WORKING AT CROSS PURPOSES.

In the adjustment of transportation matters
two important agencies OF our government are not
only operating without the coordination and coop
Grafton which should exist, but are often actually
working at cross purposes.
The Interstate onmer commission has large
powers in all matters pertaining to railway rates and
the character of the service which the railroads must
perform. The Railway Labor board yields author
ity almost equally great over the wages which shall
be paid to railway employees, and over the conditions
under which their work shall be performed. The
latter board may be said in a general sense to gov
ern the expenditure of the railroads for labor, while
the commission determines the revenues out Of
which these expenses shall be met. Yet the two
agencies are separately organized, neither having
any jurisdiction over the other, and neither even be-
ing required to confer with the other. AS a matter
of fact, there has never been a conference of the two
bodies, and never, until within the past few days,
have any members of the one met officially with the
other group.
a. It is very clear that the Railway Labor board
cannot know what the railway companies can afford
it knows what are the resources out of which pay
ment is to be made. 1t is equally clear that the
Commerce commission cannot fix rates intelligently
without knowing what the expenses of the roads
are, and the wages of labor constitute by far the
greatest item of railway expense. Yet we have one
body determining rates and another determining
wages, each proceeding independently Of the other.
Wages and rates are so dependent on each other that
for any satisfactory result to be reached the two
must be considered together.
When the present railway law was pending in
congress the proposal to confer on the Interstate
Commerce commission the same authority over
wages that is welded by the Labor board received
the present one was substituted. The president has
undertaken to bring the two bodies at least partially
together i'm order to reach informally something of
that unity which the law fails to provide.

DEVELOP NEW WHEAT
TO RESIST SMUT
Local Experiment Station Produces
New Winter Variety Known as
Smut Proof

A real smut resistant wheat has
at last been developed at the local
experiment station. On tests run for
the past six years not a sign of smut
ETY..
The department of farm crops,
after many years of experimenting,
has finally produced what is be-
lieved to be a truly smut resistant
wheat. The new variety, which is
known as Smut Proof, is cross be-
tween Turkey Red, one of the most
popular winter wheats in this coun-
try, and Florence, a white Austral-
ian spring wheat of high quality.
Smut Proof, itself, is a hard red
winter wheat with milling quality
equalling, if not excelling Marquis,
one of the best milling wheats now
grown. The bushel weight is high,
averaging about SO pounds. In yield
Smut Proof ranks we'll up in the
Scale. A three-year test shows an av-
erage of 44.7 bushels to the acre,
which very nearly equals that OF Hy-
brid 1913, the most popular winter
wheat in this section.
If the new variety continues to do
as we'll as present results indicate, it
it estimated that it will mean say
ing of S1,O00,00O annually to this
state alone in the saving of wheat
which is ordinarily destroyed by
smut Besides this there will be a
great saving in the prevention of
smut explosions, and in labor and
chemicals used in seed treatment.
The station staff expects to expert
ment and do Improvement work on
this variety for several years more
before any of the seed is distributed
to farmers.

RUNS AWAY FROM HOLDUPS
Doris Morley Steps on Gas When
Bewhiskered Man Points Gun

Miss Doris Morley and Mrs. NJ.

were given bad scare by hold-up
men on the Pullman road on Thurs
day night of last week. Miss Morley
and Mrs. Snyder had been in Lewis
ton and came through Pullman at
about 8 p. m. When near the Saw
age corner someone behind them
honked for the road and Miss Nor
ley pulled out to the side and near
iy stopped, A roadster with two
men in the seat and a third stand
ing on the running board with a
gun in his hand. pulled up to the
side and the man with the gun
pointed it at the women and shout
ed Stop" Miss Morley stopped her
car and the man pulled around and
pointing his gun at the front tire
ordered the women to get out. Mrs.
Snyder whispered to Miss Morley,
Step on it, Miss Morley changed
TO intermediate gear and stepped
on it" swinging around the roadster
and strengthening out all curves in
the road the remainder of the way
to Colfax. Mrs Snyder looking back
saw lights following for a mile or
so, but they were gradually left be
hind. When the hold-up men were
pulling around in front of the Nor
ley car, the hat blew off the man
on the running board and the ladies
had good view of a man with
whiskers all over his face. The af-
fair was reported to the sheriff's
office.

