FOREIGN MARKET SHRINKAGE.
Affects Farmers Credit More Than
Anything Else.

Chicago, Dec. ll.-Shrinkage of
foreign markets affects the farmers
credit more than anything else, and
there is nothing Of greater moment
than creation of international rela-
tions that be precedent to the re-es-
tablishment of those markets, said
Bernard NJ. Baruch of New York in
an address to-day before the American
Farm Bureau federation.
Surplus finally determines the
price of products" he said. "You farm
ers are the real exporters. If you can
not sell your surplus abroad YOU must
take lower price for that portion
of the produce consumed here.
"The basis for increased marketing
credits should be the placing OF the
products in a warehouse, where a neu-
trail authority would register the grade
and amount and issue the farmer a
certificate which could be taken to
bank or new finance corporation
which should be created to lend TO the
farmer upon his note secured by the
certificate.
"The new institution. Independent
of the present banking system,
would place the farmers not in
the treasury and issue its own obliga-
tons, which would be discountable in
the federal reserve system"

BENNINGTON TICTIM
or SHOOTING DEAD
Ernest w. White Died Sunday and John
FITZGERALD, Man Who Shot Him,
Laughed When Informed.

Remington, Dec. ll.- Ernest w
White, who was shot in the abdomen
Friday, by John Fitzgerald, whose neck
/ he had rubbed with snow, died Sunday
morning at the Putnam Memorial hos
Ipital. Fitzgerald in the local jail
laughed when told his victim had died,
White is said to have made no state
nent before his death, but there is
said, contrary to first reports, TO have
been some trouble between the men.
Fitzgerald is also said to have been the
butt Of many jokes at the Z q mill,
where both men were employed.
A special grand jury will be called
to consider the case. County court is
now In session and the chances are
that the trial of Fitzgerald will be held
at this term.
An inquest was held here Saturday
before Municipal Judge William NJ.
Meagher.
An astonishing feature Of the shoot
ing is the deIiberation with which 1t
was undertaken by Fitzgerald. He went
home from the mill at noon as usual,
After eating his dinner he took the
rife which belonged to his brother and
started back toward the mill.
Whether the rife was loaded or
whether Fitzgerald filled the Magazine
with cartridges before leaving the
house il not known. He stopped at the
Davenport bakery on Gage street,
placed the gun in corner and bought
q pa : age Of cigars and small bag of
candy. Even when he arrived at the
door OF the cutting room at the mill
no one observed anything peculiar in
his actions. When he shouted to Rob-
ert White, cutter, working on the
same bench with the victim Of the
shooting, to get out OF the way, other
employees in the room at once jumped
to the conclusion that Fitzgerald was
perpetrating o joke.
