THE FUTURE OF RICE

Since the world has awakened to the
value of hulIed rice, or the grain in its
natural state, called brown rice, and its
nutritive value has been recognized,
rice culture has taken an upward turn.
For centuries the Chinese and Japan
csc have utilized rice and its products,
from matching their houses with straw
to making footwear of it, making pa
per Of it, and eating the grain, as well
as manufacturing rice wine, which, de-
licious in taste, requires only about a
thimbIeful to intoxicate the ordinary
individual Now America has discov-
cred that it can make paper from rice
straw instead Of devastating our for
ests. 1t already makes not only rice
milk, but numberless other products
for dairy use.
The rice Journal, Beaumont. Texas,
says anent theeuse of e-"It is only
necessary to educate people to cook
rice properly" (which few in the
North dol and make the graves
that are 50 famous in the South, and
that are being taught the housewife
of the present, as we'll as the housewife
of the future"
Because brown rice is far more pal
atable, as we'll as nourishing, efforts are
being made to place such rice on the
market at prices the masses can reach
instead of, as heretofore, at fancy
prices, as if it were rare and choice
gem. A process has now been employ
ed whereby such rice will keep and be
insured from becoming rancid or In
tested by weevils, without imparing the
value of the grain.
We take from The Rice Journal the
following table, which will prove of in

ISOLATION POLICY
 SHOULD BE ENDED

Washington, Dec. 20.-"America must play her part in world affairs says President Gonlpers in an appeal to the progressives now Tn congress. The appeal is contained in an edi- torial to appear in the January issue of the American Federationist, en- titled "Progressives, Be Leadersp
 'sIn taking our place in world af- fairs there is measure of self pro- tection,p the editorial states. "We shall be assisting in the protection of civilization against the forces of de- cay and superstition and destruction But the supreme satisfaction will be in the spiritual satisfaction of doing right.
 Before the newly strengthened group of progressive legislators there opens magnificent opportunity Be fore them there is clear duty. Upon them is a great and solemn obliga- tion.
 The fidelity to the cause of human welfare that has given these men their progressive stamp is that which in its full application should lead them to pronounce to the world Americas determination to help the.fworld right itself and save itself. America must play her part; she must be helpful everywhere and III every way.

LASKER KNOWS NOTHING
 OF SHIPPING INDUSTRY

Washington, Dec. 2o.-Why follow the views of Chairman Lasker of the shipping board on the question of ship subsidy2 asked Mir McKellar of Ten nessee on the floor of the senate.
 "As understand, prior to two years ago MT. Lasker never had any thing to do with shipping, and I ex- pect that after about two years he will never have anything more to do with shipping He has been engaged in other business. Shipping has not been his life work, and why should we fol- olw his views on subject he certain ly knows no more about than other people?
 Mind you, MT. Lasker talks about subsidy He has little, if anything, to say about acquiring business for our merchant marine Acquiring business is. not in his mind He wants to get rid pf the ships. He wants the gov eminent to dispose of them to private parties and then pay those parties a cash subsidy for running them. That is the burden and gist of his testi- mony
 He talks about the necessity of our merchant marine being used in time of war as an auxiliary to our navy This is matter that he has nothing to do with except indirectly. He was at the head of the shipping board for the purpose of building up our merchant marine, not for the purpose of building up our navy. Our navy is in other hands"

KELLER PROTESTS
 WHITEWASHING OF ATTORNEY GENERAL
Congressman Withdraws From Pro ceedings and Ignores Summons
 to Appear.

Washington, Dec. 2o.-Refusing to assist in the whitewashing of Attor- ney General Daugherty, Congressman Keller withdrew from the impeach- ment case and ignored summons to appear before the house judiciary committee
 The committee would like to cite the Minnesota congressman for con tempt, but is not sure of its ground, and is Investigating the question.
 Prior to the withdrawal of MT. kel- Ter, President Gonpers testified that he was invited to call on the attorney general, who told the trade unionist that he. intended to appoint William J. Burns to his present position. President Gompers stated that he pro- tested this appointment.
 Former Attorney General Wicker sham testified regarding the jury-hx- ing in the Oregon land case in which Burns was involved. Attempts were made by the committee to connect MT Wickershan' position in this case with politics.
 When Jackson H. Ralston, A. F. of l.. counsel, insisted on evidence being presented, several members objected. To this policy Congressman Michen- CT, a member of the committed, pro tested
 "This is not whitewash;- this. is an investigation" he said Because of that, I, for one, want, this thing gone into from top to bottom. There has been proffer of something that smells bad Tn court It IS brought here as tending to show there is something ratten in Denmark. I don't want these people to Say we have given them no chance"
 Testifying for Burns, Senator John son of California surprised the com mittee by his frank statements. In matter of veracity between Burns and former Attorney General Wickersham he said he would accept the word of Burns.

