 Guns Tuesday
By FERDINAND JAIN Gcased Wire to The Age-Herald.)

BERLIN. Oct. s1,-New disorders broke out Tuesday as Chancellor stresemann struggled with the so- cialisto threat to quit the cabinet.
 Armed communist bands surround ed and disarmed members of mine throwers' regiment near Ludwigs- burg, in Wu-tenburg, while civilians armed with machine guns attacked the guards at the Ludwigsburg pow der magazine. This menacing devel- opment is on | front hitherto quiet
 Further communist disorders oc- cured at Schwerin, in Mecklenburg- Schwerin. where communists bombed the army barracks as troops were leaving the city. None of the troops were injured. but hundreds of win dows in the vicinity were shattered.

 Faces Cabinet Split.
 Meaiwhile Stresemann faced a grave cabinet split In Berlin. Fol lowing their ultimatum, that the chan cellor must apologize for sharpness In ousting the Saxon cabinet, socialist members of the Reichstag have sum- moned meeting for Wednesday to decide whether or not they will all low members of their party to remain In the csabinet.
 The chancellor has offered the am biguous explanation that his orders regarding SaXony had not been full filled, and that the deposition of the Saxon cabinet had been premature. Signs increase that his cabinet is in danger.
 Despite prohibition by General Won Mueller, federal military commander In Saxony, Q general strike began in Dresden Tuesday, and spread to smaller cities.

 Feared Move in Bavaria.
 It is learned reliably that the gov ernment's hasty course in Saxony re- suited from the news that Bavaria intended to establish a new govern ment
 Berlin hoped that energetic action against the reds would possibly pro- pitiate the southern group. There are no signs, however, that Bavaria has changed it's attitude.
 No movement of the Bavarian fas- clsti and storm troops posted along the Thuringian frontier was reported Tuesday The forces are still in po- sition, but have not advanced. It Is considered possible that Bavaria may be awaiting the outcome of the pres ent cabinet crisis before acticn, but the presence of the troops causes in- creasing alarm here.

BYRNE SEEKS TO RUSH FORD OFFER
(Continued Fron pnre One


 not necessarily mean the defeat of the Ford proposition. If Congress should vote to accept the Ford bid, the government could be compelled to build another auxiliary steam plant in the Alabama coal fields; or Congress could condemn the property of the Alabama Power company for the public good.
 Sees Chance Of Success.
 T do not say that Congress would go that far, although it could. I do contend. however, that there is a chance that we will succeed in turn ing Muscle Shoals over to Ford against the wishes of the Secretary of War or the administrations. The country is apparently thoroughly aroused in behalf of the Ford offer. It is widely known that acceptance of that offer would be of great bene- fit to the south, and the country at large, and of incalculable value to the distressed farmers"
 MT. Byrns declared that complete action on Muscle Shoals would not preclude a subsequent investigation into the sale of Gorgas by Secretary Weeks. It was his position that an investigation before action would in- definitely postpone action, and that those advocating an investigation would be playing into the hands of the opponents of the Ford propo- sition

 DO you think I am using violent words?' he asked. If you do, go to Europe, go to Europe, to see condi- tions, the fear of some impending terror.
 And if the blow falls it will be such war as humanity has never conceived"
 The people of the United States and Great Britain, in acting together to insure order in the world, The as- serted, need enter into no formal agreement to that end.
 Not by alliances but by under standing" he said, mot by contracts, but by cooperation"

 Early in his address Mir. Lloyd George paid tribute to Charles M Schwab, who was seated on the plat form, for his war services and the two men shook hands and embraced
 
 T owe him an especial debt of gratitude and here I am speaking for millions of my own people" the war premier said. He was one of the Americans who from the start placed the whole of his great genius for or ganization at the service of the al- lies The first man out of our own land, the first man from the United States of America, who came to our help In providing munitions was Mr. Charles Schwab."
 MT. Lloyd George told how the kaiser had heard that MT. Schwab was supplying the deficiencies of the allies and made him an offer that would pay him three-fold in pecuni- ary benefits for throwing up the al- lied contract and he stood up by the allies."
 Speaking especially to the many Welshmen in the audience Mr. Lloyd George said that it filled him with pride to hear that everyone here in this country are good citizens Britain was sorry to lose them. he added, but was glad they meant much to their new country.

ELECTRIC POWER AGE

Using water power, coal and oil to
develop electricity is the industrial
line of progress of this age.
Twenty-Five billion kilowatt- hours
of electricity were consumed in the
in dustries of the United States III
1922, and more than sixty per ceflt
of the energy used by three hundred
thousand manufacturing plants was
supplied through this great flow of
power, according to recent survey
of industrial identification.
1t is estimated that the manu-
fact cies of the country are equipped
to use more thar 30,0O0,000 horse
power, as compared with only $4,000,
600 in 1902, while the installed rating
of industrial electric motors has in
creased from l, 100000 horse power
in 1902 to approximately 100000
in 1922. a growth of 1900 per cent
i'll two decades.
Of the three natural forces that
have been harnessed by mar, water
rover. steam power and electric
power. the last and youngest has al
ready caught and passed the others
in point of service and bulk of work
done.

