sion made here by conference OF

tory OF the United States.
The conference unanimously ap-
pointed committee instructed TO

societies of the middle west have ac-
lively entered the field OF co-opera-
tive marketing.
At the present time the Northwest

ing agency for cooperative wheat
marketing rganizations of Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho, is the only
establishment now actually selling
wheat, Other states which have Or
ganization work under way or plan

Red Cross Will Feed
Children Below Normal

Grand Island, Neb., March 2
Especial )-Somewhat astounding il
was to nearly all Of the seven mem
bers of relief committee organized
some time ago, excepting Mayor
Ellsbcrry himself, to be requested
by Superintendent Barr of the pub
lie schools TO provide, il possible, a
pint of milk a day for 90 UNDER
nourished children in two OF the
eight schools of the city. The re-
quest was the result Of all investiga-
ton and examination made by the
school nurse maintained jointly by
the Red Cross and the school dis
trict. The canvass is believed to
represent about one-half OF the un-
der-nourished children OF the city,
Notwithstanding the fact that it COW
ers only one-fourth OF the schools.
The Rcd Cross offered to provide
the milk for the first three weeks,
as an experiment, it being agreed
with the superintendent that there
should, by that time. be complete
report as to the total of UNDER
nourished children and as to the re-
suit OF supplemental feedina.

Official Statement
This official statement ol tho
agreement OF the subcommittee was
issued by Chairman Fordney:
"The subcommittee consisting OF
Chairman Fordney, Messrs Green.
Longworth, Hawley, Treadway and
Copley have tentatively agreed upon
and prepared provision 10 be sub
mitted which in substance is as io'-
lows:
THE elimination OF the cash fea-
ture OF the bonus bill where the vet
Grams are entitled 10 more than $50

new loan provision 10 the adjusted
service certificate title which will en-
able holders OF such certificates 10

bank or trust company incorporated
under the laws OF any state so PEI
cent Of the sum OF the adjusted sery-
ice pay prior 10 September 80, 1925.
This date was fixed because after that
time the bill as originally drafted by
the comproyits for larger per-
centage OF loan by the government
aud has not been changed by the
subcommittee.
May ODtaln SdSn.
Chairman Fordncy said this plan
was expected to meet with general
approval since it enabled the soldiers
who may be in need to obtain cash
Immediately after the issuance Of the
certificates; would relieve the treas
ury OF any large cash payment dur
ing the enormous refunding opera
tions which must be carried out in
the next two years. and would place
no additional tax burden upon the
public.
Governor Harding of the federal
reserve board was before the sub
committee today discussing the in
terest and other questions. 1t was
suggested that the interest rate
should exceed figure greater than
2 per cent above the rcdiseount rate
OF the regional reserve banks. z
Under another tentative provision
being considered the title to the cer-
tiiicates could not be disposed OF by
the service men, the idea being, Mr..
Fordney explained, to prevent the
certificates falling into the hands of
loan sharks.
1t was explained that the $50 casl,
payment was retained in the bill
because the men entitled to only this
amount undoubtedly would prefer
the cash to a 20-year certificate.

Nebraskan Declares He Will
Not Support Treaty, Fol-

By GRAFTON WILCOX.
Omaha Bee Leased wire.

Washington, March 2.-Opposi-
ton to the four-power Pacific pact
grew more formidable today, fol-
lowing an important powwow Of
democratic chieitains at a dinner
given by Joseph P. Tumulty last
right to ex-Gov. James NJ. Cox Of
Ohio, democratic presidential NOM
inee in 1920
Senator Hitchcock OF Nebraska,
ranking democratic member OF the
foreign relations committee, who led
the fight in the senate i'll favor OF
the league of nations and who par
ticipated i'll last nights conference,
rose in the senate this afternoon and
declared against the four-power
pac;.
His action created something Of
a stir. because heretofore he had
been counted as one of the friends
OF the treaty. In the course OF the
debate, Senator Jones of New Mex
;co, democrat, also classcd as sup
porter OF the pact heretofore, indi-
Gated that he would join the opposi-
tion.
Witt, these and other reported
acquisitions to their ranks, the anti
treaty forces claimed to have within
three votes Of enough to defeat the
four power pact and they predicted
further converts. Thirty-three votes
arc necessary for rejection and the
opposition. votes now number about
50, according to ant-trcaty leaders.
Half dozen or more senators are
listed as doubtful"
Proponents Confident.
Administration leaders insist that
the democratic revolt will lose rather
than gain in strength and maintain
there is no serious danger of rejec-
ton of the four-power pact or any
other conference treaty.
Only four republican senator's.
Borah, Johnson. LaFollette and
France, are definitely off the reser-
vation and republican stalwarts are
confident that there would be no
further dcflections. This means
that Senator Underwood, the demo-
cratic leader, must deliver only eight
votes to assure the ratification of
the pact.
The Pacific treaties came in for
considerable discussion at the Tu-
multy-Cox dinner. The list of
guests included A. Mitchell Palmer,
former : attorney general; Senator
Hitchcock. Nebraska: Senator Pitt
man, Nevada; Senator Harrison,
Mississippi; Senator Robinson. Ar
