Stock And Implements Sold Low
Prices realized at two public sales of
stock and farming implements. in this

MAY AID FARMERS

WASHINGTON, D. c., DEC. 10 UNITED
Press) )-Prediction that his resolution
reviving the War Finance Corporation
will be passed by the Senate was made
by Senator Gronna, chairman of the
agriculture committee. \.
The measure is designed to give Fed.
eral aid in the expectation of surplus
agriculture stocks in this country 90 q
to prevent farmers having to sell their
crops below cost of production. The
resolution also directs the Federal re-
serve banks to aid farmers in the pres
ent state of depressed prices.
Republican leaders have assured him
they did not oppose the resolution,
Gronna said Southern and western
Senators are expected to support the
measure almost in body because Of
the demand for the resumption Of the
corporation from agriculture and re-
lated interests. The resolution must
be passed by the House. following
favorable action by the Senate, and
signed by the President before becom-
ing law.
The resolution does not involve ap-
propristions Of any funds. The sum of
1914 .OOO, 900 remains in the treasury
from the half billion dollar appropri-
alton made for the corporation when it
was established. This money would be
used for the proposed revived activities
OF the corporation, but proponents de-
clare the moral courage which passage
OF the measure would give agriculture
and the financing banks would make
the use Of government funds largely
unnecessary.

Greatest Force to

With citizens generally sympathizing

Army an effort was being made today
to get more solicitors to push the cam
paign here for $4,000 to a speedy con.
clusion. Those campaigners who have
worked since Monday report hearty
welcome herever they have gone, and
have asked that assistants be given
shat they might cover the city more
speedily and strive to end the cam
paign by the end Of this week.
No change In the report Of receipts
since last night when the figures for
the city stood at 1890 were reported
up to late hour this afternoon.
Many Incidents, favorable and 9TH
erwise, are reported by solicitors
Some Of them that occurred Tuesday
ere;
DO not overlook the Salvation array
whenever they need mony. Pass up
everything else If you want TO. but
do not pass them up-1they are the
ones who helped us most over here"
This, IN substance is what salem
doughboy wrote to his mother. Did
she pass them up 7No she emptied her
purse and made her husband do 1t
too when the solicitors came around.
A strong husky fellow was turning
down two ladies who are assisting in
the drive. when in comes a sweet fac
ed old lady--his mother. Her hands
had Just come cut Of the bread dough
and when she learned what the la
dies were asking of her son she said
why, OF course I'll give you some
thing" She came back with all she

were more. ! do hope you win be

In canvassing among Salems poor
or people the solicitors are learning
