Farmers
 to Store Wheat
 Crop on the Farm

Oklahoma City, Okla, May 29-- Farmers are advised to prepare imme- diately to store this years wheat crop on their farms, in a resolution adopt ed by representatives of all the wheat growing counties of the state in ses- sion here. A committee headed by A. B. Campbell of Geary, was appointed to confer with bankers of the state to work out plan of financing the crop until it can be marketed.
 John A. Whitehurst, president of the state board of agriculture, who presided at the meeting stated:
 "It will be necessary to store the crop on the farm this year not only because of impending shortage of cars to move the crop to market, but also because prices early in the mar ket season certainly will be far less than the cost of production. Prices will be low because of the low rate of foreign exchange and because of jug gling with the market by foreign buy CTS i"
 The resolution adopted declares "an emergency exists which threatens the economic and financial stability of our state and demands the united effort and cooperation of he railroad companies, the grain producers, the country elevator owners, landlords and the entire banking system of Ok lahoma, including the state and na- tional banks whether in the grain section or not, and especially the ac- tive co-operation of the officials and the federal reserve bank of the Tenth district"
 The wheat crop was estimated this year at 33,00O,000 bushels.

ability to pay would be rather absurd. Of more importance is the arrange ment said to have been reached at Hythe for linking the German indem- nifty with the debt of France to the allies, so that if Germany did not pay then neither need France. The Lon don Daily Mail sees the point when it says that this arrangement "offers a guaranty against vicarious generosity by our politicians at the expense of France" But the "super-creditor" is the United States, and there is an unconcealed desire to have the Ger man indemnity likewise linked to the payment of the entente's debts to the United States in order to interest American capital in squeezing as much money as possible out of Ger many. It is a clever device for creat- ing vested interest so widely diff fused as to be proof against any pos sible future demand for revisioin in the interest of justice and humanity.

HOW OIL SWINDLER DOWN IN TEXAS GOT
 $45,OOO IN DOODLE
Ten Years for Man Who Worked Lost Purse
 Scheme

Fort Worth, Tex, May 29.-E. J. Ward, who, with Charles Gerber, is alleged to have swindled Frank Norfleet wealthy ranchman of Hale Center, Tex, out of $45,0G0 in an oil stock jobbing scheme several months ago, has just been found guilty and sentenced to 10 years in the penitentiary. Gerber is still to estried on similar charge.
 Of the many swindle games that have been practiced in Texas since the big oil boom was started more than two years ago, none was per hars quite as bold and ingenious as that which Ward and Gerber are said to have perpetrated upon Nor fleet. It was accompanied by old time bunco tricks, gun play and oth- CT spectacular features.
 The first act of the scene was laid in one of the principal hotels in Dal- las. Norfleet was spending a few days at the hostelry when he hap. pened to meet well-dressed, busi- ness-like man in the lobby. They were sitting upon a couch discussing crops and cattle when the stranger |\oicked up a pocketbook that was ly- ing by his side. The two men eX- amined the contracts and found that it contained several hundred dollars in bills. The name of the owner was also found on a card in the pocket book. An examination of the regis ter showed that the loser was stop ping at the hotel. The two men

 Sure Thing" Is Proposed.
 The man who was the owner of the pocket t-book in appreciation of it's return offered to let Norfleet and the other man in on "sure thing'' oil stock proposition. Norfleet held off, and the stranger put up the money for him, just to show his gratitude and good faith. This osten- sible investment yielded Norfleet big returns. Other similar investments were made. Then the proposition was made to Norfleet that he raise all the money he could and they would add to the pot and all make killing.
 By this time Norfleet was certain that he was on the high road to an enormous fortune and that his two new-found friends had an almost uncanny knowledge of the oil stock market. He found no difficulty in raising S45,OO0 which he turned over to the two men for the purchase of certain active stocks. The alleged swindlers then disappeared. Nor fleet got suspicious and got on their trail. He found them in a room in hotel in Fort Worth. At the point of a pistol he demanded the return of his money. Ward and Gerber got down on their knees and begged him to spare their lives; they insisted that they did not intend to make ! way with his money and that it would be returned to him if he would give them chance to go out and get it.
 Norfleet was out-talked He re- tented. The men left the hotel and again disappeared. Norfleet placed detectives on their tracks and they were both finally found in town in California. They were arrested but made every possible legal resist anoe against being returned to Texas.
