FARMERS OPPOSE
HEDGING SYSTEM
HOUSE COMMITTEE HEARS OP-
POSITION TO GRAIN TRADE
SYSTEM FROM FARM Or
CARNATIONS,

Washington, Jan. 6.-The hedg-
ing system long followed in the
grain trade was opposed today by
representatives of farmers organi-
cations who appeared at the first of
a series of extended hearings by the
house agricultural committee on
bills designed to put heavy tax on
strictly speculative dealings. There
was no evidence, however, to indi-
cate that the organizations wanted
the government to abolish grain ex-
changes and while some witnesses
declared present conditions were
bad" they were unable to offer
offhand substitutes plans which
might afford greater protection to
the grower.
A. l.. Middleton, president of the
Farmers Elevator Co., at Eagle
Grove. Ia, said the experience of
farmers of his section had preju-
diced them against future selling or
even hedging. The system of hedg-
ing by which man buying actual
corn sells an equal amount in fu-
lures had been regarded by the
trade as legitimate. although he add
ed that it led to temptation to
reckless speculation. On one hedging
transaction his company, he said,
lost zoe bushel.
Representative Tincher, republi-
can, Kansas, said he was surprised
to find that farmers, owing a CO.
operative elevator company, had
been gambling" Asked if that was
permitted under his charter or by
the laws of Iowa. Mr.. Middleton
said that so far as he knew there
had been no prosecutions and that
more than Is per cent of the eleva-
tors in his state made a practice of
hedging.
G H. Hyde of the Oklahoma Far
mers' Union, declared farmers of the
southwest opposed future speculative
trading as whole.

Mems Clothing
Is Much Cheaper

Chicago, Jan. 6.-The market for
mems spring and summer clothing
was opened today and manufacturers
offered suits much below that of
1920. One factory quoted the manu-
facturer's price of wool suits at $25
compared to $40 last fall and $37
a year ago. Fine blue serge suits are
offered at $50, compared to SAT last
fall and $43 year ago. A stand
ard worsted suit is now wholesaled
at $34 compared to s45 for the
spring of 1920. The very finest
worsted suits made in America are
now offered at $50, compared to $50
last fall. Fine worsted trousers are
now 50, compared to $3.50 last
spring. Prices for summer goods
such as mohairs and Palm Beaches
range upward from $14.50 compar-
ed to $16.50 last year.
Buyers say they have for the most
part liquidated goods bought at
peak prices and from now on cloth
ing will be retailed on the new level.

seven children. Seven Russian chill
dren. Uncle Newton is also a rear
admiral in the United States navy.
Admiral McCullv reached the age
of SO without marrying. The last
five of the SO years he has spent in
at 1921 | street, Northwest, Wash
ington. He has comfortable for
tune and a niece who lives in his
Washington home.
The admiral always like children.
In Russia he was especially attach
ed to group of ten youngsters,
most of them orphans.
Thus it was that when the Unit
ed State naval collier Ramapo dock
ed in the naval base at Brooklyn to-
day the admiral marched to the
beach at the head of five boys and
two girls* and you can take the ad-
mirars word for il. the seven most
beautiful, lovable, best hammered
and endearing children in all Rus
sia. At the end of the procession
was Olga, the family nurse, who ad-
mits she has her hands full.
All but one of the little McCullys
call their foster father Uncle" The
12-year-old boy insists on addressing
his dad as 'AdmeefCli'' He and the
seven were taken on tugboat to the
barge office at the Battery. This
afternoon they were taken to Ellis
Island before a board of special in
quiry.
How about the niece?" suggest
ed someone. She'll receive them
with open arms. I know her" re-
piled the admiral.
He added that there wasn't boil
shevik among them.
Three other Russian children are
to come to America later for adop-
ton by the admiral, making his
brood, ten, should they be allowed to
enter the country.
The names of the seven children
are Nokolai Smnov, IL; Loudmila
Manetzkaya, IL; Anastasia Sherba-
tov, 10; Nina Furinan, 8; Fedor
Pozko, a; Ninotaski Klimenko, and
Olgo Selifanove, IS, in charge of the
others.
The technical exclusion ruling of
Ellis island officials was that the
children were liable to become pub
lie charges"

Washington, Jan. 6. - United
States Intervention in Cuba depends
largely on General Enoch HI. Crow
der, sent to the island by President
Wilson, officials indicated today
Crowder's trip, it was said, was
not a move toward intervention, but
is designed to make intervention un-
necessary.
State department officials, how
ever, made no attempt today to con-
ceal their concern over the outcome
of Cuba's plight if an early agree
ment is not reached on the question
who was elected PRESIDENT"
Crowder's discussion with Presi-
dent Menocal will seek to settle this
question as well as the Cuban finan-
cial problems Crowder first will
attempt to pave the way TO an early
decision on the election disputes.
The Cuban courts are trying to de-
eide the claims of Jose Miguel Co
mez, liberal presidential candidate,
that the national party employed
fraudulent methods in electing DR..
Alfredo Zayas last November. but
have made no progress.

