reopening. which should help condi-
tions in Utah. Montana and Arizona.
'Agriculturally the outlook for
crop planting is a little late. but
this is more than compensated for by
the prevailing moisture. There is a
feeling that agricultural prospects
have never been SO good in years
because of the moisture and, in Sec
tions where there has been a scare
ity of rain for the last two years, the
outlook is good, and farmers are
much encouraged"

much improved, but the smaller
banks are dependent upon the out
come of the years harvest. Farmers
will be able. he added, to produce the
cheapest crop in years. as there is
a satisfactory supply of labor in evil
dence, with increased efficiency.
The buying power of the farmers
Mr.. Meyer asserted, will be somewhat
restricted this year. as they are buy
ing only necessities.
Improvement in the corn belt, he
said, is reflected in the advertising
in newspapers and farm journals. In
the northwest cattle country, he said
he found evidences of increased buy.
ing. Mr.. Meyer said 1t was too early
to indicate cotton prospects for the
coming year. although the remainder
of last years crop is being moved in
an orderly manner. Some railroad
construction, he declared. is starting
up in the southwest for the first time
in five years. and moderate but dis

ASKED TO STOP
SHOWING OF PICTURES
FEATURING ARBUCKLE

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 14.-Will H.
Hays, director Of the National As
sociation Of Picture Producers and
Distributors, was called upon to
prevent exhibition Of motion pic
lures featuring Roscoe c. Fatty"
Arbuckle by the Lords Dal Alli-
ance of New York in letter made
public today.
Calling Arbuckle's acquittal of
charge of manslaughter and the
jury's statement in his behalf a
"whitewash." the letter to Mr..
Hays says:
I'VE appeal to you. We are not
informed as to the exact bounds of
your authority in the motion pic
ture industry. but heretofore you
have granted interviews and au-
thorized public statements con-
tanning sentiments which your fel-
low citizens interested in the moral
wellbeing of the nation have CRATE
fully welcomed.
THE request, therefore. which
we respectfully urge upon you Is
that You use your authority to in
tervene and prevent the outrage to
the moral sensibilities Of the citi-
zens of this country threatened in
the proposal to again exhibit any
Arbuckle films.
I'm case it should be that the ex-
ercise of such authority Is not
within the bounds of your power
as director of the motion picture
industry, we then urge that you
use your great personal influence
for the accomplishment of this
end"
At the Offices of Mr.. Hays today
1t was said he had gone to Sulii-
van, Ind, to spend Easter. and
would reply to the letter when he
returned next week.

WILL VOTE TODAY
ON SIZE Of NAVY
House to Decide on Amend
ment Providing &c. 900
Men.

The House by unanimous consent
agreed today to vote late this after
noon on an amendment to the naval
appropriation bill providing for an
enlisted force of $4,000 men. The vote
will come at the end of four hours Of
debate, which started shortly after
/ o'clock.
Running uppermost in the minds Of
House members, as they squared
away today for the first big fight over
the enlisted personnel section Of the
naval bill, was the thought that If
they cut it to $1,000 the Senate would
increase it.
Some had advocated a split between
the committee figures and the Nc
Arthur amendment calling for $1,000
which had the Endorsement of Presi-
dent Harding, but as 1t had narrowed
down to a straight test between big
and little" navy men. neither side
seemed willing to consider a compro-
mise.
should the committee proposal be
adopted, as Chairman Kelley claimed,
th ere would be no chance of a recorded
vote in the House proper. But should
the amendment providing for $4,000
win, as its hackers claimed, Chairman
Kelley said he would demand a record
vote next week in the House. in the
hope Of overturning 1t.

DISTRICT AGENTS
Join WAR ON RATS
Fire Chief Warns of Danger
of Rodents Starting
Conflagration.

