IRISH COURTS
 EXTEND AREA
 OF OPERATION

DUBLIN, Aug. 6 (by Associated Press ).-The Sim Fein courts in Ire land continue to extend the area and nature of their operations. Among the cases tried have been those of libel and slander, of judicial separation of the unhappily married, and of seduc- tion. These were on the civil side. On the criminal side all sorts of offenses are tried. As rule the persons charged think it safer to turn up and take their chance of punishment. But in most cases they do not get any option in the matter In 8 case in County Clare the person charged was a local magistrate, accused of trespass. He ignored the summons and refused to recognize the jurisdiction of the Sim Fein court. The volunteers cap- tured him and carried him off to an unknown destination and the military are now guarding his house.
 The Sligo asylum committee is real radical on Sim Fein. It has decided that the Sim Fein flag shall be per manently flown over the asylum. They have vested in the Irish volunteers the task of conveying 1unatics. to the instl- tuition, and left the power of commit ting unatics to the Sim Fein arbitra- tion assisted by local doctor.
 The Kerry county council has de- cided to refuse to insert advert1se- ments in local papers unless they agree to publish reports in the Irish language of the councils proceedings.

CARS READY 70 MOVE KANSAS
 WHEAT CROP

TOPEKA, Aug. (by Associated Press) An increase in the number of cars made available for the ship ment of wheat ito the market is af fording some relief to Kansas far mers in the problem of marketing their grain, according to state off cials and bankers interested in the wheat movement.
 Although there not yet enough cars to move all the wheat. and many cars promised by the interstate com merce commission have not arrived. and railroad officials are unable to give any definite assurance as to when they will arrive, the car short age is not so desperate now as it has been in the past two years
 Officials of the state board of agri culture estimate that there arc still stored on Kansas farms 22,O0O,OOO bushels of last years wheat crop, and an additional 8,0OO,OOO bushels of last years wheat crop in Kansas eleva- tors. A perceptible movement of this "hold-over crop" is now reported by the state board of agriculture.
 There remains, however, the vast ly greater problem of moving this years wheat crop variously estimat- ed at 11O,OOo,OO0 to 135,00O,O 900 bush els to the great milling and export centers.
 Bankers are vitally concerned in the wheat movement problem. Ac cording to J. R. Anspaugh, secretary of the Kansas State Bankers Asso citation, bankers have $65,0O00,00O tied up in loans on crops awaiting mar keting. Many of these loans are long overdue, and the prospects are tn" the amount involved in crop loans will reach s1O0,0OO,OOO with the ripen, ing of the present wheat crop.
 Some relief has been obtained, MT Anspaugh said, from the recent an nouncemcnt of the federal reserve board that it favored extension of crop loans, and the fact that the fed eral reserve banks had been author ized to accept wheat paper from mem- Der banks or from other banks through correspondents.
 Railroad officials have warned the farmers of their inability to move the new wheat crop promptly and urged them to make arrangements to hold if on farms properly stacked or in bins

SHIPPING BILL
 DENOUNCED IN
 ENGLISH PAPER

LONDON, Aug. 6 (by Associated Press) The Jones bill, characterized as Americas bid for shipping su- ptemacy," is denounced by the ship ping expert of the Sunday Observer as "retaliatory and discriminatory"
 He delares that the war has taught other nations the importance of own ing mercantile marine and that jealousy has been aroused through out the world by the ability and magnificence" of the British mercan- tile establishment. "In two coun- tries,' he asserts, "in particular, is a feeling of bitter jealousy against our mercantile marine. These two countries are France and the United States
 . The writer declares that there is nothing to which foreigners can ob- ject in the principal provision of the Jones bill insofar as it is intended to coordinate the transport resources of the United States whether ocean, coastwise or inland shipping, rail- ways, ports and docks so as to form one immense undertaking to force American export trade into the holds of American ships. He says, however, that some of the clauses of the bill were intended to be discriminatory against Great Bri- tain and Japan. Among these he mentions those which authorize pre- fercntial treatment to American ves- sels in American ports. The insur- ance provisions of the bill, he says, impose the most drastic forms of re- turns, (which are based absolutely upon the methods of the German in- surance companies, against which America herself protested so bitter 1y previous to her entry into the war These have been devised ad- mittedly for the purpose of learning every iota of business transacted by foreign companies with veiw to passing the same on to American concerns. The object of course IS tLat, having this information, the gov ernment may oust the American com pany entirely to assist the British in. surance.
 Tn the same vein is the clause which valves in favor of American insurance companies, the Sherman an- thrust law This is entirely on a par with the methods adopted by the Stripping Board during the war when it 1transpired the confidential in- nation given to the Shipping Board solely for the puprpose of the war was being used to enable American shipping to defeat British shipping after the war.
 we in this country now know that we are to be faced with the most bitter supremacy of the seas that we have ever had to meet. We are in for a big fight, but before Ameri- ca can win the fight she must create a national feeling for a mercantile marine. She must prepare to pay considerably higher freight and insur aIce rates on all she imports and ex ports and she must be willing to fore go profits on her shipping enterprises for many years. The person who is most willing to feel the pinch of Amer ica's ambitions will be the American exporter

KANSAS FARMERS MAY
HAVE To HOLD WHEAT
Railroad Men Warn Them Of I'm
pending Shortage of Cars for
Handling 1t.
by Associated Press to Every Evenin 70

f"
Hutchinson, Kans., July 13.-Kansas
wheat growers have been warned by con-
ferrees at meeting of railroad men, farm
ers and bankers that they may have to
hold 80 per cent OF the new crop of grain
IN stacks or bins on their farms, because
of lack of transportation TO the mills.
There Is vast amount of grain from last
years crop still waiting to be moved.
Since the conference, in response to the
appeal directed to the Interstate Com
merce Commission, the commission has
wired Secretary j. G. Mohler, Of the State
board of Agriculture, that IA 500 cars will
be sent to the mid-we { states. II has been
estimated that it would take $4,000 cars
to move the wheat from last years crop
still remaining in country elevators and
on Kansas farms. The states immediate
need is $4,000 cars TO adequately handle
the situation, Secretary Mohler said. He
has received word that Kansas is to get
III 900 cars.
When the present wheat harvest is
over, Kansas bankers will have approxi-
mately Sl00, 100000 tiled up" in 1919
and 1920 crops. OF this amount the bank
ers have advanced sos, 900 900 up to the
present time, on crops that have not been
harvested. These were figures given by
j. X. Anspaugh, secretary of the Kansas
State Bankers Association, at the con-
ference. "The security is good but the
money is hard to get. It will strain every
resource TO get through safely" said Mr.
Anspaugh.
Even the possibility of getting the grain
was anything but hopeful. be-
cause of coal shortage in W heat country.
