MAY NOT PASS ANY
 TARIFF THIS TERM
Washington Doubts That Measure
 Will Be Settled

Washington, April lb,-The forth coming tariff bill fight in the senate promises to resolve itself into an en- duranee contest, with many thousands of rates and hundreds of amendments to be considered, those in charge of the measure estimate that at best it will take close to two months of steady work to put the bill through.
 Republican leaders are preparing for the struggle. A call went out to- day to majority senators for a party conference next Tuesday. Senator Curtis, of Kansas, the republican whip, said the principal purpose was to impress upon the senators the ne- cessity for their presence on the sen- ate floor throughout the considcra- ton of the measure.
 May Not Be Passed.
 Whether the tariff bill can be cn- acted at this session is regarded by many at the capitol as doubtful. Were l this any but election year they would anticipate little difficulty in holding congress in Washington to enact it., but many members, and more par ticuarly those of the house, desire to be back home during the campaign
 There is some talk now about re- cess of 60 days after the senate acts on the bill. The work on the meas ure in conference will require nearly if not all of two months, and those favoring the idea of a recess argue that no time would be lost through out that procedure as the conferences could be in action while congress was away.

in the country in normal times and
 10 have the railroads come into the
 market would distinctly help business, Business Groups
 When one takes a cross section of
 business today he divides all indus try into two main groups; - One group is engaged in manufacturine clothes, household furnishings and
 the various things that we buy this | month or next month just as we see
 iii, The industries engaged in mak ing these things have been quieting down the past few weeks The other group consists of those industries con
 nected with the permanent develop | ment of cities, railroads and public | utilities, there is more activity today In these industries which supply ma terials to these constructive forces
 than there has been. A man may
 mako more money in selling shirt
 waists to women than in selling bricks to men, but fundamentally the eoun-
 try is much better off in having labor
 used to make bricks to erect buildings or permanent value.
 Crop reports are just beginning to | come in so that we can judge some thing regarding the 1922 crop stua- 1 ton. From apparent figures so far the winter wheat yield for 1922 will be about the same as 1921, The last
 estimate is for 57S, ,Ooo, 900 bushels for 1922 as compared with 5S7,0O0,00 bushels for 1921. Kansas, which ,, looked very bad a few weeks ago,
 now looks much better. While the
 average for the state is only 6h per cent. some parts show an average of
 90 per cent
 "The exports of wheat and corn have been very satisfactory the past few waeks and the farmers have been
 greatly encouraged by the better prices of cereals; also by the loosen ing up of money and the decline in the interest rates. The farmers are
 also delighted with the new tariff bill. I The senate is likely to recommend q
 duty of 30 cents a bushel on wheat,
 IS cents bushel on rye, and 15 cents bushel on corn and oats. Whether
 or not these duties, if put into effect
 will do the. farmer any good in the
 end is debatable. but at the present time, they are putting courage into
 him and the entire central west feels
 much better than it did around the
 first of the year.
 Outlook Is Good
 Hence, as I review the situation l feel at heart very much better re-
 garding the business outlook because
 of the present willingness of men to
 put their money into bricks, new
 roads, the developing of water pow
 CTS, and the strengthening of the rail- roads, all of which lays the founda-
 tion for future period of prosper ity."
 General business meantime has
 slowed up a bit and is running at IA per cent. below normal as compared with 12 per cent a week ago.

BACK OF EUROPE'S
 FAMINE IS BROKEN
Such is Easter Message of Brown, Di- rector of American Relief Admin
 iStratiOn Activities,

London, April 15.-(By Associated Press, )-"A America has broken the back of the biggest famine in the worlds history" was the Easter mes sage sent today by Walter Lyman Brown, European director of the American relief administration, as a result of dispatches just received in London from the famine districts of Russia.
 We have not reached the end of our troubles,' said Mir. Brown but we have successfully initiated a pro- gram for feeding four times as many people as the American army had in France at the zenith.'
 While the feeding of 5,o0o,0o0 Rus sian adult famine sufferers is being initiated, the number of children be- ing fed has reached 2,O00,000, Mir. Browns figures show, and is con- stantly increasing, The child feed ing goal aimed at is 3,00O,000 exclusive of the Ukraine, where a new pro- gram is contemplated.
 There is no parallel in history for the task America has undertaken in the valley of the Volga, according to MT. Brown.

