MIMIC FORM SPRAYS

Alamo Plaza Pedestrians
Rush to Cover When
Water Main Breaks.

Pedestrians on Alamo Plaza in the
vicinity of the Grand Opera House
shortly before. noon Wednesday were
led TO believe that "old faithful"
seyser had suddenly been moved into
their midst. But 1t proved TO be only
a four-inch branch line to fire plug
which had become broken as a result
of vibration. In order to shut it off.
however. it was necessary TO close
the valce on large main thereby put
ting the water service to several large
buildings out of commission for an
hour or more.
The break was spectacular. En-
ployes of the water company. finding
a leak in the pavement, began re-
moving the concrete in order to, get
to the pipe. When they did so. the
water came up with rush, spout
ing about 30 feet in the air. Nearby
pedestrians quickly sought cover and
none were drenched.
Water company officials said that
it was not main which had broken.
but merely a branch leading from
the 20-inch main to fire plug. Heavy
pressure on a pipe which had been in
the ground for several years was Civ
Ell as the reason for the break.

appointment OF former Representative
c. Bascom Slemp of Virginia, as secre-

surprise inasmuch as his name has

the Virginia Republican state commit

COOLIDGE POLICY
ON PREPARATIONS
PLEASES BRITISH
Administration Will Re.
fespond to Any Reason
able Appeal for Aid.
BY the Associated Press.

London, Aug. 15.-The most wei
come reaction yet received in London
as q result of the British PREPARATIONS
note sent to France and Belgium Sat
urday is contained in press reports
that the Coolidge administration will
make a ready response to any appeal
TO America for assistance in settling
the prolonged reparations struggle.
This news. as reported here in the
press dispatches, is almost too good
for officials to believe.
The report contained no qualifica-
ton that the appeal to America must
be from the unified allies.
Judged from this apparent depart
ure from the original suggestions made
by Secretary of State Hughes, there
is seen a possibility of American par
ticipation in a commission of experts
which might be called together
through independent British action
after the Baldwin government be
comes convinced of the impossibility
of obtaining Franco-Belgian co-opera-
ton in estimating Germany's capacity
to paw.

BROOKHART SLAMS
E. T. MEREDITH FOR
1929 FARM PANIC
Agricultural Secretary Sat
in With Wall Street,
Senator Says.

Radcliffe, Iowa. Aug. 1o.--Charges
that +. 4. Meredith, while secretary
of agriculture in the Wilson cabinet,
saw plans laid for the deflation OF
agriculture and failed to warn the
farmers of the country, or TO prevent
the contraction of the value of their
products. were made by United States
Senator Smith w. Brookhart of Iowa,
in an address at Farm Bureau PIC
ME here today.
Instead of protesting or acting to
prevent the deflation, Genator Brook
hart declared, the secretary OF agri-
culture "sat in the Wall street game
and helped produce the greatest panic
in farm prices in the history of agri-
culture"
Mr.. Brookhart's address was in the
nature of reply to recent state
ment by Mr.. Meredith. in which the
latter expressed the opinion that the
senator is overestimating' the serious
ness of the reduction IN the price of
wheat and other farm products.
Mr.. Meredith is the same Meredith
wis was member of the Wilson cab
met when it was decided to debate
the American farmers dollar" Sell
ator Brookhart said.
1T was late in the fall of 1920
when this policy was made public.
but Mr.. Meredith knew about it from
the first and also during ~ the period
it was kept secret from everybody
but the Wall street crowd.
He also knew that, during the pc
Rod of secrec!'. the Wall streeters. the
packers and the big fellows generally,
except Henry Ford. were laying in an
ample supply of long time credit to
tide them over the deflation period.
Meredith also knew that the con.
traction of credit in the fall would
reduce the price of farm products.
As secretarytof agriculture. represent
ing the farmers of the United States,
it was his duty to prevent this credit
cont action. He performed no such
duty. Instead. he sat in the Wall
street game and helped produce the
greatest panic in the history Of ogri-
culture

DALLAS MAN DOES 1T
EX-cowpuncher Who Arranged Loan
Says It's Easy To Do.
BY JOSEPHINE VAN DE GRIT

By JOSEPHINE VAN DE GRIT
New York, Aug. f5.-Would you
like to borrow S20,000,000? Cogld
you?
Colonel Sloan Simpson. ex-cow.
puncher. and one-time Rough Rider
with Roosevelt. thinks it's easy. He
came here from Dallas, Texas, TO 10
il.
Banks aren't heartless,' he says,
All they want TO make sure OF is
that you are going to do something
productive with the money once
you get it,"
OF course Colonel Simpson didn't
want the S30.000.000 for himself.
What he. wanted it for was 10 tide
100000 cotton growers over nine
months of Waiting down in Texas.
They are the men who make up the
Texar Farm Bureau Cotton Associa-
ton, of which Colonel Simpson is
treasurer. While they're waiting for
the cotton to be marketed they need
a little something to put cake in the
bread box and buy shoes for the
youngsters.
This is his recipe for borrowing
money:
"Produce the four C's-character.
capacity, confidence and collateral.
It's a fact. collateral isn't nearly so
important as the other three. :"
But first of all. he says. you've
got To- have an idea worth money.
"Three years ago, explained
Colonel Simpson. "the Texas Farm
Bureau Association was merely an
idea that the cotton growers ought
to organize for a better marketing OF
their crops. 1t was good idea.
Therefore. although the association
is organized without capital. it can
borrow so vast sum as S20.OOO.o0O
with no more trouble than | had some
few years ago when l went about
raising 500 for my personal needs.
Colonel Simpson knows all about
borrowing money, for he's banker
himself.
