Especial to the Palladium

CENTERVILLE, Ind, March =
Lower handling and distributing costs
and elimination of extra middlemen
so that the margin between producer
and consumer of grain could be halved
and prices to the farmer doubled with
out any increase to the consumer,
were possibilities held out as one of
the benefits of organization of a CO.
operative grain selling corporation, in
a talk made by ]. E. Scholl. farmer Of
Fayette county, at meeting of the
Center township farmers association
Monday night.
All grain is loaded, unloaded, and
trans-shipped at least five or six
times on its way from farmer to
miller, said Mr.. Scholl, while many
instances have been found of still
more frequent landings. Each hand
ling means extra expense. which must
come out of the grain, while each extra
shipment means a heavy addition in
freight charges, an especially heavy
tax at present freight rates.
Another waste was found in the
harvest-time shipment of grain, from
the territory where it had been grown,
to be stored at terminal and shipped
back for use before next harvest. This
means a double freight charge to get
out of the grain, although it is used
only few miles from the farm where
it was grown. This condition prevails
in the state of Indiana now. Too
much grain was shipped out at har-
vest time, a scarcity has developed
and the same grain must be shipped
back for use before next harvest.
Other Savings.
Besides the freight and handling
charges, other savings can be made in
conditioning and regarding grain. said
the speaker. From this activity alone,
Hoover's grain commission during the
war. although it sold the same grades
for the same price it paid for them,
came out of the war with half mil
lion profit, simply from the improve
ment in grades of grain while in their
hands.
Charges that salaries paid officials
of the United States Grain Growers
are too large, were ridicu]ed by Mr..
Scholl. The farmers cooperative is
paying its president $4,000 a year to
manage an institution larger in annual
turnover, investment and personnel
than the Pennsylvania railroad and
Stadard Oil combined. The salary of
| the president of the Pennsylvania rail-
! road is $4,000. So far from eXtrava
gance in salaries, said the speaker
| the danger is that the farmer members
! will not pay large enough salaries to
retain able men.
] Solicitors are getting an average OF
| three days work a week and pay their
own expenses, so that their per diem
salaries do not allow them much
| savings.
| Comparing the relative salaries paid
| in other branches of the grain bust

INDICTED FOR PERJRY
nv Associated Pressl

SAN FRANCISCO, March Mrs.
Minnie Neighbors of Los Angeles and
Mrs. Frances S. Bates of Chicago who
testified for the defense in the trials
of Roscoe c. (Fatty) Arbuckle, were
indicted on perjury charges early to-
day by the county grand jury.
Mrs. Neighbors testified at Ar
buckles trial that she saw Miss Vir-
sinia Rape in connection with whose
death Arbuckle is accused of man
slaughter at Wheeler Hot Springs,
Ventura county, California, in August,
1921, and that Miss Rape had suf-
fered two sick spells while at the hot
springs.
District Attorney Matthew Brady,
after the grand jury session said he
had presented the jury with evidence
to prove Miss Rape was not at the
springs at the time stated by Mrs.
Neighbors.
Il doubt if Miss Rape ever was at
this Hot Springs" said Brady.
Mrs. Bates testified at the second
trial of Arbuckle. She said she work
ed with Miss Rape in a Chicago de-
partment store in 1913 where the film
actress had been employed as a model.
Brady said he furnished the grand
jury with records from the Chicago
store to show that Mrs. Bates worked
at the establishment in 1909 was dis
charged in 1910 and had not be re-em-
ployed by the store.
Brady in statement giving his rea-
sons for asking the indictment said he
intended to prosecute "all persons who
commit perjury"
Il consider this far more important
than prosecuting persons charged with
other felonies," Brady said.

PALESTINE BEGINNING
TO AROUSE FROM ITS !
INDUSTRIAL SLUMBER
fBy Associated Press,

JERUSALEM. March 6-Palestine
is beginning to rouse from its long
industrial slumber Manufacturing In
dustries are springing up rapidly in
this country which could not boast of
a single industry for hundreds of
years under the Turkish regime. Now
the new industries are beginning TO
compete strongly with foreign manu-
facturers.
This change is attributed here to
Zionist capital and enterprise.
Carpet weaving ranks first in i'm
portance among the new industries.
The Jerusalem society has num-
Der OF looms which turn out remark
ably beautiful work. Jewish colonists
from Persia also have set up number
of factories which make carpet pat
terms for foreign consumption. the
United States is their chief buyer for
the present.
The manufacture of house and Office
furniture is making rapid strides. Two
| large Zionist factories are now busy
of Office and home for Palestine as
of office an dhome for Palestine as
well as for Egypt.
Develop Enterprises.
/
ing, wine producing, candy. brush and
| basket making are among the many
other enterprises which are being de-
veloped. Their promoters say they
are more than satisfied with results
dispite the general depression in
trade, prevailing the world over.
| Two existing handicaps, however.
J seem to arrest rapid growth. The firsl
is lack of electricity to run the ma
| chinery in factories and the second the
| lack of suitable harbors, piers and
sheds to facilitate the handling los
the sudden increase in imports an
exports.
The Gutenberg scheme for general
ing electricity from the River Jordan.
which has already been approved BY
the government in London and on
which work is to start soon is expect
ed to eliminate these handicaps.
The administration is bending its
utmost efforts to promote more enter
prises. An exhibition of home indus
tries, the first of it's kind in Pales-
tine. is being arranged for the first
week of April

INCOME TAX BLANKS
FOUND GREAT USE
IN ALASKA IN 1919
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March Interest
ing bits of information relating to
American incomes included in the
treasury departments report covering
returns for the calendar year 1919,
which has just been made public.
Contrary to popular opinion, the
largest percentage of returns, accord
ing to population was not from the
wealthy industrial centers but from
Alaska and the District Of Columbia.
The territory's showing 17.17 per
cent-was explained by the number of
individuals operating their own bust
ness, while that of the District of Col
umbia-13.40 per cent-was believed
to have resulted from the high ratio
of government employees with salaries
of more than $1,000 year.
The southern agricultural states in
variably were far down the list, Mis-
sissippi citizens making returns COM
prising only 1873 per cent of the total
population; North Carolina Las per
cent, and Alabama 174 New York
led in total returns with more than
100000.
An analysis made by the. treasury of
the sources of income showed that
lUOSS Ill Tie Fl,UUU-SA,UUU CldSS Outdli-
ed II per cent of their personal rev.
enue from wages and salaries, 3.8 per
cent from rents and royalties, IA per
cent from dividends and Al from in
terest on investments. This was con-
trasted with the taxpayer with an in
come of one million dollars who drew
only 1.34 per cent from salaries, %
per cent from partnerships, II percent
from sale of real estate, stocks, ETC.,
six per cent from rents and royalties,
38 per cent from dividends and IL per
cent from interest on investments.
Deduction permitted by the govern
ment also showed a wide variance
amounting to TAT per cent for incomes
between $1,000 and $4,000 and 20.43
per cent for income of 100000 and
over
Agriculture and related industries
comprised more than 81 per cent of
those making returns, trade" rs per
cent and public service %.