WAGE INCREASE AND FARMING

Artificial ard abnormal wage in.
creases Stimulate increase of labor
saving machinery in business, in
dustries and on the farms.
George E. Roberts, in the National
City Bank bulletin says:
Gas between tbs farmers and
wage-earners, rise of wages with
out any corresponding rise in the
prices of farm products means that
to the extent that the wage-earners
consume each others products they
pay for the rise themselves, while
in the case of the farmer as normal
consumer, his purchases will be re-
duced and the falling off will affect
the industries unfavorably. The
same is true Of all classes except the
particular wage-earner whose wages
have been increased. Moreover, in
the lorg run if the compensation OF
the farmer remains below the level
of that in the other industries, there
will be shift of labor from the
farms to the industries until higher
prices for farms products or lower
compensation in the other industries
restores the equilibrium. Mean
while, however, general rise OF
wages, which has the effect of dim
inishing the compensation of the
farmer, can be neither justified in
morals nor made permanent. And
of course the same would be true OF
any arbitrary effort to force wages
below the normal level of compensa-
ton, cost of living considered"

COMMON SENSE VS. LEGISLATION

Radical farmers in North Dokota
and Minnesota have found by exper-
fence that legislation will not cor
rect economic or personal deficiencies
Growing wheat alone year after
wear means WORKOUT lards and
hard-up farmers, and no government
subsidy or guaranteed price will help
One man irl ten who goes into the
grocery business succeeds and grows
wealthy, and the average is about
the same with farmers.
Farming is the basic industry
and if W. could destroy every city,
the wealth production and necessi-
ties of the farms would build them up
again.
Bue if we destroy the farms, the
cities would fall into irretrievable
ruin. To guarantee wheat prices Is
to tax weaker industries than farm
irg.
The world excess of 300,000,000
bushels of wheat would be doubled by
a subsidy as a premium on increased
production and wheat would go
down as taxes went up.
The way out is not by more legis-
lation but more faith in our country.
more common, sense and more diver
eifed farming.

NEGRO SCIENTIST
LECTURES IN GEORGIA
PEANUT, POTATO AND PECAN
ARE MADE TO YIELD WON
DERFUL THINGS.

ATLANTA. Ga.-A new era OF
prosperity that will make the south
the richest section of the United
States is opening up before people
who see the new agriculture" DR..
George w. Carver, negro philosopher,
scientist and artist OF Tuskegee ,Insti-
tute, declared Tuesday afternoon on
the roof garden OF the Cecil hotel in
a lecture on the sweet potato and its
possibilities as food and commercial
product.
Behind him were displayed the re-
suits of % years OF scientific research:
coffee and rubber made from sweet
potatoes; milk and ink from pecans;
face powder and artists paints from
Georgia clay; hats and fine braid from
dried okra stalks, few of the. hun
dreds OF useful articles and food that
he has developed.
Products of High Grade.
These products and by-products are
equal in quality to any now in use,
according to DIR. Carver. When prop
erly manufactured and distributed
they will mean that the south will
be the richest section of the United
States.
"The majority of these products can
be manufactured on a comparative ba-
sis with similar articles we now have,
but it is necessary to create conSump-
ton before production" DR.. Carver
said "Production of the three big
'P's,' peanuts, potatoes and pecans, is
the new agriculture. Those crops will
make the south prosperous and when
factories are built for manufacturing
their by-products the large exodus to
the north will stop, because the peo-
pie will be able to find abundant work
in the south
Cost Little to Make.
DIR, Carver pointed out that manu-
facture of his products requires little
machinery, and that for every princi-
pal product of the sweet potato alone
there are dozens of by-products that
can be made to great advantage.
Dr. Carver has been working for
% years at the Tuskegee Institute,
and during this time has produced
800 valuable products from the sweet
potato, 10 from the peanM and 90
from the pecan, which are only few
of the possible products that may yet
be developed, he said.
DIR. Carver can sign IF. R. S" al
ter his name, which means that he
is fellow of the Royal Society OF
Great Britain, and he has two de-
grees from Iowa State college.
He is over 90 years old, of medium
height chin, slightly stopped and
wrinkled When he talks his voice ris-
es to a high pitch and falls alternately
With all his honorary degrees and
achievements he is humble and polite
to all who come in his presence.

ANOTHER SUGAR
SCARCITY PROMISED
WALL STREET SPECTATORS
SET STAGE FOR BIG GOUGE.
CONSUMER WILL PAY.

Another big sugar shortage" IS
seen following the enactment OF the
high sugar tariff, with sugar stocks in
Wall street becoming turbulent and
traders all talking sugar profits. But
the main profits" will come from the
consumers and will go to the specu-
lators who engineered the sugar COM
bine
The paper profits of these specula-
tors already is estimated at S50O,0O0,-
900, while each additional cent added
to the price of sugar promises them
about S90000,000 additional profits.
Raw sugar year ago was selling at
less than two cents pound, an alb
normally low price. Now, raw sugar
has jumped to more than five cents a
pound. Refined sugar, which few
months ago sold for seven cents a
pound, now brings ten cents.
Surplus, Not Shortage.
Ten cents pound on sugar to the
consumer means a three-cent advance
in the last few months, or a $40. 00O,-
900 gouge, of the consumer. All this
has been staged on the scare OF a
sugar shortage" The scare was rigg-
ed up on statements from the depart
ment OF commerce" 1t was reported
that Secretary of Eommerce Hoover
had made the statements.
According to the department OF
commerce there will not be a shortage
of sugar this year, but considerable
surplus. There will be less sugar pro-
duced than will be consumed, it is es-
timated, but a surplus of millions of
pounds was carried over from last
year
