Washington-The Interstate Com

step toward breaking the freight
blockade. Telegraphic appeals were
sent to all state railway and public
service commissions urging them to
join with the government in lifting the
burden, while the commissions force
Of inspectors began to get accurate
data respecting conditions at critical
points.
Members of the commission recog-
Qized that the present crisis would pro-
vide real test for the new transpor.
tatfon act and likewise that the emer-
gencX clauses must measure up to the
claims of their staunchest supporters.
Task May Require Weeks.
With increasing complaints from
shippers and requests for assistance
from the railroads themselves, the
commission is understood to have de-
termfned to 60 into the freight tie-up
with hammer and tongs. Officials,
however, urged patience, since it may
require days and even weeks to start
anything like resumption of normal
transportation service. In it's first at
tempts at freeing the maze of rail
equipment the commission probably
will deal with local situations in the
various cities through individual roads.
This was expected to last, however,
only until general scheme can be
worked out by which priorities and
embargOes can be employed to re-
strain the onrushing stream Of COM
modities waiting at every station.
Further suggestions of the railroads
were given the commission at confer
ences with representatives of the rail-
roads and shippers organization Off
cials. The fuel situation has slowly
developed to the danger point, repre-
sentatives said, and they proposed that
the commission establish a general
movement of coal cars eastward.

it was keeping in constant touch with

its own representatives and in COOP

THE SUSPICIOUS

Every time a man undertakes some
worthy project in the community there
are the suspicious ones who ask;
''What does he get out of it?" just
as if nobody ever had anything with
out an ulterior or selfish motive,
A public improvement of some kind
is proposed and a certain element
sets up the cry: Somebody is going
to get something out of it." A man
accepts an Office at a sacrifice, think
ing he can help the people of the
community, and some fellow speaks
up and says: "Oh, well, he'll get a
good deal more out of it in some way
than the salary" And when a fellow
makes a donation to some worthy
Caag@ bis motive is suspicioned and

BkERG ASKS FOR REPORTS
ON PERIODICAL ClCADAs

The periodical cicadas whose ap.
pearance in Arkansas were predicted
some time ago by w. J. Baerg, Ento-
mologist of the University of Arkan-
sas have made their appearance.
The first report came from Antoine
in the southeastern part of Pike Coun-
ty where the correspondent says they
are present in great numbers.
These insects are sometimes known
as 17-year locusts but this is a mis-
leading term because in Arkansas and
many other localities of the south
the insects appear every 10 years.
The insects are not locusts, but have
a long, sucking beak by means Of
which they feed by sucking the sap
from various shrubs and trees. As a
rule they cause no particular damage
by their feeding; but when the fe-
males begins to deposit the eggs, per
.haps in a month, they cause some
damage to young orchards or trees
in the nursery row. The eggs are
deposited in Sits that the female
makes in the bark Of the trees
The EntOmologist will appreciate it
very much if persons from all over
the state will send him reports in
regard to the time when the cicadas
appear, the number in which they oc
cur and the extent of the damage
they cause. The body including the
head of the insect is black 1t is
nearly an inch long. The wings are

Harding To Californians

Marion, O., Sept. 15-To a del
egation of Californians, Senator
Harding declared Tuesday that
the nation must "stand behind
the state of the Pacific Coast to
relieve them of the difficulties of
Oriental immigration and must
see that only such aliens that can
be assimilated and irnbued with
thorough Americanism are admit
ted.
The dangers of racial conflict,
said the republican nominee, must
be recognized and provision made
to reduce them to minimum He
suggested that such steps could
be taken without offensive ref1ec-
ton on any race and without rails
ing the question of racial inferior
ity or inequality.
In his speech to the Californ-
ians the Senator also suggested
the necessity of a protective tar
'iff to aid American farmers and
replied at length to democratic
charges of a republican Senate
.oligarchy" He reminded he voter
that Senators. are elected by pop
ular vote and declared the demo
Cratic leaders were opposing Sen
ate influence because they wanted
to perpetuate autocratic personal
government"

RECORD BREAKING ]
CORN CROP ASSURED
High Price For Product and To-
bacco Situation Bring About
Very Important Change

Not only is there bumper corn
crop predicted for Madison coun-
ty, but a record breaker, since re-
ports are to the effect that the
quantity this year is the greatest
in the history OF the county and
the quality is not far behind
There is a large acreage, much
greater than usual, superinduced
by the high price of the product
For years there has been a scar
city of corn in this section owing
to the great acreage devoted to
tobacco. However, there is a
change being experienced in favor
of the corn, and many will realize
handsomely on the abundant crop
this year and be induced, reports
have it, to devote more ground to
corn another year, instead of to-
bacco.
There has not been sufficient
corn in Madison county to supply
the demand for feed when grass
was short" asserted one man, in
speaking of the situation, and he
added that there was at least
one-third more acreage this year
than last and predicted the acre
age would be doubled, owing to
the tobacco situation another
year. There are not SO many
chances on corn" he claimed,
and should there be shortage in
production as we'll as a decrease
IN price, it can be stood better
than the same results with crop
of tobacco. This year will tell
the tale with a number of tobac-
CO raisers. I believe, and cause
many of them to stop and think
twice before devoting so much
money to its culture. 1t is my
belief, as well as many others,
that there will be a continuance
OF tobacco production, with many
losers. However, there will be
many turn to corn and other pro-
ducts that will insure a better re-
turn for the money, without so
much risk. The situation is such
that the farmer must have good
returns for his work which is at
"a higher premium than for many
years, and he cannot afford to
take too many chances on the
production. He must get results
to pay for the expense of produc-
ton these days"

MORE HELP FOR
DISABLED SOLDIERS

Men disabled in government service
during the war with Germany, for
whom the government is providing
vocational training in various educa-
tional institutions throughout the
country, will receive an increase in
maintenance where the expense of
living justifes it, according to a COM
munication received by commanders
of posts of the American Legion in
this and other states.
Thomas j. North, Louisville, at the
head OF the vocational training for
disabled men for the state of Ken
lucky, sends out the information that
this will be a great benefit in many
cases, owing to the fact that the cost
of living in some localities is excep-
tionally high. This decision will ben
eft many in Madison county, since
there are many known here who are
eligible to the benefits, and are pre-
pairing to take advantage of them.
1t is expected the increase will reach
$40 per month. This movement is said
to be due to the lack of dormitory
