companies have advanced the price by
sales to each other through manipula-
tions of the grain market.
This wheat cost $2.07 bushel, but
the grain companies are selling it to
their own mills at from So to $3.50
a bushel and these mills "are assert
ing the right to manufacture flour on
the basis of the price paid for the
wheat-a price which is the result of
their own manipulations.
The mills not only increased the
price of flour, but also of the bypro-
ducts. Bran and shorts hav been
raised from $18.75 a ton to S43 ton,
and these excessive costs threaten the
dairy industry with destruction.
The grand jury calls on the United
States department of justice to act.
1t is stated that if an attempt is made
in this district to lower prices, the
mill owners will move their commod-
ity elsewhere 1t S also recommended
that proclamation be issued fixing
selling price for wheat now held in
this country at the price paid the
farmers, plus a reasonable carrying
charge. Congress is urged not to
finance the sale of wheat to foreign
countries until the American people,
are relieved from the extortionate
prices that have been set by the spec
ulators.

SELF PRESERVATION
Reason for Resistance OF
Jap Invasion

Washington Self preservation is
the reason Pacific coast states are re-
sisting the Japanese invasion, declar-
ed United States Senator Phelan, in
reply to the Japs' claim for race
equality
'It is not a question of personal
equality as between man and man
that is involved at all in this discus
sion," said Senator Phelan "It is
that legal equality under which the
Japanese would claim the right freely
to come into the United States. or into
Australia, if you please, just as do the
nationals of any other country, it is
that equality under which they would
claim the right of naturalization, just
as the nationals of other countries,
of citizenship, of the elective franchise,
Of intermarriage, and of the holding
Of land
BY actual experience we find that
we can not admit that equality involv-
ing all these things, because these
aliens are capable Of displacing the
people who are now upon the soil, the
white man and woman who have pion-
eered the land, developed it, in mine
and field, reared their institutions,
political and social and who, when the
time comes, contribute their sons to
fight the battles of their country.
I'VE cannot on terms of political
equality or of social equality or of
commercial or industrial equality ad-
NIT freely the Japanese without in
evitably involving the destruction of
the American population now upon
the soil. 1t is a question of sef-pre-
servation. There is no other question
involved" ("

MORE DAYLIGHT
PLAN
Is Being Adopted BY Many
Leading Cities
System in Vogue in Several
Throughout the Year

A canvass of the leading cities of
the East and Middle West conducted
by the Cincinnati Enquirer shows all
have adopted more daylight, or are
about to do so.
Some have the system in effect
throughout the year, but the majority
provide for it only during the summer
months. The testimony as to its
worth is that it has worked so bene-
ficially that former opponents have
been either sileneed or converted.
Cincinnatians will vote on more
daylight ordinance April 27.
In no city where it has been adopted
is there movement to abandon it.
All favored nationwide more daylight
and in few of the states there is an
effort to have the legislature pass a
more daylight law
Only in the legislature of New York
state is there a bill pending against
more daylight Soon after congress
repealed more daylight over the veto
of President Wilson the Empire state
legislature passed a law for more day
| light throughout the commonwealth.
1t provides that clocks be moved for
ward an hour on the last Sunday in
March and remain ahead until the last
Sunday in October A bill has been
introduced for its repeal.
But regardless of the fate of the
bill, New York city will have more
daylight, as it's board of aldermen
passed more daylight ordinance,
and it was signed by Mayor Hylan.
1t is for the summer months.
In Philadelphia more daylight or
dinance was passed by the city council
on December 4, 1919, and became eff
fective with the signature of the
mayor. 1t provides that at O'Clock
"ante-meridian time on the last Sun
day in March the clocks shall be ad-
vaneed one hour and returned to astro-
nomical time on the last Sunday of
October
In Baltimore the City Council is
