What do Columbia persons think OF
the wave of baby banditry" throughout
the Southwest? Kansas City's chief Of
police thinks that parents are to blame
for the criminal acts Of their children.
He said that parents pay too little at
ention to their children.
p. T. King, Columbia policeman, read
news story telling Of numerous crimes
of youths from l6 to 20 years old and
said. "Oh. there are a thousand and one
causes Of crime by youths. You can't
say that parents alone are to blame.
However. parents can avoid a great
deal Of it. The old Weasel gang here
was composed Of a group Of boys about
IL years old. They had their officers
and regular meeting place. Now, think
their parents were to blame for letting
them stay on the sreets until II and II
o'clock at night. The parents should
have found out where their sons had
been. or should have asked us if We
had seen them," he finished.
Numerous University students were
asked for their opinions on the matter.
All of the answers were like this:
mo. | don't think that parents are to
blame. There is complexity Of causes"

$95, cow WAS BASIS
FOR PUREBRED HERD
Glenn G. Davis, Columbia Dairy
Man, Worked Way Through
School and Into Dairy Game.

tThe foliouing article regarding Glenn
Dapis Of Columbia is from the Kansa'
City StU.)
Most men buy" their way into pure.
bred dairy game; that is, they purchase
considerable foundation stock at the be-
ginning Of their operations. Glenn G.
Davis of Columbia, Mo-, president of the
Missouri Holstein association, however,
worked his way in. He started with
one COW while freshman in the Uni
versity of Missouri. As he progressed
in his studies he also progressed in the
dairy business. When he left school he
had full sized herd all ready for his
Iife's work. Now he is one of the lead
ing breeders Of purebred Hols,ein cattle
in the Southwest.
Two factors got Davis into the busi-
ness so early. he ssit yesterday after
noon. One was the need Of Columbia for
more milk, the other was young Daviss
need for money TO help pay his college
expenses. So he united the two by rent
ing an old stable near his rooming house
and buying COW for sos.
The milk market was good and Davis
made money. He enlarged by buying
other cows Soon he had six or seven in
the old stable and had to move, going
TO the outskirts Of Columbia and renting
a farm.
In 1916 Davis finished school and
started daiVing in earnest. He pur-
chased few purebred Holsteins, but
good individuals, and continued supply
ing Columbia with milk Now he owns
his farm and has ninety head of pure
bred Holsteins on it.
One Of his best COWS was Campus
Chief Bills, purebred, which Davis pur.
chased for $3.50 as calf and which he
developed. He had her on the state fair
circuit as a 4year-old, in 1919, at which
she was a senior and grand champion /
five times and was third in the national !
dairy show. Her son, Halwood Korndyke. /
is the present Davis herd sire Four of 1
his daughters were entered in shows by I
Davis last year, winning the get of sire I
class at five state fairs and placing Sec
ond at four. All were junior champions
showing in the individual classes and, a
peculiar situation, each one has beaten
her sisters in the show ring. Davis has
sixteen Of Halwood Korndyke's get now
on his farm.
My advice 10 the young man starting
in the purebred game,' Davis said lis
not to try to stock up too heavily. buy
good cattle and feed and care for them
properly. Under that program it is al.
most impossible not to succeed"

for supporting Senator Reed for the U

Long spoke at Centralia, he was intro
duced by H. L. Pruet,, a member of the
Democratic committee Of Boone County
who said that money interests which were
not for the best in the government were
seeking the nomination of Reed. Among
several, Mr.. Pruett mentioned the name
of Samuel ". Fordyce.
In letter. Mr.. Fordyce replies:
when you attack me you are attacking
Senator Reed, and as do not wish his
candidacy because of the sinister M.
tives that you impuie to me, | consider it
my duty to the Democratic party to write
you fully.
In all of my political contributions
have been actuated solely by a desire to
give the people of the state and country
the benefits Of the principles Of the Dem.
ocratIc party.
Mr.. Fordyce goes on to say that
he has never expected any reward
for his contributions, which have
been made over a period of years, or that
he was entitled TO any particular credi,
or consideration at the hands Of the party
or Of the candidates in whom he. for the
party's sake, has been interested. Mr..
Fordyce gave brief resume Of his con-
tributions and his work in the interest

