Don't Starve the Scientists
Department of Agriculture Genius Serves Us at

Secretary Meredith his speech before the American
Bankers Association told the plain truth about the mig
gard salaries that the United States Government pays
its scientists The situation is nothing short of national
disgrace and if it is permitted to continue will result in
national disaster.

Some Disputed Questions

Coal is OF vegetable origin. When vegetable
matter accpmulates under water II undergoes
a slow process of decomposition. Peat, the
terial so often found underlying swampy tracts
In north temperate zones, represents the first
stage In the conforming process and the other
stages are obtained by the burial of these vege-
table deposits under great loads of sediment
when they are subjected to pressure and at
times to heat also.
The name of the Royal House of Great Brit
ain is Windsor. This was made so by royal de-
cree In 1915. The name of King Georges family
formerly was Victim on his fathers side. and
Guelph on the side of his grandmother, Queen
Victoria.
The Bureau of Immi grafton says that in Au-
gust, 1920, about $4,000 aliens we're admitted
and that $4,000 departed.

This fellow was not my ideal sort of man.
but I like him just the same.
DO you think that Twill ever learn to like
another man as well as did him? Y.
You probably will learn to like several men
well as you do this one. You see you do not
really love him OF you could not say that he was
not your ideal. We only love that one man who
most nearly reaches our ideal. or course, our
ideal may change with years and experience.

NEW YORK, Sept. Is. - Trading on the stock exchange today came to sudden halt few minutes after noon because of the Wall street ex- plosion. The governors of the eX- change ordered immediate suspension for the day and similar action was taken by the curb market. Oils and rails were the outstanding features of the brief trading period but the list almost as a whole promised to devel- op into the broadest and most active movement of recent days.
 Extreme advances of 1 to 3 points were scored by Mexican and related oils Bhippings gained 1 to and steels and equipments about as much

 Only one rate-seven per cent-was quoted for call money and time funds were unchanged. Moderate reactions from yesterdays rally were shown by British and French exchange.

small mines and leased properties in the state would be compelled to close. The welfare of the large com panies would be materially and ad- versely affected, it was added. The protests were made in the face of a declaration by counsel for the carriers that a provision of the Cummins-E -Esch bill gave the interstate commerce con- mission to increase intrastate rates when those rates conflicted with in- | terstate rates.
 Curry Uphods Mines
 The first protest was made by J. E. Curry, secretary of the Arizona branch of the American Mining Con- gress, speaking in behalf of the mines l in general.
 He laid especial stress on the as sertion that while rates increased in specific instances might be justified, a blanket raise would be unwarranted and unfair. Other speakers against the increases took the same position.
 DoweIl Makes Protest
 G. H. Dowell, general manager of the Copper Queen branch of the Phelps Dodge corporation, protested particularly against the increase in freight rates on ores between Bisbee and Douglas and fluxes between St. PauPs spur and Douglas, where the Copper Queen and Calumet and Ari- zona smelters are located Dowell al so launched a protest with regard to customs smelling. Any increase in freight rates on ores from any mining center to Douglas, he said, must result in closing small mines. Smelling costs, he added, had almost doubled through freight rate raises already in effect and the volume of customs ores had already been cut down.
 Increases Would Do Harm
 C.. M. Colvocorresses, general mana ger of tile Consolidated Arizona Smelling company at Humboldt, cited two specific hauls on which he said that rate increases could not be made without harm. The first was the haul | from Bouse to Humboldt and the sec ond a 30-mile haul of silver ore to
 
 of more than 60 customs ore shippers to the Humboldt smelters, freight rate increase would mean an almost total stoppage of production. Would, Halt Movement
 w. G. Mcbride, general manager of the Old Dominion Mining company, fil- ed two protests. The first was against a proposed increase of from s2.5O a ton tot $3.121a a ton on low grade ores from Bisbee to Globe. He said the present rate was too high, declaring the net value of the ore, including its iron sulphide content, was only $7.55 The proposed rate would take almost half the total value, he said, before any smelting was attempted. Such a tariff, MT. Mcbride said, would halt the movement of low grade ores and concentrates.
