Ex-Kaiser AS Seen
In His Exiled State

Doom, Jan. 25.-DoOrn shows
signs of becoming the seat of ex-
lied ropalty.
Ex-oueeu Sophia of Greece,
widow of the late King Constan-
tire in search of substitute for
the beautiful palace of Tatoi neal
Athens, has turned to Doorn-the
home of her exiled brother, VIII
helm ii.
A few miles from the castle oc-
eupied by the ex-kaiser lies the
.astle Of Moosburgh, which the
kaiser himself has selected as a
home for his favorfte sister. This
castle is not quite as large as the
Doom castle, occupied by Wilhelm
but it is a proud old mansion ly-
ing in a beautiful park. Queen
Sophia visited tire castle during
her recent stay in Doorn and was
delighted with the place.
Al the time she expressed con-
Germ lest the climate of Holland
might be too damp for Constan-
tines health, but the ex-kaiser
told her that Holland had less tn
berculcsis than any other Euro
pear cour:ry. She Their decided
10 ccme 10 Doom. Fate inter
vened and the death of the former
king made the climate no longer
a factor as far as ne was con-
cerned ard the ex-kaiser's sister
is expected here soon after Con-
stantinc's funeral.
The owners Of the MoOsburg
castle so far deny they have sold
or leased the place to ex-Queen
Sophia but big renovations are
being made in the castle. install

TEN. new decorations and furnish
ings and decorations indicate that
the derl has been concluded rs the
owners are known to be in bad
financial circumstances. They
have long planned to leave Hol-
land for Germany where they can
live much cheaper.

1t is known that the Crown
Prince would very mach like to
quit the desObate miniature island
CT Wieringen for a more pleasant
dwelling in Doorn, but so far the
Dutch government has refused TO
give him permission to move.
On the other hand, the eX-kais-
er's daughter, the Duchess Vic
toria Luise Of Braunschweig, who
had little cottage near the Doom
castle, has given it up, obviously
because of her dislike fo.' her
new stepmother.

Aviators Talk To
Persons On Field

Dayton, o., Jan. 25-McCook
Field authorities claim to nave
perfected an instrument that
will enable aviators, while flying,
to talk to persons on the grounc.
The feat has been accomplished
by means of loud speaking in
strument located at the end cf
the fuselage of a Martin Bomber.
When tried out here a few
days ago, the plane was three
hundred feet in the air, but he
pilots voice was heard distinct
ly by persons on the ground.
McCook Field aero engineers
have been working for several
years to perfect an appliance OF
this kind. They expect to make
certain changes in the instrument
which will make it carry tire
voice with greater distinctnesi
from greater attitudes.

Russia Is Threatened
With Plague of LOcusts

Moscow, Jan. 25.-Alarming re-
ports are reaching the govern
ment here of the spread of To-
Gusts in the agricultural sections.
In ore province along tens OF
thousands of acres are threatened.
In the meantime, experiments
are under way with view of
rendering the locust harmless to
crops. Prof. Kolzor, famous
Russian biologist, has succeeded
lin transplanting whole heads of
locusts. A female locLse whose
head was exchanged for that of
"a male two weeks ago is still
living. 1t inherited some of the
male habits, at the same time,
however, keeping its purely fem
mime abilities.
The professor is now trying to
devise some way of utilizing his
experiments for the relief of the
farmer. So far, ne has been baf-
fled.

here in Mexico than in the United
States, where there are millions
more like him.
Another reason suggested was
that the Mexican, believing that
recognition would greatly bene-
fit economic conditions here, hates
Americans for Withholding such
recognition.
Because of lack of recognition
and extradition laws, many fugi-
tives from justice come TO this
country. Crooks Of all kinds from
the United States can be seen on
the streets of this city and they
all seem to have the opinion that
when they crossed the Rio Grande
river they were cleansed of all
their sins.
Then too there is in this coun-
try a large number of American
"booze hounds" who continually
habitate the bars, get intoXlcaV-
ed and create disturbances.
Other types are Flappers who
demand more freedom than they
can get in the United States
politicians who for money claim
they will secure recognition
mayors of cities and officials CT
commercial organizations who
tour Mexico at the Mexican gov
ernment's expense; radical labor
leaders; interventionists who ara

officers who know all about the
next revolution; those who pose
as confidential advisors to Presi'
dent Oregon; get-rich-quicks
peppy statesmen who kick because
the Mexican closes shop in the
afternoon and takes a siesta.
There are the better type OF
Americans in this city, of course
but Mexicans do not see or espe
cially hear so much of them.
In all, the fact remains, that W.

