GAMBLING BAN
ON GRAIN URGED
Capper Says Congress Must
Deal With Farm Products
Market Abuse.
THINKS TIME NOW RIPE
Situation Growing Critical
Throughout Country, Says
Kansas Senator.
THINKS TIME NOW RIPE

Legislation prohibiting gambling
in the grain and cotton exchange on
future deliveries of farm products
will be almost unavoidable during
the coming short session of Con-
gress. in the opinion of Senator
Arthur Capper, of Kansas, who ar
rived in Washington late Sunday.
The situation is extremely crit
icaI, especially in the Middle West,
Senator Capper said. There is a
vague, ugly feeling among farmers
over the violent fluctuations in
prices OF farm products which they
feel is not entirely due to the law
of supply and demand"
Thinks Time Is Ripe.
Whilo the question of restricting
rambling in futures is an old one
and many bills have been introduced
in the past, Senator Capper believes
the present time Is the psychological
moment for the passage Of such
legislation He declared he would
introduce a bill Immediately after
Congress convenes.
Immediately after the opening
last Julg Ol Nuc SulCdBO SEdln cA-
change, which had been closed dur
ing the war" Senator Capper said,
prices Of farm products began to
fiuctuate violently with bears in
control forcing the market DOWN
ward and undoubtedly exerting a
great influence in depressing prices.
Farm organizations all over the
country are a unit in favoring legis-
lation prohibiting gambling in cot
ton, wheat, corn and oat futures
and are stirred up to a greater de-
gree than ever before.
"A move also will be made to re-
vive the war finance board. Farm
ers have been forced to market
their grain in stock on a falling
market during the last few months
below the cost Of production be-
cause Of Inadequate credit facilities.
Wants War Finance Board.
During critical situations like
the present, where prices are be-
low the cost of production, where
money is tight and credit unobtain-
able. war finance board should
function in order to work out some
sort Of relief for the farmers and
stock men. The bankers of the
country also are in favor of this
move
Another measure Capper believes
VIII be enacted into law at the COM
ing session is the so-called Capper-
HERMAN bill legalizing co-opera-
tive marketing and exempting farm
organizations from the provisions
OF the Clayton antitrust act. This
measure already has passed the
House and has been reported favor
ably to the Senate, where it is now
pending.
Senator Capper. who is a member
OF the Select Senate Committee
which Investigated conditions in
washington schools last spring,
said he had not kept in touch with
the situation during the summer.

US. ESTIMATES
'DAZECONGRESS
State and Treasury De-
mands Before Appropria-

Departmental estimates carrying
staggering figures" have been sub
mitted by Secretary of State Colby
and Secretary of the Treasury Hous-
ton. according to members of the
House Committee on Appropriations,
who are framing the bills for the
coming session.
Estimates coming from the War
and Navy departments show some
efforts at reductions in keeping
with the fact that the war is over.
but the figures submitted by the
State and Treasury departments
simply overwhelm u.s." said one
member of the committee last night.
Representative James w. Good, of
Iowa said the Appropriations Com
mittee, of which he Is chairman,
does not intend to appropriate any
more money than is absolutely
necessary for the efficient opera
tion of governmental departments
When asked as to the number OF
persons on various government pay
rolls throughout the country. he
said:
The Civil Service Commission re-
Gently reported something over $780,
600. but there are others, i under
stand. that the commission does not
know about / should say we have
between 100000 and 100000 gov
ernment employees. including the
postal service-a veritable army of
them"

Editor of The Reformer:-
Just a word regarding the tax col
lector job. 1t would almost appear
from statements in The Reformer that
Mr.. Haus was Indifferent as to his can
didacy, and although he would accent
the office if elected, it would almost
have to be thrust upon him.
l believe that the real facts are that
Mr. Haus does not wish to enter a con
test where real old fashioned, parti-
san rough and tumble fight is to be
made, with all the usual characters
ties attached, but would gladly accept
the position if elected by majority of
his fellow citizens who consider him
capable, and the logical man for the
position
Mr.. Haus has been business man in
Brattleboro for 80 years, has wide
acquaintance and is universally liked
He has the diplomatic temperament fol
collector, is energetic and full OF
life. He has raised family of clean
American youths among us, has re
Gently sold out his grocery business and
is out of job, with a family to sup
port at middle life, a property holder
and would necessarily give his best OF
attention to the office. He has given
two sons to the service of his country
in its hour of need, and l think there
are many who would like to see him
collector.
Think it over, voters
