ELLSWORTH C. E. OWENS
of Supervisors Chairman Board of Supervisors
Evening star., 1924-09-11

dent has 1t in mind to make the pro-
sposed agricultural commission q clear
ing house for all ideas on the subject
Of agricultural relief. He is aware that
the board itself will not complete its
work until after election but he is
hopeful that something concrete may
be worked out before the next session
of Congress, so that whatever is deter
mined upon may soon be put into legis-
lative form. Mr.. Coolidge, 1t will be
recalled, did not come out for or against
the McNary-Haugen bill with the ex-
port corporation plan when 1t was up
for discussion in the last session Of
Congress.
He did give particular attention to
all the various proposals for farm
relief and seemed to think we'll OF
the suggestions contained both in the
Curtis-AswelI and the CappGr-Wil-
liams bills. These related to a scheme
for the coordination of cooperative
marketing organizations.
Mr.. Coolidge had a group Of experts
examine the McNary-Haugen bill and
he was in hopes that out of the
general discussion would come a bill
a while, on the surface, it appeared
as IL most of the farm organizations
were in favor of the McNary-Haugen
bill. The true nature of the support
given the measure was discounted in
the National Capital to some extent
because of the pressure extended
from various sections Of the country
upon the executive boards of the
farm organizations to swing into line
behind the bill though the farm
leaders here were not altogether GER
tain Of its value.
Hopes Plan VIII Develop.
What Mr.. Coolidge Is seeking is a
practicable plan for handling the ex-
port problem of the farmer and he
Evening star., 1924-09-11

thinks that the new commission which
Is to function at once will find some
scheme suitable to recommend to him
for presentation to Congress.
The President is fully conscious Of
the importance of agriculture as a
factor in the national campaign and
he is confident that the Republican
party will be intrusted with power
once more so that 1t can carry it's
plans with respect to agricultural
legislation. He thinks that the farm
ers who intended to vote for him be-
fore La Toilette entered the race will
continue their support Of the regular
Republican ticket and that those who
had not intended to vote for him in
the first place probably will be found
voting for La Toilette or for Davis as
they originally planned.
He processes to be no prophet as
to the outcome of the election in
mathematical terms but he doesn't
believe that the race Of 1924 is COM
parable to the race of 1912 when
there were three candidates in the
field because he does not think that
La Toilette has the hold upon the
popular imagination that Roosevelt
had and that La Follette'S vote will
come largely from the Democrats and
will not disturb the regular Repub-
lican vote. That is his conviction.

False-Charges Mate Failed in
Business and Home.

District Supreme Court. to dismiss a
suit for limited divorce brought
against him by his wife. Lillian M.

rides with some OF the chauneurs, he
charges. The home was not cared FOR

to work Sundays and holidays In put
ting it in order. Attorney Jean M
Boardman appears for the husband.

Forty-seven years old and an ex-
pert horsewoman, "Old Mother" Djao
led band of several hundred out
laws, who terrorized broad area.
1t Is related of her that last Summer
she planned an attack against Ichowfu
after calling to her aid two added
groups of bandits. They had as
sembled at a place near the village
of Balihsiang when a homeguard of
villagers, known as the big Knife
Society" appraised of their purpose,
attacked them and suffered utter
defeat.
The villagers were driven back into
Railhsiang and the bandits followed
them. Then the gates of the village
were closed and every man was shot
down. Sixty women and children then

Dtao was asked what to do with

them. Her orders to kill them all
were carried out with the result that
every man, woman and child who
was within the walls after the gates
had been closed was slain. Even the
cattle and dogs of the village suf-
fered the same fate.
Ling-che is simply vivisection done
by experts in such a manner that the
victim survives in a conscious state
through hours of a terrible ordeal.
