Palmer tAmericanized'
Bosch Magnetic by
Sale to Kern

A. Mitchell Palmer's campaign
committee, when was a candidate
for President, issued a pamphlet
telling Of his "life and achieve
ments." Referring to his acts
as Alien Property Custodian,
the booklet said:
Under Mr.. Palmer's direction
the entire German industrial or
ganization in the United States
has been thoroughly American
lied"
One of the properties "Ameri-
canized" by Palmer was the
Bosch Magnetic Company. In the
last few days it has been dis
closed that Palmer sold this great
company to Martin E. Kern, of
Allentown, Pa.
1t il now charged that Kern
is a German subject, and his
photograph has been identified
by prominent men as that Of Ed
ward Kern, jr., an ex-conyict.
The State Department accuses
Kern OF having made false state
ments to obtain the passport on
which he sailed few weeks ago.
The Department of Justice is in
vestigating the case.

to be only a matter of days.
The contract was for 1900 Class
B motor trucks which were to cost
the Government Sl.743.750, and for
chassis To cost $4,000. Although
not a delivery was made, the con-
;ract was liquidated on May 20 OF
the following year, the company re-
ceiving $55.255.S0 in settlement.
The stuff taken over by the Gov

only $20,39S.9O.
The officers Of the company which
engineered this contract were A. T..

CROP PROSPECTS THE
BEST EVER SEEN HERE
Southwest Kansas and Adjoining Ok
lahoma Territory Shows Some
Fine Wheat Now

While it is little early to do any
predicting, it can be truthfully said
that at this time the prospects for
wheat could hardly be improved upon.
1t is true that some fields blew out
last fall while the weather was dry,
but those fields where the plants were
not blown out are the prettiest ever
seen here, and the acreage of wheat
that will make good with anything
like favorable conditions from now
on is considerable.
The past few months have been
ideal for wheat. The SHOWS and
rains have soaked the ground way
down deep and unless the weather
should turn hot and exceedingly dry
between now and harvest, Southwest
Kansas and adjoining counties in Ok
lahoma will again prove to the world
the fallacy uttered few years ago
that this was not wheat country.
For the past five or six years no
territory in the southwest has had
anything on Seward County as a
wheat producing territory and unless
some great calamity occurs mighty
soon, Seward county is. going to re-
peat.

JACKIE GIVES KIDDIES
TIPS ON KEEPING NEAT

Jackie Coogan is all boy. He lives
just like any other seven-year-old boy
does. He plays like all other kids.
He eats as much as any other kid.
But Jackie has found out that its
mighty nice to keep clean and he
has consented to write little arti-
Gle on Keeping Neat" and wants
all his little boy and girl friends to
read it.
Here's what Jackie says about the
clean subject:
Dear boys and girls:
Well, I've been asked to write you
about keeping clean. have a good
time and still don't get too dirty.
Here's how its done:
Every morning wash your teeth.
Wash the back ones as much as the
front ones because the back ones
can get to ache just like any others
and if you keep all of your teeth
clean, you will not have to visit that
terrible person called Mr.. Dentist.
Gee, how hate dentists.
Shine the back of your shoes just
as nice as the toes. When you walk
down the street people can see the
heels of the shoes just like the peo-
pie coming in front of you can see
the toes.
Comb your hair every morning.
1t feels nice when parted and combed
every night and hang up your clothes
back neat like.
Fold your trousers in the crease
on the hooks. 1t don't take any more
time and then your suit always looks
nice.
Study awful hard. l do. Like
to study because l know that the
more / learn the better off I'll be
when l grow up and be big man
like my daddy dear.
You don't have to be a sissy to do
these. things. I'm not.
Your friend always,
JACKIE COOGAN.

want to see all my little friends.
Don't fail me. I will please you in
