Astoria, Or.-The finding OF scatter
ed pieces of lumber adrift near James
island and the appearance of a large
amount OF lumber on the beach at Cape
Johnson have added TO the belief that

The Inflated lumberladen barge has
not been seen since she was cut adrift
from the steamer Santa Rita, 1000
yards southwest of James island. and
advices indicate the craft was wreck
ed on Giants Graveyard rocks.
There were "a people on board the
Pirrie including the captain. his wife
and baby.
After the barge was cut adrift. she
started to drift rapidly toward the

FARMERS EXEMPT
FROM PROSECUTION
Department of Justice Declares
Movement to withhold Crops
Is Not Unlawful.

Observation-Disclosures farmers CO.
operative organizations are exempt
from application OF antitrust laws.
the department Of justice has given
no consideration to the campaign TO
withhold crops from the markets until
prices advance. II was said by +. X.
Nebeker, special assistant to the at
torney general.
Mr. Nebeker's explanation OF the
departments attitude followed a state
ment by @. s. Barrett. president OF
the National Farmers union, that he
understood federal agents were at
tempting to obtain evidence for prose
cution In Kansas, Iowa and other
states
The Clayton antitrust act. Mr..
Nebeker said. provides that agricul-
tural organizations. not having CAPT
tai stock nor being conducted for
profit cannot be construed AS con-
spiracies In restraint OF trade. With
holding OF crops for personal profit
re asserted. probably would not be
held as organization profits.
Mr.. Nebeker also alleged that the
limitations on the appropriation act
for the enforcement of the antitrust
law would seem to preclude action
against farmers. inasmuch as the act
specifies that no part of the appro-
priations shall be expended for the
prosecution OF farmers who cooper
ate to obtain a fair and reasonable
price for their products.

Ihe only meeting to-day was a con-
terence of the committee on national
emergency in education, representative
or all groups of education, which dis
cussed the questions of shortage and
Saiarles OF teachers, the Smith Towner,
IN the Presidents Cabinet and a $780,
100000 annual Federal subsidy for pub
lie schools.
The great shortage Of teachers, the
hnding of approximately $4,000 we'll
trained teachers to take positions either
vacant or filled with incompetents now,
according to prominent educators, and
the question Of a minimum salary

said:
whether a man or woman fills this
important position is Of small moment.
1T has been said one reason women
have lent their adherence to the crea-
ton of a Department of Education is
that they intend to urge the appoint
ment Of woman as the irst Secre-
tary of Education. Personally, I do
not believe this is so.

t1vated the action of the hundreds of
