EXPLOSIVES FOR
FARMERS READY
BIG STOCK OF EXPLOSIVES LEFT
FROM WAR TO BE USED IN I'M
PROVING LANDS OF NATION
100000 Pounds of Picric Acid Now
Available For Farmers in I'M
proving Agricultural Lands
Says Authorities

Washington-More than 100000 900
est known explosives, accumulated for
war purposes and made useless to the
war department by the armistice, will
be distributed to farmers for agricul-
tural purposes.
When the war ended the army had
on hand this immense stock of picric
acid, and in addition more than 49,
100000 pounds of T. n. Il. The lat
ter was distributed to various govern
mental agencies for use in railroad
construction in Alaska, public roads
in the national parks and various pro
Ijects on Indian reservations. None of
the II. n. II. was distributed to indiv-
uals and thus far not a single accident
has marked the use or transportation
of the millions of pounds of the high
explosive, according to officials of the
bureau of mines.
The question of what to do with the
II, 100000 pounds Of pIcric acid puz-
zled government officers for som
time, and the war department had al
most decided to tow the explosive out
to sea and dump it overheard In the
interests OF the public safety, when 1t
was decided to institute a series of ex-
periments In an effort to find som
safe commercial use for 1t. The ex-
periments were conducted by the bur
eau of mines and disclosed many ways
in which picrlc acid could be used
safely and proitably on farms, such
in blasting out stumps and rocks
and breaking up land. 1t was accord
ingly decided to distribute the explo-
sive. practically free Of charge, to
farmers.

der having a lemon yellow color, is

cording to the bureau of mines. 1t

say. and its used should be restricted

GERMAN PRISONS
PHILIP FRITZ KoPP SPENDS

Imperial Officials Prefer Charge

Pleasant Grove, Utah.-Phillip Fritz
ly after a year and a half In Germany,
nine months of which were spent in he
German war prison at Liegnitz, where
he was held on false charges.
Kopp and his wife left here in Jan
uary, 1920, to visit relatives and friends
in Germany and Alsace-Lorraine. In
the places Kopp visited, he states there
was much dissatisfaction among the
people, and that there had been sew
eral revolts. While visiting in Ger
many, Kopp and some friends were
arrested during one of these local
uprisings. and placed in the war pris-
on at Liegnitz. He vas first charged
with being a Stacker to the German
army. and as the officials refused to
believe he was an American citizen he
was fined 200 marks, or about $3.50 in
American money, which he paid.
Mrs. Kopp, being unable to free her
husband, returned to America, and
brought with her the passports, the
only proof they had of her husbands
citizenship; consequently he was oblig-
ed TO remain In prison, with no hearing
or trial. though entirely ignorant of the
second charge against him. After
about six months of waiting for trial,
he began to think he had been forgot
ten by the officials, * he wrote his
wife and asked her to appeal to the
government for his release. Mrs. Kopp.
wrote to Senator Smoot, whose efforts
brought forth immediate action. Kopp
was placed on trail January %, 1921,
at the criminal division of the county
court at Liegnitz. charged with coun-
terfeting.

SILVER DOLLAR IS
NOW BEING COINED
U. S. MINIS RESUMES WORK OF
COMING SILVER DOLLARS TO
MEET SHORTAGE SINCE WAR
27o,0oo,o 900, Standard Silver Dollars
Were Sold to Great Britain Dur
ing Mar And Will Not Be Re-
deemed by U. s. Government

Washlngton.-Coinage of silver dol
lars has been resumed by the min
after seven years and the work of re.
placing 10000, 900 standard silver dol.
lars taken from the treasury during
the war to sell to Great Britain has
started.
Since March treasury officials SAID
Saturday, approximately 20,000,000 sill
yer dollars have been coined. In the
same period corresponding amounts OF
silver certificates were issued and fed
eral reserve notes and treasury certih-
Gates securing them retired. This pro-
cess, officials said, will probably con-
tinue five years, until the treasury's
reserve Of silver dollars is back to its
prewar basis.
The mint, officials explained, ceased
coming silver dollars in 1914, when the
supply of metal purchased under the
coinage act was exhausted. Further
authority TO make the dollars was not
forthcoming until 1913, when congress
Pooota hit IA at " hhb ~
sale of melted dollars TO England for
the relief of the silver famine in In
dia.
Under the act Director of the mint
Baker sold to England 279 1000, 900 sill
yer dollars, amounting to POS, 10000
ounces of silver, at S1.01h an ounce
plus the market price of the copper con

