yet they never even tickled his nerve.
When Francis feeling was taken out of a
Dublin Jail on the eve of his execution in
British uniform that had been boldly
smuggled to him, after it had been stolen
with the aid of three charmingly innocent
little Cumann Bna Baughan girls, it was
Collins and his copartner, Red Mulcahy,
who drove to within hundred yards of
the prison, where hundreds of armed men
would have shot either on sight, the Ford
car into which feeling stepped and was
hurried off. No job was too big, or too
small, for Collins.
1t will be remembered that he did not
appear in public until after the truce had
been actually arranged And it was dis
cretion for him not to. There were scores
of men in Dublin in those days yearning
to put notch on their gun and 100000 in
the bank for Michael Collins, dead. Many
of these men are still in Ireland and
large part of their lust for Michael Col
lins's hide is due to fighting mans simple
eagerness to avenge pal Most Of these
men have now probably had a look at
Collins for the first time. 1t is the gossip
in Dublin that Collins will live but a very
few hours after the recommencement of
hostilities.
But even Collins's enemies say that is not
the controlling reason for Collins's anxiety
for peace. He knows what war in Ireland
means, not only to himself but to thousands
of Irish men, women and children. He hon
estly believes that to gain more than the
present offer, even if such gain were pos
sible, is not worth the cost of more Irish
lives
His passionate oratorical brilliancy dur
ing the past few days is something of a
surprise even to those who knew him we'll
He was always forceful talker in confer
ences but seldom made use of the devices
on the sentimental side of rhetoric. AS a
.planner, statistcian and leader of men
he had shown his powers. The develop
ment of this new force of oratory will make
him loom large in the days to come foI
Ireland and the Empire. II Griffith sue
ceeds De Valera at the head of the Irish
Government, Collins will probably be again
Minister of Finance. though there is also
much talk favoring him as the titular head
of the new State.

Lincoln, Nebr.-Fifty-eight years of
residence in America were not enough
to induce Oscar Eugene Deinert, of
Emerald, Neb., TIC familiarize himself
with the American language and in
situations of government. AS a result
his application for final citizenship
papers was denied at a naturalization
hearing in which American Legion
members testified.
Deinert is sixty-five years old, OF
German birth, came to this country
fifty-eight years ago and applied for
his first naturalization papers forty
one years ago.
Naturalization Examiner TObin
sought to dismiss Dement'S applica-
ton on allegations of unfamiliarity
with the American language, disloyal-
ty to the government and that he
voted illegally at a primary election
in April, 1920.
American Legion members testified
that Deinert was a leader in an at
tempt to drive the American language
out of a German church i'm Emerald
and that he took an active part in
preventing Legion speakers from dis
cussing Americanism in the church
after they had been invited by the
church pastor.

9Th article Of a series Of financial questions published by the

1920 the Federal Reserve Board has demonstrated a
very keen and active interest in agriculture and live
stock, and its regulations and informal opinions in
depreciation upon the law for the benefit of these
classes. 1t has authorized heavy borrowings by the
Federal Rerserve Banks in agricultural districts from
other Federal Reserve Banks located in manufacture
ing and industrial districts. During the closing
months of the year Eastern Federal Reserve Banks
were extending, with the authority of the Federal
Reserve Board, very liberal credit to the agricultural
Federal Reserve Banks in the West and South. Al
no time has the Federal Reserve Bank encouraged the
contraction of agricultural credits for the benefit of
the non-agricultural portions of the country, nor has
it at any time extended to the non-agricultura1 por-
tions any more liberal treatment than to the farming
and stock raising districts.

SELL DOLLAR WHEAT
IN CHICAGO FIRST
Time IN five YEARS
By WILLIAM r.. sANBoRN


When December wheat struck 80
cents at Chicago. on Thursday. it was
at the lowest point since October 1915.
At the same time the whole line OF
grains was at the lowest on the crop.
and also at the loves Figures in re-
cent years.
Looks as If the bears raided the
market, you say? But that isn't true.
The great wheat buyers and specula-
tors are loaded to the ears with real
wheat; it is greatly TO their disadvant-
age to have the bottom fall out of the
market.
1t was a day OF wild and feverish
trading on the floor. No doubt of that.
whatever. Men went off that floor as
limp as rags at the close of session
lasting less than 4 hours; beginning at
$50 and ending at lis.
Days of Dollar Wheat.
We can all remember when farmers
set 81 as the ideal price for wheat.
And how many millions of bushels
have been grown and sold for consider
ably less? With reference to 81 wheat,
James A. Patton, once known as the
wheat king because OF the magnitude
OF his operations and mis- millions made
in speculation. said: Dollar wheat
was once the farmers slogan. 1t was
in fact his battle cry Today 81 a
bushel doesn't pay the cost of growing
it."
And we all know Mr.. Patton is
right. Incidentally, he says that he
hasn't got a nickel in the wheat
market. Il was afraid of it," said he
Wheat Off 40 Cents.
At the opening on Friday morning
the range on December wheat was Csc
TO 99c. This showed a loss Of 40 cents
per bush'el. compared with the high
point on that option.
The underlying conditions which
caused this break are the same as
those which have caused the general
declines in commodities. In the case
of wheat the pressure has been accen-
uated by a comparative limitation of
the world demand, owing to financial
pressure on exchange, and the lack of
credits on the part OF much of Europe.
THE Canadian Surplus
The fact that Canadian elevators are
still choked with wheat and the mani
fest desire of the Canadians to get
wheat in store, or sold before winter
sets in, has brought great pressure to
bear on exporters, which has been
reflected abroad. Consider, too, that
the homegrown crops, large or small
are now available in all foreign coun
tries, and that buyers abroad can
afford TO wait awhile, being assured OF
supplies from America and the Argen
tines, when ready to buy.
In any event the action of the mar
ket tells its own story. There is little
buying power. Immense amounts Of
cash are tied up in the grain owned
by the best supporters of values. We
have unloaded wheat too freely, al
whatever price the market afforded
And we began that operation earlier
than usual, the harvest being early

belts.
Mllers Break Prices
Millers have been complaining of a
slow demand for flour, and have in
the case of some great mills, reduced
their output or temporarily closed
down. In such circumstances they are
not large buyers of wheat and thai
support withdrawn, the situation be
came that much weaker.
The optimist believes that all these
