the mail order houses have had the

WASHINGTON

The bill to provide for purchase and sale of farm porductsfhrOugh a $100,- 100000 government corporation, intro duced in the Senate by Senator Nor ris, Republican, Nebraska, was pre- sented in the House by Representative Sinclair, Republican, North Dakota.
 A Senate debate on the recent utter ances of former Premier Clemenceau of France took sensational turn when a negro wearing the uniform of the United States army interrupted from the gallery a speech by Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, ranking Demo crat of the foreign relations commit tee, regarding alleged atrocities by black French troops in Germany.
 Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover, who directed the conference of the Colorado River Commission at Bishops Lodge in Santa Fe, which re- suited in the signing of an interstate compact governing the use for the ba- sin of the waters of the river, issued the following statement after the ad- jOurnment of the sessions: ''The big thing about the Colorado river com pact is that it breaks the blockade on development of the whole river; 1t al lows us all to go ahead with river de velopment and with flood protection for the Imperial valley"
 There can be no question that the Washington government views the present situation in the Near East with its threat against world pease, as natural Outgrowth of the commercial and economic rivalry among European powers that has kept the region in ferment for years.
 Federal tax collections during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1922, fall off almost $1,4OG,OOO,OOO, or 30 per cent, as compared with the previous year, according to the annual report of the internal revenue bureau, issued in Washington by Commissioner Blair. Income and profits taxes collected dur ing the year showed a decrease of $1,- Al, 100000, or 35 per cent.

PROTEST OF ENGLAND FAILS TO SAVE LEADERS FROM FIR
 ING SQUAD.
OFFICIALS EXECUTED
SIX ADMINISTERS ARE PUT TO DEATH FOR GREEK DEFEAT
 IN TURKEY.

Athens-The British minister, F. O. Lindley, has notified the Greek gov ernment that Great Britain has broken off relations with Greece and he has left Athens.
 c. H. Bentinck, British member of the financial control, remains here.
 The precedent of such action by the British probably is the break in dip lomatic relations with Serbia in 1908 as result of the murder of the Ser bian majesties by revolutionaries.
 The official announcement issued after the execution of the ministers says:
 "MesSrs. GOunaris, Baltazzis, TheO- tOkis Protopapadakis, Stratos and General Hadjanestis were condemned to death and were executed.
 General Stratigos and MT. Goudan were sentenced to penal servitude for life. The military defendants were also sentenced to degradation, and the following fines were inflicted: GOu- naris, 100000 drachmas; StratOs, 335,- 900 drachmas; PrOtopapadakis, 500,- GOO; Baltazzis, 100000; TheOtOkis, 100000; Goudas, 100000 drachmas."
 The execution of the condemned men was by shooting.
 The trial of several former Greek ministers and military off ials who were charged with high t. I as the result of the army's recen. defeat by the Turks began Nov. 13. The court martial was instituted by decree of the revolutionary committee after an investigation by a special committee of inquiry had resulted in a report charging treason.
 Former King Constantine was de- clared exempt from the charges on the ground that he was not responsible for any acts that led to the triumph of the Turkish armies. It was decided that his ministers must bear the full responsibility.
 The accused men were permitted to testify in their own defense.
 A statement issued by the court martial which condemned to death the former ministers, giving the req sons for imposing the sentences of death, says in effect that the defend ants knowingly concealed from the people the danger involved in King COnstantine's return to the throne, and that although Greece was break ing away from her alliances, they did their utmost to consolidate COnstan- tines throne in order to enjoy office under him.
 The Greek government issued a statement of its policy. It declares 1t is aware of the difficulties of the pres ent situation and will do it's utmost to secure the rights of Greece, organiza- tiOn of the army, purificatiOn and re- construction of public service, preser- vation of order, protection of the legit- innate interests of the workers and the of illicit speculation.

French May Act Independently.

Paris.-Although the majority of the members of the reparations commits sion are opposed to Premier POin- cares plan for direct action for the collection of the German indemnity, there is growing feeling that the French government will soon be in a position where it will be forced to take independent measures against Ger many. This impression is based on the uncertainty as to whether the proposed inter-allied financial conference at Brussels will actually take place.

Thirty-one persons were injured, several seriously, when Wabash pas senger train No. 20, bound from St. Paul and Minneapolis to St. Louis, was derailed at Willard, near Kirksville, Mo. A broken rail was ascribed as the cause.
 Fifteen cOnvicts, four of them serv- ing life terms, made their escape rom the Marquette, Mich, branch prison. Later two of them were captured, the searchers being impeded by a hea-.' snow storm. Crawling through a steam pipe tunnel, which runs under the pris- on yard and one of the cell blocks, the fugitives made their way into the base ment under the warden's residence by digging under three concrete walls and a steel door.
