1921 the estimated income available

The Republican tariffs have not
only failed to help the farmer but
have actually added significantly to
his burden. The prices he gets for
his grain, cotton and other products
are dependent on foreign demand.
They must be sold abroad in compe-
tition with like products of other
countries. No American tariff can
alter this situation or operate to
give the American producer a favor
able market. But while utterly in
effective as a stimulus to agricul-
tural prices. the tariff does increase
the cost of living for the farmer and
every other individual and class. 1t
enhances the price of food, clothing,
fuel, implements, lumber, tools and
all else the farmer needs.

Two hundred and eighty-five OF
the approximately five hundred
breweries which have been engaged
in the manufacture of near-beer
have been reported for violation OF
the prohibition law. Ninety-five OF
them are now under seizure by the
Government.
The breweries owned or control
led three fourths of the saloons.
An investigation by the Judiciary
Committee of the United States
Senate on brewery and Liquor In
terests and German Propaganda" re-
vealed clearly that they planned to
control the United States by corrup;
methods and for. vicious purposes.
The Chicago Journal told the
truth when it said: 1.-THE simple and
Illuminating truth is that beer ana
pro-Germanism were tied together
and together the country threw
them overheard. The war showed
the brewery interests of America to
be honey-combed with treason,
working for German ends"
It is now proposed to hog-tie the
country and deliver it to the tender
mercies of an interest which never
observed any law, which was ofiicial-
" declared to. be shot. through with
disloyalty, which was hand IN glove

VICTORY BONDS REDEEMED.

The Secretary Of the Treasury ad-
vises that there are about $780,
600, 900 in Victory Notes, which
have been called for redemption on
December 18th, outstanding, a large
portion Of which. are held by indi-
viduals. The Victory Notes which
have been called for redemption
bear the distinguishing letters A,
B, C, D, e or F prefixed to their
serial numbers, and interest on
these called Notes will stop on De-
cember Is, 1922.
It is urged that all holders OF
Victory Notes make examination OF
their present holdings to see wheth-
er any have been called for redemp-
ton. and then make prompt presen-
tation of any called Notes, in order
to avoid loss of interest after Dec.
18th. Banks generally will handle
redemptions for their customers;
and the Federal Reserve Banks ana
Branches have provided special
facilities for the purpose.
Holders of Victory Notes called
for redemption on December 18th,
or of Treasury Certificates matur-
ing on December 18th, can purchase
the outstanding Liberty Bonds,
Treasury Bonds, or other Treasury
Notes at prevailing market prices
through their own banks, or il de-
sired, through the nearest Federal
Reserve Bank or Branch.

FARMERS IN .sTHROES OF DIS
TRESS," SAYS FARM BUREAU
OFEFCTAT,


American farmers as a class will
be poorer at the end of 1922 than
they have been in the. last half CEN
tuary, and they face 1928 with hard
ly any outlook for an improvement
of their condition. High taxes on
their lands and chattels, excessive
freight rates on what they market
and buy, the profiteers' tariff. and
unremunerative prices for their
products are among the factors
which have deprecated by many
billions the wealth and savings Of
farmers during the last eighteen
months.
Gray Silver, representative of the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
is authority for the statement that
the average net income of the
American farmer this year will be
only about $465. With an invest
ment of $50, 1000, 900 900, Mr.. Silver
says. American farmers are never

WIRE BREAKS DURING
JERSEY ELECTROCUTION
Cares Was Being Executed
for Murder of Little Girl.

TRENTON, Feb. 7.--One of the wires
OF the electric chair in the State prison
here became disconnected tonight while
George Cares was being put to death
for the murder Of fve-year-old Theresa
Kucharski IN New Brunswick last De-
cember. Slipping from the electrode at
Gares's knee, the live wire twisted and
curled about the floor for several min
utes before the electricians could re-
pair It.
AS soon as il was repaired, however,
the current was turned on again and
the execution proceeded. Cares was
nervous and badly frightened when he
went into the death chamber and was
not able to repeat the prayers chanted
by the two priests who accompanied
him to the chair.

