The notion which prevailed In some

APPEAL SENT To WASHINGTON
Federal Trade Commission Is
Asked To Give Relief.
Many Complaints Have Been
Received by Governor.

Kansas stockmen are facing finan-
cial ruin as a result of the profiteer-
ing tactics of the millers. That is the
charge against the milling interests of
the state by Governor Capper. Charges
which the govtrnor has sent to Wash
ington assert that lie nation faces an
absolute breakdown of its effort to
secure in.- -ased beef and pork pro-
duction. This situation, he charges, is
due to the policies of the millers.
In support of his charge that the
millers are gouging the stock raisers
of the state, the governor quotes from
number of letters. Hundreds of
such letters, he asserts, have been re-
ceived. One letter was froi-- L. ]. Pet
tijohn, of Dodge City, secretary of
state-elect. 1t declared that an adj

Appeals for Relief.
Governor Capper has appealed to
the federal trade commission, the food
administration and to members of con-
gress for relief. In letter to mem
bers of congress, the governor said:

JEWS HEAVY SUFFERERS
Ike GiIbcrg Tells Sunday School of
Their Hard Lot in Russia

Ike Gilhers made an address Sum
day morning to the mems class of the
First Baptist Sunday School. His
speech was an appeal for the Jewish
relief fund. 'rhe Jews" he said,
shave been the greatest sufferers in
the war stricken countries. In Russia,
Poland and Austria, vast numbers of
them are homeless. Three and half
million non-combatant Jews have died
from starvation and persecution. In
all the dealings between Germany and
Russia, the Jews have borne the brunt
Of the suffering. Many of them have
now no means of livelihood. What
implements of agriculture and indus
trial production which they possessed
have been either destroyed by the war
or carried off by the German invaders.
What they need most is money enough
to re-establish themselves in some
kind Of labor. in order that they may
be enabled to make their own living"
Gilberg sketched the history of the
prosecutions of the Jewish people in
their relations to European politics
He explained that every cent given
to the relief fund was to be used for
relief work, and that all expenses in
CURED in the distribution of the mon
ey was to be paid by private subscrip-
lions outside of the general fund for
