Kansas Senator Declares Only
Per Cerft. of Trading in Fu-

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.--Senator
Capper Of Kansas to-day made pub
lie his proposed bill to stop gambling
in foodstuffs and cotton.
A tax OF 10 per cent, designed to
be prohibitive, on future" trading in
grain and cotton. except by actual

under Federal license. Is the basic fea-
ture Of the Capper Bill, which is TO be

In a statement outlining his bill
Senator Capper declared that only
about 1 per cent of future" trading
in grain and cotton was bona fide. The

ducted," he added, as the worlds
greatest gambling institution. More
wheat was sold in Chicago in the

WORKERS BODY
FOUND IN DEBRIS
Inquiry into Strathmore Collapse
May Bring in Feud Of
Unions,

The finding OF the body of John c.
Smith In the debris Of the Strath-
more apartment building at Broad
way and SD Street enabled the Dis
trict Attorneys Office 10 start a
homicide investigation to-day. As
sistant District Attorney Hennls will
call witnesses Monday. among them
the building inspector who last passed
the structure uJ safe. He will also
make thorough Inquiries, he an
nounced, regarding the men who
worked on the building, who en-
ployed them, and what labor organi-
zation they were members OF.
Smith was welder, and the posi-
tion OF his body indicated that had he
got four feet farther away when the
alarm came he would have been
saved. The body was found under a
heap Of debris on the second floor.
Evidently Smith had run toward the
Broadway front of the floor and was
four feet from a part still standing
when knocked down and crushed.
The authorities believe there Is no
other body in the wreckage.

IRISH IN n. Y. SEND
CHRISTMAS CHEER
TOFOLKS AT HOME
$50 Seven-Pound Drafts Sent
to Kin in Ireland in
One Day.

Christmas, 1920, may not be merry
in ireland, but It will be a day Of
feasting and Thanksgiving for many
thousands having kinsfolk in America
These relatives in the United States
have loving thoughts and tender feel
Isle. This is evident from the long
line OF people at the irish Emlgrant
Society No. 81 Chambers Street, who
are daily sending drafts to the loved
ones In the old country" Thou
sands Of drafts, before Christmas, will
be cashed in Galway, Tlpperary, Cork.
Mayo, Tyrone, Roscommon, Kerry. and
other Irish counties--sent by persons
in New York, who this year are ex-
ceeding former efforts in behalf Of
their countrymen.
Yesterday broke all records thus far
$50 drafts being sent, or 115 drafts
per minute. These drafts averaged
c7 per person or about $3.50
The sending of these drafts began
Thanksgiving Day and will continue
until Dec. IA, which is the last day
mail may be forwarded to reach Ire
land before Christmas Day, The
Irish Emigrant Society, which was
founded in 1910 TO help Irish emi-
grants, charges no fees for sending
these funds and assumes responsibility
for their safe delivery.
Many Of the draft senders have been
forwarding these practical remem-
brances home for years and years.
The drop in the rate OF eNcnanGe,
Thomas V. Brady, Treasurer. said,
has resulted in the sending OF large
drafts. Some persons are unaware OF
the reduction in the value OF the
pound sterling, and upon learning that
e5, the amount they were accustomed
TO send, is equivalent to $ls, they inn
mediately increase their order to e.,
that their relatives will receive ap-
proximately-$25.
The Irish Emigrant Society is the
only organization OF its kind in the
city in that It handles drafts entirely
without profit and for philanthro1ir
reasons. Also 1t maintains agents at
Ellis Island whose duties are to care
for Irish immigrants entering this
country, finding them employmeh b:
| and diverting immigrants from the
cities into the country.
