Armed guards were placed on all

Washington, June S.-(Special Tel
egram. Omaha is to be made one
of the great centers of plan to
broadcast by radio information on
crops, weather and market condi.
tions, national in character, and
worked out by government agencies,
according 10 an announcement made
by the Department of Agriculture.
This information will be sent out
by the Arlington and Great Lakes
stations. together with the postof-
flee stations at Omaha and at North
Platte in Nebraska.
A daily report of the livestock and
grain markets at such strategic
centers as Omaha will be one Of the
features OF the service.
Will Start June IS.
This new service will start June
IS, and according to w. A. Wheeler.
in charge of the radio work of the
department, is the most important
step yet taken in broadcasting agri-
cultural information. Important as
it is, this is just q step, and later
developments are forecast as being
almost weird in their completeness.

says the department, will be used
70 broadcast the reports, but it is
expected that there will be consid-
cradle rebroadcasting by radio tele-
phone so that any one in the eastern
two-thirds of the United States hav-
ing radio telephone receiving sets
may be able to receive the messages.
Plan Is Approved.
The plan has been approved by
the interdepartmental radio commit
tee, composed Of the departments Of
agriculture, commerce, postoffice,
war and navy, and contemplates the
use Of high-powered navy stations at
Arlington, Great Lakes, Puget
Sound, San Francisco and New Or
leans; certain army stations, such as
those now located at Fort Bliss. and
Fort Sam Houston, Texas, and the
present postoffice stations which
have been broadcasting agricultural
reports for more than a year at

A distinguished philosopher, in I

to hundreds Of babies who otherwise
would undergo untold suffering DUR
ing the hot summer months, justifies
this claim. Each year score OF in

Belgrade, June 8.-Medieval pomp
and splendor marked the wedding
here today OF King Alexander and
Princess Marie OF Roumania. Nearly
every nation in the old and new
world was represented at the cere-
mony. which linked the dynasties of
three Balkan countries, forming q
powerful barrier against future wars
in this turbulent part of Europe. The
event probably will remain un-
matched for a long time in Balkan
annals for its political significance; |;
the lavishness and beauty of its set
tings; the enthusiasm and fefvor Of
the people; the picturesqueness OF the
professions, and the quaintness Of
the presents to the bride and groom.
Girlish Beauty.
The bridal gown was an antique
creation of white crepe georgette,
with long court train, embroidered in
pure silver and crystals, and the prin-
cess wore over her tulle veil shower
Of scintillating gold strands. She was
a picture of girlish beauty, dignity
and grace as she was escorted to the
altar by her father. King Ferdinand
Of Roumania. From her shoulders
fell large court mantle in brilliant
silver, at the lower end Of which the
double arms OF Roumania and Jugo-
slavia were embroidered in silver and
gold. King Alexander presented his
bride with massive crown of gold.

Measure Formally Reported
Following Attempt by
Democratic Member
to Delay Action.
Long Battle Predicted

Washington, June S.-The SOL
diers bonus bill was formally pre-
sented tonight to the senate after .
first effort by Chairman McCum-
Der Of the finance committee to re-
port il AZ the opening OF the session
had been blocked by Senator Will
liams, democrat. Mississippi.
Senator Williams was absent from
the sef,atc when Senator McCum-
Der presented the measure for the
second time. but came into the
chamber a few minutes afterward.
The presentation followed a quorum
cali and was without discussion. The
bill automatically went to the SEN
ate calendar.
In attempting to offer the bill
soon after the senate met, Senator
McCumber said: I'm the very near
future / hope to be able to lay
aside the tariff bill for a day or so
for the purpose OF considering and
passing. il possible, the compensa-
ton bill"

BILL" he added. I'VE have nothing
but an. American bill. ! hope we
s shall be able to dispose OF It as an
American measure in the same spirit
that we voted for appropriations to
carry on the war"
Underwood Favors Action.
Senator Underwood, the demo-
cratic leader, expressed the hope
that when the bill was called up it
would be by vote OF the senate
and that unanimous consent TOR its
consideration would not be request
ed. He said ii il was proposed to
pass the bill at this session 1t
might as we'll be considered now as
in July or August. :,
II should be very glad" he added,
IF the bill went over until after the
election, so>that the American peo-
pie might have an opportunity TO
voice their sentiments on the SUD-
/, ject."
Senator Underwood said he felt
Athat the bonus bill, if passed, will
hot only work injury to the Ameri-
scan people, but will; in the end,
swork an injury to the men whom it
proposes to help" He estimated the
lbill would cost anywhere from
$4,000. 100000 to $7,000.0O0,000 and
said it was drawn in such way
that it would have to be paid for in
ihe future and thus would become
a burden upon the ex-soldiers them
selves. s m
Senator McCumber explained he
was stopped from offering any such
motion by the 'gentlemen's agree
ment" that controversial legislation
would be called up without advance
notice being given to senators.
Canvass Shows Majority.
Informal canvasses of each side
have indicated that the bonus legis-
lation has substantial majority In
the senate, but whether the amend
ed house bill will be approved is
paoblematical. In any event q loag
fight on the measure is expected
and for that reason some at least
OF the republican leaders are opposed
to calling it up until after the tariff
bill has been gotten out OF the way.
Before undertaking to present the
bill to the senate, Chairman Nc
Cumber made public both its text
and tie accompanying report from
the final committee The report es-
timated that the total cost Of the
legislation would be S3,845,65o,48l
spread over period of 43 years
from next January l. when the legis-
lation would become operative. This
total is $25OOOO, 600 less than the es-
innate under the house bill.

Increasing Working Material

NEW EVIDENCE of the increased activity of the
manufacturers of the United States comes 10
the surface in the latest reports of their importa.
tion OF manufacturing material OF the class for
which they rely upon foreign countries. Official re-
ports OF the value of the manufacturing material
imported In May of the current year show an in.
crease of 50 per cent in the value of the raw mater.
lal imported when compared with the same month
OF last year, and an increase of over 60 per cent in
the value of the manufactures for further use i'm
manufacturing.
This startling increase in the value of manufac.
turing material drawn from abroad in the latest
month for which figures are available is the more
interesting, when we consider that the prices of
many OF the articles so imported are now mater.
iaiy lower man a year ago, and that the advance
IN the total value of these materials imported really
means n large increase in quantities than the mere
figures of value would indicate. While the details
OF inc May importation are not yet available those
OF April, in which the increase was also large, are
at hand and show that the price at which many of
the manufacturing materials were imported was
less than that of a year ago. Manila hemp, for ex-
ample, imported in April, 1922, came at s134 per
ton against $3.50 in the same month of last yeari
sisal Sl09 per ton against $146; India rubber 17c
per pound against pic; pig iron $40 per ton against
so IN the same month OF last year; copper 121sc
per pound against 14c; ton 29c per pound against
osc; lear tobacco for cigar wrappers S203 per
pound against $217, and other tobacco 36c per
pound against $1O2 n year earlier; and ground wood
pulp $50 per ton against $40. In the textiles. how.
ever, cotton, wool, and silk, the 1922 prices are
higher than those of a year ago, and this is also
true of hides. 80
