TELLS OF AMERICAN LEGION.
Frank e. Samuels, State AdjHtant
Talks to Jordan Patterson Post,

The origin, aims and purposes of
the American Legion were explained
Tuesday night by Frank E. Samuels,
state adjutant, to the members of the
Jordan Patterson post, colored, at its
regular meeting. Samuels pointed out
that the Legion is still in its infancy
and urged the cooperation of every
post in the state. SIS
The Jordan Patterson post is con-
Quoting an active membership cam
paign and is urging every negro ex-
service man in Topeka to join. The
post was organized about three months

Forty-six exhibitors placed flowers
in the third annual Topeka flower
show at the city auditorium today.

scarce because of the late season.

larly attractive in a design placed on

MOLINE SHOPS
TO BE NORMAL
IN ONE YEAR
Marshall c. Johnsen, Representing
Farm Papers. Makes Survey of
Business Conditions.

Moline factories will be produc-
ing the normal amount of goods in
about year. according to an esri-
mate of business conditions made
yesterday afternoon by Marshall c..
Johnson, advertising representa-
tive of a group OF agricultural
papers.
I'VE keep in close touch with the
market for agricultural machinery
both by interviews and by question
aires" Mr.. johnson said, and data
that we have gathered shows that
the present surplus of production
will be absorbed in about a year.
The market for agricultural i'm
plements is dull yet, but it is i'm
proving. 1t is much better than it
was last winter, and reports from
dealers are that stocks on hand
are moving more rapidly than here
tofore. This movement began with
the first sign of crops in the spring,
and IL will prosper in proportion to
the success of this years yield.
There will be no distinct line of
demarkation between bad times
and good times. The change will

the part of sales forces of this
country's industries. Sales volumes
will increase gradually until fac
tories can resume production for
this country at normal rate.
rs the influence of the foreign
exchange rate as great as estimat-
ed? Mr.. Johnson was asked.
1T has been ono of the factors to
bring about a practical cessation
of export trade in agricultural i'm
plements. There is a market for
them abroad, so far as demand is
concerned, but the countries that
ordinarily would use them are eth
er unwilling or unable to pay tie
inequality in exchange. Russia, in
addition, is no market for impla-
ments because of her unstable con-
dition, and she used TO be the big
gest importer of such products.
The easiest way fcI manufactur-
ers to find Il market to replace that
of Europe is to cultivate South
America. Whereas it used to be
necessary to ship to Latin America
via Liverpool, direct steamer lines
are now running to Rio de JaneiTo
and Buenos Aires, gates to the
South American purchaser"

ACTING DESK COP
HEARS ALL KINDS
OF STRANGE CALLS

Swan Larson. acting desk ser

is getting all kinds of complaints
during the vacation of regular Desk
Sergeant Charles Grell.
OFFICER Larson has been IN
charge of the sergeant's office
somewhat less than two weeks and
lie believes he has received every
variety of calls.
One of the latest and the stran-
gest came in yesterday from a
streetcar motorman. He was kick
ing about a driver of a certain
truck that was interfering with the
running schedule Of the Tri-City
Railway company. The car man
stated that the truck driver On
several occasions refused to drive
lis machine from the car tracks.
The affair was apparently settled
amicably, as there is no record of
an accident or fight and cars are
still running on the East Moline
line
