cost of a common necessity of the
American household. The Depart
ment of Commerce shares the blame
because of a bulletin which it issued
at the height of the manipulation
and speculation in the sugar market
predicting a shortage. This gave
the gamblers the chance they want
ed, and they made the most of it.
AS matter of fact there will be
no shortage of sugar in this country
in 1928.

THE. ANlERlCAN PRESS ASSOCiATION
FARMERS PAYING MORE TAXES
AFTER CROP VALUE LOSS
OF $9,47S,OOO,OOO IN
THREE WEARS
THREE YEARS.

Farmers are now paying more in
taxes and getting less for their
products than ever before in the his
tory of the United States, it is indi-
Gated in figures recently compiled
by the Department of Agriculture
Heavy taxation, low prices for agri-
cultural commodities, and high rates
of interest on loans are the comb.
nation that is bankrupting American
farmers.
Taxes on agricultural. lands have
more than doubled in most of the
States since 1914. The average
amount of State, county and local
taxes paid by farmers has grown
from 31.4 to 70.9 cents per acre in
the last eight years. In some in
stances the increase has been as
much as 100 per cent.
Farmers in New Jersey were pay
ing taxes amounting to an average
of $2.22 cents an acre in 1922, COM
pared with SO cents an acre in 1914.
This rate of 1922 was the highest
average in the country. In Iowa,
the banner State in point of agricul-
tural wealth, the average taxes were
$1.49 in 1922, compared with 6S
cents in. 1914.
The average tax per acre in 1922
compared with 1914 in certain other
States in different parts of the
country was as follows:
Maine, 35 cents in 1914, so cents
in 1922; Connecticut, SO and SO
cents; New York, SO cents and
SLIP; Maryland, SO and IS cents;
Arkansas, 1S and Sc cents; Texas
II and 35 cents.
The value Of farm crops in 1922
was $14,31O,200,O00, compare
with $23,783,00O, 900 in 1919. This
decrease of $9,472,8O0,O 900 was
equivalent to a loss Of $26 on each
of the 65,000,000 acres of land in
this country. In addition to this
loss, which spelled bankruptcy fol
thousands of farmers and drove
many to suicide, they are now oblig
ed by the profiteers'- tariff to pay al
the way from 5 tos800 per cent more
for everything they consume thai
they paid a couple of years ago.

MAN CAN Be FRIENDS
WTHAN0THER'S WIFE
Georgia Court Rules Man Not
Liable To Hubby For Dam
ages In Case

ATLANTA, Sept. 28-The Geor-
gla court of appeals has ruled that
man may maintain friendly rela-
TONS with the wife of another man
and enjoy her company and society
on various occasions, without be
coming liable to the husband for
damages unless there is a poven
effort to interfere with the martial
relations of the husband and the
wife.
although such acts may be dis
tasteful to the husband and con-
trary to the edicts of society re-
specting conduct where married
woman is concerned, they are in
sufficient to establish any viola.
ton of the purely legal rights of
OF the husband" the opinion says.
The decision upholding the ac-
ton of Judge Bell Bell in the De.
catur superior court, in non-suiting
an action for damages filed by M.
l.. Martin against L. Ball, alleging
alienation of affections. Judge
Bell, who is now member of the
court of appeals, was disqualified
by reason of the fact he was the
trial Judge.
Where only the evidence is that
the man and woman were seen with
each other on various occasions
when the husband was not present
once at dance and several times
IN an automobile in the company
OF another woman talking together
near the defendants place of bust
ness; in a public park, where they
met and drove off together, and
the fact that the wife went to an
automobile establishment and took
out the car of the defendant for
her own use, claim for damages
is not set up" the court of appeals
rules.

Reconsideration of the recent wage

of Secretary of the Navy DENLY in
a letter from Lodge ia, International

the letter states, rs not recon- :
board, but is simply tahulated form
of their findings as submitted for
the information of the assistant sec

OF the department.
The result is absolutely ridiculous

The published report of the de-

men justly nor in accordance with
the law and has given increases in
only such localities where building