Take Pullman's Efficient Street
Superintendent for Hold
up Man

Imagine "Milt" Hooper, Pullman $
efficient street superintendent, as a
hold-up artist! Then stretch your
Imagination a little further and vi
sion aforesaid respected city official
and citizen as a gun man whose
intended victims are unescorted and
unarmed womenI Horrors, no!
But let us explain.
Recently a fire was discovered in
the rear of the Libby building on
Grand street Pullman's valiant
fire-fighters were soon on the job
with a line of hose stretched across
the Main and Grand quadrangle
from the hydrant in front of the Tire
shop. AS usual, "Milt" Hooper was
one of the first men on the job and
he Immediately detailed himself to
the duty of preventing automobile
drivers from crossing the line of hose
After a score or more of machines
had been turned back powerful
touring car approached, with two
ladies as the sole occupants "Milt'
claims to have cautioned them not
to drive across the hose, but they
evidently disregarded his orders,
for across they went, and up West
Main street.
One of "Milt's' nnumerable Of
fetal duties is to see that the city
ordinances are rigidly enforced and
he performs that duty as efficiently
as his others. When his orders were
disobeyed, and by women, his pride
was trampled on and he resolved
to bring the offenders to justice. A
farmer was standing nearby whose
Oakland roadster was close at hand.
"Milt" Communicated the roadster
and the farmer, as well as another
citizen who was close at hand, and
the chase was on The speedometer
went up to 80 miles, then 35 40 and
As, yet it was over two miles before
the roadster was close enough so
that "Milt' could command the
ladies to halt The touring car
slowed down and the roadster
passed, but instantly the driver
of the former car stepped on
the gas and went past the
roadster at a rate that was estimat-
ed at something under 100 miles
an hour The chase was resumed
but was soon abandoned when it
became evident that the driver of
the touring car was in no mood to
be overtaken.
Disheartened but not defeated
"Milt' returned to Pullman and
phoned to the sheriff's office to get
the number of the car
But we are getting away from the
story insofar as it mas to do with
"Milt's" highwayman proclivities.
The following account of the chase,
as it appeared in the COlfax Gazette,
takes care of that part of the story,
but We are still wondering where the
street superintendent got the 'whis-
kers':

W. ;. c. LIVE STOCK
BEST IN THE WEST

With a record of Al champions
and 80 first prizes in two years and
the grand champion steer last year,
the animal husbandry department of
the State College of Washington is
now preparing to send out to the
Western Royal Livestock Show at
Spokane, October 81 to November
2, and the Pacific International at
Portland, November to II, another
bunch OF prize winners.
I'VE will take out seven head of
fat cattle to these fairs" said Pro-
fessor Howard Hackedorn, head of
the animal husbandry department.
All the cattle were fitted on the col
Iege farm.
Nine head of sheep will also be
exhibited which have been fitted
here. The live stock left here Sat
urday, October 22.'
The show herd OF the department
has been consistently successful the
past three years. At five shows the
fall of 1918 they won 80 prize rib
bons and 81 championships, includ-
ing grand champion fat steer and
grand champion fat wether over all
breeds, grades and crosses at the
Pacific international Livestock Elk
position. Both were bred and ex-
hibited at the State College farm.
At the three winter shows last
year SO first prizes and 20 cham
pionships were secured, including
grand champion steer and wether at
the Northwest Livestock show at
Lewiston. The grand champion
steer brought Sc cents per pound on
foot at auction at the Pacific Inter-
national at Portland, total of more
than $500. These winners also were
bred and fitted at the college farm.
The grand champion Shorthorn
steer fitted by the college for the
Western Royal show at Spokane last
year won over all breeds, grades and
classes and was sold at auction at
the Spokane hotel for so cents per
pound, or over $500.
This year Herdsman Hanna of the
college has fitted six steers and nine
wethers for the two winter shows.
One of the two Shorthorn steers was
given the college by James McCros-
key & Son of Sprague, Wash. The
other was bred at the college. The
Angus steer was donated to the col
lege by c. V. Battles, managing
partner of Congdon & Battles, Yaki-
ma. Sam Breeze of Pullman pre-
sented grade Angus steer. One Of
the Hereford steers is the gift of
Henry Thiessen of Sweetwater, Ida.
The other is a product of the college
/ farm. Mr.. Hanna says they are all
in better shape than any he has even
taken out before and should give a
good account of themselves in the
judging ring.