Since May 1920 the mint has bought
about $4,000, 900 ounces of American
silver at 81 an ounce and will continue
to purchase at this price until the
treasury's stock Is replenished.
Although the Pittman act requires
the mint to pay 81 an ounce for Its
silver. Mr.. Baker declared inquiries are
received demanding why the govern
ment pays so much more than the a
set price. The price was fixed by the act
he stated, to stabilize the price Of sill
yer when there were indications Of Its
reaching unheard of heights during the
war. AS a result of combining the
~treasury's purchases to silver both pro-
duced and reduced in this country, the
american silver mining industry was
protected from foreign competition. Mr..

BORAH PROPOSAL
WINS LONG FIGHT
AGREEMENT ON NAVAL APPRO-
PRIATioNs REACHED BY HOUSE
AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION
Idaho Senator Wins Battle Against
Great Odds; Speech by Lloyd
George Was influential Fac
tor in Senator's Favor

Washington - An agreement has
been reached by the c~onferees on the
naval appropriation bill paving the
way for the passage of the Borah
amendment for a conference on In
ternational curtalment of naval ex.
pansion.
The house leaders, it is understood,
have agreed TO abandon their substi-
tute for the Borah proposal. the sen
ate in turn yielding the elimination
of nearly all the S9S,000,000 increase
in the naval appropriation made by
the senate.
Charges have been made that the
substitute proposal was designed to
kill the Borah amendment. Republic
can leaders in the house announced
last week that they would press their
substitute to a vote as an entirely
separate resolution on Monday. When
they began a canvas of the situation
they discovered that there was a
strong sentiment against their plan
among the Republicans and that they
would have to combat a healthy in
surgent move.
The Ohio delegation, composed en-
tirely of Republicans held a confer
ence and decided to bolt, although
there were differences as to the meth
cd of boiling. Some of the OhiOians
announced that they would stand by
the Borah amendment, while others
wanted Representative Burton, n of
the leading international authorities
in congress-, to draft q substitute. Mr..
Burton drafted a substitute, but the
Republican members of the foreign af-
fairs committee turned it down. Then
the Wisconsin delegation went on the
rampage and decided, almost unani-
molsly, t support the Borah resolu-
ton.
With this situation behind them, the
house confrees went into the naval
conference Tuesday in a badly weak
ened condition. The argument was
made that dragging in the whole
question of disarmament on land as
well as on sea would involve the ques-
ton of cutting down naval expendl-
lures in hopeless entanglement. ON
the other hand, it was pointed out
that the United States, without walt
ing for action of other powers, has cut
the size of its army to 10000 men,
leaving hardly enough for policing
purposes.
Another influential factor in the
situation was the speech of Premier
Lloyd George Monday, in which he
expressed willingness on the part OF
the British government to enter into
a naval building holiday with the
United States and Japan. In this
connection, Senator Borah issued a
statement, in which he declared that
public sentiment in all three countries
is practically united in favor of cut
ting down naval expenditures.
1.-The opportunity is here for the
United States to lead the way" said
Senator Borah. "If we falter or re-
fuse. the situation will be. so far as
the naval race is concerned, precisely
as 1t was between Germany and Eng
land after their failure to get a CON
ference from 1900 to 1905. To con
tinue on such a course is sheer mad

Utah Senators Against Bonus

Washington, d. C.-Neither OF the
Utah senators looks with favor on the
passage of the soldier bonus at the
present session, their opposition being
based on state of federal n and
the fact that passage Of the n bill
now would mean the levying Of heavy
additional taxes. There is far less
western sentiment for the bonus bill
reported Monday by the finance COM
mittee than for the original bill, as
the present measure makes no provis-
lon whatever for the reclamation or
arid or other lands to provide soldier
homes.
