! The annual nitrate bill of the country
has now come to be about S10O. .00O.-

for the artificial manufacture of nj
trates on large scale-and it is this
that constitutes the supreme import

high powered electrical current for

BUSCH FLAYs STAND
Of SHIPPING BOARD
ON LIQUOR QUESTION
GRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE state
'ment that A. d. Lasker, chairman of
the United States shipping board
misunderstood and therefore assailed
the motive of Adolphus Busch Ill and
his father August A. Busch, president
of the Anheuser Busch Inc. in writ
ing TO President Harding regarding
the sale of liquor aboard the steam
ship George Washington, a shipping
board vessel, and the violation Of the
prohibition act. is embodied in a sec
ond letterof Adolphus Busch III given
to The Associated Press tonight in
reply to the letter of Chairman Las
ker. given out in Washington today.
The letter, dated today. from this
city, says:
Il have read in today's st. Louis
papers what purports to be letter
from you addressed to me from
Washington. D. c.. under date Of
yesterday. the 18th inst. / have no
doubt the letter will reach me in due
course, and l am taking it for granted
the newspapers have correctly printed
the letter. 1t refers to my letter of
the 18th inst, addressed to the presi-
dent complaining of violation of the
Nolstead law by the United States
Shipping Board, a department of the
United States government.
''Inasmuch as you again resort to
the argument that our passenger
ships cannot get business unless they
do the thing which we charge is be-
ing unlawfully done. ] am bound to
consider that You admit the truth OF
the charge.
On our behalf, / admit the cor
rectness of your charge that we are
selfish in that we seek to again have
the lawful right to manufacture beer
If this is selfishness let it go at that.
We, in that respect at least have the
shipping board as an example. The
shipping board desires to maintain
the value as going business, of the
governments investment in merchant
ships; while we are selfish in hoping
that our investment of many millions
may be saved through a restoration of
the lawful right to make wholesome
beer.
You have misunderstood, and
therefore assailed our motive in
writing the president on the Sth inst.

PRESIDENT HARDING
EULOC|zES AUTHOR
Of NATIONAL SONG
TRepubIican A. p. Lea sed WireJ

BALTIMORE, June 14.-President
Harding in dedicating the memorial
here to Francis Scott Key today
spoke as follows:
My fellow Americans: The shrines
OF American patriotism not only re-
fleet the quality of it's gratitude but
they are ever refreshing and inspir
ing. We are assembled today to re-
dedicate one of the sacred shrines.
We are met to commemorate a his
toric victory in arms, when the
young republic was first asserting
its rights against an armed foe. And
we are met to commemorate a very
unique achievement in the literature
OF national inspiration. Here the
patriotic sons of the early republic
crushed one of the most ambitious
invasions ever aimed against our
nation. Here during the rage of
combat was born the swelling of
American patriotism.
1T is wholly fitting that flag day
should be chosen for this commem-
Grafton and rededication because our
hymn of patriotism is an apostrophe
to the flag we love. Yea, it is an
apostrophe born of patriotic and
poetic soul in the travail of sub
timely heroic night.
Someone has said in substance:
Let me write the songs of people
and l care not who makes their
laws. That quotation presents one
of the living truths in every land
under every sky, about the appeal
of poetry and song to the finer SEN
timents Of the human heart. The
truth is completely demonstrated in
the appeal which the Star Spangled
Banner made to the American people
from the day it came from the poets
heart and pen. l think it fair to
say that we have come here today
not SO much to pay tribute to the
genius which caught the inspiration
of vital moment and then wrote
that inspiration into one of the songs
of the ages, but rather more TO
memoriZe the patriotic service of the
author on his everlasting contribu-
tion of the soul, uplift and exalta-
ton of his countrymen who live
after him.
Not Great Poet
Francis Scott Key, though he
produced some splendid lines which
are less familiar than they deserve,
was not great poet. He was less,
but he also was more than great
poet. He was possessor of pa
triotism which in a supreme moment
could make words and music work
as servitors; and so a modest
genius was raised in one flaming
hour to place among the immortals.
That the song became instantly
popular and that when set to music

HALT To XII
.KLUX PROBE
WAS CALLED
BY j. s. JUDGE
Postponing Of Investiga-
ton By Federal Grand
Jury To July Is Ordered
By Judge w. H. Sawtelle

1t was Judge William Fl. Sawtelle
of the United States district court,
district of Arizona, who called a halt
in the federal grand jury investiga-
tion of Ku KluX klan activities
Tuesday afternoon, it was learned in
semi official circles yesterday.
The grand jurors, reconvening
Monday morning at the direction of
the United States district attorney.
undertook a sweeping investigation
of the gowned and hooded organiza-
tion and at it's direction. subpoenaes
for more than 80 witnesses were is
sued.
More than a score OF these wit
nesses had been heard by the grand
jurors when Judge Sawtelle ordered
halt, it became known yesterday.
1t was at first supposed that the
recess had been taken to allow Fran
els d. Cradle, assistant United
States district attorney who was di-
recting the probe. to gather addi-
tional information and evidence be-
fore proceeding.
There had been no intent to recess
the grand jury Tuesday until Mr..
Cradle was so directed by Judge
Sawtelle, now holding court at Tue
son, it became known last evening.
To the contrary, the grand jurors
had laid plans for a thorough inves-
tigation of the khan organization, ii
was stated.
Scope Not Limited
Scope of a federal grand jury probe
would not be limited to the county
or state and the jurors would not
find themselves handicapped by the
process of law regulating extradition
such as county grand juries viii en-
counter in their Investigations, court
attaches pointed out.
In this connection. it was said that
the arm of the federal statute could
reach out TO any section of the coun
try to bring witnesses or documen-
tary evidence before the grand
jurors, should such procedure be
demeed necessary to enlighten the
jurors.
1t is believed that this is the first
federal grand jury probe Of the kiaE
in the United States.

was dedicated by President Harding
today on the site of Fort McHenry.
where in 1S41 hung the flag to which
the anthem was written during an
attack by a British fleet. Referring
to the insuiring words and their pray

when liberty is imperilled, the Presi-
dent declared that to give ringing
voice to such an insuiration'' was one
OF the greatest services which any
man could do for the young republic.
Lowering skies and occasional rain
greeted the presidential party as it ar
rived by automobile from Washington
but did not dampen the enthusiasm
of the greeting by the people who
llned the route of the pageant pro-
cesslon which proceeded the unveil-
ing and in which the President rode.
Thousands of massed and uniformed
school children sang and waved flags
in tumultuous greeting.
The dedication was the center of

Weather Bureau
Reports Better
Crop Conditions

WASHINGTON, June 14.-Fayor-
able condition for the growth of
crops during the weeks ending yes
terday was reported today by the
weather bureau in it's weekly weather
and crop review.
Warm weather with light to mod
crate rainfall caused winter wheat
to ripen rapidly in all the principal
producing states and the review said
that some reports of premature rip
enlng had come from Kansas. Rain
fall in the Northwestern states. with
the exception of the central portion
OF Washington, proved beneficial.
The drought that had hindered the
growth of spring wheat in the Da-
kotas was broken, the review said,
and the crop generally was favor
ably affected, especially in Montana
Oats were reported as heading
short in illinois. in poor condition in
West Central and Northeastern Iowa
and affected by dry weather in many.
parts of Nebraska.
Warm weather prevailed in most
of the corn growing states, except
Texas, during the week the review
said. More moisture is needed in
West Central and Northwestern
Iowa, and parts of Indiana.
