COMMISSIONER COHEN
WILL warn TOBACCO men
Believes Big Increase In Tobacco
Crop Would Mean Rum to
Kentucky Planters.

Frankfort, KY, March 22-Commls-
sioner of Agriculture Matt S. Cohen
will call a meeting of tobacco ware
house men and growers in Lexington
March 20, specifically for the purpose
of taking action to head off the con-
templated so per cent, increase in the
Burley tobacco acreage this year. Tn
der the conditions the commissioner
believes it will spell ruin. In some
sections of the Bluegrass tobacco land
is being rented for 500 and some
times 5000 the acre. An enormous pro
duction might break the market to
such an extent that not only lessees at
such extravagant prices. but others
would lose hope of profit on their
crops.
The warehousemen, it is expected,
will organize and adopt uniform reg
ulations.

The BARROW UNIT
SAILED FROM EUROPE
ON LAST THURSDAY
Lieut.. Col. Barrow Cables Son That
Unit Sailed For U. ). From Eng.
land on Thursday-Informa-
ton Is Official.

Rumors concerning the embarka-
tion Of the Barrow Unit, Base Hos
pital Unit No. 40, from England were
confirmed last night in a statement
given out by Dr. Voolfolk Barrow, of
Lexington, who had received cable
gram from Lieutenant Colonel David
Barrow, commanding the Hospital
Unit, in which he says that the unit
practically complete, sailed from Liv-
erpool on the Aquatania Thursday
This is the first official information
about the return of the unit to the
United States. A cablegram was re-
ceived Thursday by friends In LexIng-
ton from Len Shouse, Jr., in which he
stated that he had been ordered to
France, probably indicates that a
number of men, possibly Of the enlist
ed personnel will see further service
overseas with the American arm
les of occupation.
The unit had recently been station
ed in an old manor house at Saris-
bury Court, Hants, England. The
most recent letter received in Lex
infton, was one to Joseph W. Porter
of Lexington from Major Charles c..
Carr, of the unit, written while they
were stationed at Salisbury Court and
in which he states that about 10 offlc-
ers, 20 nurses and 100 enlisted men
will be returned to this country I'M
der Colonel Barrow. From his letter
it is presumed that the majority of
the doctors, nurses and enlisted per-
sonnet of the unit have been trans
ferred to other organizations or have
received orders to report to various
units with the armies of occupation
He also states that Major Nicely
monds has been promoted to Lieu
tenant Colonel.

UNLOCKED SAFE IS
FOIL TO BURGLARS

Burglars made a determined and
unsuccessful attempt to break open
a safe in the office of the Ed Won
Tobel Lumber Company about 1890
last Tuesday morning. The joke is
Oh the burglars, although Mr.. Won
1obel can't see it that way, for the
safe was not locked. Not aware of
this fact, the marauders took a ham
mer and smashed the lock to such
an extent that Mr.. Won Tobel himself
was unable to open it, and it was
necessary to burn out a portion of
the door before he could get at the
contents.
The burglars made entrance to the
office by removing the glass from a
side door. They took an automatic
pistol from another safe, which was
also unlocked; but. thanks to their
bungling burgling. no money was Sc
cured. The burglars were at work
at the time the fire alarm was turned
in for a smoldering mattress in a
house near the corner Of Third and
Ogden. as several persons heard the
blows of the hammer upon the safe
door, but attributed the noise to the
fire. People passing doubtless fright
ened the burglars away.-TLas Vegas
