FORD MAKES HEAVY RE.
DUCTION ON TRACTORS

Not withstanding the fact that
the Fordson Tractor has always been
the lowest priced tractor made
when power, efficiency and duri-
bilIty are considered.
Improved methods of manufactur-
ing are. largely responsible for this
sweeping reduction. The Ford
Motor Company owns its own iron
and coal mines, its own railroad and
delivers its raw materials to its
blast furnaces at the minimum cost.
Ford castings are poured directly
from these furnaces at the cost Of
which other factories buy the pig
iron and then transport it to their
foundrIes to be melted and run into
the moulds. Economic methods of
this kind enable Ford to furnish
the cheapest farm power IN the
world today SIT

cratic nomination for United States SEN
ator was speaking of his stand as to
union labor at Beaumont last night his
opponent, former Gov. James II. Fer
guson. was the center of riotous scenes
az Houston, about seventy-five miles
away.
The trouble began when Mr.. Ferguson
started to speak against the Ku Klux
Klan, OF which he is an avowed oppo-
nent. AS he started to speak part of his
audience began leaving amid catcalls
and jeers.. The audience was finally
quietd after many had left the building
and Mr.. Ferguson continued his speech.
The tumut ended with the former
Governor inviting a member of the
audience down TO the front, where he
said he would whip him in five min
utes In more ways than a country boy
can whip a tomcat." The invitation was
prompted by a remark flung at the
speaker by the man in the audience.

heckling. When Mr.. Woowine started
to tell of his activities involving tho

persons began hooting and catcalling.
A man arose near the front row and
called the District Attorney liar.
Several persons started toward him and
fight seemed imminent when City

the man with arrest. The police arrived

Kansas Governor
Urges Enactment
OF His Platform

Topeka, Kan. Dec. 22-In his mes
sage to the Kansas legislature which
convenes January 8, Governor elect
Jonathan M. Davis will, he asserts,
emphasize the main points of the
party platform on which he was
elected. Repeal of the Industrial
Court law is one Of the planks. 1t
was a democratic platform and the
legislature is overwhelmingly repub-
lican, the house Sc to 90: the senate.
SO to 2.
Other points are: Reduction Of
taxes; adjustment Of many useless
boards and commissions and CONSOLE
dation OF many others; abolition OF
the State Highway Commission:
place control of highway construc-
tion with boards of county commits
sioners; restore home rule" to
cities in regulation of it's public
utilities (powers now vested in the
state public utilities commission)
and passage Of an act creating q
board of Cancellation and mediation
with full power to investigate, ad
wise and recommend and give all
said facts. advice and recommended
tons to the public"
Announcement by the State Tax
Commission that it favors a state
income tax and will have bill in
troduced in the legislature, has
created much interest. Other impor-
tant measures in sight are:
List of child welfare laws prepared
by a commission appointed by the
state; revised edition Of the Statutes
of Kansas; establishment of state
grain warehouses; establishment Of
farm marketing bureau; codification
and revision of state school laws;
adoption of state highway system to

nanced by s60,OO0,000 bond issue de-
frayed by automobile license revenue;
Redistribution of property for tax

of state officials. The legislature is
obligated through adoption of the
soldier bonus amendment last cleo
ton, to vote $25,000,000 bonds to pay

Canada's Supply Of Anthracite
(BOston Transcript.)

NANoNSiI ~
Mr.. Conrad E. Spens, Federal fuel
administrator. notifies Canada that
there is no immediate prospect, il
there is any at all, of overcoming the
deficit existing on Canada's allotment.
The Canadians are told that they are
not entitled to special consideration
because they failed apparently to
make use Of substitutes for anthra-
cite as has been done to a consider
able extent in populous communities
in the United States. In other words.
It is pointed out that Canada should
have exhibited the same self-denial
as has been forced upon the people
on this side of the border.
The statement made by Mr.. spens
clarifies the situation with reference
to Canada's coal supply. 1t has BEEN
alleged that anthracite has been
moving freely across the border at
times when cities in the United
states were practically without any
hard coal. In particular. it has been
stated that there was much hard
coal in Windsor. Ont, while there
was great scarcity in Detroit, on
the American side of the river. Bills
have been presented in Congress for
the purpose of stopping this flow of
anthracite to Canada. Mr.. Spens now
explains that Canada was allotted
fifty percent of last years supply,
with the agreement that, because of
climatic conditions, the deliveries
should be made by the first Of Janu-
AIRY. Four-fifths of the allotment
had been forwarded by the first of
the present moth, and, for the reason
given. that is likely to be all that
Canada will get.
1t would seem from this explana-
ton that the movement of coal to
Canada is practically at end, and
that there will be no necessity for
congressional interference.
