Williams will occupy the suite of

offices were originally prepared for
the district attorneys office and were
used for that purpose until after the

to succeed Bone, removed the office
to Kansas City where he had formed
a law partnership with United States
Senator Thompson.
When Williams was appointed he
asked permission to return the office

CORN CROP
PaxtOn's Forecast Places Pro.
ductiOn at lis, $4,000 Bushels.
Increase of Five and a Half Mil
lion Over August Report.

In his September report Edward c.
Paxton, of the federal crop bureau,
boosts the state estimate for Kansas
corn production slightly more than
five and a half million bushels. Pax
toms estimate follows the state report
issued two weeks ago. In August J. c.
Mohler. secretary of the state board of
agriculture, forecast a corn crop of
113, 100000 bushels. Paxton's later re-
port is for a yield of 11S,912,OOO
bushels.
Grain Production, 326,S4s, 900 Bushels
Paxton estimates the total grain
production for Kansas this year at
326, ,943,000 bushels as against 391,-
75S 600 bushels a year ago. The Pax
ton report covers the general lines
laid down by the earlier Kansas re-
port and the Paxton QUESTIONABLE was
similar to one sent out by Secretary
Mohler. In a general way there is but
slight difference in estimates of the
two. crop experts.
The Kansas corn yield this year IS
from the second smallest acreage in
forty years. Paxton estimates the
average yield at PAL bushels to the
acre. He places conditions at this
time at 72 per cent. His report states
that the crop will mature in keeping
with this estimate provided the state
escapes early frosts- A cold wave this
month would also do damage to
sorghums.
Much corn has already been cut.
Prevailing low prices indicate a heavy
feeding of hogs by corn producers and
a tendency to market the corn crop
on foot

Food Costs Increase One to
Eight Per Cent in Month.
Now From so to 50 Per Cent
Higher Than in 1913.

Washington, Sept. 9.-In the face
of widespread unemployment and
stagnation in the agricultural and in
dustrial lines. the cost of living con-
tinues to mount higher and higher.
This was shown today when the bu-
reau of labor statistics issued figures
showing that in fifteen principal cities
in the United States the retail cost of
food increased from l to s per cent
during the period July Is to Aug
ust Is.
The increase ranged from per cent
in Minneapolis to per cent in
Rochester. In Milwaukee, the in
crease was s per cent; Louisville, 4
per cent; in Houston, Tex, 8 per cent,
and in Butte and Dallas, 2 per cent.
Hike Not Accounted For.
In general, the cost of food this
year is from so to 81 per cent higher
than in 1913.
Officials of the labor bureau did not
attempt to account for the increase
in food prices at a time when farm
ers are complaining that they cannot
get enough for their produce to pay
the cost of producing.
For the year period August 15.
1920, to August Is, 1921, there was a
decrease of 80 per cent in Butte, %
per cent in Louisville. IS per cent In
Dallas, Milwaukee and Minneapolis,
and "a per cent in Houston.
AS compared with the average cost
for the year 1913. the retail cost of
food August IS, 1921, showed an in
crease of so per cent in Milwaukee,
SO per cent in Minneapolis, At per
cent in Dallas. and 43 per cent in
Louisville. The bureau has no COM
parable prices for Butte or Houston.

BETTER INDUSTRIAL OUTLOOK
Federal Officials Take More Optimistic
View of Situation.

Washington, Sept. 9.-OfficiaIs took
a more optimistic view of the unem-
ployment situation today. Indications
of a better trend industrially, particu-
larly industry, are multiplying.
Secretary Hoover said he was very
hopeful that the stimulation in cot
ton and wheat will extend to other
lines that have been stagnant since
the price decline started business to
sagging.
Others in touch with the fiscal and
commercial outlook were equally
sanguine that the corner has been
turned. The permanency of these i'm
provements in business in the lines de-
scribed, it was said, is bound to cut
down to some extent some of the pres
ent idleness.
Plans went ahead speedily today for
a conference on unemployment here.
Secretary Hoover today laid the ten
tative program for the conference be-
fore the president and his cabinet
There are approximately 100000
bread winners out of employment, ac-

H. C. |. IN CAIN READY FOR ACTION
Trouble Is SmOuldering il
Central America.
u. s. Naval Forces Ready to
Take Hand Any Moment.

Washington, Sept. 9.-All of Central
America is fast becoming a cauldron
of trouble which may boil over at any
moment in serious fashion, it is said
in official circles here today.
The whole situation is such that
diplomatic and naval officials are
watching closely every development
and are prepared to act promptly.
Naval forces for some time have
been kept within hailing distance of
this region, under the directions of
the commander of the so-called "spe-
cial service squadrons." This squad
ron, organized some months ago, is de-
signed especially for quick action on
the turbulent coasts below our south
ern borders
Marines Are On Job.
It was learned today that in view
of the threatening state of affairs in
Central America, these forces have
been augmented. and it is known that
naval units have been on the scene
of the threatened trouble in Mica
ragua and nearby points, including
Panama.
The outbreak in Panama and par
ticuIarly the one now going on in Mica
ragua is regarded by officials as mere
ly an indication of what may happen
later on a greater scale.
Already marines are. occupying
Haiti, Santo Domingo, Nicaragua,
Cuha and are lowering near Panama
and Costa .Rica, ready to take a hand
in those countries at an instant's
