Washable paper.

Many possible uses suggest them
selves for special paper recently pro-
duced and patented by a japanese In
ventor. The paper is said to be rea-
sonably strong and can be crumpled up
and washed with soap and water So
durable is this paper that it can be
used as a covering for umbrellas and.
when soiled, can be easily cleansed at
home. AS wrapping paper, it could
be used over and over, being washed
when soiled 1t is said that the product
can be made at a reasonable price. 1t
has texture somewhat like cloth, and
is not to be confused with oiled paper.

WALLACE PLAN
WINS APPROVAL
Farm Aid Proposal Would Stab
iIize Prices and Take Up
Surplus Wheat.
SCHEME TO GO TO COOLIDGE
Would Create a New Bureau, U. S.
Buying Corporation for Export
and Insurance Against Loss,
Feature.

ashington.-Secretar of Agr1cui-
ture Wallace has formulated a pro-
gram to solve the troubles of the
wheat farmers of the United States.
1t is designed to stabilize prices and
take care of the surplus stock OF gram
on the American market.
1t was learned here that the secre-
tary is ready to put his plan before
the President, inasmuch as the experts
Of the Department of Agriculture have
reached the conclusion that the wal
lace scheme offers the best and most
feasible administration program.
Although details of the plan were
not available, the main essentials
of the scheme were revealed. The
proposal, which, Of course, is tenta-
tive until the President has acted on
it, provides for the creation OF a gov
eminent wheat export corporation,
which would operate with funds out OF
the treasury after congress had au-
thorized an appropriation. The secre-
tary's plan involves two main features
First, the creating of government
corporation to buy wheat for export
purposes and to find market for this
grain abroad
Second, the insuring of the govern
ment against losses on this venture
through the authorization by congress
of an excise tax at the elevators on
all wheat Of the following year.
Secretary Wallace and experts OF
the department who have considered
every angle Of the problem are said
to be in accord that the scheme would
meet the present troubles Of the wheat
farmers; that it would absorb the sur
plus, help to maintain prices without
interference with the domestic nar-
ket. 1t is the intention that the corpor-
alton should deal only in foreign sales.

MORAY TANGLE GROWS
From 100000 to $4,000, 900
Involved in Governors Deals.
Witnesses in First cf Civil Suits Tes-
tify That Signatures Were Put on
Instruments Without Their
Knowledge.

Kentland, Ind.-Amazing disclosures
in connection with the tangled finances
of Gov. Warren T. McCray of Indiana
were made here through testimony of
witnesses in the first Of series of
suits brought against the governor hy
group of eight banks.
So widespread have been Governor
McCray's borrowings that there are
said to be notes of his or his indorse-
ment in 2O7 banks in ffty-four counties
of Indiana and in Chicago, and run
into total of between $2,O00,000 and
$3,000,Ooo
In a court hearing four witnesses
testified that their names were signed
absolutely without their knowledge to
notes on which the governor collected
money from Indiana banks. One wit
ness was so specific as to declare the
'Hickory Island stock farm" was a
fiction, so far as he knew, although the
governor realized on note signed with
the witness name as manager" Of this
stock farm
The governor, farmer and stock rails
er by profession, has given the impress
sion that all his trouble is due prin-
cipally, if not solely, to the depression
in price of farm lands and products.
The great majority of Indiana residents
believe this story
But former Gov. James 2. Goodrich,
who raised a $35OOO0 rescue fund for
McCray, says over his own signature:
Charges have been made by men
thoroughly familiar with his affairs
and highly responsible in every way
that Governor McCray has been guilty
of actions involving the most serious
consequences"

Plans for Holding a Court OF

UnIawfuI-WaIton Appeals for
Mob Law Abolition.

Oklahoma City.-Plans for holding
a court of impeachment to review the
official conduct of elective state Off
GERS moved forward with apparently
nothing to impede their progress.
Ignoring for the time recommends
tions of Gov. J. G. Walton that his bill
opposing the Ku Klux Khan be imme-
diately considered, house members au-
thorized their speaker, w. d. McBee,
to name a committee of investigation
and impeachment to inquire into all
offenses charged against impeachable
state officials.
While the legislature was in SEES
sion martial law, in effect through the
state since Sept. 10, was lifted by
Governor Walton. The proclamation
returns full authority to all civil Off
GERS.
The sessions of both houses were
short. The officers agreed upon in
caucus were officially invested with
authority.
The. governors message, which was
brought to the house chamber, where
a joint session of the two houses was
held, was read by the clerk of the
senate.
1t assailed the Ku Klux Khan as an
'all powerful and most demoralizing
super government and urged mem
bers of the legislature to adopt bill
which the executive submitted stimuli
taneously to protect the people for
ever in their persons, property. and
fundamental liberties"
The executive did not appear before
the session and he was not represent
ed by any of his advisers.

before the French Revolution at

Though this tribunal was abolished in

Napoleon, in 1906. created councils Of
experts having similar functions.
