VAST STRIKE
 IN SHIPPING
 TRADES SEEN
fBy Uniter rress)

New York, April 2O.-With opera tors and employees apparently dead locked on question of wages, there was prospect today that great shipping strike would result, affecting sea- board ports and the Great Lakes.
 American steamship owners an nounced reductions in wages ranging from 20 to 30 per cent, effective May 1, when their present contracts with employees will expire.
 To meet this, varous branches of international unions controlling ship ping trade labor announced that the cut will not be accepted
 Should the operators insist upon making the cut effective and the en- ployes answer with a strike, it VII affect about 10000 workers at sea- board ports and on the Great Lakes.

SENATE 10 RAT|FY
 COLUMBIA TREATY
(By United Press)


 Washington, April Ratification of the Columbian treaty, by which Columbia will be awarded $25,O00 ,090 for the site of the Panama Canal, is expected by the senate late today Ratification will end a controversy which has ragged since 1903, when the canal zone became the property of the United States through Panama's s sue cessful revolution against Columbia. President Roosevelt took advantage of the revolution to secure the site, and later Columbia charged that Ameri- cans had melted the revolt for that purpose.
 The Columbian treaty guarantees $25 5,000,090 for the canal site, to be paid in annual installments of $5,000,- 900 each. Columbia will also be grant ed special privileges in use of the ca nal. The treaty will pave the way for the independence of Panama and will fix the boundary between that state and Columbia Opponents of the treaty concede it's ratification by more than the required two-thirds ma jority.

 Washington, April 20.-Charges that an assistant government" is manipulating the affairs of the Unit ed States for the benefit of the com mercial interests which it represents, were made by Charles s. Barrett of Georgia, president of the Farmers Union, in opening the national con- vention of that body today.
 M. Barrett described the assistant government as a concealed agency which works night and day in the in- terest of it's clients, and which is bending the farming interests almost to the breaking point" He appealed to the breaking point" He appealed tc congress for relief, declaring that the house and senate "should defy this influence and make thorough inquiry into the causes and seek earnestly fol the remedies which will right the present agricultural situation
 The national union president declar. ed that the plight of American farm. CTS is ineded desperate, and that many important issues hinge upon effective measures for their relief Mr. Barrett placed his dependence largely upon congress.

Scranton, Pa, April 20-Utmost secrecy surrounds the details of an arrest who is supposed to have placed in custody young man under suspic- ion of complicity in the Wall street bomb outrage. It is understood that department of justice agents from Washington have the suspect under questioning. He is supposed to be an accomplice of Italian dynamiters im- plicated in other bomb outrages.
 From the confession which the agents hope to force, valuable infor- nation in regard to anarchists acti- vities will be gained and will be used in making other arrests. The agents hope to find the maker of the Wall street bomb and the gang which placed it.

PROSPECTS FOR CATTLE MEN
Nebraska College OF Agriculture En-
couraging Farmers to Increase
Their Operations.

The Nebraska College Of Agricul-
ture is encouraging farmers to expand
their live stock operations The
scarcity Of all kinds of stock, especial
ly cattle, points TO continued good
prices. With feed prices going lower
better days seem TO be near for both
the live stock raiser and the live stock
feeder. While II IL true that many
feeders lost money In the last two
years. feed prices may be so per cent
lower than last year. Likewise cheap
er feed and labor should stimulate
live stock raising. The number OF
cattle in the United States has been
decreasing at an alarming rate. The
number In the United States has de
creased from 50 head for every 100
persons In 1900 10 ~ head In 1919.
During the same period the rate OF
slaughter increased 5000 900 head an
nually. Some people go so far as to
predict that In few years only mil
lionaires can have beefsteak on their
tables, unless live stock production Is
stimulated
