RESERVEBOARD
MAKES SURVEY
OF ACTIVITIES
Says Railroads Must Share
Losses in Process of Price
Reduction.

WASHINGTON, Dec. business ex-
pansion was to await freight reductions.
Prospect of rate cuts has temporarily un-
settled prices, and halted progress in
many lines Manufacturing centers have
been forced to let up because buyers,
confident of lower railroad rates and still
further cuts in quotations on some com
modities, have curtailed their demands.
The Federal Reserve Board thus
summed up the commercial status OF the
country today. The board had before it
the latest reports of its reserve bank
agents and directors. The reports lacked
some of the very confident predictions
of previous surveys.
FREIGHT RATES
CHIEF OBS TRUCTION.
The business community, these reports
clearly show, demands that the railroads
take their share of the loss of reduction
in the process of price imitation, and is
prepared to hold back until either the
Government or the railroads themselves
make a real effort in that direction.
Members of the reserve board agree
with other high officials of the Admins
tration that while. railroad rates do not
constitute the chief obstruction to lower
living costs, they do continue to block
the way for hundreds Of industries, in
the plans to scale quotations downward.
The farmers still are bearing the brunt
of the REIMBURSEMENT tangle, the board
said.
The prices CT their products have
suffered another crop but the things they
must buy in actual necessaries continue
high and some of them in fact near the
peak of wartimes. Some of the indus
trial groups, chiefly the steel and iron
trades are held responsible for the re-
serve board for some Of the business I'M
certainty.
FOREIGN
COMPETITION FACTS.
Foreign competitors, demonstrating how
easy it is to lay their goods down in
America, at prices fifty to seventy five
per cent lower than the prices quoted by
some OF these industries. are starting in
with trade warfare in American markets,
and officials look for such pressure to
stop some Of the profteering 50 clearly
in evidence.
The board takes a most optimistic view
of the banking situation generally, of the
large purchasing power Of the public
which is strongly exerted In retail lines
where reasonable prices are in effect, and
OF the foreign export trade business vol
ume Optimism also was expressed over
the reductions In the ranks Of the iobless.
Rising prices for Liberty bonds and
other Government securities also was ac-
cepted as another hopeful sign Of the
times.

BOY SCOUTS MAKE
GOOD SHOWING
Very Satisfactory Dona
tions Coming from our
Generous Farmers

The Boy Scouts of Troop l went
out Tor a short time Saturday and
gathered a goodly amount of corn
to go to feed the starving children
of Europe, under the auspices of
the Near East Relief.
The boys were handicapped by
the fact that they had no cars, and
the limited time made it impos.
slble to reach out very far. How
ever, they are still little short of
their quota as scouts alone but
there is some coming in every day.
Following is a list of donors
through the troop:
l. L. Williams, 3 sacks; Charles
jenkins, 8 sacks; William Kom-
mes, / sack; Peter NJ. Petersen,
2, sacks; John Wolfe, sack; Axel
Faaborg. 2 sacks; Albert Bintner,
sack; George Anderson, | sack;
Hans Anderson, sack; Martin
Jessen, 5 sacks; Dennis Petersen,
,3 sacks; Abel Stone, 4 sacks; Bert
Hill, 10 sacks; Frank Tibben, 3
sacks; Orwin Masching, 2 sacks;
Frank and Clyde Dimick, sack;
Wesley Donaldson, sack; Henry
Carter, l sack; Fred Back, 4 sacks.
Coupled with a previous dona-
ton Of fifty-nine bushels made by
Martin Jessen, this makes nice
showing.
There is at this time with no
need of future help twelve thou
sand boys and girls in Armenia
whose lives were saved three years
ago through this same process. All
railroad and mill charges are free
on this material and five bushels
of corn will undoubtedly save the
life of some child over there under
fourteen years of age during thi:
winter. Can Iowa, staggering un.
der an unprecedented yield o.
corn, out of her generous bounty
save the lives of the many who are
facing actual starvation.
Leave your corn any time thi.
week either at Voss Wood Shop o.
at elevator, and to you the thanks

Scoutmaster.

Tennegkeit Loses in
His Case Against Sheriff

A suit which attracted wide at
tention in Audubon county took
place in Council Bluffs last week.
Tennigkeit, who it will be re-
membered, received rough treat
ment at the hands of some of our
citizens during the world war on
account Of his pro German utter
ances and his refusal to lend his
assistance in the struggle with
Germany by purchasing liberty
bonds, brought suit against Sheriff
Wilson and his bondsmen, Ed
johnson and Charles Van Gorder,
for alleged i'll treatment. He
asked for $4,000 from Wilson and
SIS, 900 from the bondsmen.
Tennigkeit was well-to-do
German farmer of near Audubon.
He staid at home and raked in the
shekels during the high. prices Of
farm products while so many of
the boys were fighting in the
trenches many OF them giving
their lives for the protection of
our homes and liberty. 1t is not
strange that, at his refusal to lend
his aid, his neighbors became en-
ragged and compelled him to let go
of some of his gains
Tennigkeit was called into Au-
dubon to face the council of de-
fense. A crowd gathered at the
bank where he had gone and de-
manded that he give $1,000 to the
Red Cross. 1t is said that at his
refusal there was a rough anc
tumble" hair-pulling time and in
the shadow of a dangling rope he
was compelled to yield; the sheriff
too, receiving rough treatment il
his attempt to protect Tennegkeit
At the hearing last week the
fjury was out but fifteen minute,
when they brought in verdict fo
the defense, thus completely exon
nerating the sheriff and his bonds
men.

BIG CONFERENCE ON
IN WASHINGTON.
General Trend of Opinion
Seems to Favor Reduc-
tion of Armaments

The world conference on the linn
itation Of ornaments opened its
sessions in Washington D. @. Sat-
urday. President Harding gave an
address after which they proceeded
to organize the complex body of the
world statesmen and to get the
committee work underway.
Americas proposal for reducing
ornaments shows our earnestness
of purpose Great Britain and Japan
have expressed themselves in favor
of armament reduction but not to
the extent desired by America.
Some Of the other countries fear for
their national safety should their
armaments be reduced but the gen.
eral trend seems to be toward re-
duction. America demands pro-
gram Of limited armament that
will be definite.
Toe American delegation has
taken a stand for open sessions but
will not dictate as to the policy to
be followed. The European dl-
plomats are not favorable to or
experienced with public sessions
but pressure will be brought to
bear on the foreign delegates to al
low press representatives to be pre-
sent a. the majority Of the sessions
The influence OF lobbyists who
are quietly working to bring about
failure for the convention is al
ready felt in Washington. The
manufacturers of war materials are
mastering all their forces to oppose
the purpose Of the convention but
the administration, in preparing
for the conference, took into con
sideration the influence which
these manufacturers, both in Eur
ope and America will exert and be.
lieves that their activities will not
seriously affect the results of the
conference.
