, with other state
expenses to be provided for at that
time, will probably insure indefinite
continuance of the 3-mill limit levy
for state purposes.
Has $858,29o in General Fund.
In detail the bureau finds a credit
of $85S,290 general fund cash in the
state treasury on April l. to which is
added $3,232,200 incoming revenues
other than taxes and S3,150,000 which
the 3-mill levy would produce on the
$1,000, 100000 valuation figured All of
the uncollected taxes included will
have to be collected to prevent the
present deficit estimate from growing
still bigger.
AS it stands the total of available
revenue falls more than 100000
short of the total of $40. 507 ,023. appro-
priated last winter under a signed-up
appropriation committee program that
permitted no amendment and little dis
cussion of the general appropriation
bill on the floor.
In the bureau estimate detail the
public highway fund shows a deficit
of $584,746. the university 1921 ,816,
state college $114.O04. All the nor
mails are behind from $52,854, Cheney's
deficit, to $76,140 for Bellingham and
s46.318 for Ellensburg.