JOIN THE J0B[ESS
FILM INDUSTRY is In THE
THROES OF REAL SLUMP ON
THE WEST COAST.

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 6.-There
is decided slump in the moving
picture industry here, with the larg-
est producing corporations operating
at from one-fifth to nearly normal
capacity. The Universal is almost
the only one able to claim the latter
proportion, all the rest having more
than half their facilities unused.
The large number of jobless act
ors and studio workers is prevented
from increasing only by the policy
of many of the firms to keep their
workers on the pay roll. Most en-
ployes are DING odd jobs about the
studios, waiting hopefully for the
predicted improvement.
Thousands are unemployed in
spite of these efforts and it appears
that the slump is much more de-
cided in corporations controlled by
eastern interests than in the local
ones The situation has caused a
rapid growth in the long felt senti-
ment, that a thorough houseclean-
llS anu SItdtly tlliNithss
is needed in the industry.
There are 100 to 125 companies
with headquarters here and prac-
tically all of them are feeling the
depression. Metro and Lasky stu
dios are almost at standstill with
only a small proportion of their
companies at work. Goldwyn is run
ming at about one-fourth capacity
and at the Ince studios only two in
stead of the usual twelve companies
are at work. The Fox Film company
is busiest next to the Universal and
it is using only about half its COM
panies.
Heads of the industry attribute
the slump in part to a holding off
to see what the public wants and
also to a desire to wait and see how
the industry fares at the hands OF
income and excess profits tax law

DOVE Of PEACE

BELIEVED PEACE WILL BE ES-

HOME RULE ACT.

Dublin, Jan. 6.-Peace in Ireland
on the basis of the new home rule
act was regarded as certainty here
today. Only the most radical be-
lieve the fight can go on indefinitely
with the Irish republicans finally
winning complete freedom. The
peace which is expected, however,
probably will not come until there
has been another outbreak of viol-
ence and Dublin has been put under
martial law, according to many OBJ
servers here. Eamonn De Valeria,
the returned president, is big fac
tor in the situation. A statement
from him is expected hourly. 1t is
believed the message will advocate
peace, De Valeria's presence in Ire
land is admitted and evidence is in

treat with him as representing the
Daileireann Despite a belief that he
will be well received by the govern
ment. His hiding place is carefully

LEGISLATURE
FIRST SENATE BILL SEEKS RE-
STORATTON OF CAPITAL
PUNISHMENT

Pierre, Jan. 6.-The restoration
of capital punishment as a penalty
when jury directs on conviction of
murder, will be the first matter to
come before the legislature this ses-
sion, according to the plan of Sena-
tor A. l.. Sherin of Codington coun-
IL, who at the opening session sub
mitted for introduction senate bill
No. l to that effect.
The senate committee on journal
was appointed with Alseth of Kings
bury as chairman, Horsfall of Moody
and Johnson of Clark. Other senate
committees are promised by today.
Seats for members were selected be-
fore adjournment yesterday after
noon and some clerks and steno-
graphers appointed to work out the
policy of getting down to work, urg-
ed by the presiding officer of both
houses.
Speaker G.. O. Berdahl of the
house of representatives announced
two committees as his first official
act. The committee on rules con-
ssts of Buell. of Pennington county
as chairman, Nordness of Day, Swan
son of Brown, Wickre of Day, Buff
fington of Gregory, Lumbard OF
Brule and the speaker. The commit
tee on correction of journal consists
of Frescoln of Trip chairman, War
rem of Lawrence, Carlson of Yank-
ton.
The house set the 40th day of the
session as the time limit for intro
duction of individual bills and the
45th day of committee bills.
Marketing of agricultural prod
ucts is pointed out by Gov. McMas-
ter in his message to the South Da-
kota legislature as one of the big
gest problems confronting the farm
ers of the state, and one which
should receive the careful consider
alton of the members of the legisla-
ture at the present session.
The governor calls attention to
the needs of a system of credits
through cooperation of the farm
ers' organizations and the banking
interests which will give the farmer
the benefit of credits when he needs
it. Legislation also is asked for
which will give the railway commits
sion power to fix rates to meet
emergencies in transportation such
as occurred in the western part or
the state year ago, when the rates
on feed were too high to permit the
stockmen to ship in feed and thus
forced the shipment of cattle not yet
ready for market.
In addition to this the governor
asks for action necessary to cover
the needs of a soldiers bonus au-
thorized by a vote of the people last
fall.
Licensing of foreign corporations
desiring to sell promotion or other
stocks in the state, based on their
sales to protect the people of the
state in their investments, is given
some attention in the message.
The inaugural reception for Gov.
and Mrs. w. H. MsMaster and the
officers who took office Tuesday
was held in the capitol building
Tuesday evening. 1t comprised the
entire official social function for the
opening of the session. There was
no inaugural ball Off the first time
in the history of the state. The
American Legion gave a dancing
party at the auditorium, which in an
unofficial way, took the place of this
usually brilliant social gathering.
