Branding as a myth the idea that
governmental stimulation OF the Am

the price of sugar. the speaker as
serted that In reality sugar Is always
lowest In price at the time the do
nestle crop is going on the market
In competition with the imports from
Cuba.
"A week after Ohio and Michigan
sugar factories began 20 grind beets
last fall. they offered sugar as far
east as Buffalo AT 80 cents a 100
pounds less than the price quoted
on the New York stock exchange.
But the sugar grown in America was
practically all sold and consumed
by the middle of February aud then
the price advanced because the en-
tire supply was In the hands OF the
sugar trust-the seven refineries in
New York City which control the
Cuban sugar imports.

man periiously near the edge Of the
platform and swaying dizzily. She
seemed to be trying TO move back. but
was unable to take any steps. AT this
moment. as the train came rushing
towards the station. the young woman
lost complete control Of her strength,
and would have lunged forward TO the
tracks, had not the scout jumped TO
her side. and grabbed her. The weight
Of the falling woman, however. pulled
the pair over the platform. They fell
TO the side of the track. and landed
against the end Of the FIRST car. To
save the girl and himself from being
caught In the wheels or dragged, the
boy reached for the lattice al the end
Of the hrst car. His clothes were
caught In the coupling and torn. He
himself was dragged short distance.
but he managed TO keep the girl from
slipping to the tracks.
When the train came TO stand
still. the scout steadied himself and
started to lift the woman TO safety.
Willing hands lent aid In bringing the
fainting victim into the car. The boy
aided in helping revive the patient.

applying his first aid training, stopped
the bleeding.
At Fourteenth street the girl got
on the train TO meet an acquaintance
who was awaiting her there. The boy
went on his way quietly. without even
disclosing his name.
The next day the girls father wrote
q special letter Of appreciation 10 the
National Boy Scout office. and enclosed
the scouts registration card. which
had dropped from his pocket In the
strenuous rescue, and. when picked up

knocked down by an automobile

X-ray examination.
The blow broke the right pelvic

NIGHT SESSIONS IN
SENATE To HURRY
LEGISLATIVE WORK

WASHINGTON, May 5.-Farm re-
lief legislation is to be given right
of way in the senate after the tax
and remaining appropriation bills
are out or the way, under d decision
reached today at d conference of SEN
ate Republicans.
In order to speed up the program
with a view to adjournment before
the Republican national convention
at Cleveland, it was decided to hold
night sessions beginning tomorrow.
The Mellon income tax rates came
in for only general discussion, and
there was no effort to put the con-
ference on record with respect to
them. 1t was indicated that the
party leaders would endeayor to force
u vote first on the Mellon schedule,
and should the senate reject it, anOth-
er conference probably will be called
to discuss a compromise.
The conference did not declare for
any particular farm relief plan, the
resolution adopted providing merely
that such legislation should have
right of way later on. Friends of the
McNary- Haugen relief bill are pre-
pairing to press that measure, but
there is sharp division in the senate
as to just what form farm legislation
should take
The present expectation is that the
tax bill can be disposed of by the
end of this week or early next week.
Five appropriation bills are yet to
be passed by the senate. but most of
the more important ones have been
