Bob Finlay, film comedian now on

RECEIPTS ARE Low
Camouflage Reports Charged by
Farmers Denied by Brokers.
Not All Producers Are Holding
Grain From Market. Z

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. l5.-word is
being circulated persistently among
farmers that the reported receipts of
wheat at terminal markets and espe-
cially at Kansas City are purposeiy ex-
aggeFated, to depress prices. and are
far in excess of actual receipts, ac-
cording to a letter to local news
paper from B. Needham, master of
the Kansas State Grange.
Grain men here say that this i'm
preston probably arises from the fact
that in some parts of Kansas farmers
are not selling their product and they
cannot understand why the condition
does not prevail elsewhere. The rec
ord of receipts reported daily by the
railroads to the board of trade here
shows that the Union Pacific and Bur-
lington roads are bringing in about so
per cent of the wheat arriving at Kan
sas City now.
Most of this grain is said to be COM
ing from northwestern and southwest
ern Nebraska where cars were scarce
early in the season. The present ship
ments of grain, it is said, represent
grain from country elevators and from
farmers who have no facilities to pro-
tect their wheat against the weather.
Records show that since July !,
1890, Kansas City has received a.
000,0a bushels of wheat compared
with 100000 bushels during the
corresponding period last year, The
Kansas crop was estimated at 49,
100000 bushels this year. about the
same as that of last year, but the
receipts at Kansas City show a fall
ing off of about one-third.
The latest report of ]. c. Mohier
Kansas secretary of agriculture. says
that Kansas farmers still have IT,
o00, 900 bushels of the 1920 crop or
hand. compared with 50.00o,0oC
bushels last year. Reports that Kan
sas mills are grinding less wheat thar
last year thus increasing proportion
atel.- the movement of wheat to mar
ket, coupled with Secretary Mohier's
report, fits in with the reported re-
ceipts at Kansas City.
During TIE week of December 6 to
II, railroads reported 1,045 ears OF
wheat received at Kansas City and
1866 cars shipped out.

TEACH FIRE PREVENTION.
should Be Made Part of School Course,
Says Fire Marshal.

Fire prevention should be taught in
the public schools as a regular part OF
the course of study, in the opinion of
Frank A. McIvor, deputy state fire
marshal.
For many years the science of
health has occupied prominent place
in the curriculum of our schools and
colleges, and it is right that it should"
said McIvor. Next in importance to
the science of health is the science of
conserving life and property against
fire, that is. fire prevention, and it
should. by all means, occupy a place
in the curriculum of every school in
our. country"
Illustrating the need for fire pre-
vention, MeIvor points out that the
United States occupies the position OF
second place. in the entire world in per
capita fire loss = $2.26 - Canada oc-
cupying the first place with $2.73. In
France the fire loss is "a cents per
capita, and in England, 81 cents. In
Switzerland it is 10 cents and in the
Netherlands 1 cents, the lowest of any
recorded country.
AS indicative of what can be done
by study of preventive methods, Nc,
Ivor cites Manitoba, Canada. A few
years ago, he says, fire loss there
amounted to IS per capita. Last year
it was sass. Fire prevention has been
studied and practieed by the people OF
Manitoba for a number of years.
McIvor declares that a very large
percentage of fires are easily pre-.
ventable by exercise of little care and
! forethought.

Dublin, Dec. 15,-Searches for evil
dence against the promoters of Sim
Fein outrages which are conducted by
the police or military authorities are
among the notable features of life In
Dublin. They usually take place in
the daytime or in the early morning
hours.
In making them. the authorities
had committed some blunders. The
military motor trucks used to drive
up in front of a suspected house and
stop there while the searchers entered
the building The trucks were left in
charge of only few men. This proved
tempting to Sim Fein attacks which
frequently surprised those on guard.
No risk is taken now. The whole
street, no matter what its Importance,
is cleared OF all traffic for a distance
on both sides of the suspected house
and the searchers can thus do their
work without apprehension of being
taken in the rear.
The fact that house is raided inn
plies no reflection on its owners. Some
of the most respected of Dublin
Unionists have had their premises ex-
haustively searched. There have been
several searches in Saokville street

Western Union Seeks TO Restrain Mem
hers of Wilson's Cabinet.

suit in the District of Columbia su-
preme court today for an injunction
restraining the secretaries of state,
war and navy from interfering with
the proposed connection of the COM
pany's cable from the new cable line
from Barbados where it connects
with a British cable to South America.
The company complains to the
court that Secretary Colby has threat
ened that if an attempt is made to
connect with the Barbados cable by
the use of three cable lines now exist
ing between Key West, and Cojimer,
Cuba, the government will take steps
which the petitioner interprets to
mean that these cables long in use,
will be torn up by government order.
