A BREAK IN PRICES OF FOOD
Decline Shown in Chicago on Sugar,
Potatoes and Other Vegetables
Supplies Are Plentiful.

Chicago.-Prices Of some food ne
cessities are skidding downward Po-
tatoes show a drop Of 81 and So a
hundred. Sugar, which quite recently
was reported very scarce at 30 to S5
cents a pound, is now plentiful at
S21.S5 for a. 10O-pouni bag. In smaller
quantities it may be had for p to q
cents, depending upon the locality.
Vegetables of all kinds, Of most ex-
celIent quality are plentiful and the
prices are approaching the earth close
enough for the ordinary person to in
duIge. Il is broadly limited that there
never has been a shortage Of sugar,
but that spectators nave held up i'm
mense stocks and created an artifi-
ciaI famine" while they gathered in
tremendous profits. Whatever the
cause, large supplies Of sugar are now
appearing from some mysterious
source.

NATIONAL TAX BILL is HUGE
Estimates for Last Fiscal Year Were
Exceeded by Payments by 800
Millions.

Washington.-The nations greatest
tax bilI-s5, 41O, 2S4, S74-was collected
during the fiscal year ending June 80.
Official figures showed that the tax
paid in the last twelve months had
exceeded all estimates, congressional
and official, by approximately 300
million dollars, and was nearly rs
per cent larger than the total taxes
paid in either OF the war years Of
1918 or 1919. Collection of this record
breaking assessment cost the govern
ment Sz9, 100000, or about SIS cents
for each 500
Revenues derived from income and
excess profits taxes alone were So
ga, 555, 737, for the twelve months,
which is nearly 1850 million dollars
larger than collection from the same
sources in either of the last two
years.
New York state continued to main
tain its record of leading the nation
as a tax payer. It's tax burden
amounted to $1,416,s3S, PIG. OF this
amount lbs, O97. 4O3 came from the
financial heart Of America-the Wall
street district.

ENGLAND WARNS THE SOVIET
BoisheVist Government Of Russia
Told It Must Make Peace With
Poland at Once.

London.-f soviet Russia continues
her invasion of territory legitimately
belonging to Poland, England will
wage war against Russia with every
means at her disposal
This is the message that has gone to
Foreign Minister Tchitcherin OF the
Soviet government in reply to the pre-
sumptuous" note from Moscow in an
swer to England's proposals for con-
Citation and a resumption of trade
relations
The latest note, it is suthoritatively
given out by one Of Lloyd Georges
closest advisers and man thoroughly
in touch with affairs OF Downing
street, was sent along with the dis
patch of message to Poland ordering
her to request an armfstice with the
red government.
It was admitted by the premier that
Poland had been foolhardy in her at
tack upon Russia, but he added that
the future peace Of all Europe depend
ed upon the integrity OF Poland and
the other newly formed states OF mid
die Europe
The message informed Tchitcherin
that the entente would never permit
contact between the Russian Bolshevi-
XII and the German Independent Social
lists.
It also brushed aside as minor tech
nicalities such things as the compo-
sition or color Of the Polish govern
ment, and made a direct and urgent
plea to the soviet to harken to Pol
and's requests.
It intimated, moreover, that if the
soviet government complied with Eng
las demands, the government would
be recognized, trade relations immedi-
ately restored, and peace re-establish-
ed throughout Europe.
n-and here is the threat-Russia
does not accept England's plea. the en-
tente will look upon it as a challenge
to finish fight, and will take steps to
WI by arms what they cannot win by
diplomacy.
The cabinet has reviewed the situa-
ton from every aspect, and it is I'M
derstOod that it was decided to comply
with Poland's request to the Spa con-
ference. Three hundred airplanes and
aviators Immediately will be sent to
Poland unless the bolsheYist advance
ceases.

MAY INCREASE THE HOUSE
Some States VIII Lose Members I'm
der New Census Unless the
Membership Is Enlarged.

y ashington.-Un1ess the member
ship of the house is increased from
435 to at least 500 to meet the In
creased population shown by the 1920
census, ten states will lose one or
more representatives, according to
Representative Siegel Of New York
chairman of the census committee,
which will frame the new apportion-
ment bill Those states are:
Indiana, Iowa and Missouri, which
will lose two congressman each, and
Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland
Nebraska, Vermont and Virginia
which will lose one congressman
each.
Mr.. Siegel explains that if the house
membership is retained at its present
figure, it will be necessary to in.
crease the population basis in each
congressional district beyond the 211,.
600 or major portion thereof now
fixed. If this is done, he says, the
ten states named will lose one OF
more Of the present districts because
their populations have not increased
in proportion to those of other states

Upton FAILS TO
WIN AMERICA CUP
Shamrock w Defeated Decis-
lively in Final Race for
Famous Trophy.
BRITISH YACHT OUTCLASSED
After Losing First Two Races, Ameri
can SIooP Won the Last Three
Rather Easily.

