WHEAT DROP LAID TO
JUGGLING IN FUTURES
Kansas Governor May Call
Halt in Trading.

TOPEKA. Oct. 25.--Gov Henry j.
Allen announced to-day that he would
propose law TO the next Legislature
TO- prohibit trading in grain futures in
Kansas IL present Investigations of
boards of trade proved that prices OF
wheat and other farm products have
been manipulated.
The Governor tonight turned over
material he has gathered showing the
alleged cause for the drop in the wheat
market 10 G. a. Stephens. special
agent of the Federal Trade Commits
sion, who had come here to consult the
Governor in relation TO the investiga-
ton of the Chicago Board OF Trade
A statement oFwhat the material con-
tains, issued from the Governors Of
flee. says:
The Governor shows that the drop
in wheat was unnatural and doubtless
the result OF manipulation IN wheat
futures. together with the use made
of the free wheat from Canada.
IAN investigation OF the stocks OF
wheat on hand in Chicago. Minneapolis
and Kansas city. the controlling wheat
markets, shows that there has been a
gradual reduction in the amount OF
wheat at these terminal markets during
the months of July, August and Sep
Member and. while the statement for Oc-
tobcr shows a slight increase over Sep
rember. Il Is very much below the re-
serve on hand July !.
For instance. on July the tota'
'tock of wheat al Chicago. Minneapolis
ind Kansas City was S.5fS,1s6 bushels :
August. 3.791.1o4 bushels; September,
3,757.000 bushels: October, 3.a77.715
bushels. While wheat has taken SEN
satonal tumble OF 81 per bushel. there
was a reduction in the stock on hand of
$500, 900 bushels.
Surely, in the face Of these facts, no
Intelligent man will contend 1t was the
law OF supply and demand. because the
price reduced while the stock was de-
creasng."

A "Model' Child Labor Law

Illinois is, one Of the states with a model
child labor law. It is very fine-in print AS a
matter Of fact, in Chicago alone, $4,000 children
are now at work, 1000 more than ever before.
All the labor legislation in the world can
make no difference until3a blow is struck at the
fundamental vice, the profit system. There are
always enough exceptions in every child labor law
to allow the families of the work
ers to save themselves from starvation by
sending the children to work, and the capitalists
are constantly busy holding down wages and
forcing up prices so that it becomes absolutely
necessary for the children to give up school and
go to work. itt,% luSuler hsl

Profit Sharing

report issued by the National Industrial
Conference Board throws a searehlight on the
subject of profit sharing From 1870 to 1896 of
all the profit sharing schemes, 76aS were aband-
oned after average trial Of two to three years.
In the main, profit sharing is a device used
to avoid higher wage scales during high prosper
ity periods, and the enthusiasm for sharing pro-
fits goes down as the profits slip a notch. 1t is
better, to pay the wages in this indirect, form,
with all the bunk that goes with it. and to let
wages alone. In other words, the workers are
given tip to make them bow and scrape more
willingly; but the share of profits added to the
regular wages is, for the most part what is need
ed to bring the wages up to a living standard

Of government is the best conceivable. Others,
who argue that the so-colled constitutional gov
ernment is fake and fraud, designtd to dupe
the workers while it serves only the bosses, are
glad to see the veil torn away from the pretense of

the most gullibe worker to keep on being deceived

Middle Class Union
PAGE .

The middle class union" idea, started in
England, is going the rounds. However, the Bel
gans are not so hypocritical about their inten-
tions as the English. The Belgian Middle Class
Union is being organized in IL departmets, cor
responding to various public-utility industries
and training is being given for strike-breakig
service.
An application was made, little while back,
for incorporation under the New York laws, of .
Middle Class Union No doubt the art of strike
breaking will be developed in this country as high
ly as anywhere else, or more so. But strike-break
ing is not of much account when the workers act
on general class basis.
Particularly is the propaganda being direct
ed against strikes by pubic-utility workers. Why
should these workers, the public slaves, be on a
different basis from others? It is very easy after
all, to declare any industry public utility ull-
der emergencies, as was done during the war. And
then all the workers will find themselves public
slaves. One United Working Class Union is what
is needed.

Better American Federation"

Z In California, as part Of the nationwide
movement of the employers against the union
shop and against any legislative restrictions in
dealing with the workers, has been organized
the "Better American Federation" The pro-
gram is: to have the age Of compulsory educa-
ton reduced from 16 to IA; Ito abolish the S-hr.
day; to abolish the minimum wage law for
women; to get rid of the law against night
work for women and for mine-workers, because
it "dehies them equal opportunity" to abolish
collective bargaining.
A highly organized and heavily financed
open shop movement is now established in ,l6
cities, yfe M
I It doesn't sound "loyal'' or patriotic, . but
somebody will have to take up the fight against
"Americanization Maybe we shall soon be
hearing more of loyalty by the American work
ers to the working class Of this country and Of
the world.

price Of beef during the last year.
Mr.. Bliss says that the best arguement
in favor of the silo is the fact that they
are increasing more rapidly where they
are thiekest.
The oldest and most common type OF
silo in Tennessee says Mr.. Bliss is tbs
ordinary wood silo. While the WOOD
silo cannot be clsssed among the perm
anent types, it has given satisfaction
where properly constructed. The silC
is no better than the wood that is in il
and the farmer should not expect il &c
last any longer than any other wooC
building. A silo that will stand up anc
give good service for 10 years, or ever
less, is good investment. Rather
than be without = silo this winter with

Castings should carry as much air in
summer as in winter. With the advent
of warm weather motorists are again
beginning to wonder what effect, if
any. the hot pavements will have on

by make provision for any expansion
which might result from the heat.
Needless to say these motorists are
wrong. The same pressure should be
used on the hottest summer days as is
used in the dead CT winter, when the
mercury is lowering around the zero
mark.
Experiments recently smade show
that the air pressure varies but slightly
as result of temperature variations.
The pressure of S4x4 tire incfeases

heit to 7S.4 pounds at ITO degrees.
Starting with 70 pounds pressure at
70 degrees the pressure increased to
1853 pounds at ITO degrees. Variations
as slight as these are not considered
dangerously tire experts. Moreover
the motorist would seldom encounter
conditions where the temperature
would flotuate 40 degrees during the
day. Consequently the iron clad rule,

should be rigidly obeved.

prising fact in tire conservation is that
il is better to run over rock in the
roadway than to hit it sharp glancing
