of strengthening the allied forces In
the region must first be settled, and
also warned the British that any hos

result in the immediate occupation OF

Premier Lloyd George, on his part,
consented to a meeting of experts to

also conciliated the French by giving
the German government q sharp re-

send more troops to Silesia, she asked
the Germans to supply the transpor-

President Harding and Director Gen

railroad administration as evidence of
the railroad debts to the government

COMET
WILL VISIT US
THIS SUMMER
Celestial Guest Will Bring

WASHINGTON, D. C-We are to be
visited this summer by Winnecke's comet.
To many people who do not realize that
about five comets are casually hailed by
astronomers every year, the approach Of
this comet has been taken as significant
of war, famine. the end Of the earth. or
some other great change in the worlds
fortunes The superstitions connected
with comets are being repeated IN awe

1t seems written in the stars that men
should regard the w-abiding comet as
n portent displayed expressly as an ad-
vertisement of calamity. for all through
history comets have been linked with IN
usual happenings.
The fall of Troy was accompanied by
the appearance of a comet, according to
Virgil. and the deaths Of Constantine,
Attila the Hun, and Charlemagne were
said to have been announced each by a
hairy star passing across the sky. A
comet appeared the year Napoleon was
born. or perhaps to be more accurate,
Napoleon was born the year the great
comet of 1869 appeared.
An English magazine in 1912 scientific

WORKING GIRLS
HAVE LEAGUES
OF PROTECTION
Popular Idea That Women
Are Traitors to Their Sex
Not Exactly True.

NEW YORK CITY-There still exists
today a popular superstition that women
are traitors to their own sex. that they
Gght a petty, guerilla warfare among
themselves, and that when a woman is
down and out it is invariably q man who
comes nobly and disinterestedly to her
rescue.
This may be true In some places, espe-
ciaIly in the masculine mind, but it isn't
so In New York Here Women for Won
en-" is n popular slogan in the business
and Industrial worlds, and the city Is
filled with feminine clubs and societies
whose sole object is the assistance or pro
motion OF their own sex.
One Of the most interesting of these
is an organization Of working girls.
known as the Girls Service League, which
Is dedicated to the aid and protection of
girls who work. Every cir; on Its mem
bership list is constantly on the lookout
for signs Of distress or unhappineSt
among her friends and acquaintances.
When Laura, the landlady's daughter,
suddenly falls into deep depression, or
when Katie comes to the factory with
eyes red from weeping, the G.. S. l.. mem
Der does not remain an innocent by
stander. Usually, she puts q tractful
arm around Laura or Katie, and says
Say, kid, II there's anything wrong,
come on up to the club and talk 1t over
with our secretary.
The league has two clubhouses in diff
ferent sections of the city, each possess
ing a free dormitOry of some twelve or
fifteen beds, and an employment agency.
Girls who are stranded in New York are
welcome to the clubs hospitality at any
time of the day or night. Girls rescued
from various dangers and delinquencies
by social workers Of the New York Pro-
baton and Protective Association are
also taken in at the clubhouses. Those
who need medical care are sent to hos
piltal or clinic; those who are out OF
work are found jobs through the club
employment agencies, and others, whose
conditions demands it, are sent to a con-
valescent home in the country.
The leagues clubrooms are large and
cheerful, with bookcases full OF good
books a piano and Victrola and many
games, including parcheesi and checkers
The girls are privileged to entertain
their young men friends here or sew
eral nights a week, while every Saturday
night a club dance is given. Lectures on
health and thrift and working condt-
lions also take place every so often, to
which parents as well as the girls are
often invited.
The objects Of the league, as set forth
In its constitution, are as follows: To
protect girls from moral danger. To
promote moral education. To encourage
right thinking and clean conversation,
To improve conditions Of work for girls,
To secure wholesome recreation for girls,

FARMERS PLAN
GRAIN MARKETING
Secretary Wallace Approves
Cooperative Work.