Sandy Hook, n. defender Reso
lutte gave the British challenger,
Shamrock ", the worst drubbing Of
the 1920 regatta in the final race of
the series. winning boat-for-boat by
thirteen minutes and five seconds.
Through the victory the Americas
famous yachting cup remains Ameri-
can property
Overcoming a 40-second lead and
the advantage OF a windward berth,
which Shamrock " had taken at the
start, the fleet defender held a lead
of four minutes and eight seconds at
the half way stake of the 30-mile
course and crossed the finish line
thirteen minutes and five seconds
ahead. Including her handicap Of six
minutes and forty seconds, which she
did not need, Resolute won by 19
minutes and As seconds.
ResoIute Showed Her Pluck.
In capturing the series and retain
ing possession of the Americas
trophy, Resolute came from behind
after Shamrock had taken two races,
and won out by registering three
straight and impressive victories.
Shamrock w won the initial race,
when the defender was forced out by
an accident to her rigging, and cap
tured the second in a tickle wind that
left Resolute becalmed most OF the
way. Resolute won the third by her
time allowance Of seven minutes and
one second, running a dead heat with
the challenger. Her other. two. vic
tories were won boat=foT-boat.
Sir Thomas Upton, owner Of the
green challenger, voiced what appear
ed to be the unanimous verdict of
yachtmen who had seen the five
races when he declared that 1.-The best
boat won"
In Picturesque Finish.
Nature provided a rare setting for
tOday's historic finish. The sun-a
great fiery ball-was fast dropping
through a red and purple haze over
the point Of Sandy Hook. when Reso-
lutte, clipping swiftly through the deep
green water, with billowy white sails
siIhouetted against the haze, bore
down on the mark
A moment later she flashed across
the golden finish line that the setting
sun had laid down on the ripping
water between squat Ambrose Chan
mel Iightship and the committee boat,
Barryton.

NOT so ExTRAVAGANT NOW
Americans Are Buying More Liberty
Bonds and Fewer Automobiles,
Reserve Bank Report Says.

ST. Louis.-Extravagant buying is
rapidly subsiding. despite the fact the
purchasing power of the public has
not diminished according to the
monthly report Of the eighth federal
reserve district, issued here.
The report states advices from de-
partment stores indicate customers
are demanding the worth Of their
money in quantity and quality.
Statements from bond houses that
the public is buying Liberty Bonds
over the counter with eagerness" and
the fact that there is a well defined
slowing down in the motor car indus
try are further indicative of the gen
eral trend toward saving, the report
says.
No change is forecast in the shoe
industry and clothing for fall delivery
is steady to higher, the report says.

IRELAND IS FACIHG CIVIL WAR
Flame of fractional Strife May Burst
Forth at Any Moment-Sinn Fein
Blocks Solution.

London.-Bitter days are ahead for
Ireland. The wave of riot and murder
that has gripped the island for sew
eral months is on the verge of break
ing into the open flame OF civil war.
The only road to a solution-a dis
cussion of the dominion home rule
plan-apparently is being closed by
the implacable attitude OF the Sim
Fein. Even their friends in England,
mostly labor leaders, have only en-
Uttered the Irish Nationalists by treir
efforts TO bring about Cancellation
Sir Horace Plunkett, founder Of the
Irish Dominion League and leader of
moderate Irish Nationalist opinion, told
an audience at Newcastle recently
that the situation in Ireland is more
gravely alarming than it has ever been
within his knowledge Of forty years.
A similar view is reflected by the
newspapers Of both England and Ire
land Of all shades of politics.
Many of them agree with Sir Ed
ward Carson, Ulster Unionist leader,
who declared in a speech in commons
recently that he had never known
anything like the state OF anarchy pre-
vailing and that in "three-quarters OF
Ireland the British government has
been entirely beaten"
And Sir Hamar Greenwood, chief
secretary for Ireland, has warned the
country to brace itself against bitter
period. 1t is apparent from this that
the government regards a parting OF
the ways as having been reached.
The Sim Fein are holding out firm
" against any effort to give home
rule to Ireland that would exclude
Ulster and are as firmly determined
to gain total independence. Thus the
governments only course appears tc
be leading towards the bitter period
which Sir Hamar foresees, with more
soldiers to check outlawry and strictel
laws for repression of nationalistiC
tendencies. Among these is one FOL
the trial Of criminals by summary
courts and abandoning attempts TO In
duce iurymen to answer a summons
for service.
Small interest has been excited il
Ireland by the tentative proposals at
tributed to Lloyd George regarding do
minion home rule with the exclusion
Of six Ulster counties. The Associated
Press correspondent has seen several
politicians Of various views and al
agree that there is no immediate pros
pect of settlement in that direction
Meanwhile, Sim Fem is not commit
ted in any way and labor Intervention
is only provoking more irritation

brisk this month, $685. men having

army. In June 1877 men were ac-
cepted, establishing a record since de-

Adiutant General Harris said that
the increase in recruiting largely was
due to the army schools, which were

