BARNES SAYS NO
FLOUR AT $40 A
BARREL 1920
Wheat Crop Promises to Exceed
Average Yield, Says Fed
eral Director

Washington, May 25.--Prospects of
$40 flour and a 25 cent loaf were swept
from the consumers horizon today by
Wheat Director julius H. Barnes in
his address before the conference OF
administrative heads Of the govern
ment and chairmen of the agricultural
committees of congress, which met in
Washington, D. c., to discuss the fu-
ture of the wheat market after the
termination of government control on
June /. . ......
Mr. Barnes also set at rest the
housewives panicky fears about Amer
ica's outlook for bread supplies. The
wheat crop in the United States pro-
misses to far exceed the average yield,
he said, unless nature proves more
than normally unkind, while the i'm
porting countries of Europe now have
crop prospects larger than those Of
last year.
In opening the conference Mr. Bar
nes also emphasized the fact that no
question of further. regulation of a
wheat price by the government was
involved in the discussion. He re-
peated his former statements that
government operation should not be
injected into private business except
in time of war, and that the wheat
market should be restored to pre-war
commercial practices even though
the transition be accompanied with
great difficulties.

Washington, May 25.-William j.

President Wilson on the question of
an American mandate over Armenia.
declaring in statement that "any
mandate is impossible"
The United States. Mr.. Bryan said,
could do more toward making the
world safe for democracy "even for
democracy in Armenia" by recogniz-
ing the Armenia republic and entering
the league of nations 'as the friend
of all little countries"
ANY mandate is impossible" said
Mr.. Bryan's statement, without other
preface
Involves Expenditure "
1.-THE one proposed for Armenia if
accepted would involve us in an enor-
nous expenditure in a time when war
taxation is still so grievous burden
that congress had difficulty in finding
money necessary to do justice to the
men who served in the world war.
"It would involve US in the politics
of Europe. and would compell us to
deal with race hatred.
1T would involve us in the fierce
commercial rivalry of the big nations.
But worst of all. it would compel
us to surrender vital principle of
democracy. namely that all people are
capable of self government"

Big Decrease in Number of Cars
Already Shown by Interstate
Commerce Commission

Washington. May 25. - Reports to
the interstate commerce commission
today from its agents throughout the
country showed a continued but slow
improvement in the railway freight
congestion situation. Members of the
commission expressed belief that the
peak of the congestion had passed and
in support of this, stated the report of
the American Railway association car
service commission, which showed a
reduction in the number of cars tied
up from $4,000 on April "a, to less
than 10000. In the meantime, there
was no let up in efforts of the govern
ment and railway officials to combat

WILLIAM LANCER ENTHUSIASTIC
OVER PROSPECTS OF CAMPAIGN:
PREDICTS SURE VICTORY IN JUNE

Fargo, n. D., May 25.-William
LANCER who was here today between
campaign speeches issued the follow
ing statement to the Independent press
OF the state:'
II find in the different counties
where | have been that the people,
especially the farmers, are most in
terested in getting the true facts Of
their state government. Some of the
men who were rabid Townley men
three years ago and one year ago, and
some of whom hauled me about in
their automobiles at that time, have
followed the insurgent state officials
and are now working as hard against
Townley as they used to work for him.
The crowds at my speeches have
amazed me- Farmers have come fifty
and sixty miles and every time | have
concluded a speech, punches of them
have come up to me and not only as
sured me of their support, but tell me

how they are going after their own
precincts and how they are going to
get rid of the bunch of socialists who
are now at the state capitol, on June
80.
Inquiry reveals that this mental at
titude is general especially among far
mers who own their own farms. In
talking with laboring men, tlnd that
Townley has made some progress
among them, which is due to misre-
presentation. AS soon as the true
facts are presented to them, there will
be no question as to where they will
stand in this campaign. Everything
is going nicely. The common people
are wanting the real facts. The lies
published in such papers as the Cour-
ier News and the North Dakota leader
they no longer believe People are
investigating with this attitude, there
is no possible doubt as to the election
June 80. Our whole ticket is going
to be nominated"

BABY GIRL BORN
AS TAXI DASHES
FOR SH ELTER
Mrs. Marvin Smith Mother of
perfect Baby in Speeding
Automobile

