WOOL TARIFF IN new
BILL 25C A POUND
Importations VIII Pay on Secured
Instead Of Grease Basls--Big
Fight ON Lumber
Schedule
Telegram Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON. June 23--while
the wool schedule in the new tariff
Is not complete and is one OF the
primary causes of the delay in get
ting this measure on the floor Of the
house, Il is now known definitely
that the tariff basis for the importa-
tion of wool will be on secured
basis, and not on a grease basis.
Duty 25c A Pound
Tho duty will be 25 cents per
pound, and the American producer
OF wool will be protected to the full
eat extent by this decision.
Lumber and metals are a schedule
that the ways and means committee
is also having much difficulty with.
An effort Is being made either to
keep lumber on the free list or put
II on a retallatory schedule, which
means that countries not levying d
duty on forest products OF the
United States would get free entry
for similar products sent across our
borders and would have TO pay a
duty similar TO that imposed by
them on our products.
In spite OF all assurances TO the
contrary. there appears no prospect
OF the tariff bill being reported "a
the house much before July 1, and
II will have stormy passage In
both houses.

FL PASO, Tex. July S.-In the
 United States district court here to-
 day the district attorney moved the
 forfeiture of the bonds of George
 Holmes, S10.000 in one case and S5000
 in another. Holmes, who is a
 brother-in-law of Francisco Villa, and who long was recognized as the former rebel chiefs representative on
 the border. was convicted on two counts of conspiracy to steal war munitions from the United States army and transport them to Mexico
 He was sentenced to serve five and three years in the penitentiary. Ap- peal of the cases was taken to the circuit court of appeals and later 10 the supreme court of the United States. Receiving early information of the denial of his appeal in the
 court of last resort, Holmes joined Villa in Mexico and remained with him until the rebel chief made his peace with the government of Mexico. For the last six months Holmes has been engaged in business in Juarez.
 The property involved in the trans action for which Holmes was sen- | fenced consisted of Browning auto matic rifles, Vickers machine guns, l Springfield service rifles and large quantity of ammunition. all of which
 was taken from an army camp on the
 Rio Grande at the northern limits of Fl Paso. Two soldiers and two civ ilians are serving terms in the peni- | tentiary for their part in the affair."

WASHINGTON, July s-Forecasts of the country's principal farm crops, made today by the department of agriculture from their July 1 condi- tion, indicate there Will be no rec ord breaking production in any crop with the possible exception of corn. Conditions during June caused re- duction in the production of every crop as compared with last months estimates.
 All crops except corn are well below last years production and in some in- stances below the average produc- tion of five years prior to 1920. To- bacco production will be one- third less than the five year average. The potato crop will be smaller by 53,000,- 900 bushels than a year ago. Rice production will be onfy a little more than half as large as last year and apple production will be less than half of last years crop-
 The wheat crop showed a decline Of 21.000, 900 bushels during June, winter wheat showing a reduction of 5.000.0s9 bushels and spring wheat 16, 900, 900 Sushel. Kansas winter wheat showed improvement during the month, as did that of Nebraska and Oklahoma, but in Ohro. Indiana and ulinois and Missouri; the forecasts showed a reduction. Every one of the important spring wheat states showed reduction as compared with a month ago.
 Corn this year was in the best condition 1t has been in on July l in more than a score of years, it being 6.5 points higher than a year ago and "A points higher than the 10 year average. With favorable weather, officials believe the crop may sur- pass last years record breaking crop. All important producing states, ex- ception Ohio. Iowa., Missouri, Ne- braska and Kansas. showed larger acreages this year than last. The latter states only show slightly smaller acreages than a year. ago. Larger crops of corn than last year are forecast for Indian. Illinois. Min nesota and South Dakota. There was an increase in the corn acreage in every southern state.
 Rice shows the heaviest reduction in acreage compared with a year ago. it being 35.4 per cent, while the tobac- co acreage reduction is 29.4 per cent, cotton 28.4 per cent and flax BOA per cent.

WASHINGTON, July 8~-Although President Harding and his legal ad- visers are understood to have virtual ly decided upon a presidential proc lamation as a means of promulgating the state of peace with the central empires, 1t was indicated that the document would not be ready for is- suance until some time next week.
 A partial draft of a proclamation was taken to the cabinet meeting to- day by Attorney General Daugherty. together with a number of memoran- dums prepared by department of jus tice officials relative to the points Of law that such a proclamation should cover. It developed, however. that so many considerations were involved as to make further study of the stat utes necessary.
 The president and many of his ad- visers were represented as holding that so far as actual termination of the war was concerned the peace res- o1ution passed by congress and signed last Saturday by the president was sufficient. In number of the emer- gency laws passed during the war, however, specific reference is made to a peace proclamation as the in- strument which will terminate the war powers conferred on the e1ecu- tive branch of the government. It is understood that this later considera- ton has weighed heavily as an argu- ment in favor of issuance of proc lamation.