NEWS ITEMS FROM
ALL OVER KANSAS
Happenings of More or Less
Interest Gathered From
Many Sources.
ALLEN ASKS FOR MORE CARS
Governor Outlines situation in a New
Appeal to interstate Commerce
Commission for Aid.

The present movement OF the 1920
Kansas wheat crop is so slow it will
take two years to get the 147-million-
bushel new crop out of the state un-
less the railroads are able to get more
ears and handle the wheat faster.
That was the statement made by
Governor Allen in an appeal to the
interstate commerce commission for
more cars for Kansas. The governor
pointed out that the movement OF
wheat out of Kansas this year was
more than so per cent below the
movement a year ago. The governor,
in his telegram to E. z. Clark, chair
man of the commerce commission,
said:
Because OF the seriousness of the
situation which confronts the wheat
farmers and grain interests of Kansas
] feel that I would be remiss il I did
not lay before you the full situation
as regards inadequate transportation
for this state The wheat crop OF
1919 amounted to 146 million bushels.
Because of inability of the railroads
TO move this crop something like IL
or Is million bushels of the old crop
were left on hand in Kansas when the
new crop matured. The remainder OF
the old crop, plus lat million bushels
grown this year, amounts to practic-
ally 100 million bushels for which
transportation will be needed.
Unsatisfactory as was the move
ment of grain out of the state last
wear the present movement is more
than so per cent below that OF the
corresponding period a year ago. At
the present rate OF movement it
would require more than two years
TO move the present wheat supply to
mills and elevators.
''The effect of this situation is
gTavely to enhance the price Of food
stuffs and to add heavy burden to
the financial interests which must
carry the unmarketed crop. 1t is
adding very greatly to the expense
which the farmer must bear in the
handling of his wheat in the payment
of interest charges and in the waste
incident to prolonged storage.
'I respectfully invite your attention
TO the fack that out of the twenty-five
or thirty thousand cars which the
press reports indicate have been or
dered to the relief of western and
southwestern railroads only 1896 had
ing this section and of course all OF
these were not placed in service in
this state.

AMERICANS wary
Of SOVIET MOVE
Washington Officials Believe
Peace Proposal a SkiilfuI
Move for Recognition.
OTHERS NOT ENTHUSIASTIC
Lead of Great Britain for Conference
Not Receiving Hearty Support of
Her Allies.

hington.-Russia's proposal for
| a conference with the Allies in Lon
don was regarded unofficialIy here as
a skillful maneuver to effect a quasi
recognition OF the Soviet regime. Of
ficially the state department was with
out any knowledge of the Soviet sug-
gestion but it was clear that unless
some more urgent reason than now
is apparent is given the United States
will be in no haste to accept an invita-
ton to join in such a conference, even
| though one were extended.
1t was assumed here that the United
States would be asked to participate
but the prevailing opinion appeared to
be that the specific issue-the cessa-
ton OF war with PoIand-might bet
ter be considered first by the prinei-
pals. The United States, it was ex-
planned, has a peculiar interest in the
situation, aside from that of desiring
sterilization of political conditions
throughout Europe, but the method
suggested by Russia was regarded gen.
orally as a continuance of the Soviet
authorities to use the Polish situation
to advance the international status Of
| their regime.
The new move was pointed to as the
latest of long series Of attempts at
| negotiations, including the Prinkipo
conference which never was held, and
the London conference regarding the
resumption of trade with Russia,
which is yet to be held. The United
States has consistently refused to
enter into relations with the soviet
regime but always has been definitely
interested and watchful Of every
move made either by Russia or by
another government looking to an ad-
justment of the formers international
relations.
President Wilson, it was said has
kept informed regarding the develop
ments not only as to the Russo-Polish
situation but also as to the situation
in its broader aspect. The position
the president will take was not even
| specialized upon by government OF
ficials, but it has been indicated that
unless he otherwise directed the at
titude of the United States would be
that of an interested observer and
| that for the present no expression OF
moral support" or more active aid
would be extended to the Poles.
