BILL WOULD ELIMINATE
THE INSURANCE FEATURE

Chicago, Dec. 4.-The bill pre-
pared by Senator Capper for the
regulation of grain exchanges
would lead to the entire elimina-
ton Of the Insurance feature of
the grain market. Leslie f. Gates,
president of the Chicago board of
trade, declared today. The result.
he said, would be "such a widen
ing margin between producer and
consumer that merchandise hand
lers would find it necessary to
cover additional risks of ownership
which they would assume"
While purporting to be q tax
ing measure" Mr.. Gates said, ''it is,
Of course, not intended to be a rev
enue producer. but rather intended
through the imposition of a pro-
hibitory tax to do away with trad
ing in grain for future delivery.
While it purports to leave an OPP
portunity for hedging purchases
and sales. any one at all familiar
with the grain marketing machin-
cry will realize that the passage of
such a bill would tend to the entire
elimination of the insurance fea-
ture of the grain market. Instead
of preventing speculation, such
provision would necessitate specu-
lation on the part of every cash
handler of grain and its products.

r. c. T.. On this eventful day the
idols set NJ by the Syrians for the
rites of their Greek religion were
removed and the Temple rededicat-
ed to the service of the God of
right and truth ana justice,
Many legends cluster about the
feast of Chanukah and have been
preserved in the Books of the Mac
cabees. The martyrdom Of Hannah
and her sons who, rather than sub
nit to the idolatvy of their oppres-
sors, yielded to the sword of the
tyrant, is among the impressive
stories of loyalty and heroic de-
votion to the God of Israel. There
are other legends recounting the
miraculous capacity of a cruise Of
unpoputed oil burning for eight
days in the Temple after its reded-
ication.
The kindling of lights for eight
days traced by some authorities to
this legend, is one of the measures
enjoined for its ceiebration. In
home and school, entertainments
expressive of cheer and gladness
are arranged. Chauukah. however
celebrates the ascendancy of the
spiritual over the material, of the
power Of right over the strength of
oppression. 1t reminds us that Il
few and feeble people betrothed
unto righteousness, may prevail
over armed foes that make might
their law of life.

This evening an impressive minor
holiday of the Jewish calendar,
known as Chanukah, win be ush-

eight days by all Jewish people in
a spirit of cheerfulness and good
will. While no special service is
held in the synagog for Chanukah,
certain additional sermons are in
corporated in the ritual which are

are keyed to the note of rejoicing
on account of the triumph of right
over might, the central theme of
the Chanukah festival.
The Feast of Dedication, as Cha
nukah is called, commentaries the
stirring events in Palestine from
16S to 1865 B. C. f. In those fate
ful years, Antiochus Epiphanes,
the king of Syria,' wishing to unite
all the provinces under his domln-
ion into one nation. issued such a
decree that only Greek religion
was to be practiced throughout his
empire. To enforce his royal man
date and suppress the religion of
the Jews, the sacred scrolls of the
law were burned and the Temple
at Jerusalem defiled by erection of
affairs for the worship OF idols and

SPECULATION IN
FOOD PRODUCTS
MAY Be HALTED
Senator Capper Makes Pub
lie His Bill Designed to
Stop Gambling in the Me-
ceSSitieS of Life.


Washington, Dec, 4.-Senator
Capper of Kansas, today made pub
lie his proposed bill to stop gam
bling in foodstuffs and cotton.
A tax of 10 per cent, designed to
be prohibitive on futures" trading
in grain and cotton, except by ac-
tual owners or a limited class Of
traders under federal license, is the
basic feature Of the Capper bill
which is to be introduced in the
senate next week by the author and
in the house by Representative
Tincher, republican, of Kansas.
The 10 per cent would apply to
options and the measure would al
feet grain products as well as raw
grain.
'"The bill will stop gambling in
wheat, corn, cotton and other farm
products" said Senator Capper.
at will eliminate the wheat pit
and the blackboard,
viii Eliminate Gambling.
ut will put out of business thou
sands of wire houses and bucket
shops, by making it impossible for
gamblers and spectators to deal
on boards of trade.
THE bill undertakes to preserve
the legitimate hedge" but cuts out
all gambling and manipulations."
Farmers, dealers and manufac-
turers buying or selling grain or
cotton for actual delivery would
not be restricted by the proposed
law, Senator Capper said.
Penalties of so per cent of the
proposed federal tax, a fine of
$4,000 and one years imsrison-
ment, for violation of the bill's pro-
visions are incorporated in the Cap
per bill.
Plays Board of Trade.
THE Chicago board of trade,
as now conducted" said Senator
Capper, "is the worlds greatest
gambling institution. More wheat
was sold in Chicago in the month
of October than was raised in the
entire United States this year.
This years corn crop was sold
fourteen times in Chicago before
a bushel OF corn had reached the
markets.
There is not the slightest doubt
that the gigantic raid made by the
bears on the board of trade was the
chief cause of the recent disastrous
slump in the price of farm prod
ucts Because a lot of market gam
blers find it convenient to bet on
the daily quotations, the farmer
who has been forced to sell his
hogs and cattle at loss while
meat still sells at war prices, is
again made the goat. The farmer
already has lost more than biz
lion dollars by the bear raid. Brok-
ers and commission houses have
cleaned up over forty millions in
margins and commissions alone.
The lambs who play the market
have lost more than one hundred
million dollars in the last ninety
days in speculating in cotton ana
wheat.
