Clean Sweep of
Hoarders Over
u. S. Promised

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Faced
with an ultimatum from American
farmers, who threaten next years
food supply will be materially re-
duced" unless Congress enacts a
sweeping program of legislation to
protect the producer, Federal agents
are preparing to seize vast quantities
of stored foodstuffs this week.
Food worth $1O,OOO,O00 will be
dumped into wholesale markets to
force down prices in every section
of the country, beginning tomorrow,
under plans formulated by district at
torneys and officials of the Depart
ment of Justice.
Other Seizures Expected.
Two million dollars worth of but
ter, eggs and sugar, libeled yesterday,
in st. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago,
Canton, Ohio, and Detroit, will be sold
first.
Food worth more millions will be
seized this week, under evidence now
being agthered. Biggest seizures are
expected in Boston, New York, New
Orleans, and Chicago.
Federal officials are continuing to
collect evidence of boarding in many
cities, assisted by the local price-fix-
ing committees organized by state
food administrators at the request of
Attorney General Palmer.
AS soon as the food can be con-
demned through court action, it is the
plan of Attorney General Palmer to
dump it on the market.
Investigations have been somewhat
held back because of the magnitude
of the task of examining books of
innumerable storage plants. Seizures
in New York have teen expected for
week. Action will not be much
longer delayed, officials said today.

All these figures must be consider
ably inflated to obtain the current
years capital and income, but the in
crease would certainly be biggest in
the case of the United States, which
could boast at least treble its pre-
war wealth.
The thrifty habits Of the French
nation were reflected, said Prof.
Stamp, in a capital of $1,515 per head,
while Italy and Austria had only $64O
and $605 respectively. He computes
Japan's capital at $12,OOO,O00,0O0, or
on a per capita basis, 1920 capital
and $50 income per head Of popula-
ton. The capital and income Of
Spain was probably as low as any il
Europe, the income per head not eX
ceeding $55.
The Greeneville daily sun. (Greeneville, Tenn.) 1918-1920, 1919-08-19

On per capita basis also, America
comes out easily the richest country
in the world. The capital per head
of the population, according to Prof.
Stamp was, before the war:

CLYDESDALE TRUCKS

J. b. Crockett, treasurer of the

Of Clydesdale Trucks, and also presi-
dent Of the Clyde Cars company, New

belieces that the motor truck is going
to prove the biggest factor in solving
the transportation problem in every
large city throughout the world. Lon
don was the first city in the world
to change from horsedrawn buses to
motor buses. The London General
Omnibus. company put in their FIRST
installation of motor buses ten years
ago. They finally decided to build a
truck Of their own. The London Cen
cral Omnibus truck became famous
throughout the world.
1t is interesting to note that the
Clydesdale truck is practically dupli.
cate of the L. G. o. truck. In fact, a
number of the L. G. o. company's en-
gineers are now employed in the Clyde
factory.
In recent years, this trend toward
motor bus transportation has been
even more marked. Fifth Avenue
busses on the streets of New York
are famous. And now from the oppo-
site side of the world, comes a report
that Toxic is installing one of the
most comprehensive motor bus trans
portation systems in the world. An
initial order of 100 Clydesdale trucks
is now being shipped to Toxic to be
put into this service.

CITY PLAYGROUND
FUTURE UNDECIDED

There will be no east end play
ground on South Twenty-second street
next summer unless council appropri-
ates money for the purpose.
If the playground is left one sum-
mer without caretaker, and if the
tennis courts and the baseball dia-
monds are not used, the grounds will
be ruined, according to Lyman H. Ly-
bout. director of athletics at Garfield
school, who for five years has been
director at the east end play ground.
THE tennis courts and the baseball
diamonds must have constant care"
said he. After one year OF idleness
the tennis courts and the baseball
diamonds will be luxuriant with weeds
and they will not be fit to play on.
1t would cost more to repair the play
ground after a year of idleness than
it would to open it this spring.
There is great deal of tennis ma
terial that may be ruined after a year
of cold storage and if these are ruin
ed it would be a loss Of great deal
Of money for the city that it could
have saved"
Lyboult should know what he Is talk
ing about, for he has worked at the
playground for many years. He sell
dom took a vacation to play tennis
or baseball during hours.

