Passports Not Honored

Holmes also charged that the fake
Ukranian passports have been used
to deport alien radicals to switzer-

Commissioner General W. w. Hus-

had been used since last October:

Compared With Standards

In every case the feed tried out
was compared with some standard
iced as similar in composition as pos
sible and one that might be replaced
by the new feed II found satisfactory.
The best results were obtained
with sweet potato meal. This proved
TO be almost as valuable as corn
meal.
Fishmeal, though not so palatable
as cottonseed meal. was found to
be worth in food value from 20 to
% per cent more pound for pound
| than prime cottonseed meal. Con-
trary to expectations, this meal had
no effect on the milk.
Peanut meal containing q per
cent crude protein, was found to pos
sess a value not exceeding "a per
cent Of prime cottoDseed meal.
Potato meal was found to be
worth net more than 7s per cent
as much as cornmeal.
Molasses Recommended
Velvet-bean meal was found to
have maximum value OF not more
than 65 per cent that Of cottonseed
meal.
Potato silage and corn silage were
found TO possess about the same
I feeding value.
Apple-pectin pulp compared with
dried. beet pulp was found to be less
palatable and less efficient as a feed
The practice that some farmers
have Of supplementing a ration with
cane molasses was found not to be
economical, provided the ration was
already suitable.
In cases where the food was OF
poor quality the use Of molasses Is
recommended, as II renders the feed
more palatable, and induces a great
er consumption of nutrients, a mat

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.-A Slen6-

blond hair reached back in a big
pompadour sat on the side Of the bed
at his hotel across the street from
the Post Office Department, smoking
a cigaret-

Bandit Was Crack Shot
Stack, a postal clerk at East Or

in a battle with a mail bandit, but
finally killed his man. The latter
was identified as John Manion. a
former trooper in the New Jersey

shots Of that organization.

shots and I fired five. His compan-
Ion ran, and then he turned and

Smiles at Bravery
With the bandits first shot, Stack
felt his right thumb go dead. An
other bullet furrowed across his
thigh. Two more cut holes in his
coat. Manion was shooting close.
When he ran I beat it down to
the baggage room and phoned for
the police" Stack continued. "At

Macmillan said that the BowdoA's

which he was able to send and re-
ceive messages to and from his fam
