Several Arrests Made

DUBLIN, Feb. 20.-With a tank and
two armored cars the military to-day
carried out a raid near Grafton Street
where they are reported to have made
several arrests. The raid followed
early morning fights between civilians

sons were arrested.
1t is believed the carly morning dis
turbances were part of an organized
plan for a simultaneous attack upon
the police in different parts of the city.
The plan was frustrated. for the most
part, by arrests of suspicious persons
many of whom were found to be heay-
iiy armed.

Candidates Must Give Pledges
The committee, if I understand the
temper of organized agriculture" Chair
man Barrett said, will demand a most
comprehensive and unmistakable state
ment of the position of each candidate
on questions especially relating to agri-
culture. The farmers will not submit
to camouhage. Moreover, the com
mittee will try to determine before
submitting its findings to the farmers
just what ability a candidate may have
to carry out his prediction promises.
We must get behind strong, faithful
long-visioned man. None other will
suit
{. Q. Drayton president of the Farm
warned Conference an Us fpefsvs to be l
OF the kind of cooperation we adopt"
The greatest menace day to the free
institutions of America, he said, was
the "organized labor union trust" but
an even greater menace would be "an
organized farmer trust" The associa-
tion of which he is head. Mr.. Drayton
said, would have nothing to do with
in farm products through organization
of farmers.
Delegate Needed Abroad
The conference adopted resolutions
asking the early appointment of an
American delegate to the international
Institute of Agriculture at Rome to
succeed the late David Lubin, approved
the CapperH Hersman bill restoring to
farmers the right of collective buying
and selling, expressed confidence in the
Federal Trade Commission in connec-
tion with the imminent investigation
of that body, and petitioned Congress
to amend the farm loan act to increase
the maximum loan from $4,000 to
$4,000.
Maurice McCauliffe, president of the
Farmers Union of Kansas, said the
cooperative ventures of farmers in the
United States already handled l(.siness
of $1,000,000,000 annually and should.
easily increase to six times that figure
within decade.