CHICAGO. April 6-Plans for coopera-
tive marketing OF grain were worked ont
by Representatives Of leading farmers
organizations Of the nation here today.
Henry c. Wallace Secretary OF Agricul-
ture, conferred with the farmers on the
marketing plans ana assured them OF
Government assistance in selling their
grain.
Wallace declared that there was Just
as much reason why the Government
should assist the farmer In developing
methods for marke ing his crops eff
GENTLY as tdere is Cor aiding him e.
increasing production.
Farmers must give attention TO the
business en- dot their business II the Ma
ton 10 to maintain Its agriculture on a
sound economic basis" Wallace declared.
The cooperative marketing plan was
worked out by committee Of seven
teen" appointed last July. The meeting
here today WAS held to ratify their pro-
pOsals
G. H. Gustafson, chairman of the com
mittee of seventeen" in presenting the
report. declared the plan will not Inter
fere with existing farm organizations.
1t is purely cooperative plan offered
in competition with the existing unsat-
factory methods" he said.
Discussing the proposal for marketing
OF grain through cooperative organization
James X. Howard, president of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation, declared
IL marked "sun-up for American agrl~
culture"
Secretary wallace, in addressing the
conference, declared there was no ques-
ton but that farmers were entitled TO
organize for cooperative marketing.
Wallace described the cooperative mar
keting plan as one which will enable
us TO get our grain from the producer to
the consumer more Cheaply, in better con
diti0n and with less waste
In the past, the American farmer has
been a wonderful producer but a very
poor salesman" Secretary Wallace stated.
The Secretary made the following points
as paramount in solution OK grain mar
keting problems:
1. Thorough inquiry into cost OF mar
keting at every stage from farmer to CON
sumer.
2 II there are points where men nre
taking too much toll for service in hand
ling grain. 1t should be made known,
g. Elimination Of guesswork in mar
keting.
There is no attempt on the farmers
part to create a monopoly or arbitrarily
fix prices" he said.

Wheat-As mas been the case hereto
fore. the decline in wheat prices has been
attractive to foreigners and there has
been more or less business done, both for
May shipment and for July-August ship
ment. Reliable estimates as to the
amount are not forthcoming. Sand
storms were reported in parts OF Ne
braska but ignored. The weather bureau
weekly crop report mentions damage in
southern Illinois and Missouri by the
recent freeze. Freezing temperatures are
predicted for tonight in the far west
Offerings from the country are still very
limited in volume. 1t would seem to us
that the most constant foreign demand
for wheat corn and rye coupled with
the refusal Of the country to sell cash
wheat freely, should result in an even
stronger cash situation than now exists.
The better grades of wheat are selling
II to Is cents over the May. The crop
report due tomorrow will probably cor
roborate the private advices OF excellent
outlook but this has been so widely ad-
vertised that it has probably had fun
influence on values.
Corn and Oats-Receipts Of both corn
and oats have fallen off materially and
the country Is not selling. Their Is
fair domestic demand for oats and some
is not large enough to tighten the hedg
ing load resting upon these two markets.
We do rot expect any permanent show
Of strength.
Provisious-Smaller packers were
sellers Of the provision list and there
was some selling by houses with
British connection This market lacks
important support and gives no evidence
Of ang revival Of interest

KANSAS WHEAT
DAMAGE HIGH
Says Farmers Did Not Plough
Under Wheat Crop.

SALIVA, Kan. April 6.-The rains of
the past forty eight hours in central and
western Kansas have improved the gen
eral crop conditions.
This especially true Of wheat which
was top frozen" by the Easter freeze.
The damage done to wheat as a result
OF the Easter freeze cannot be estimated
for few days, farmers stating it will
be necessary to wait and view the re-
action following the rain. The moisture
will revive the wheat not killed.
Maurice McAuliffe, president Of the
Kansas Farmers Union, estimated that
the general wheat acreage is one tenth
less than last year.
He stated that the Easter freeze and
recent March winds have damaged the
wheat at least 80 per cent He is Of the
opinion that this damage extends
throughout Kansas In several counties
the wind and cold weather damage ex-
ceeds 70 per cent, he said
The farmers did not strike, neither was
any wheat plowed under this spring Nc