Bitter Fight Expected
When Question is
Brought Today
MAY BRING DEBATE
Effort TO Avert DenunciatiOn OF
Attorney General is Made by
Friends-Clean Bill of Health
Seems Assured.
Try Inifch Press.l

Washington, Jan. "a Ora
matte fight, marked with bitter
ness, is expected today when Re-
publican leaders ask the House
to give Attorney General Daugh-
orty ? clean bill OF heath on The
impeachment charges brought by
Representative Keller, Repub-
lican Of Minnesota.
Complete and formal eXonera-
ton Of Daugherty seems assur-
cd, but Republican leaders pre-
pared to combat arraignmenr OF
the Attorney by his foes who are
dissatisfied with the conduct of
the Impeachment proceedings.
An effort to avert the denncia-
ton of Daugherty was halted By
his friends who feared the move
favored by some headers would
make his vindicatioh less sweep
ing, it was learned.
Chairman Nolstcad believed by
ommitting that portion Of the
Judiciary Committees resolution
yindicating Daugherty of mis-
conduct in Office that would be
ground for impeachment, the re-
naming section discharging the
committee from further consid-
Grafton and tabling Keller's re-
solution could be adopted almost
without debate and save Daugh-
erty from further embarrassment
from his enemies in the House.
When the move became known
to Daugherty's friends they point
ed out that it would leave the
CHARGES still hanging over his
head. 1t was then decided TO pre-
sent the entire resolution find
inc the Attorney General guilt
less. as adopted by majority OF
the committee.
Following action on the resolr-
tion Volstead viii ask for che
adoption of the committees re-
bort ccnsuing Keller fo:' defying
a co aittea Summons after ac-
cusine it of trying to white
wash" Daugherty. Although the
committee held Keller could be
Imprisoned by the House until
the end of this Congress if he
did not comply with the sum
mons, 1t recommended no punish
ment.
Daugherty's accusscr will not
participate in the final fight over
the Impeachment charges or be
present when the House passes
censure upon him. He is in Flori-
da recovering from a nervous
breakdown rs a result Of his
efforts to press the impeachment
proceedings.
Representative Thomas, Demo-
crat, Of Kentucky, whose minority
report upheld Keller's contention
the impeachment charges should
be tried before a special COM
mittee and that he was within
his rights in refusing 10 testify
before the Judiciary committee,
is expected to lead the fight
against adoption Of the eXonerat-
ing resolution.
Thomas served notice on Re-
publican leaders he would de-
mand time to debate the resolu-
ton. Other foes Of Daugherty
have been quietly preparing for
the battle and have asked Thomas
to reserve time for them.

FARMER HIT HARDEST.
ECONOMISTS ADVISED
DispropOrtionate Increase In Land
Valuations Charged


CHICAGO, H., May IS. - Whenever
taxes are raised, the farmer always
Is sure to get it in the neck, John C.
Watson. statistician of the Illinois
Agricultural association, told leading
economists of the middle western
states, gathered here Friday in a
conference called by the American
Farm Bureau Federation in the hope
of solving some of the farmers prob
lens.
~ There has been a disproportionate
increase in average valuations of
land as compared with town and city
lots and the railroads, in most coun-
ties. Watson said.
Figures compiled after weeks Of
research by Watson showed that the
assessed values used in taxation in
1922 averaged about so per cent in
the, case of land used for agricultural
purposes, but in the case Of town lots
only 40 per cent, and for business
property less than 80 per cent.
Even the farm animals were taxed
more than so per cent of their value.
Watson said.
Economists from the leading
banks. colleges and agricultural or
CARNATIONS are present at the con-
ference. The plan as explained by
President o. Z. Bradfute. of the
American Farm Federation, who
called the conference, Is to select q
committee from the economists at
tending the parley, to act as clear
ing house for all economic problems
which the farmer now Is face to face
with, and those which he will have
to face in the future.