Fordyce made his first contribution Of

no reason why Senator Reed should be

 More Farm Loan Bonds
 The government expects to make another public offering of farm loan bonds, probably May l. Announce nent of the offering may be expected shortly.
 Close observers of national fnanc- ing are beginning to think that the government may find itself com pellad ere long, to float another bond issue of s1, 0oo 900 eco or thereahouts Nothing definite, of course, has been decided at this early date; but the trend of coming events indicates that such a course may have to be fol- flowed. Business is beginning to com pete with the government for money: the unexpected falling off in tax re- ceipts and the higher cost of running the governments affairs, plus a prob able bonus to ex-sePviee men, threaten to send the treasury deficit up to such proportions that a bond issue may be advisable. At present, however, there are no indications that the government is preparing to take this particular course to meet it's needs
 
 swinging upward. The movement during February was upward three points in the index number; indica- tions are that March returns will show another rise. Farm products have gone up about eight points, the government estimates.
 Gasoline to Advance
 An advance in gasoline prices, ob- servers believe, may be expected lur- ing the coming month. Big oil inter ests are storing such a surplus of oil as has never been seen before. The bureau of mines reports the huge stock of T05,7l1,o ,o0e gallons on hand February 1. and indications are that lit will reach the peak of nearly s0o,- eco, 900 gallons during this month. Losses on fuel oil, kerosene and lubri- eating oils are made up by profits on gasoline, and interest charges on huge stocks must be taken into account, 1t is pointed out,
 Automobile manufacturers expect to duplicate last years output. but do not expect to exceed 1t. While two or three price cuts have been made recently in popular makes of cars, several advances also have been noted and others are confidently expected in the trade. These are justified, 1t lis claimed. by higher quality in some cases, such asethe Packard, whose manufacturers expect to bring out new six-eyiinder car this month.
 Interest in radio has put two of the largest manufacturing concerns in the industry on a straight 24-heur Ia day working basis in order to catch LID with a torrent of orders. Some of the manufacturers are more than month hehind and are running three shifts a day at their factories. Five months ago supply exceeded demand,
 Security prices still swing slowly upward The movement seems des- tined to continue in conservative manner unless the coal strike situa- ton becomes serious or the govern |inent steps into the money market much more heavily than it has done during the past few months.

 The strike threat was a blessing s during March to both coal opera tors and railroads. Not since 1Sz0 have the operators had so satisfactory a month. Their output went up, pre- liminary returns to the car service division indicate, to not far from 2,ooo,00 tons a day in the soft coal fields during the last ten days of March, Four months age they were mining from 1,e00,eo0 to 1.25e.o tons day.
 Railroad blessings came largely in the form of an unusually heavy vol | me of traffic, due to the strike threat. The increased traffic. accord ing to returns to the Association of Railway Executives may swing March into place as the banner fFeight-car- rying month since 1920, If so, net earnings should be quite satisfactory. April, however, probably will see earnings drop considerably.
 Ne Emergency to Meet
 In contrast to the ante-strike period of 191s, the present strike was not preceded by mobilization of coal cars in the nonunion fields, Officials of nonunion coal railroads have shave held two meetings here recently to draw plans for meeting the emer- dHnfdNd fhaFa yunn10 not be any emergency to meet.

 An agreement. however, has been made with other roads whereby more cars win be furnished nonunion mines without delay if needed.
 Both the government and the opera tors are fearful that there will be bloodshed in mining sections of West Virginia, Pennsylvania and possibly Ohio. Machine guns, small arms and ammunition in plentiful quantities have been shipped into at least one big field as measure of prepared ness.
