Reorganized Army Of Russia Now Is
 Formidable Force

Paris June 30 From an impo- tent, disorganized body, camouf1aged as formidable, the Red army has be- come a force genuinely to be dreaded, according to Paul Eric. writing from Moscow to the Journal. And the man who is responsible for the change, according to the French cor respondent, is Leon Trotsky.
 Formerly, M. Eric writes. the So- only a few thousand well trained men, which it trotted out on parade for propaganda purposes. Since Trotsky became Minister of War and Marine, in 1918. however, the Red army has been entirely reorganized. Czarist officers have been induced, som etimes by threat, sometimes by bribery, to train the men; other off, cers have been imported from Ger many. and arms and supplies have been assembled from all over the world.

SENATOR CAPPER ASKS
 SEC'Y. WEEKS RESIGNATION

It will be long time before Secre- tary of War Weeks and the admin istration hear the last of the Secre- tary's Cleveland. Ohio. speech. in which he said that the legislative branch of our National Government probably never has been at lower ebb than it is today and condemning the interference" of citizens in mat ters of legislation about their own affairs
 Senator Capper (Rep., Kans.), in his newspaper calls Secretary Weeks a "mossback" and an 'anachronisnl'' and suggests that the President call for his resignation. Among other things, Senator Capper says:
 If a member of the Presidents cabinet holds the views Secretary Weeks says he holds, whether private citizen (sic) or public official, he should resign immed ately. for he has shown himself so wholly out of sympathy with what he has sworn to maintain an official that he is in no frame of mind to uphold the gov ernment."
 And again:
 The recent progressive revival in the primaries has alarmed him and men Ike him who wish state and ma tional governments to be wholly dom- mated by powerful interests"
 Unconsciously, perhaps, Senator Capper was hitting as hard at Presi- dent Harding as he was at Secretary Weeks.

 Slang undoubtedly enriches the language" Prof. Cragie said. ''The ephemeral part disappears, but the vivid, expressive part remains in the language and adds a picturesque note.'
 Referring to the Oxford dictionary. which will be published soon after fifty years of collecting and compil- ing millions of notes, Prof. Craigie said: .

AVOIDING DISCOUNTS

During the recent controversy in
regard to discounts on Pacific coast
wheat, considerable space in The
Producer was devoted to the fact
that the grower often is penalized be-
Yond the actual loss in wheat quality
Examples were given, for in
stance, of the fact that heavy dis
counts were assessed against low
weight wheat while no premiums
were provided for grain weighing
over the No. minimum. As a re
suit, dealers buy low-weight wheat
at discount, heavy wheat at no pre-
MUM, blend the two and sell on
No ! basis with no discount
1t was also pointed out by The
Producer that the association cam
paien for better discounts was in the
interest of the non-organized grow
er, inasmuch as the marketing soci-
cites were able to take advantage Of
the blending and conditioning facilf-
ties which are at the disposal Of
dealers.
Here is a case in point: The
Northwest Wheat Growers Associa-
ton, through conditioning and
blending 100000 bushels. re-
ceiyed $4,000 more than would
have been brought by the same
wheat if it had not had this treat