8 ARE ARRESTED FOR
WENTWORTH ROBBERY
Carthage Officers Suspicious Are
| Aroused By Surplus of Clothes
And Pennies.

Carthage, Mo-, Jan. 26.-Three
young men, giving their names as
! Willis Lancaster, Paul James anC
Lowrence Dodd, of Illinois, Kansas
City and Billings, Mo-, respectively
were arrested about 1 o'clock this
morning by Deputy Constable Albert
Duncan, and charged with burglariz-
ing the Hines Mercantile Company
store at Wentworth Tuesday night.
Following their arrest the trio made
a written confession of the robbery,
according to officers.
The fact that the men were "bund-
led up in too many new clothes and
paid for their lunch at local restaur-
ant with pennies" caused their arrest
according to Duncan. The officer
first saw two of the men in the Fris-
co railroad yards. His suspicious
were aroused by the manner in which
they bundled up. He shadowed them
for a time and when they started
south up Meridian street he followed.
The pair went to a restaurant on
North Main street.
When Duncan entered the restaur-
ant the two men were eating sand
wiches but soon got up from the
counter, laying down pile of pennies
to pay for their food. This act decided
the officer and he placed both under
arrest. When he went to the Frisco
depot with the two men to get their
overcoats they had left there, the
officer picked up their companion and
placed all three of them in Jail.
Much of the loot taken from the
Wentworth store, other than that
which they were wearing, was re-
covered by officers this morning from
where it had been hidden under the
concrete bridge at the crossing Of the
Frisco tracks and East Central ave-
nue.. The list of the articles recovered
includes three mackinaws, one leath-
Ell vest, two raincoats, six suits of
underwear, five shirts, half dozen
caps, three pairs shoes, three pairs
pants, three cartons of cigarettes,
three pair overalls, quantity of
smoking tobacco and thirty-seven
pennies. The trio was turned over to
deputy sheriff from Wentworth.
Constable Ed Hansford and his
deputy were paid $25 reward for re-
covery of the goods.

WHY SET APPLE TREES NOW?

Because there are over so per cent
less apple trees now than there were
in 1910, according to the Washington
Bureau of reports. There are also
over so per cent less peach trees than
in 1910. What will be the result :?
There is going to be a scarcity of
fruit in a few years, therefore now is
fine time to get into the game. We
have the bigges, and incest block of
TWO YEAR old trees we have ever
grown, including Black Ben, Ben
Davis, Gano, Staymens Winesap,

HOLD-UP MAN CAUGHT
BY OFFICERS
Tive Bandits Hold Up Kenneth Ogden
One Man Captured, other Escapes
After Brisk Gun Fight.

Kenneth ogden of Monett, was
held up by two masked and armed
men about 1880 o'clock Thursday
night at the corner of Central avenue
and County street near A. A. Adams
store. The young man was relieved
of his overcoat, watch, $1.00 in cash
and DeMolay pin.
Police officers were notified from
the store. They Immediately secured
a description of the bandits and drove
to the freight yards. The men were
apprehended near the old Jeffries
store building on South Central
avenue by officers ]. A. Johnson and
J. l.. Bland, of the city police force,
and Frisco Special Officer Plumlee.
One man stopped on demand of the
officers and was placed under arrest.
The other fellow ran west on Main
street shooting as he went. Mr..
Plumlee was close behind him and the
two exchanged six shots. One bullet
penetrated the corner of Plumlee's
overcoat. The escaping bandit also
exchanged shots with ]. A. Johnson.
He dropped the overcoat near Mrs.
Woolsey's residence and ran across
the tracks into Wimsatt's pasture and
escaped. Officers Plumlee and L. E.
Barclay trailed the wounded man to
the Wightman Switch, east of town
and back to town again and there
lost the trail.
The man arrested gave his name as
G. w. Mathis, of Fayetteville, Ark.
He had on his person loaded revol-
yer. Mathis acknowledged his guilt.
City Marshal r. A. Gardner placed
him in the barred room on the second
floor of the city hall and placed a
guard in the room with him, the new
city, jail not yet being completed. He
was taken to the county Jail at Cass-
vile Friday morning.
Mathis told the officers that the
man who was with him was Bill Reno
of Fayetteville, Ark, and that Reno
was just out of the state penitentiary
at Little Rock, Ark. He said that he
had known Reno before and that they
had started out on hold up expedi-
ton. Blood was found on the over
coat abandoned by Reno and it is
thought that one of the bullets must
have struck him.
