MAY ASK FOR HIGH
TARIFF ON CORN

j. r. Howard, President of the
American Farm Bureau federation,
who has been attending a series
Of tariff conferences in Washing
ton, insists that no tariff shall be
passed which will discriminate
against farmers. He asserts that
the Farm Bureau will go even far
Their and ask for farm products
just as high a protective tariff as
the manufacturer of raw products
receives. He announces the Farm
Bureau tariff policy as follows:
1T is generally conceded that
the present administration is a
protective one, and that the new
tariff will be protective. This being
true, the American Farm Bureau
federation must see to it that ag-
ricuiture receives it's just recog-
milton. Many of our agricultural
commodities are produced in sur
plus and we must meet the world
markets. This is particularly true
of cotton, wheat corn and vege-
table oils. On such commodities
as these tariff is only helpful in
securing price sterilization.
Our largest and most impor-
tant crop is perhaps corn. We
always have produced surplus
of it. 1t is not infrequent, how
ever, for a cargo of corn to be
brought into our ports from Ar
gentine and used as leverage to
depress the market out of all pro-
portion to the volume of corn
brought in. Hence while we meet
the world market on corn, en- the
long swing tariff which would
prevent dumping would eliminate
to some extent temporary and I'M
economic market fluctuations. The
same is true of large number of
other products.
THE American farmers are per-
haps more interested in vegetable
oil than in any other one commo-
dity, because it is a products or
by-product of cotton, corn, live
stock and milk. The present tariff
bill carries tariff on cocoanut
and some other vegetable oils, but
it allows copra, which is dry CO.
coanut from which oil is pressed,
to come in free. The result would
be, of course, that any benefit
from tariff on cocoanut oil would
be violated.
Using this as an example we
have determined a policy by which
we will demand that if cocoanut
oil is protected then the products
from which ocoanut oil might be
extracted must also be protected.

things that bob their curly locks
and shave their necks, who cover
up the beautiful natural complex

with lot of whitewash and war
paint, who spend much time and
money in getting a permanent
wave, who shave their eyebrows
and redden their lips, who wear
their spirits half way up and the
rest OF their garment half way
down, who roll down their stock

polishes his fingernails and wears
a three-inch corset around his

SHOULD SHOW THEIR LOYALTY

Of all the mushy proclamations
we have ever seen in type, is the
appeal, in Egans Weekly, of the
so-called Egan defense committee
of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to
solicit funds from every man and
woman who believes in a better
and brighter day in South Dakota =
1t is further explained that the
funds so raised will be contributed
to the fund of many thousands of
dollars necessary to present Eean's
case to the supreme court. to the
end that Justice may be done and
the cause of the people NAV not
be destroyed; that George w. Egan
may not have his voice hushed IN
the cause Of those who believe III

portunity for Rapid City admirers

Stocks Drop Two to Five
Points at Announcement
on Exchange.

Announcement was made from the
rostrum of the New York Stock Ex-
change shortly after o'clock to-day
that Wassermann Brothers, members
Of the Exchange since March, 1914,
was unable to meet it's obligations.
Members of the firm. which had
its main office at No. AZ Broadway
and branch offices at No. 547 Fifth
Avenue and No. 24O Fourth Avenue,
were Jesse Wasscrmann, doog Nom
Der. Jesse A. Wassermann and
Arthur Stner.
Jesse Wassermann was at one time
one of the best known traders in Wall
Street and his market operations were
considered as second to none. During
recent years the firm has been in the
speculative spotlight but little, yet it's
resources were considered so large
that the announcement of the failure
was received with considerable aston
ishment
At the offices of the firm it was
announced that no statement would be
made as to the causes of the failure.
Questioners were referred to Griffiths,
Safarity & Content, attorneys, No. 12O
Broadway, who seemed equally reluc-
tant to make a statement.
Immediately following the an
nouncement Of the failure of the firm,
the Stock Market, which had been
displaying nervous and unsettled
tone throughout the morning, turned
decidedly weak, with many specula-
tive issues showing losses of from >
to more than 8 points.
Under the rules of the Stock EX-
change, members having contracts
with members whose failure is an
nounced must Immediately sell out
and such contracts. Much OF the
weakness this afternoon was cred led
to selling because OF the Wassermann
failure.