UNION-SMASHING ROAD IGNORES
 COURT ORDER

San Francisco, Dec 2o-Agents of the Southern Pacific railroad are ap- pealing for public support in the Southern's fight to retain the Central Pacific railroad, though the United States supreme court has ruled that the roads must be separated.
 The 5. P. representatives talk of the human side" and claim that if the court decision stands employees will lose their jobs and their social life will be destroyed. This claim is humor- ous, coming from a corporation that has locked out its shop men and is now attempting to smash their unions.
 In its effort to evade the supreme courts decision this railroad has car ried its case to the interstate com to create public sentiment that will permit it to ignore the courts order.
 This IS the historic policy of no- torious union-smashing landgrabbing corporation. When the government was forcing 1t to let loose of the Cen tral Pacific the solicitor general of the United States declared there was nothing in the railroad history of this country to compare with the South ern Pacihc's methods.
 In 1866 congress permitted this company to select alternate sections Gone square nile) on each side of the track, for 10 miles back from the track Mineral lands were excluded, but in July, IoI4 the United States supreme court annulled that provis- ion and gave the company mineral rights to the value of untold millions of dollars Following the valuable land grants in I866,, congress passed what is known as the lieu laws, which permitted the Southern Pacific to ex- change it's waste lands for lands that were located anywhere in the public domain. The company grabbed valu- able tracts in the northwest every acre of which was hundreds of miles from it's nearest track.
 When congress voted the land 1t also voted bonus of $35,ooo mile to build the road. In 1885 the Pat. terson commission reported that the. road building cost less than $3o,ooo a mile, thereby handing over to the company an additional $5,ooo per mile
 The above are few main points in the history of this legislative corrupt ing, land grabbing, court-defying, union smashing corporation that is now pleading for public support in it's defiance of the United States supreme court.

WAR FRAUDS BY
NKDEA[ERS
CHARGED
Government to Lay Evidence
In Surplus Property Sales
Before Jury.

Charges that junk dealers in a
number Of cities had conspired to
cheat the Government in buying
war surplus supplies at auction
sales will be- laid before grand
juries as basis for indictments, it
was learned at the Department of
Justice today.
See Copper Scandal.
The charges relate to purchases Of
different classes of materials left
over the war and sold piecemeal in
auction sales over the past two years.
The supplies are usually offered to
the highest bidder.
Irregularities in the buying OF
copper provide one chapter of what
officials describe as "a scandal" :"
Large stocks of surplus copper have
been parceled out in various sales to
comparatively small number Of
junk dealers. Copper thus offered
has been bought up quickly. but at
far below a fair market price, ac-
cording to investigators.
Conspiracy Alleged.
Junk dealers in many instances. II
is alleged, have conspired together
so as to remove the element OF com.
petition in the auctions and leave to
a single dealer, at a given sale, the
option Of buying in the materials at
his own price. The price so paid
allowed the junk dealer to sell to
manufacturers or refiners at an
enormous profit.
Junk dealers. by 80 manipulating
the bidding at sales. have deprived
the Government of many millions OF
dollars. 1t is even alleged that the
dealers in some cases. by reason of
the alleged conspiracies. were able
to negotiate contracts for the sale of
materials in advance Of the date set
for the auctions, so certain were they
Of obtaining the materials at their
own figure.
Suspect Practice Widespread.
To what extent dealers Of various
kinds may have similarly arranged
non competing auction buying in the
purchasing Of other classes of war
material, including Shipping Board
supplies, Is to be thoroughly inves.
tigated, 1t was learned today. The
information upon which the Govern.
ment is now proceeding is said to
have been obtained by Federal dis
trict attorneys in different localities.
Copies of contracts, by which II In
said to be clear there was an intent
to defraud the Government, are in.
cluded in evidence which may later
be laid before grand juries.