Z The chubby little girl of Mrs. Mar
win Smith, 410 .Mandan avenue, first
saw the light Of day from taxicab
window.
Just as the first streaks of dawn
were darting across the sky, the wall
of a newborn infant claiming a place
in the world pierced the crisp, morn
ing air.
The babys birthplace was to be in
the hospital, but the taxicaib failed
in a mighty effort to reach those shell
tering doors. 1t was about 8 a. M.
when the taxicab was called and left
the home of the Smiths at a rapid
pace. A few minutes later, just as
the taxicab pulled up at it's destina-
ton; the baby was born.
Mother and child were Immediately
in the hands of skilled attendents.
The mother is happy and well in n
downy white bed and the baby is Vi
gorously asserting it's right to be
heard as we'll as admired.
And if the baby could talk it pro-
badly would say that it might as we'll
come into this world in taxicab as
in any other way, for it weighs and
one-haf pounds and is declared by
physicians to be perfect baby.

BROTHER VISITS
MAN WHO KILLED
5 AT ONE TIME
First Opportunity Turtle Lake
Confessed Murderer Has
Had to See Folks
RUMORS ARE UNTRUTHFUL
Slayer Has Not Told Peniten-
tiary Authorities That He
is Innocent

Henry C. Layer, confessed murder
er OF the seven members of the Jacob
Wolf family and the chore boy Jake
HOfer, at Turtle Lake last month, was
permitted to have his first visitor
.Nonday. Layers brother, John Lay
er, went to the penitentiary here and
was granted permission to see Layer
who is serving a life sentence.
There have been rumOrs current in
Bismarck that Layer has claimed late
ly that he is innocent of the crime
to which he confessed and to which
he pleaded guilty Warden Mcdonald
stated today that if Layer had made
such statements he had not done SO
to the warden The authorities do
not attach much importance to the
statement, even il Layer had made it..
1t. is pointed out that Layer not
only signed his confession OF the ter
rible killing, but that he refused to
change his plea when brought before
both the justice of peace and District
Judge w. L. Nuessle at Washburn.
Both the justice and Judge 'Nuessle
gave Layer every opportunity to re-
pudiate his confession and Judge
Nuessle particularly warned Layer Of
the seriousness of the offense to
which he pleaded guilty. The Judge
also recommended to Layer that he
either ask for a postponement of the
trial or obtain lawyer, but both sug-
gestions were refused by the con-
fessed murderer who persisted in his
desire to get it over with as quickly
as possible" Layers wife, at Turtle
Lake, has not seen her husband since
his arrest, conviction and incarcera-
ton. She has moved into town with
her six children. A county pension
has been provided her.

RAIL SITUATION HINDERS

Chicago, May 25,--A general re-
vision downward of prices of all COM
modes except food, a growing tend
ency toward thrift, and improvement
in the labor situation, are three en-
couraging factors in the report Of the
seventh federal reserve district issued
today.
"a decided readjustment of the so.
cial and economic influences govern.
ing our national life is anticipated by
the business world" the report says,
with the situation complicated by
the lack of any precedent by which
business men might be guided"
Rails Disturb Situation
"Probably the most disturbing ele'
ment in the entire situation" the
statement adds. "is the almost de-
moralized condition of our railroads.

a breakdown by reason of shortage
Of freight cars and serious conges-
ton in all leading railroad centers
caused by the strike Of switchmen and
other rail workers. The credit sup

outstrips any previous total in the his
tory of the world Lastly. but no
means least important. there is the
additional complications Of growing
signs of a general revision Of prices
of all commodities with the trend in
most cases downward"
"rhe continued high price of food
is the most important exception, the
review states, adding:
Clothing Prices Down
"Other living costs, however, offer
great encouragement, particularly the
price of clothing and shoes. Explana.
ton of this situation is not hard to
find Prices of clothing and dry goods
generally had reached such heights as
to be almost prohibitive and the pub
lie quite naturally curtailed purchases
very materially. .&",..
"A most encouraging development
of the past month has been growing
tendency on the part of the general
public toward thrift. Ever since the
armistice was signed people have been
indulging in a wild spending orgie,
buying only the highest price goods
and satisfying extravaganza almost to
an extreme. This spending hysteria
now seems to be waning. although the
change is not pronounced"
