Homemade Gas.

Homemade gas is used by the Span
ish peasants living in the cork-oak re-
gions Of that country, the gas being OBJ
tanned from cork refuse. AS described
by one authority, the process consists
in filling several large teakettles with
the waste bark, and placing each in
turn over the fire during the evening,
burning the volatile gas as 1t escapes
from the spouts. The carbonized resi-
due forms the fine black-brown pig
ment known to commerce as Spanish
brown"

GORE SAYS $2.26
WHEAT WILL STAY
Wants Government to Pay
Difference Between That
and Normal Price
REASSURES FARMER S
Senator Asserts Consumer
Should Not Bear Burden,
and Treasury Must

Washington, Feb. 11.-Senator Gore,
of Oklahoma. chairman of the Senate
Agricultural Committee. in an address
today in the Senate declared that the
farmers of the United States could rest
assured that the government would keep
faith with them In carrying out the
guaranty Of a price Of S2.26 a bushel for
wheat.
The government, he said, should pay
the difference between the guaranteed
price and the price dictated by the
law of supply and demand, for to do
otherwise would create a state of un-
stable economic equilibrium"
The Presidential proclamation fixing
the price for 1919 wheat. Senator Gore
asserted. creates an obligation against
the government--an obligation which is
as sacred and an obligation which is
held as inviolate as that of thrift
stamp or a United States bond"
OF the two methods of carrying out
the guaranty--requiring the consumer
to pay the difference between the fixed
price and price, in the unreguated
market and authorizing the government
to pay this difference--Gore said eco
nomic considerations recommend the
last, which. has been endorsed by the
House Agricultural Committee and en-
bodied in its bill.
To make the consumer pay the diff
ference, the Senator said, would only
mean a continuation of the imitation
manifested during the war. which might
have serious consequences.
Serious as the charge might be upon

Island the immigration authorities
called on the United States army for
aid. A lieutenant and twenty soldiers
boarded the vessel. The radicals were
lined UP on deck and were warned by
the army officer that he and his men
had come aboard TO preserve order, and
that they were prepared to use their

STRUGGLE ABOARD BOAT
By the Associated Pres,

New York, Feb. 1l.-Fifty-four radi-
cals-alien-born anarchists, Industrial
Workers Of the World and others-ar-
rived at Hoboken today on a train from
the West en- route 10 the Ellis Island i'm
migration station. where they are to be
detained until arrangements can be COM
pleted for their deportation.
As group OF men were led from
the train to the boat on which trans
ferral was made to Ellis Island three
cheers for the Bosheviki were given
and three more for The ]. w. w.
One Woman In Custody
The first group which stepped from
the cars moved quietly along the Della
ware. Lackawanna and Western Rail
road platform and was escorted by the
guards from the train, twenty railroad
police and six immigration inspectors.
When all of the fifty-three men and one
woman had reached the decks of the inn
migration boat the police ordered the
|. w. w. members to separate them
selves from the others and move to
one end of the vessel.
One J. w. w. member objected and
struck policeman on the nose with his
fist. Others Of the |. W. w. closed in,
the police came to the rescue OF the
man attacked and not until clubs had
been used freely and effectively were
the l. W. w. members subdued.
Another version OF the disturbance
was that one of the ffty-four had
throughout the journey from the West
been a marked man among his fellows
suspected of being not a radical but a
government agent in disguise.

ties. The woman had on a fur coat
