No, Anti Trust Law
Affect Farmers
Their Cooperative Organizations
Are Exempt. Government
Not to Notice Campaign for
Withholding Crops From
- Market

Washington, Nov. 2T. - Because
farmers cooperative organizations are
exempt from application of anti-trust
laws the department OF Justice, has
given no consideration TO the cam
paign for the Withholding OF crops
from the markets until prices ad-
vance, it was said tonight by Frank
K. Nebeker, special assistant to the
attorney general in charge of anti
trust prosecutions
Mr.. Nebeker's explanation OF the
department attitude followed the re-
cent statement OF Charles s. Barrett.
president of the National Farmers
Union, that he understood that fed
eral agents were attempting to OBJ
tain evidence for prosecutions in Kan
sas, Iowa and other Middle Western
states.
The Clayton antitrust act Mr. Ne
beker said, expressly provides that
agricultural organization, not having
capital stock or conducted for profit.
can not be construed as conspiracies
in restraint of trade. Withholding Of
crops from market for personal profit,
Mr.. Nebeker asserted. probably would
not be. held. as organization profits.
Mr. Neoeker also explained that the
limitations on the appropriation act
for the enforcement of the antitrust
laws would seem TO preclude action
against the farmers inasmuch as the
act specifies that no part of the ap-
preparations shall be expended for the
prosecution, Of farmers who cooperate
to obtain fair and reasonable price
for their products. The construction
as to, what Is a fair price for the va
Erious farm products, Mr.. Nebeker de-
clared, would, however. probably
govern in any specific case that. might
arise as it would seem that since the
present laws forbid prosecution
where the effort is to obtain a fair
price conversely attempts to obtain
unfair and unreasonable prices would
be contrary TO law,

JUNEAU, Alaska, Oct. s.-Outbound
passengers on the Yukon River steam
er Seattle III, frozen in at Rampant,
Alaska, may have to make the 275-mile
journey to Fairbanks overland over
rough mountain trails, if efforts to
transport them by water fail, accord
ing to reports reaching here to-day.
Among the passengers, it is believed.
are q number Of women and children.
Old-timers here say the trip will be
almost impossible before November,
when it is expected there will be suffi-
clent snow for shedding.
Two steamers, the Alaska and the
Yukon, both carrying passengers, are
reported frozen in at Tanana, but are
trying to break way through the
slush ice to take off passengers of the
Seattle III. If the passengers can be
brought to Tanana, it is believed. it
will De possible to send them to Fair
banks in small motor boats and thence
over the trail to the coast. Most of
them are bound for the United States.
Food supplies are said to be available
at both Rampant and Tanana.

Craig's Warning Unhecded
as Board of Estimate
Adds Several Hundred
thousands to Figures
Must Be Cut Millions
Work on Tentative Draft To
BE Completed Tonight;
Sharp Clashes at Hearing

The budget committee of the Board
of Estimate will complete its work
on the tentative budget for 1921 to-
night There are still many depart
mental estimates to consider for cut
ting purposes, and the tim is all too
snort IN the opinion of the members
OF the committee. The Board of Edu-
cation budget will como up for con-
sheraton to-day and big fight is
expected on it. Unless some way is
found to cut down the enormous re-
guests of the educational department
the tentative budget is likely to run as
nigh as. $370,0OO,000 or $38O,OO0, 900
Drastic measures are looked for in
dealing with the educational budget, in
order TO keep the tentative draft of the
budget down to s345,0OO 900, the maxi
mum figure at which Comptroller Craig
has said the city could hope to bring
the 1871 figures within the tax con-
stitutional limitation. The final bud
get as adopted October 81. will have
to be below $300,000,00O to accomplish
this end.
Many Sharp Tits
The Comptroller literally threw I'M
his hands at the meeting of the bud

clared that 1--WE are busted" when mo-

back several hundred thousand dollars
IN the tantative budget, but the sums
were allowed
rms same process Of first taking out
and then putting back requested an-
preparations seemed to prevail at yes
terday's meeting and caused MANY
sharp sharp Tits among the Mayor, the
COMPTROLLER, Aldermanic President La
Guardia and the borough presidents.
Inc latter are all members OF the
budget committee and the Board Of
Estimate and some of them did not
take kindly to wholesale reductions in
their requests for next year. Mayor
Hylan and Borough President Curran
OF Manhattan clashed repeatedly. The
suggestion was made that despite the
face that the Legislature Increased the
salaries of the borough presidents
from $500 to $4,000 they were not
bound to take it and could vote to
forego the increase. A vote was taken
and all the borough presidents excent
Borough President Curran voted for
the increase. MIR. Curran declined to
vote.
"Why don't you come out in the open
and vote frankly'" shouted the Mayor.

Unless the Present State

LONDON, Oct. (By The Associated
Press) Grey of Fallodon
former ambassador to the United

minister Gazette another long letter
concerning his ideas for solution Of
the Irish situation. The letter was
partly in answer to criticisms .bv for
mer Premier Asquith and others of his
recent proposals and partly in ampli-

The best | can suggest" saws Wis
count Grey, among other things. ..s

point of our policy is our conviction
OF the incapacity Of the British par

They will never agree and one or the

British Parliament.
The indiscrminate and cruel re-

that provoke them, must be STONED or
else the bitterness bere and in ireland

these are stopped there will still be