Three groups of District agents
who come daily in contact with the
public were enrolled today for serv-
ice in the Commissioner war on rats.
These agencies are: The inspection
force of Fire Marshal Seib, the corps
of food inspectors. headed by DR.. r.
r. Ashworth. and the sanitary inspec-
tion force. led by Chief Inspector
Charles r. Holman.
Records of the fire department show
that rats and mice are responsible
for many fires in Washington every
year. and Fire Chief George Watson
expressed the belief that his inspec-
tors engaged in fire prevention work
will play an important part in the
campaign against rats by calling to
the attention of merchants. apart
ment house owners and heads of Of
fee buildings, the danger Of rodents
starting conflagrations.
Most of the fires caused by rats re-
suit from matches left where they
can be gnawed. Chief Watson said
wires may not be inclosed in pipe,
there is even greater possibility of
rats starting fires.
The fire chief has in his office a
gruesome~ picture Of a huge rat that
was found electrocuted on the wires
in a building. He had gnawed at the
insulation until he reached the live
current and was instantly riveted-to
the wire. dead.
Might Start Blase.
In this particular instance the only
result was the death Of the rat, but
it might as easily have been the
starting of a disastrous blaze.
So, the Commissioners point out. 1t
behooves every business man and
householder to start after the rats
on his premises, not only as q health
measure, but as a means of prevent
ing fires that might destroy the
property.
Records in the fire marshaps office
show that since the beginning OF the
current fiscal year. July l. 1921. to
April 1, 1922, seventeen fires in
Washington have been traced di-
rectly to rats and mice. There, no
doubt, were others where the EVIL
dence was not sufficient to place the
blame on these four-legged pests. =
This is a marked Increase over the
record for the last fiscal year. when
only four fires were attributed to
rats. and there are several months OF
the present fiscal year to be counted.
Here is how the fires caused by
rats have been distributed over the
past six months: october, z; Novem-
Der, 4; December, 2; January, 3; Feb
ruary, S, and March, 1.
Instructed to Co-Operate.
Health Officer William c. Fowler
summoned DR.. Ashworth, chief food
inspector, and Mr.. Holman. head OF
the sanitary inspection service, to his
office this morning. and instructed
them to cooperate in the anti-rat
campaign.
ALI of these inspectors will, in
making their daily rounds. call the
rat campaign to the attention OF
storekeepers, lunchroom proprietors
managers of industrial establish
ments and owners of junk shops.
The inspectors will ask oeach pro-
prietor to regard it as a civic duty
to rid his premises of rats. The in
spectors will warn food dealers to
exercise great care II they use
poison to catch rats.
The health officer would prefer to
see traps used in such places.

to Chairman Davis. of the House con-
ferees. and others who have been at
tending the conferences. that the agree
ment between the two houses will not
be reported for another week at least.
Big stunbling Block.
The rewriting of the first paragraph
Of the bill which covers the fiscal re-
lations between the federal and District
governments is the biggest stumbling
block and Is holding up the report. 1t
lis learned that there are now three dis
1tinct propositions regarding the word
ing of this paragraph before the con-
fereeS.
One proposition was prepared by SEN
ator Jones. author Of the Senate amend
ment, which would entirely change the
fiscal relations; another one is by Rep
resentative Evans of Nebraska, a repub-
lican House conferee. and the third by
Representative johnson of Kentucky,
the democratic. House conferee.
1t is still possible that in the final
draft some disposition may be made Of
the accumulated surplus to the credit of
the District. Some of the conferees are
known to be determined that the entire
question regarding fiscal relations shall
be disposed Of once and for all at the
present sitting.
Joker Discovered.
A joker is said to have been discovered
in the Senate amendment. in that the
House bill wrote definite appropriation
into the first paragraph of its bill on
60-40 per cent basis, whereas in its
first paragraph the Senate does not
make an appropriation. and therefore IL
the Senate draft was accepted it would
draw any money out of the Treasury.
A similar joker appears in regard to
the Klingle Road Valley Park. the Piney
Branch Valley Park and the Patterson
tract. In regard to these the Senate
amendment provides for giving jurisdic-
tion over these tracts to the Chief of
engineers of the Army and appropriates
about a million dollars for carrying out
these purposes, but it does not make any
appropriation for the purchase of these
tracts It is argued that il the Senate
amendment was accepted the present
owners would still retain their prop
erty rights in these tracts.
