the war department the right to use such
receipts of money as may come to it
through the sale of property or supplies.
Consequently the 100000. 900 fund il
automatically kept intact, but what act
ually has happened is that congress has
indirectly given the war department the
right to spend 100000, 600. if by chance
the receipts from the sale of government
property or unused supplies should
amount to that much. What may be true
of the war department is true of other
of the government.
Lawsuits Poorly Handled.
Another menace To economy is in the
handling of government lawsuits. Con-
gress always hesitates to authorize the
expenditure of large sums of money for
legal talent. Yet the lawyers for the
claimants surely get big fees, ranging
all the way from $4,000 to 500, 900
Such fees on the side of government are
unknown. The government, therefore, is
frequently outwitted and must pay mil
lions of dollars in judgments simply be-
cause it will not spend the relatively
small sums To win lawsuits

DIRECT NEGOTIATIONS
 ARE LIKELY SOON
By Associnted Press

London, June 5.-The next develop ment in the coal dispute is not un likely to be direct negotiation between the coal mine owners and the men. The prime minister, it is announced, is suf- fering from chill; he has been order ed to rest few days. As he is under engagement to visit Ox1ord toward the end of the week and then go to Wales, 1t is not likely that he will be avail 7 able for any immediate negotiations and the mine owners are ready taking steps to invite the miners executives to meet them and talk matters over.
 A semi official statement was is- sued tonight to the effect that the coal strike Is causing a deficit averaging 9,5c0,0 ,000 pounds monthly on the work ing railways, which. being under gov erun1ent control, has to be somren~ sated to the shareholders at the cx. 2ense of the taxpayers. Thus, with ihe cost of calling up the reserves, which have only just been disbarded, and of the new defense force and the expenditure on unemploy benefits there is d heavy drain on state fi- nances, and 1t is considered that the government is debarred in this way from holding out for an indefinite reriod it's offer of 10000. 900 pounds to tide the coal industry over the diff. cult period

HOOVER AND WALLACE ' TO HOLD CONFERENCE
 WITH GRAIN INTERESTS
By Associafad Press

Washington, June 5.-Secretaries Hoover and Wallace have asked Rep resentatives of various farm organi- Sations, grain elevators and dealers, insurance companies and other asso- cations interested to attend con- ference here June I3 to consider a plan for improving grain storage , methods, the commerce department announced tonight
 1t IS proposed the department ex- rlained, to provide method by which farmers could be given unlimited storage facilities for grain and re- ccive warehouse certificates that could be used as an order for the de- l livery of the grain.
 If such plan can be made prac- ticable, the department asserted. it would greatly increase the farmers borrowing power and relieve hBm of the pressure of selling his grain at his own option.
 | It was contended that the farmer l woald be enabled to haul grain at the time of greatest farm economy with out being compelled to sell at that time. In addition the department de- clared the farmers credit would be extended eyond his local bank and place him in the same position as to credit Gs to the grain dealer.

MEXICO To DEPORT
AMERICANS IN RIOT
Two Charged With IncitIng
Invasion of Chamber of
Deputies by Reds.
BY the Associated press

by the Associated Press
MEAlCO CITY, May 17.-Frank Sea-
man. alleged to be an American agitator !:
another American. whose name was not
announced, and two Spaniards were
ordered expelled from Mexico last night
on the ground that they were ''pernicous
foreigners This charge was preferred
against them under the provisions OF
article 33 of the Mexican constitution
ana ana was a result of the participation OF
the four men in the radical invasion OF
the chamber of deputies last week.
demonstrations in government huiid-
lngs and in churches have been forbidden
in an order issued by President Obregon.
Action by members of the liberal con-
situt'onal party in the chamber of depu-
ties TO bring about the ousting Of several
radical members was planned for yes
terday's session of -, chamber, but
when the body assembled it was found
that there was not quorum present.
Thus, what promised to be a turbulent
sitting was deferred until Wednesday, as
no sessions were to be held today.
Hold Secret Caucus.
Early yesterday afternoon the lib
ral-constitutionalists held a secret
caucus at which they discussed the
program to be followed. They gave
particular attention to a letter they
purpose to send to President ObreGon,
asking his support in their efforts to
tmpeach PHILIPPE taroillo and Antonio
DiaZ Soto V Dana. radical deputies,
charged with leading last weeks in
EaSlOn of the chamber by bolSheviki
They also hope to secure the reSlSna-
tions of Celestine GaSca. governor of
the federal district: Senior MoroneS. Il
la Dor leader, and Inspector of Police
Reygadas.
Although those present at the meet
ing declined to discuss the affair. be-
lief was expressed last night that ef-
forts were being made to delay a meet
ing of the chamber until the present
bitterness has abated somewhat.
There is no indication, however. that
the liberal constitutionalists have
abandoned their original plan to pun
ish the radical leaders. Members of
the socialist and labor parties in the
chamber declared last night they were
willing to contest every move made by
their opponents and would defend
Gasca. Morones and Reygadas.
Chamber Under Guard.
Gendarmes guarded every entrance
TO the chamber yesterday, and per-
sons entering the building were
searched for arms.
Socialists have planned a demon
stratlon upon the arrival from
Morelia of the body OF Isaac Arriaga,
radical leader, who was Killed dur
ing the rioting there last Thursday
Lack OF funds has delayed the trans
fer OF the body to this city, but it is
believed arrangem will be made
to bring it here soon.
Sweeping orders were issued last
night by President Obregon to the
federal prosecuting attorney, the su-
preme court and the department of
interior to investigate the Morelia af-
fair and the invasion of the chamber
of deputies by radicals. Federal Of
ficers were directed to use every
means at their command to ascertain
the cause of the Catholic socialist
clash at Morelia. which was de-
scribed in the presidents order as
IAN act of intemperance and intoler-
ance."
