Billion Dollar Grain Corpora
ton Fund Untouched.
Congress Takes Hand in Solu-
ton of Wheat Problem.
FARMERS ARE NOT ANXIOUS
Wheat Belt Congressman Not
Ayerse to Lifting Guarantee.
Tincher, of Kansas, Suggests
Buying Stocks on Hand.

Washington, May 14--With Wheat
Director Barnes predicting serious re-
suits may follow withdrawal of the
government from the wheat market
June 1 thru expiration of the wheat
price guarantee, leaders of the senate
and house interstate commerce and
agriculture committee today were
framing suggestions to submit at the
conference he has called for May 10
to discuss the situation.
One plan that will be suggested is
for the United States Grain corpora
ton TO make loans to the grain deal
ers and bankers of the middleweSt out
of the 100000 wheat guaran-
tee fund, which is virtually untouched.
This would enable them to handle
the new crop during the delay in rea-
LIKING on the old crop as the result of
the car shortage. Representative
Haugen, Iowa, stated that this is -the
most pressing need of the central west.
Tincher Suggests Plan.
Representative Tincher, of Kansas,
suggested that the grain corporation
offer to buy all grain now being stored
on farms which the government price
affects and which cannot be moved
until cars are obtained.
The conference is expected to sub
nit to the president a recomm enda-
ton as to whether trading in wheat
futures shall be resumed after June 1.
Extension of the guaranteed wheat
price beyond June 1 will not be de-
manded by representatives in con-
,gress from the great wheat belt a
canvass of these members today

HOLD ALLEGED DOPE FIEND.
Man. Released From Jail, Found il
DR.. II. j. Miller's office.

A man giving his name as Seth Sta
pleton walked into police headquar-
tiers Friday night, told the officers he
was a dope fiend and asked for lodg-
ing. He was locked up, and this
morning was released.
When he found himself free. &C
cording to the police. he darted out of
the door like a flash and ran up the
street. Chief G. G. Hannah. who was
standing outside, turned to one of his
men with the remark:
'I'll bet that fellow is going after
more dope"
A few hours later DR.. R. ]. Mil
Ter, 1874 Kansas avenue, called up the
police with the information that he
had just entered his office and found
a man there looking thru one of his
medical cases. The visitor dashed
from the room and escaped, Doctor
Miller said. The description he gave
the officers fitted the description OF
Stapleton. The police began a search
and Officer Lee Coberly found the
man at the Santa Fe depot. He was
locked up and booked for investiga-
ton.

Death of Her Husband Due to Poison

Springfield. Mo-, May 14.-Strong
sentiment against King Bruce. Cedar

terday after state chemists reported
the presence of poison in the vital or
gans of his wife, who died recently,
was reported this afternoon from

Mrs. Eta Decker. Bruce's house

which has stirred Cedar county, is in

yesterday afternoon. She had been at
liberty under $4,000 bond pending a
hearing on murder charges growing
out of the death of her husband, c. E.
Decker, December 20.
She was first arrested after state
university chemists analysed organs

and reported the presence of poison.

ARGUING RAILWAY CASE.
Attorneys Continuing Their Conten-
tons Before Court.

Attorneys for Kansas railroads to-
the court of industrial relations is
without jurisdiction in the wage case
of the brotherhood of stationary en-
gineers and oilers. Witnesses called
by the brotherhood sought to show
that authority had been given by the
international organization permitting
the bringing of the Kansas case. There
was uncertainty, tho, as to whether
such action removed the Kansas
workmen from relief thru federal
board orders.
Some time ago the railroads tested
the right of the industrial court to try
the case because of the recent act OF
congress in defining a federal board
which should be looked to for wage
settlements. Since the case was called
for trial Thursday morning, attorneys
for the various roads have sought to
show that an order by the Kansas
court would not remove the workme n
in this state from action by the federal
board.
In the event the industrial court
continues to retain jurisdiction, the
case will doubtless be submitted to
the supreme court on an appeal. Sew
eral officers of the railroad brother
hood testified today regarding action
of their international body in permit
ting the filing of the Kansas case
These officers were cross-examined al
length as to the scope of the au-
thority.

ating in England which he said was
separate organization of each large in
dustry by itself both as to employees
and employers.
employers and employees of one in
dustry could not sit together "a hours
without passing the increases on to

could be more dangerous than intro
duction of the Whitley shop plan in
America"
Need Cooperation.
Hoover held up as an ideal the plan
of the second industrial conference for
voluntary settlement of industrial
troubles thru cooperative agreement.
That avoids the pitfalls of compul-
sorry arbitration and the denial of the
right to strike" Hoover asserted.
MY opinion is that that is the best
step and the only step to be taken un-
I'll the whole problem has had further
development" Hoover said.
Kenyon asked Hoover what he
would do If he were a member of con-
gress.

something like this which is a step to
which there could be no righteous OBJ
lection" Hoover said. Moderate la

HALF is WASTED"
Report Shows 51.S7 Per Cent
City Water Dispensed Free.
For Flushing Sewers, Streets
and for Fire Protection.
RATE CHANGE is PROBABLE
City Losing Money on Minimum
and Maximum Bills.
Water Pumped During 1919 at
1,2O3,343,7O9 Gallons.

Exactly 51S7 per cent, or $751;
S3l, 413.1 of the 1903, 343,709 gallons
of water pumped by the city water
department during the year 1919 was
wasted or dispensed free of charge, &C
cording to the annual report of the
department now in preparation. Rev
enue was derived from 521,177,9 25
gallons. or 4S.13 per cent. The free
water was used for flushing sewers,
washing streets and fire protection.
Lose on Some Consumers.
The gross cost per thousand gallons
of the water pumped was 14.S1 cents.
The gross cost of the metered water
was 29.74 cents per thousand gallons.
The water department now has S,S49
consumers.
According to Commissioner Wilbur
Stanfield, the water department is los
ing money on it's minimum and its
largest consumers. He pointed out
that the water users whose bills never
run above the minimum cost the de-
partment as much in operating e3-
penses as any of the others. On the
other hand, the consumers who use
the most water get the advantage of
the lowest figures in the graduated
scale of rates. 1t is those with bills
running around IS and $40 month
on whom the water department must
depend for its revenue.
Rate Change Probable.
With these facts in view it is prob
able that an alteration of the rates
will be made when the city commits
sioners and the civic bodies take up
the proposition.
Stanfield and Fred Painter, super
intendent. are boiling down" the re-
ports of the engineers hired to make
a survey of the water situation here,
so 1t can be presented to the Topeka
civic bodies. The forecast is made
that, when completed, the report OF
the water department will show that,
during the last few years. enough
money has been spent in temporary
repairs and experiments to install
whole flock of filtration plants.
