In statement tonight Mr.. Gon-

importation by sugar planters OF
Hawaii of approximately $4,000 Chi
nese coolies in bond" was pro-
posal brought forward for the
benefit of great corporations and for
the exploitation of humanity"
"The American people," he said,
fought to rise in overwhelming pro-
test and resentment against this in
iquitous proposal. 1T is" he added,
"an act of shame and disgrace for
any American to advocate peonage,
bond labor or slave labor anywhere
under the American flag"
The issue" he continued, Clearly
is whether the American principle
OF oriental exclusion shall be de-
stroyed, whether Chinese coolies
shall be brought to Hawaii in bond
and whether America is going to
permit establishment in Hawaii of
a condition OF serfdom, peonage and
bondage by which coolies shall be
brought to the islands, tied to their
jobs and rendered liable to punish
ment if they attempt to desert the
work for which it is proposed they
shall be imported in bond"

would investigate prices here. Some
retail candy concerns here have an
reductions of from 10 to 20
per cent over war time prices, stating
the reduction was made principally
because of the drop in sugar.

Clague Measure

Washington, Aug. 2.-(Special
Telegram. 1.-The Clague bill, named
after Representative Frank Clague OF
Minnesota, which had the unani-
nous endorsement of farm oigniza-
tons and farmers, passed the house
today by vote of 223 to 20, every
member of the Nebraska delegation

measure. which increases the inter-
est rate on farm loan bank bonds
from 5 to 7 IL per cent.
Congressman Reavis, who return

spent few days with Mrs. Reavis,
made short speech in favor of the
measure, i'll the course of which he
said that the farm loan act was one
of the great constructive measures
Of the last quarter of a century and
it did more through its functioning
ability to reduce farm tenancy than
any other expedient tried up to this
time. Mr.. Reavis said that $4,000
farmers have taken advantage of its
provisions for the purchase of farm
homes. the average loan being $500,
going to the small rather than the
large farmer. .'' ~.

tation, rendering most difficult the
movement OF such local surpluses
as do still exist.
Examples of reports from the
Grouth area show the province of
Samara sowing this spring only So
per cent of the acreage cultivated
last year. In the province Of Ka-
zan, $4,000 acres usually cultivated
were not sown at all. To the west
Of the Volga valley, less than 50
per cent of the arabic territory in
the province of Orel was sown and
in the province of Tula, only 20 to
Is per cent.
Decline in Production.
Overriding such local situations,
there has been steady decline in ag-
ricultural production ever since the
revolution, owing to the lack of in
centive to farmers to provide more
than their own needs, to the short
age of seed and shortage of imple-
ments. The urban population has
produced little goods to offer in
change and the currency deprecia-
ton, through the increase of cur.
rency issues to over 100000 100000
roubles, has rendered their accumu-
lation no attraction. From these
causes Russia, before even last years
harvest, had declined from a state
producing from 100000 to 10000
900 tons of food for export, to
condition where there was such an
insufficient supply of food for the
cities that the urban population has
been reduced by about one-half.
An indication of diminished grain
crops in 1921 is offered by the guam
titles estimated to be requisitioned
as taxes by the soviet government.
The total amount for all soviet Rus
sia except the Ukraine and Tur.
kestan, is 100000 tons of grain, as
against 7,6l4,000 tons in 1920. The
potatoes estimated TO be requisi-
toned this year amount to 1,080,000
tons, as compared with 20l6,000
tons in 1920, while 2l6,000 tons of
oil seeds are to be requisitioned in
stead of $4,000 tons in 1920. The
number of provinces where any sur.
plus is indicated for removal to
other provinces appears to have de-
creased from over 20 prewar to not
more than four.

Caruso, Celebrated
Singer, Dies in Italy

take his place with the Metropolitan
Opera company.
Shortly after the tenor had ar
rived in Italy, reports commenced to
drift back to this country that he
would not sing again before the
American public in his old voice.
Caruso, however, immediately cabled
a denial of these reports declaring
that when I want to show I have
not lost my voice l will do so at the
proper time and place"
Reports Not Assuring.
Early last month word came from
Italy that Caruso was not recover
ing as rapidly as had been expected
and seemed depressed, but friends
declared his voice was returning and
that he sings short time each day.
Reports reaching Rome at this
time stated that Caruso would be
able to sing by next winter, though
friends reluctantly admitted "it will
never be quite the same again"
Caruso was also reported to be liv-
ing a secluded life in hotel near
Naples, never mixing with the other
hotel guests and taking his meals in
his private suite.
News of Caruso's death on the
heels of continued reassuring reports
from Italy came as stunning shock
to the music loving world.
Bursted Blood Vessel.
The breakdown in the tenor's
health last winter followed a series
of mishaps to Caruso which cul-
minated on December II in Brooklyn
when he burst blood vessel while
singing in Elisir D'Amore at the
Academy of Music.
His performance on that occasion
was gallant; he struggled through
the first act, although time and
again blood choked his voice and
ever now and then he was forced to
change Redeemed handkerchief for
another deftly slipped to him by
some member of the chorus.
Those in the front rows soon be-
came aware of the singers danger
and applauded the daring fight in
which time after time his golden
voice rose superior to the obstacle
that threatened to muffle it. 1t was
not until the combined demands of
his wife, almost frantic in the wings,
and the pleas of his physician had
been joined, that Caruso fnalIv con-
sented to abandon the stage.

stolen property. Her bail was fixed
at $4,000.
Mother and son entered pleas of
rot guilty. Their lawyer contested
the high rate OF bail. When the court
was told that Adams was already
under $4,000 bail because of the ac-
cusations of the girl, the magistrate
refused to consider a reduction.
Mrs. Adams provided bail but her
son was taken to a cell in the dis
trict prison in default of bond.
