The two great agencies of the allies
the supreme council and the council
of the League of Nations-began ses-
sions last week, the former in London
and the latter in Paris. The league
council first took up the matter of
amendments to the covenant, and, be-
cause the attitude of the incoming adj
ministration in America was in doubt,
the question was referred to COM
mittee which will not report before
April. This gives Mr.. Harding time to
define his position on the league.
Then the mandates were brought up
for consideration, and again the
United States, though not officially
represented, made its influence felt.
Ambassador Wallace sent word that
our State department wished to pre-
sent it's views, and action was halted
until the note from Washington ar
rived This note, in substance, called
attention to the fact that the United
States has never given it's consent
that the island of zap be included in
the territories subjected to the man.

the United States an equal concern
and interest with the other principal
allied and associated powers in the
disposition of the overseas posses

President-elect Harding's announce
ment of his completed cabinet may
not have aroused any loud cheers of
enthusiasm, but it was received with
quiet satisfaction and confidence by
a large part of the public. Though
the list of ten names does not include
those of many men of towering emf
nence, it is felt by most Republicans.
at least, that all the members of the
new cabinet are men with ideas and
opinions and that they will be actually
the advisers of the chief executive.
The only real surprise among the APP
pointments was that of Edwin DENLY
of Michigan to be secretary of the
navy. Not that he is not well equipped
to fill the position, but he was barely
mentioned in advance. The selec-
ton of Mr.. Hoover for the portfolio
of commerce was gratifying to the
public, and that of Mr.. Davis for sec
rotary of labor pleased most of the
organized labor forces of the country,
though he is no longer directly con-
nected with their activities.
Frank Lowden, having declined APP
pointment, Illinois received no place
in the cabinet. But many persons are
hoping that Mr.. Harding will per-
,suade Charles Dawes of Chicago to
accept the Craftsmanship of the COM
mission he will name to reorganize
the executive machinery Of the gov
ernment This position, Mr.. Harding
holds, will be almost if not quite as
important as a place in the cabinet

ASK TO PROBE ALLEGED
MISTREATMENT OF MEXicANS

Austin, Tex.-Secretary of State
Charles E. Hughes has sent another
note to the governor urging an investi-
CATION of allegations of mistreatment
to Mexican residents of Texas, also de-
failing charges submitted to the secre-
tary of state by consular representa-
tives of the present Mexican govern
ment.
In this note, which is the third so
far received by the governor, refer
ence is made to alleged mistreatment
of Mexicans at Briggs, Texas. A Mex
lean translation of the complaint sent
by Secretary of State Hughes is to the
effect that one Emilio Olivares was
assaulted in Burnet County, and Petro
Aguilar, an interpreter, kidnapped so he
would not be witness to the alleged
assault
A protest is also made to the COVER
nor of alleged peonage cases involv-
ing Mexicans near Bastrop, Texas,
the allegation being that 76 MeXicans
were worked on bridges and roads for
which work they were never compen-
sated. An investigation of the mat
ter is being made By the governor.

The gratitude and loyalty of mem
berS of the American Legion to their
comrades of the Grand Army of the
Republic is illustrated by the Legion
post at Schuyler, Neb., which is en-
deavoring to obtain aid for Civil war
veteran of that city, who is suffering
from cancer.
The post is in need of advice as
to how we can assist this hero of an
other war;" the post commander
writes. 'He is stopping with relatives
who are doing all they can, but since
they have to employ nurse, | know
that they cannot continue TO care for
him because of lack Of funds.
Now, we would like to have you
take it up and see if something can't
be done for the old veteran. This is

FARMERS OF NATION
FORM MARKET PLAN
Local Agencies for Handling
Grain to Be Formed
Throughout Country.

Chicago Representative Of the
farmers of the country, in convention
Thursday, voted unanimously 10 ac
cept the report of the committee of II
which provided for formation of CO
tiOns grain.
The report was adopted after two
day fight in which various delegates
sought to have it amended so that
pooling of grain by the farmers would
be compulsory instead of optional as
provided in the report.
An amendment to this effect was de
feated Thursday by vote of 81 TO 3S
Another amendment offered by Carl
Williams of Oklahoma that the pool
ing be made compulsory in States
where wheat is the predominant grain
also was defeated and the convention
then unanimously adopted the COM
mittee of It's report.
Under the plan a nonstock corpora
ton will be forced through which the
grain will be handled from the time it
is raised until it reaches the manu-
facturer or consumer.
Local agencies will be formed
throughout the country and elevators,
terminal warehouse corporations, port
corporations, service departments and
other subsidiary departments will be
a part of the plan. Each member of
the corporation will pay fee of $40,
which will be used for expenses. Sur
plus over expenses will be returned to
the members.
The organization will be governed
by board of directors elected by the
grain growers.
The committee of II has been at
work for six months on the plan. Dur
ing that time it has held hearings in
all the grain states, called scores OF
persons to discuss the plan and sifted
dozens of proposals.
Organization of the corporation will
be begun Immediately and it is hoped
to have it working in time to handle
part of the 1921 crop.
