And he said as much to Shottle,

Ghottle, his mind on filing a flush.

That afternoon they set out on their
quest. But the scheme Of knocking at
every door soon seemed foolish and
impertinent. They decided to halt on

thought that night would be a filter

girl or Boyce at the theater.
They went to one, and from a stage
box gazed through rented glasses at
every face. Not there. They went out,
walked a short distance, talking not Of
disappointment but of hope, and
turned into a narrow and dlmly
lighted street. Suddenly there broke

Drace passed an uneasy night, his

room next morning, eager for praise
and reward, the truth came out. Ma
dine was indeed the daughter of old
Etepho; Liberty had overheard enough

CONFIDENCE CREATED
BY BROAD POWER OF
WAR FINANCE BODY
(By Associated Press)

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Oct. 3.-Broad-
ening of the powers of the war finance
corporation had caused a feeling of re-
newed confidence to sweep the coun-
try, Secretary Wallace, of the depart
ment of agriculture, declared today in
outlining before a meeting of farmers
and business men the obstacles which
stood in the path of agricultural devel-
opment before the corporation was re-
viyed and the federal reserve act
amended. Money became easier to
obtain, he declared, adding that a
more liberal policy on farm loans was
generally adopted; the sacrificing of
grain and livestock was checked and
the hope of the farmers was renewed
The story of the service rendered
by this agency, Mr.. Wallace continued
serves to illustrate the Importance OF
taking the affirmative rather than the
negative view in times of difficulty
There were many people who were
disposed to accept the disastrous
break in farm prices as inevitable and
impossible to relieve by government
action. They were people of the same
mind as those pious folks in days gone
by who looked upon a death in the
family from tuberculosis or typhoid
fever as a visitation of the wrath Of
, Divine Providence and not at all as {
thing which they might have avoided
by an observance of the now we'll
known laws of sanitation and health.
Act is Amended.
THE law which created the fedora
reserve board, the secretary continued
provided that il appointing member;
of that board the president should hav,
due regard to a fair representation o
the different commercial, industria
and geographic divisions of the coun
try Congress, however, passed a Law
amending the federal reserve act b!
providing that in appointing. the mem
bers the president shall have due re
gard to a fair representation of the Fl
nancial, agricultural, industrial ant
commercial interests The law as i
now provides for a board which shall
represent in fact cross-section of ou

PIKE IMPROVEMENT

being considered by Fountain City res
idents and property owners along the

probable.
Highway No. 81 is one of the most
important north-and-south roads in the
state and the greater part of the traffic
to Michigan and northeastern Indiana
points from east central Indiana and
southwestern Ohio goes over it. The
claim is made that as much traffic is
borne by the Richmond-Ft. Wayne pike

GRAIN TRADE URGED
TO AID ENFORCEMENT
OF FUTURES MEASURE

NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. 3.-Full
cooperation of the grain trade with
officials of the department Of agricuE
ture in the administration of the grain
futures act was urged by DR.. II. Q.
Taylor, chief of the bureau OF agricui-
tural economics, in an address today
at the annual meeting of the Grain
Dealers National association. The
department is as much interested, DR..
Taylor said, in seeing that the legiti-
mate handler of grain receives a fair
price for his services as it is in edu-
eating the farmer to market his prod
uct to the best advantage of himself
and the national welfare.
The attitude of the department to-
ward marketing and the county agent
system was touched upon by DIR. Tay-
| lor who explained that sit is not the
policy of the department to partici-
pate in the organization or operation
! of cooperative or corporate market
undertakings, but simply to collect and
disseminate information which may be
useful to any one interested in mar,
keting farm products"
| Broad View Taken
The reason, DR.. Taylor explained
further "for placing the administra
ton laws looking to the regulation OF
the cotton trade, the meat trade and
the grain trade in the department OF
agriculture is the broad economic point
of view taken by this department"
while the department is interested
in agriculture" he added, sit is also
interested in those industries and
services which are essential to the dis
| tribution of farm products. The grain
trade has reason to look with salts
faction upon the passing of the grain
futures act for had this act not beer
passed, bringing with it the reassur
ance of the people that the grair
trade would be operated in the public
interest, there is every probability
that destructive legislation might have
been enacted"
