Yes, the country is still marking

These straws are facts. Consider a

The steel industry has seen the worst
of dullness. Copper likewise. Wool
en- mills are more active. Silk trade
is reviving. Leather and hides mark

are moving surplus cotton stocks.
The sugar industry is picking up on
higher prices. More building and con-

Retail Price Too High

Emporia meat retailers are no diff
ferent than others in their mainteA-
ance of high prices for meat. The
packers say the price of beef is in the
hands of the retailers; that the whole
sale price of meats has been steadily
declining, yet the retail price all over
the country has been maintained At
high levels. If the retailer would low
err his price in line with the wholesale
prices, the public would buy meat, and
open the market of distribution all
the way along the line.
Retail prices have reduced little
compared to prices for beef on the
hoof," said Carl Nation. eff the re-
tailers would reduce prices they would
sell more meat and the increased de-
mand would enable the cattlemen TO
get better price. Kansas cattle are
as fat as ever saw them but prices
they bring are ridiculously low. AT
61A or 8 cents a pound for a fat steer
there is no profit in raising cattle Tor
such a market. Kansas Stockman.

u. S. ARMS DELEGATES

Washington, Oct. ia month Of
careful preparation for the American
governments part in the armament
conference began with the first meet
ing here Of the four delegates selected
by President Harding to speak for
the United States.
Diplomatic, military and naval data
Of a specific nature already had been
compiled for the guidance of the dele
cations, but the real task of fitting the
whole mass Of information together
and building upon it constructive
program remained to be done by the
delegates themselves in the long series
of meetings that will precede the open
ing of the conference on November IL.
The first meeting was designed to
do no more than scratch the surface
of the problem ahead of the American
representatives. 1t was called by Sec
rotary Hughes, head of the delegation,
to permit of a preliminary survey or
the situation and Of general outline
Of the things to be done.
President Harding had communicate
ed his ideas through Mr.. Hughes, and
memoranda were available covering
various points of technical informa-
ton, but personal interviews with the
President and with military and naval
experts were part of the delegations
plan during it's period of preparation.

ATHENS REPORTS BIG
VICTORY FOR GREEKS
Official Communique Says Turks Are

Athens, Oct 12.-Greek and Turkish
nationalist forces have been engaged
in fierce battle along the new front
in Asia Minor, extending from Alum
Karahissar, northward to point al
most directly east of Brusa.
On the southern end of this line, the
Greeks, says an official statement Is
sued here, have won complete VIC
tory, driving the nationalist from the
field and infiicting heavy losses upon
them. Farther north the fighting has
apparently consisted of raids in force,
but it is evident the hostile armies
are in contact with each other.
Enemy concentrations north Of Klos
on the right bank of the Sakaria riv-
er, have been scattered by an offensive
carried out by Greek troops, while en-
envy attachments further north have
suffered grave losses in recent skirm-

PRESIDENT TALKS
TO POSTMAsTERS
Urges Esprit of Service" on
Post Office Employees.
RURAL COMMUNITIES PRAISED
Harding Declares They are the Guar
anty of the Perpetuity of the
Repubiic-Asks for "GospeI
of Understanding"

Washington, Oct. 15.-Confidence
that the United States will be able in
the reconstruction period to Undue the
other nations of the earth with a
spirit of service and understanding
was expressed by President Harding
in an address before several thousand
postmasters and postal employees who
have been in convention here. With
out referring directly to the coming
armament conference, the President
declared his conviction that the "gos-
pei of understanding" would be re-
sponsible for whatever of lasting good
may be accomplished in the years of
rehabilitation and realignment ahead.
Whatever | may have learned to-
night" the President said, 81 knew
about postmasters long before l came
to the presidency. / used to help pick
them in the good old days, and I'm
not sure but / named more Of them
twenty years ago than I do today.
Likes Rural Communities.
when / was shaking hands with
you yesterday at the White House
somehow the thought came to me of
the varied communities you represent
ed. suppose I'm just little par
tfal to the great rural community, be-
cause began my life there. I'm just
as proud of the great cities of Amer
lea as any citizen of the republic, but
they're just little different. They
show little more of the passing pas
sion, while out across the great areas
of our republic are the sober, sub
stantial citizens who are the guaranty
of the perpetuity of this land.
II take it we are not all of one
party here, and want to say that I'm
not averSe to postmasters being inter-
ested in politics. If anyone ever
comes to me and says he is seeking a
postmastership and has no party af-
filiations he's going to be wiped off
the slate right away. I'd rather have
hard-boiled Democrat than yellow
Republican.
"And when a man comes to me to
seek a place and asks what the COM
pensation Is, he also is wiped off the
list. No man is worth while who is
merely seeking place, but the man
is worth while who Is seeking an op-
portunity for service, particularly in
this present period of change and
reconstruction.
Doesn't Speak as Partisan.
II do not speak in partisan sense
or in a sense or criticism of anything
that has gone before, but it's no small
problem to put our republic on it's
feet again and 1t calls for the service
of every man and woman interested
in his country.
II have sought to preach the gospel
Of understanding and service, and
venture to say that the greatest things
we shall record in the years of recon
struction will be due to understanding
and service. If we can have that
spirit and do these things for our
own people 1t is not impossible that
this republic can point the world to
a way to better understanding and to
a better order for mankind"
