FARM OUTPUT DROP
MAY RAISE PRICES
Farmers Dissatisfied, BIaks-
lee Tells Senators,
Citing Report.

Decreased farm production next year
and consequent increase in the cost of
living. due to dissatisfaction of farmers.
was predicted before the Senate post
office committee today by James L.
Blakslee, fourth assistant postmaster
general More than 10000 answers to
100000 questionnaires sent to farmers,
ne said, indicate condition "disquiet-
ing and portentous of disastrous con-
sequences"
A report summarizing the contents
OF the farmers answers. proposed nv
George l.. Wood, superintendent Of
the division of rural mails, was read
to the committee by Mr. Blakslee.
Declaring that the farmers of the
country were tired of receiving low
returns for long, hard periods Of toll
while city dwellers lived in ease and
comfort with high wages and short
hours. the report said that many of
the replies received indicated that
hundreds of farmers have resolved to
either. quit the farm entirely or
gre1siy decrease production next year.
Complaint Of Farmers.
Complaint is made in a majority Of
high prices paid by consumers as
compared with the low return to the
farmer. indicating an entirely dis
proportionate profit for the middle
man. Many farmers, the report said,
draw comparisons between "the hours
of labor required Of the farmer and
his compensation with those of the
urbanite. of which the farmer Bit
terly complains. setting forth the soft
and luxurious living of the latter as
compared with the hard and bare liv-
ing of the farmer. who is no longer
willing to toll and produce for the
striker, the prof1teer and the short
hours, high wage man."
A comment by a member of the COM
mittee that the replies seemed to be
from a bunch of bolshevists,"
Mr. Blakslee replied that such a state
of mind undoubtedly was indicated,
and that in his opinion the situation
was extremely serious.
Farm Labor Hard to Get.
Inability to obtain farm labor was
indicated in the Wood report to be
one of the chief complaints of the
farmers. Declaring that the shortage
of farm labor was causing great an
tagonism on the part of the producer
toward the city dweller." the report
said that the great demand in the
cities for labor with high prices and
short hours is driving the farm hired
help and the farmers boys and girls to
the city"

PARLEY ON TREATY
AGAIN UNDER WAY

The bipartisan conference on the
peace treaty, seeking a compromise
on the Senate reservations so that
the pact may be ratified, met this
afternoon in the Office of Senator
Lodge. the republican leader.
Upon the outcome of the conference
hangs the procedure for the future
regarding the treaty. If there is the
slightest hope held out that an agree
ment can be reached in the confer
ence, then the bipartisan conference
probably will be continued. But If
there is no hope and the conference is
broken off, then either some other
conference must be attempted, the
treaty must be brought upon the floor
of the Senate, or the deadlock must be
allowed to continue lndenntey.
Believe Motion VIII Prevail.
The belief is strong among some
of the senators, including both re-
publican and democratic, that If a
motion is made to take up the treaty
in open executive session in the Sen
ate it will receive more than ma
jority vote-sufficient to bring the
pact. before it. Once it is again be-
fore the Senate, it is believed that
iiamentary situation that various
proposals for ratification can be made
and passed upon. These proposals
will be voted on until such reserva-
tions are adopted as Will command
a two-thirds vote for ratification of
the treaty. If it is again found i'm
possible to obtain such result. then
an effort will likely be made to send
the treaty back to the President.
which can be done by a majority
vote, with the message that 1t can
not be ratified.
One of the Senate leaders expressed
the opinion today that if the treaty
is again taken up in open session the
old cloture rule adopted last session
will prevail and that it will. have to
be considered under that rule. The
treaty is the same as that which was
before the Senate then, and the rule
was explicit that it must be consid-
cred with limited debate until finally
disposed Of:
Such a ruling by the Senate would
be disappointment to the so:called
..b;tter-enders,' who are planning to
talk at length if the treaty is again
laid before the Senate.

FIRE DESTROYS VIENNA'S
new SCHOOL BUILDING

VIENNA, Va, January 80 Especially
The new public school building here,
recently completed at cost of $4,000,
was destroyed by fire early this morn
ing. The fire apparently originated in
the room of the principal, Mrs E. j.
Haight. Mrs. Haight has been i'll and
her room had not been used since the
Christmas holidays.
Pupils attending the school lost
practically all of their books, and the
teachers records also were destroyed.
None of the school furniture or prop
erty was saved.
Herbert Williams. chairman of the
school board, said today the building
was fully insured. A new building,
considerably larger and with an au-
ditorium, will be erected and ready
for occupancy before the opening OF
the fall term of school.
The old school building. the public
library and the Sunday school room of
the Presbyterian church probably
will be used as classrooms, and it
was announced today that all grades
will be reopened Monday.

TURNS TRIAL INTO

Defense Counsel Has "Pupip'
Give N. Y. AssembIymen
History of Creed.

ALBANY, N. Y. January 80 (by
the Associated Press).-The assem-
bly, chamber in which the five sus-
pended socialist members are being
tried for disloyalty today became a
schoolroom for the teaching of So
ciaIism.
Seated in a semicircle around Sey-
mour Stedman, defense counsel, and
Algernon Lee, treasurer of the So
c1alist state committee. a witness.
the assembly judiciary committee
heard read into the record what may
be described as "a general history
Of socialism from 1864 to 1920."
In quizzing his pupil" Stedman

movements. and a history of the de-
veiopment of socialism in Europe,
with special reference to Russia.

Lee described the workings of in
ternationales he had attended and
defined bolsheviks as the majority"
and menshiviks as the minority"
He denied that the former could be
throw government by force and the
latter as those who did not.
AIlege Sabotage Preached.
An attempt to show that sabotage
in munition factories was a weapon
which socialists were virtually in
vited by their party to employ in its
program of continuous, active and
public opposition to the war" was
made yesterday. Counsel for the
proclamation and war program adopt
ed at the st. Louis convention of the
socialist party on April Z, 1917. one
day after the United States entered
the world conflict, in which workers
were urged to oppose the war through
demonstrations, mass petitions and
all other means within our power"
The prosecution also read into the
record denunciation of the war in the
proclamation as one caused by the
treachery and trickery of the capital
iStic class through their representa-
tives in Congress"
Finally committee counsel brought
out that the 'anti-sabotage clause" in
the party's constitution. of which the
prosecution asserted socialists for
merly had boosted" had been strick-
en- out at the same convention.
Accuses Two Assemblymen.
Frank Wasserman, a New York
lawyer. who testified that in a debate
on socialism, with Assemblyman Au-
gust Claessens, the latter had called
the federal Constitution "a mere
scrap of paper and that the people
when they got control under a So
cialist government would take things
by force"
Wasserman also testified Claessens
had SAID 1.-The flag does not count: the
red flag is the only flag that amounts
to anything. the flag of brotherhood;
and the workingman has no country"
According to Wasserman, Assem-
blyman Charles Solomon. another de-
fendant, had asserted in a private
discussion on a street corner in
Brooklyn, that in the assembly
chamber he had stated he was a boil
shevist. Solomon, the witness said.
also told him that socialists were con-
ducting Sunday school classes in the
Brownsville section so that children
may be ready for the revolution"