RAIDS ON SCHOOLS
FOUGHT IN ALBANY
Legislature to Be Asked to
Abolish Control by Board
of Estimate.
Special Dispatch 10 THE NEw YorK HEsALD
New York Herald Bureau,
Eeh =

Albany, feb. ..
The Legislature Is 10 be asked to pass
a LII severing completely all relations
between the Board of Education in New
York and the Board of Estimate. Such
a bill is being drawn and will be intro
duced next week
The educational body would be set up
as an entirely distinct and separate
entity with no dependence on the city
administration for the conduct OF its
affairs. The State Department OF Bdu-
cation alone would have authority over
the New York body.
This is to be the outcome Of the de-
niand by Gov. Miller that politics be
kept out of the schools. Tammany's ef-
forts to grab the patronage OF the edu-
cational department, assisted by Mayor
Hylan, has led to this situation. The
Governor is not responsible for the meas
ure now being drawn, and as far as
known has not been consulted about IT..
but there is no doubt it will carry out
his views as expressed recently.
The Mayor now appoints members or
the Board of Education and through
those appointees controls the personnel
of the administrative force as we'll as
the chief offices in the teaching force.
The Board OF Estimate controls the
purse strings, telling the education Of
ficials how and where to spend their
money.
Increase in the membership of the
board to at least double it's present size
will be proposed in the bill. The num-
Der has not been determined. Jurisdic-
ton over the expenditure Of its funds,
including the purchase of school sites.
the construction of schools and all other
affairs will be provided. The school
officials then would not have TO go to
the City Hall for anything.
The understanding is that to assure
ample funds for the board the educa-
tional tax be increased slightly. Pos
sibly a point or two could be added to
the tax allowance from the total budget
for education. That would do away
with the constant wrangling about
finances between school officials and
City Hall and eliminate one OF the main
causes of the political intriguing.
The Meyer committee is engaged in
the preparation of the bill which is
expected to carry out this scheme. City
officials are expected TO raise protest
when they learn of the plan. The bill
as outlined has not been considered
even informally, by the Republican ma
jority, and its passage this session is
uncertain. With the Governors back
ing it might pass. but unless made a
party measure the outcome would be
doubtful.

PLANS GREAT MOUNTAIN CAMP
vide Hunting Lodge for the Tu-
bercular Ex-SoIdiers.

Curing tubercular ex-soldiers by Civ
ing them hunting lodge in the Ad-
lrondacks is the most recent plan of
the American Legion in New York
state. A mammoth mountain camp, 80
miles from Saranac lake, has been Sc
cured, its doors to be opened to the
10000 service men who cannot now
find bed. In the adjoining forest,
comprising $4,000 acres of state pre-
serve, will soon be scattered lean-tos
and shelters, where disabled men will
bunk in solid comfort, breathing the
air which can restore them to health.
Permission to use the preserve as
a hunting ground has been granted by
the state; and at the main camp on
Big Tupper lake there will be bowl
ing alleys. motor boats and athletic
fields at the disposal of the patients.
Each Legion post in the state has been
given the chance to put up its own
lean-tO, men of that post to be given
precedence in occupancy. Twenty
thousand dollars has already been sub
scribed to the fund.

MAY BACK VETERANS AS
FARMERS
Senator From Arizona Introduces
Bill Covering Federal Land
At Yuma

WASHINGTON, March 22-Further
means Of rehabilitating disabled
former service men by setting them
up" as farmers on Federal irrigable
land is provided in a bill introduced
today by Senator Cameron, Rebubli-
can, Arizona. The measure provides
for the withdrawal by the govern
ment of 200 farm units of five acres
each and the selection by the Veter-
ans Bureau Of 200 men undergoing
agricultural training to take over
project.
The land to be reserved for the
former service men is in the Mesa
division of the Yuma (Ariz.) Fed
eral irrigation project. Each man
would be advanced 81 900 with
which to start operations and the
land and irrigation construction,
water rights and other fees would
be amortized in forty years. Dur
ing the period of development, or
until contracts have been made by
the bureau with those who have
demonstrated ability to handle a
farm, the bureau is directed to
house them in temporary barracks
on the project site.
An appropriation of $500000 is
carried. which, Senator Cameron
said, could he used in ways that
business, if they desired to make
farming vocation. Los Angeles
