Budapest, Oct, 2.-Bolshevik doc

recently returned from America

INDIA SHIPS WHEAT.
Despite Famine Country Exports
Finer Grains.

T lher GFaInS.
By Associated Press.
Cbicago, Oct. 22.-How it is that
notwithstanding reports Of famine in
India that country is exporting wheat
was explained here today by the Rev.
DIR. Benson Baker, who has been for
many years a missionary in the heart
of India. He now represents the
Board of Foreign Missions Of the
Methodist Episcopal church in Chi
cago, working in connection with the
committee on conservation and ad-
vance.
The reason is very clear" DR.
Baker said. THE people OF India are
so poor that the great mass of them
live on the coarser grains, such as
barley. rye, rice, etc. Wheat is eaten
only by the wealthy people, and is
grown largely for export, so that
even in the face of famine 1t is better
to export the wheat, and to use the
money received in buying coarser
grains. which the poor people are ac-
customed 70 eat.
There are always good crops in
some parts of India, and now with
their modern railroad systems, the
government is able to transport grain
from one part to another, thus in
some measure alleyiating the rgor
CT famine.
Just now famine is due very large
ly to our old friend h. c. !. The cost
OF living in India has risen in pro-
portion more than 1t has in America
and the people there, on a totally
different economic basis. have had a
frightful time OF it. Cntil some re-

Major Leagues to
Haze eHousecleaninp
Of Old Grudges

When the magnates of the Ameri-
can and National leagues get to-
gether late in the winter, or after
the Chicago scandal has been brush
ed Off the deck and plans made for
the 1921 campaign. there is going to
be thorough housecleaning of old
grudges. according to Ban Johnson
and Clarke Griffith.
There is going to be a gentle but
firm probe of the repeated reports
that the Comiskey- Frazee- Rupert
combination has worked diligently
all during the 1920 season to prevent
the Cleveland team from purchasing
a much needed southpaw pitcher
Also there will be a little light thrown
on the intimation that the Pitts
burgs-St: Louis Chicago combina-
ton lost quite bit of sleep to pre-
vent McGraw from landing Horns
by or Maranville.
Griffith has already styled the al
legged combinations as cheap con-
spiracies. and cataloged them as
absolutely dangerous to the success
OF organized ball. He wants the mem
bers of these various combinations
to bury the hatchet and devote more
time to building up the popularity of
baseball than to carry on petty
grudge fights.
Johnson has had little to say re-
garding the reported combinations
but the American chief has spoken
his mind on the subject of lack of
cooperation, and several Of the mag
mates declare Johnson could not
strengthen his stand by making spe-
cif1c mention Of this particular affair.
With Chicago minus seven Of her

ter to be the ideal time to approach
the "boys" with a proposition Of
peace within as we'll as without The

Owner Dunn, of the Cleveland
team. has never made formal COM
plant against the so-called conspir-
acy, but he has commented at length
several times when his offers for
southpaw pitchers of only ordinary
caliber were sneeZed at by clubs ap-
parently out of the flag race. Dunn
Will be asked to make formal COM
plaint in order that the matter can
be brought to the surface and rem

M'FADDEN BILL OPPOSED.
Report Submitted to American Bank
ers' Association Against Gold Tax.

BY Associated Press.
Washington, Oct. 21.-The McFad-
den bill proposing a tax on gold used
in industry and the arts to be paid
in turn to the mining companies, was
opposed in a report submitted today
to the American Bankers Association
by a special committee, of which
George M. Reynolds, of Chicago, is
chairman.
The committee theld that the with
drawal for industrial purposes last
year of s22,O00,oO0 Of gold from the
country's monetary stock was not a
national emergency calling for spe-
cial treatment of the gold mining in
dustry SO as to stimulate the gold
output.
Diminished gold production in pc
riods of high prices and high costs
tends to reduce price and costs
again." said the report, which de-
clared that the offer of premium on
gold would lead the world to assume
that the United States was in danger
of going on a paper money basis and
that it's dollar was not as good as
gold.
With the price OF gold hxed the
committee conceded that many com
panies had found operations unprofit
able because Of present high costs,
but it said the fixed price in periods
of adversely. depression and falling
prices brings to the gold miner, as
to no one else. increased profits"
Credit defation, the committee held,
will cure the present situation Of the
gold miner.

country" continued the report, "looks
forward to a progressive and far
reaching contraction of our credit

Germany's Taxes.

The plan of taxation which has
been adopted in Germany is interest
ing owing to it's many original feat
ures. This plan is, in it's principal
features, that outlined by Erzberger
during the first months Of 1919 when
the project Of complete economic
reform still ruled in it's most radical
form. Much of this project has since
been abandoned, but the tax features
remain, especially those which aim
at the partial confiscation of large
fortunes, notably those made during
the war.
The law calls for the confiscation
OF all war fortunes over the sum of
3S0,00 marks and taxes smaller pro-
fits to such an extent that no one
could retain more than $4,000 marks
of profit made between Jan. /, 1914
be $4,000 at the normal exchange
and only about $4,000 at the present
exchange.
a good law, no doubt. and quite the
treatment .Ione would like to see &C
corded the profiteer, but quite tnef-
fective as it has. been applied in
Germany for two reasons. The first
of these reasons is simply that the
government has been unable to coll
lect this tax or has, perhaps, not
tried. The second reason is that the
great alteration In the purchasing
power Of the mark, and the immense
fortunes that have beer made since
1919 in paper marks the war mil
lionaire has only to pay outshis paper
marks to cover the tax, and retain
the most OF his fortune intact. And
one unfortunate result Of the law
was that merchants and manufactur-
ers In order to cover themselves have
raised prices beyond all reason 50 as
to make the ultimate possible profit
since the date the law ceased to ap-
ply to profits. June 80, 1919. So that
| 1t may possibly have been this well
intended law which has been the
prime cause of the present high price
crisis in Germany. Capitalists moi
only have all of this money which
should already have been paid to the
government in, taxes, but they are
using 1t to increase their wealth sc
as to pay back themselves in ad-
vance any amounts the government
finds itself authorized to seize under
this law. In other words the capital
lists have avoided this tax, which il
was believed impossible to avoid
not they, but the public, are paying
the tax.
