SUGAR CONTROL
BY GOVERNMENT
IS NECESSARY

Washington, Oct. -(United Press.)
IF tho sugar supply is taken from
control Of the governments Of the world
a shortage is sure TO be felt and prices
will be high, Dr.Alonzo Taylor told u
senate subcommittee investigating the
sugar situation today.
Taylor represented the secretary of
agriculture at the hearings. He is a
former member of the war trade board.
The people of Europe are protesting
against government restrictions, but the
people Of America are consuming what
they please, regardless Of price, Taylor
said
The committee is considering the bill
to continue the sugar equalization board
for year.
Judge WilliGm A. Glasgow, of the
sugar equalization board, told the COM
mittec that the only possible method of
a price control was in the licensing sys-
ten operated during the war. and that
unless the board was given full power
over the wholesale dealers there would
be no use in maintaining it.
Senator Ransdel, Louisina, favored
purchasing outright the available Cuban
sugar crop and fixing prices by a meth
Cd of publicity, but Judge Glasgow de,
clared prices could no longer be fixed
by public opinion.
Senator Harrison, Mississippi, told the
committee that he understood Louisiana
planters intended to withhold the cane
crop if the licensing prevailed, prefer
ring to replant rather than accept what
they consider an insufficient profit.
Judge Glasgow said he had heard If
no such proposal and that he believed
the licensing system could be renewed
without serious complaint from the SUI
gar refiners or the sugar interests in
general.

SET STAGE FOR
SALE Of SEALS

BOISE.-The stage is being rapidly
set for the approaching Red Gross
Christmas Seal Sale in Idaho, which
begins Dec. l and runs through an in
tensive campaign which ends Dec III:
Various districts have been organized
in charge of chairmen who in turn arc
appointing county chairmen to look
after the local end of the work. F. F.
Johnson of Boise is chairman of the
state committee in charge of the drive,
with Mrs. J. o. Athey, who has been
for a number of years cesretary OF the
Anti tuberculosis association, as sec
retary. Prospects for the success OF
the campaign are reported to be tirst
class.
1t may not be generally under
stood that the money raised from the
sale of Red Cross Christmas seals is
devoted to the study and prevention
of tuberculosis in this state. While
Idaho has been comparatively and for
tunately free from this disease, which
annually. claims thousands of lives,
the thought of those in charge of the
seal campaign is that the state must
be kept in its present good condition,
Disease Is Prevalent
More than 800 hundred Idaho boys
were rejected after examinations for
entrance into the army on account Of
tuberculosis. While this is a small
number in comparison with the popu-
lation of the state and the general
prevalence of the disease in other
states, it is high enough to startle
those who thought they were familiar
with conditions.
The plan is TO raise approximately
$4,000 by the sale of Christmas seals
this year. This amount has been APP
portioned among the various counties
so that the burden will rest very
lightly on each of them and still the
sum raised will be sufficient to carry
on the campaign for another year.
The seals this year are particularly
attractive. They show a picture oi
Santa Claus and the double red cross
in bright colors and are unusually
well adapted to sealing Christmas
packages and attaching to Christina:
letters. The cost is one cent each
and sthe committee believes that ev-
cry citizen of Idaho would be able tc
make use of them during the holidays

Development Tour which ended at
Milwaukee several weeks ago after
travelling over 1900 miles through
the six richest farming states of the
for consumption of gasoline. oil and
water. according to G. Z. Wyckoff
Of the Wycloff Motor company. It
travelled the same rough roads and
carried It's share Of the overloads,
from soft fields AZ the other partic-
ipants. The truck was Maxwell.
A stock IL tom truck was taken
from production without preliminary
tuning up'' and placed IN the long
demonstration tour In competition
with the best In America. e trav-
ersed several Of the worst roads in
the country, over plowed fields and
in country lanes, at times hauling
many hundred pounds In excess of
its rated capacity and made . re-
markable record.
No Adjustment Necessary
The Maxwell came through with
out need Of mechanical adjustment
and the big 36x6 pneumatic tires
which carried the truck looked at
the finish a. though they had not
been run over one hundred miles.
Records available show that the
Maxwell averaged slightly over 13
miles to the gallon Of gas, over
100 miles to the gallon Of oil, and
383 miles to the gallon Of water.
These gas and OIL records which
! understand were from one to five
gallons higher than the average, are
good under the most favorable con-
ditions," said Mr.. Wyckoff, but ]
consider them exceptional when Il Is
considered that the truck carried
loads Of potatoes out of soft fields
to market, hauled stacks of wheat
from field to thresher. hurried over
loads Of milk from farm to shipping
points, and otherwise demonstrated
its usefulness under all conditions
to all the needs Of the American
farmer. Over smooth stretches Of
prairie road the Maxwell made as
high as II miles to the gallon OF
gas which is as good as the consump-
ton Of the average pleasure car.
Difficult Demonstration
Near Fargo. N. D., Percy Gibbs.
driver Of the truck, made his most
difficult demonstration. From the
Schroeder Bros. farm two loads OF
potatoes. each Weighing 3,700
pounds, were taken from q soft
plowed field, where the wheels of
truck sank hub deep in the mire, to
the depot, five miles away. Grocer
les. grain, bran, flour, milk, furnaces
potatoes. pop, gasoline, oil, baggage
and general merchandise were car
ried at different times during the
tour proving the Maxwell's versatil-
ity.
The ability Of the truck to pull
through muddy stretches of gumbo
road and over slippery hills that the
natives claimed were impassable. on
fs own power II matter Of pride
with driver Gibbs who has travelled
some of the worst roads in the
country and who asserts that some
OF those traversed by the truck train
were as bad as any he had seen.
Rural interest was extreme at
all points along the 5000 mile trail
where the demonstrations were held
and many subsequent sales result
cd" said Mr.. wyckof. "This con-
firms my belief that when the Amer
lean farmer realizes the ADVANTAGES
OF motorixing his acreage he win be
