FL Lindberg left his home early
Wednesday evening. ostensibly to
sxskeep an appointment with his son,
7 Gus Ecker, Forty-ninth street and

ssafill in the time he went to the boat
zuhouse Of his friend, Emil Peterson.
szsat the foot Of Forty eighth street,
and after talking with Mr.. Peter
ssson for a while, he took one of the
rowboats, saying he was going for
4 ia little ride. He left his coat with
the proprietor Of the boat livery.
ssesThis is the last time, so far as is
8knOwn, that he was seen by any OF
n his friends.
~ Family Worried.

BREST-LIT0vsK TREATY VOID
Berlin and Moscow Sign New Pact
War Claims Cancelled,

Genoa-A treaty between Germany
and Russia has been signed at Ra-
pallo, the signatories being the for
eign ministers of the two countries,
George Chitcherin for Russia and DR..
Walter Rathenau for Germany.
The treaty nullifies the Brest-Litovsk
treaty and re-establishes full diplo-
matte relations on an equality basis.
The pact cancels all war claims, as
well as claims arising from the nation
alization of property.
The treaty signed, it is stated, rep
resents the conclusion of negotiations
begun many months ago. This action
by delegates to the Genoa economic
conference, in meeting independently
and negotiating treaty outside the
scope of the conference itself, is point
ed out as establishing striking pre-
cedent for the nations who are partici.
pating in the session of the Russian
problem here.

TO alter SPRING
WHEAT GRADES
Substitutes Are Offered to De.
mands of Northwest Grain
Farmers.

Washington-There will be no
changes in the spring wheat grades
in response to the widespread demand
Of Northwest growers for such
changes, Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace announced in prepared
statement.
Instead of acceding to the call for
grading changes, the secretary pro.
poses the following substitutes, which
he believes will remedy the situation:
First-Modificatio of inspection
rules requiring inspectors to specify
in addition to the grades fixed the
percentage of moisture and foreign
material in wheat.
Second-Furnishing of daily infor-
nation to the farmers as to the prices
millers are paying for wheat bought
by sample on the cash markets.
Mr.. Wallace believes that the wide
spread dissatisfaction with the federal
grades for spring wheat is due largely
to poor grading at country points and
to the lack of proper market informa-
tion. He considered the grades them
selves as satisfactory.
Agitation for Change.
For long time there has been an
agitation in the Northwest for a
change in the spring grades. 1t is
likely that the decision of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture as announced will
come as disappointment to many
growers who have demanded changes
in order chat they might get the mill.
ing values for their products.
