IMPLEMENT PRICES DOWN
Big Firms Make Reductions o
About Fifteen Per Cent

The implement manufacturers
who declared a few months ago
that they could not reduce prices
on implements for this year and In
some instances would have to in
crease prices, have seen a great
light. The International Harvester
Co. and ]. l. Case Co. announced
cuts Of 10 and 15 per cent Satur-
day and the Birmingham Co. cut
of IS per cent Monday. They find
that they must take their share OF
the losses along with the farmer or
else they cannot do business. 1t
will be much appreciated by the
farmers as the cuts apply to prac-
tically all implements.

BONUS BOARD IS
MAKING HEADWAY
ASKS SERVICE MEN TO BE PA
TENT UNTIL EVERYTHING Is
IN READINESS TO MAKE
PAYMENTS.

Pierre, May 2.-Individually the
members of the soldiers bonus board
are formulating a plan of action for
the distribution of the bonus money
and will probably meet here next
week to complete definite arrange
ments.
Fred Ray, executive head of the
board, has been in Pierre two days
this week going over the vast amount
of work, which is steadily piling up
for the organization when it is at
last perfected, and announced that
he was satisfied with the progress be-
ing made.
During his stay here he appointed
Mrs. Marguerite Morrison chief stem
ographer for the board.
Between this time and the time
of the next meeting some one or two
members of the board will visit Ma
olson, Wis, and st. Paul, Mimi,
where they will learn how those
states have handled the distribution
of their bonus money, Mr.. Ray an
nounced The board will then begin
putting on its force, beginning with
only a small number and adding 10
it as necessity demands.
The board estimates it will be able
to handle 200 claims day as soon
as it has sold the bonus bonds and
obtained the money, at which rate 1t
will complete the major portion OF
it's work within two months after
the money is available.
Until this money has been obtained
it will be of no avail for former
service men to communicate with
the board in the hope of obtaining
their bonus, Mr.. Ray stated.

Is Twice Shown
To Be Unworthy

Sioux Falls, May Am aftermath
of an attempt to evade service in the
American army, Abraham Wilensky,
alien, who was granted naturaliza-
tion papers some time ago on what
officials allege was a false path, was
arrested Tuesday afternoon at Brook
ings by United States Marshall Will
liam Hickey, and taken to Watertown
for preliminary hearing on a charge
of making a false oath.
According to the charges made,
Wilensky during the war claimed ex-
emption from the army upon the
ground that he was an alien and
therefore could not be called upon to
serve. Later, he decided that since
the war was over he would like to
be an American citizen, and applied
for naturalization papers.
He was asked in court IL he had
claimed exemption during the war,
and upon his oath stated that he had
not, but had been willing to serve
which, according to the records of
the selective draft, was an untruth,
officials say.

UNEMPLOYED
IN AMERICA
BIG INDUSTRIAL SECTIONS OF
THE EAST HARDEST HIT.

Chicago. May 2.-Slightly more
ployed in 10 states of the union when
May day is ushered in tomorrow, ac-
cording to estimates given to The
Associated Press by government, la
Dor, state and industrial officials.
A large percentage of those who
are unable to obtain work are in the
big industrial sections of the eastern
and central states, included in these
10 states from which unemployment
figures could be obtained, but re-
ports from the other 20 states where
figures were unobtainable, all show
that unemployment exists and the
estimated unemployment of the coun-
try, made by experts including labor
leaders, range from 100000 to s.
100000 persons.
Reports of much unemployment
show up from New York, Illinois.
Pennsylvania. Indiana, Michigan,
Wisconsin and Ohio while practically
every state east of the Mississippi
river and north of the Mason and
Dixon line is seriously affected by
the wave that has swept over the
country during the last year. The
reports indicate that the situation in
these more densely populated states
is growing more acute daily.
The report of the United States
government employment service
showed that on January first of this
year the leading cities of the country
with a population of 32,560,953 had
a total of 1,802,755 unemployed and
subsequent bulletins issued by this
service indicate that this number has
increased somewhat in these cities
during the last four months.
While the unemployment extends
to the west and south, yet in the re-
ports from the former decided tone
of optimism prevails for resump-
tion of business activity that would
speedily do away with the unemploy-
ment while in the south the situation
does not appear to be of a serious
nature and reports state that when
the agricultural work is in full swing
the surplus Of labor will be small.
New York City, Philadelphia, Chi
cago, Detroit and Cleveland stand
out as the centers of the unemploy-
ment wave.
In the country's largest city, re-
ports from experts indicate that ap-
proximately 1000 men and women
are out of work On January /,
this year the government estimated
that 234,243 we're unemployed in
Gotham and this has been increased
during the four months according to
the monthly bulletins of the indus
trial service.
The remainder of the state, how
ever, has not gone unscathed by any
means, for the reports from Albany
show that 364,000 of the states l.
100000 factory workers including
New York city are unemployed.
Other New York state cities report
unemployment on about the same
scale

FARMERS CREDITS
WILL BEEXTE|WDED
CRISSINGER AND FEDERAL RE-
SERVE BOARD PLAN TO EN-
TEND MONEY To FINANCE
CROPS.

Washington, May 2.-Plans for
extending to the farmers of the coun-
try adequate credits with which 10
finance this years crops were form
ulated Thursday at a conference be-
tween Comptroller of the Currency
Crissinger and the federal reserve
board
President Harding has already
pledged the farmers sufficient credit
to permit them to plant and harvest
this seasons crops. Details, he said,
were to be worked out by the federal
reserve board.
Comptroller Crissinger laid before
the board plan whereby so called
frozen" credits can be diverted
from speculative purposes to the far
mers.
The comptroller believes that al
though the banks are already carry
ing heavy loads of farm paper they
are in sufficiently healthy condi-
tion to warrant the extension of fur
ther credits.
Farmers have been unable to go
ahead with their plans for raising
this years crops because of lack of
credits, the comptroller said
Immediate assurance must be
given the farmers of the country
that their requirements for fertiliz-
ers, seed, implements and labor will
have the greatest measure of support
through the banks" said Mr.. Girls