ESSEX CAR ATTRACTS
ATTENTION AT SHOWS

"The Essex, although 1t is the only
car to be displayed at the Automo-
bile shows for the first time this year,
is new only in name as it has been
undergoing the most rigid tests in the
hands of its builders for the past two
years." said Glen McConaha, Friday.
When the Essex first appeared like
gray ghost on the roads around De-
troit, it earned for itself the title OF
the mystery car" because of its
seemingly miraculous power and en-
durance and the fact that even in that
motor-wise city no one could recog-
nize it's make.
Clad in a mud-stained coat of fac
tory gray, with it's bonnet tightly seal
ed and with no name plate to reveal
i it's identity, for months it haunted
/ the outlying paths most used by fac
| tory testers. No challenge was ever
refused no matter how great the odds,
and many an amateur sportsman or
| budding factory speed demon" low
cred their colors to that mystery
car"
| All cars, regardless of size-looked
alike to the oil covered pilot Of the
gray wizard which seemed to have
nothing to do but loaf over the roads
| in search of new adversaries to
dust" The news of the cars prowess
spread from the testers to the factory
executives who, however, despite ev-
| cry effort were unable to solve the
mystery.
! 1.-THE Essex was not built for speed,
! however" said McConaha. Comfort,
reliability, economy in upkeep were
the first considerations. 1t was built
! to fill the need for car of the high
est quality which should still be light
in weight and moderate in price
"The Essex. at present, is being

tail as the car can and will talk for

Sanders joined the Yankees last

remained with the New York club
to the end of the season, but did little
work. Carpenter was never with the

DePauw Team Lays Claim
to College Championship

Well. look who's here! The De-
PAW basketball team now claims the
championship of Indiana colleges after
winning from all the teams in the
state but Purdue and losing to them
by only one point. "early in the sea-
son and on the Purdue floor, as the

play against DePauw again and SO the

OF course nobody cares how much
DePauw blows off about champion.
ships but the statement that they
have defeated every team in the state
except Purdue" Is a poor one to make.
There are other schools in the state
besides the ones that DePauw has de.
feated this season and even other
schools than those on the DePauw
schedule. For instance, Earlham.
Earlham has been defeated by the
Wabash basketball team and has won
from all the other colleges that they
have played. 1t would be wise for De-
Paw to schedule a game with the
Quakers before claiming state cham
piOnship.

the game in the last few minutes for
having four personal fouls called on
him

No referee had been secured and
Coach Eckel of Richmond and Moore
Of Connersville took turns in officia-

The Quakers put up harder fight
than in any previous game and on a
larger floor they would have come out

gument as to whether the game was
not ended two minutes sooner than it
should have been. The game ended
when Connersville was in the lead.

The game was so easy for the ALL

Bradfield and Simmons of the win

basket, and Brehm was the only man
on the high school team to score a
goal.

Yankee Flinging Force Cut Down
as Training Season Approaches

ceive contracts shortly, but about ten
will be turned back to the minor
leagues, the New York club simply
signing them to protect title and to
use them in deals. Several of the
pitchers whose services are controlled
by the Yankees have been the clubs
property for some time, but were not
with the team last season. In this
list are Markle, Vance, Triple. Brady
and Piercy. 1t is extremely doubtful
that any of these boxmen will be TAX
en- on tho training trip. Monroe, Bern
hardt and Nelson, the latter from the
Memphis club, may also be listed as
doubtful, though Higgins has not
made known the pitchers whom he
will take south. Hank Robinson. who
quit the club last August. will not be
retained, it is understood.
AS to the twelve who are likely to
go south it is possible to do some
predicting. The list of positive GER
tainties includes Shawkey, Shore, Leo
nard, Thormahlen, Mogridge, Schnei-
der, Fisher and Quinn. all Of them
veterans whose capabilities are well
known. 1t is possible that Allen Rus
sell. the side arm spitballer, may be
used in trade, but If the deal does
not materialize, he viii be among the
southern tourists. Lefty ODoul, OF
the San Francisco club is due for a
tryout this spring, and Higgins may
desire to look over Alex Ferguson,
who was the star of the Eastern
league last season. Ray Heating and
Joe Finneran may also be in the train
ing party at Jacksonville.

that he favored giving him the free

The directors Of the former local
club will not accept franchise in the
proposed league from expressions
heard. They have gone on record
against joining any league, which in

no change of heart. Mahoney's pro-
posal to grant Hunter the free use of
the park as an inducement to profess

with much favor and it is believed
that the directors will join with him.
