Washington, April 1.-Grain deal

aggregate S million dollars in 1917
due to the fact that the price of wheat
was fixed at 90 cents less than the
current market price.
Herbert Hoover, formerly food adj
ministrator, and Julius Barnes, pres
ident OF the government grain cor
poration were declared by the dealers
to be responsible for the losses.
I'VE used every diligence to find
out the attitude of the grain corpora
ton and food administration but got
little information" declared B. +.
Clements, president of the Texas
Grain Dealers Association, and
spokesman for the dealers from the
six states. 1--WE were told that there
was nc authority for fixing the price,
but after it was fixed we were told
we ought. to have known that they
we're going to fix the price.
Congress would never had enact

that price fixing was planned

quently becomes speckled after its
first encounter with rainstorm.
These spots are hard to get off, but a
treatment with raw oil, applied with
plenty Of elbow grease, will come as
near turning the trick as anything.
Cause Of Knocking. :
In motors with detachable CYLINDER
heads great care should be taken to
see that the gasket used to pack the
joint does not project into the combus-
tion chamber. When this occurs the
gasket is likely to become incandes-
cent, causing preignition knocks and
even back-firing in the carburetor.
Homemade Cement.
Four parts Of iron filings, two of
lime and fifth part of common salt
mixed to paste with vinegar make
an excellent cement for spark plugs,
for connecting pipes, etc. When care
fully mixed this cement will stand
compression and heat and can be air
dried.

Cut Uncle Sans Debt.

Washington, April IA reduction

more than double the amount by
which the debt was lowered during
any previous month-was accom-
plished during March, the treasury
department reported tonight. The
national debt now stands at 24608

Officials said this record could not
be used as basis for forecasting
further monthly reductions. They
regarded it, however, as Sound evil

program for financing the postwar
period when government expendi-

TEXAS TRANSPORTATION
FACILITIES HAMPERED
Difficulties Largely Due to Oil Boom
Outlined in Report of Regional
Director Bush.

Transportation conditions in Texas.
Principally due to the unusual boom
in oil, presented extreme difficulties
and have had the unremitting atten-
ton OF railroad administration Of
hcials, B. F. Bush, regional director
for the southwestern region, says in
his annual report made today to Di-
rector General Hines.
There were extraordinary condi-
tons local to the state of Texas" Mr.
Bush said. "One was an oil develop
ment unprecedented in the history of
Texas s or any other state: Another
was a rainfall of unprecedented VOL
ume In the state throughout the
year largely damaging some crops
making it exceedingly difficult to
care for others. making wagon roads
almost impossible in many parts of
the state. and last. but not least hav-
ing such deleterious effect on the
track structure as to make safe and
economical train operation most diff
ficult.
Many of the lines of railroad in
Texas are of light design and con-
struction respecting subgrade, banks,
bitches, ballast and rail, and it was
not possible to find the means to pro
vide the new capital for a substantial
Improvement in the track structure of
these lines by the application of new
and stronger materials. The third
condition was the production of a
wheat crop, principally in western
Texas, at least three times the normal
wheat crop of the state. All of these
conditions presented in themselves
the greatest difficulties to satisfactory
railroad transportation. especially
since they were supplemented by diff
hculties of a more general characte

COUNCIL OF LEAGUE
TO MEET |NLOND0N
Session, Probably February
10, to Consider Constitution
of Court of Justice.

The council of the league of nations
VIII meet In London probably Feb
ruary 10 to consider plans for the
constitution of the permanent court
of international justice. These plans
contemplate the approval by the coun-
Gil of an organizing committee of
seven or eight of the most eminent
jurists in the world to amplify the
whole structure of the court. The
choices have been made with a view
of finding men not only familiar with
the evolution of the league itself. but
also representative of the different
legal systems of the world in order
to assume that the court may be &C
ceptable and available to ell nations.
Elihu Root. former Secretary of
State of the United States, is known
to have been selected as the Ameri-
can member of the commi ssion. but
1t is not yet certain that the council
will feel free to offer him the actual
appointment in advance of this gov
ernment's ratification of the treaty.
The plan for an international court
has been one of the most discussed
of all of the league of nations provi-
sionS, and suggestions for it's consti-
tuition have poured in from all sides.
All these plans laid principal stress
upon the method of the appointment
of judges, which proved to be the
-ock on which The Hague conferences
broke. The small nations stand united
for the principle of the equality of
states and consequently of the equal
voting power of states in the selec-
ton of judges. The big powers, how
ever, have refused to intrust their in
terests to a court where they are not
assured proportionate representation.
All the plans at present submitted
avoid this difficulty by ingenious va
ration of the panel system, assuring,
first. the choice of the worlds most
e
less of nationality; second. the pres
ence of not over one or at least two
members of the same nation on the
roster; third. the disqualification of
any juLge in any case in which his
own. nation is involved. and. fourth,
the right of challenge by any nation
involved of a certain number of the
judges elected for a particular case.
with their consequent replacement by
lot from other judges on the panel.

WASHINGTON HOLY NAME
SECTION HOLDS ELECTION

The annual meeting of the Wash
lngton section of the Holy Name So
ciety was held last night at ST. Domi-
mes Assembly. Thirty-three of the
catholic churches of this city and
vicinity were represented.
The st. Mary's Holy Name Society
OF Alexandra, Va, extended an in
vitation for the section to participate
III a religious demonstration next Nav
street display and services in the
park OF that city. After discussion
the matter was unanimously adopted
and the executive committee was d.
rected to make arrangements for the
event. A similar invitation was re-
celVed from St. Margaret's Church.
Seat Pleasant, Md, for Sunday. April
Is. The reports of the various So
cietieS showed them to be in splepdid
condition. Rev. Father Moore of the
Holy Name Church, who was a chap
lam in France, and who was twice
wounded in the great war, gave an
interesting talk on Scenes and In
cldents in the Life of a Chaplain"
He told of the cooperation of chap
lains of all faiths. and said that with
MN was good Presbyterian preach
er, whom he instructed how TO act in
case ne ran into any Catholic soldiers
VINO needed consolation at the mo-
hiouI VI uedtH- Inc presbyterian car
ried the crucifiX and had written in
his prayer book the act of contrition
all Catholics say in time of such death
or accident. He promised to look
after the boys of that faith in case
he came upon them. Father Moore
said it was one of the many lessons
of the war. the brotherhood existing
between the different faiths, Catholic,
Protestant and Hebrew.
The election of officers was in the
nature of a surprise. The present
president of the Washington section,
M. ]. Driscoll of st. Dominics. owing
to law duties. declined d reelection,
and the delegates present made John
Hadley Doyle the president. Mr..
Doyle's term of Office as archdiocesan
president expires in April, and SO he
is now acting in double capacity I'M
til April. p. J. Haltigan of St Paul's
and Henry Johnson of Sacred Heart
were nominated, but declined the
honor in favor of the one elected, the
vote being unanimous.
The other officers elected were P. J.
Haltigan, vice president; Mathew Noone
of st. Stephens, secretary; John J.
Curtin of st. Joseph's. treasurer, and
Capt. Harry Walsh of st. Aloysius,
marshal.
The next meeting takes place at
Holy Trinity in April.
