What About The Future?
Nov, what are we to do about the
future? Liquidation must continue
liquidation not only on the part Of
business man, the farmer, manu-.
facturer, and retail merchant, but
also on the part of the laborer. I be.
lieve that l am correct in saying thai
the only prices that seem to have
been liquidated fully SO far are
those Of our grains and other pro.
duets of our soil. including prices
Of live stock. This throws an entire
ly. unnatural burden upon the farmer
r'ces and paying for nearly every
thing that he needs prices which
while perhaps no longer at the peak
are relatively speaking still mucl
higher than his. We need, then, I,

make 1t clear to the business and Ia
boring man that there can be NJ

prosperity until liquidation all alon,

M|SS|NGHORNFOUND
With Result That William ABIDE
Was Brought to Police
Station
From Tuesdays Daily

From Tuesdays Daily
William Aldo was brought to the
police station this afternoon In con
nection with the finding of horn and
DINNER that are believed to have
been taken from the car owned by Roy
Volk, which was in an auto accident
near the Fletcher farm Sunday. The
articles were found in the home of
Aldo, upstairs at 107k James avenue.
1t was suspected that the horn and
DINNER might be found in the Aldo
home and search warrant was OBJ
tanned by the police for the purpose of
enabling them to make an investiga-
ton. Armed with this authority,
Detective AL Volk, Officer Peter
Wettsted and Traffic Officer Rachel
meyer went to Abdo's dwelling and
found the horn and DINNER, which
Volk positively identifies as having
been taken from his car. He identified
the horn because of the absence of
two set screws which were lost while
he was trying to repair the noise
maker on a certain occasion.
Traffic Officer Kachelmeyer obtain
ed a piece of wire from the Volk
car and the ends match exactly with
those that are attached to the horn.
The horn shows the marks Of having
been in an accident.
Aldo claims that he found the horn
on Second street. -. -

Government Agencies I'm
der One Bureau
SEE FEWER TROUBLES
Colonel Forbes, Director, Says
Day Divided Authority Is
Now Over

Washington, August 23-veteran's
difficulties In obtaining government
aid are expected to be greatly minim-
ICED by the consolidation of all gov
ernmental agencies administering sol
der relief under one head-the Vet
Grams Bureau. That Is what Colonel
Charles r. Forbes, Of Seattle. director
OF the bureau, promises. The day OF
dual responsibility, of divided author
former service men Is ended, he says.
and troubles OF long standing among
the veterans will rapidly disappear.
Responsibility for adjusting claims,
attending to medical needs and Of ed
ucating disabled veterans, is definitely
fixed under the law creating the. vet
Grams bureau. It rests sQuarely upon
the director, rather than between the
war ltsk insurance bureau, the feder-
al board for vocational training and
the Public health service, the three
agencies that formerly administered
aid Independently.
Provide Medical Facilities
The problem of providing medical
facilities, including hospitals, Is regar-
ded as the most difficult of all those
coming within the jurisdiction Of the
bureau. Plans already are underway
for its solution. The bureau announces
tnat tn0 $16,VuV,VUV APPROPRIATION Tor
hospital construction will be supple
mented by use of authority given the
director to enter into contracts with
State, municipal and private hospitals
for the immediate accommodation OF
veterans in need of hospital care. The
announcement says that $500 new
beds will be placed in use for soldier
patients by January next year.
Othe duties Of the director include
inspection of all hospitals having SOL
der patients, guardianship of 26,630
war risk patients now being cared for
In 500 private and 80 government hos
pitfalls, command of all public health
service doctors and nurses engaged in
soldier rehabilitation work, education
of men whose earning capacity was
impaired by service and who must be
taught new means of support, admin
istration of an insurance business with
651 1854 active and 397.S90 term poll
cies with computed value of $3.50,
&c, 1856, and the average LOCO, 900 a
day expenditure by the government in
meeting the. compensation and insur-
ance claims and which are increasing
at the rate Of 800 claims day.

WINDSOR BOOZE RULING

To American Decided

o American DECIDED
Windsor, Ont, August 20.-Citizens
Of the United States who want to
purchase liquor from Canadian
sources must remain away from On
tario during purchase negotiations,
IL they would avoid conflict with the
Ontario temperance act, according
to a ruling today by w. e. Gundy,
police magistrate of Windsor.
In test case in which A. Raffelay,
an American citizen bought one hun
dred cases Of beer from the British
American Brewing company, the
beer being subsequently seized by
the Ontario government, the magis-
trate fined the company $500 and
promptly. The magistrates ground
was that Raffelay had closed the
purchase on Canadian soil and that
therefore the brewery had violated
the Ontario temperance act.
