continuance, and every lave
knows that motion for a conti-iu-
ance is the only perpetual motion
yet discovered.
Davis speeches have been pro-
eressive and they have been making
votes. Governor Bryan has just fin
ished a campaign in five states in
the west. He is laying before the
farmers the remedies proposed by
the Democrats, one of which is to
reduce the cost of the middIemen.
They have been forcing prices up
for the consumer and down for the
farmer. With the consumer and the
farmer brought together through CO.
operative marketing the farmer will
get more for his produdcts and the
consumer will buy for less. The de-
n1and thus created will absorb all
the farmer can produce.

1T is not overproduction that in

Republican policy of concentrating
wealth.
''There is no under-consumption

more than they ought to now. The

their food, while the poor are look

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE
Aluminium Company Of America,
"owned principally by Secretary Mel
of Pittsburg," was declared by Rep
resentative. LETTERS, OF Alabama, in a
statement made public last night by
the Democratic national committee,
mot only to have been the benefit
ciary Of special favors through tariff
legislation" but in June, 1923, to
have received can allowance Of $15,-
5S9,614.39 as settlement OF an amor
tization claim"
"And this vast allowance which
was finally granted to Mr.. Melons
company" Mr.. Jefers said, lis a diff
ferent amount and, as matter of
fact a great deal larger amount than
was first estimated to be due to the
Aluminium Company of America as
amortization"
Charging that the Aluminium COM
pany, owned chiefly by the MELONS,
is the recipient and beneficiary of
special favors at the hands of the
present administration" Mr.. LETTERS
added:
1T is an improper state of affairs
where an individual having claims
against the government for such
vast amounts is himself at the head
of the department which handles
such claims.
Compared to Partial Judge
"In so doing, Secretary Mellon is
as devoid Of ethics as would be q
judge sitting upon a case in which
he had a personal interest. And es-
pecially in a department. where ia
voritiSm in the handling of cases in
that department is completely sur
rounded and protected by the wall
Of absolute secrecy which has COW
cred all transactions within that par
ticular department"
Mr.. LETTERS also declared that the
Aluminium company has been
granted favors by the department of
labor because of the admission. out
side the immigration quota, of for
eign workers in large numbers to
work at its New York plant across
the border from Canada, when there

Referring to the amortization
claim, he said:
Several important and interest
ing steps figured in this case before
this enormous allowance was finally
granted. 1t was not granted upon the
basis of the first claim filed nor
upon the first engineers report
which was filed. Amended or sup
Elemental returns figured in this
case, as did additional reports COW
ering alleged inspections made by
engineers. in the department.
Allowance Too Generous
THE result Of the long drawn out
progress of this claim through the
bureau of internal revenue, was this
final amortization allowance Of al
most $16,0 100000, an amount far more
generous than the amount originally
claimed or estimated. Either the
engineers responsible for the original
amount estimated to be due to the
company were extremely moderate
and did not do the company Justice,
or the engineers who made the final
allowance were extremely generous
to the aluminium company. -.
Il may say that l believe that the
real truth OF the matter concerning
this amortization refund claim which
was allowed is that it was never
truly legal amortization claim. The
stuff on which this enormous
amount was allowed could never
have been properly classed as COM
ing within the scope Of the legal
meaning of amortiza ton"

PLYMOUTH. England, January 22-
Lady AStor has given 10000 to the
housing trust to alleviate Plymouths
housing problem. All income from the
fund in the way of rents, or for houses
built, Lady Astor suggests, should. be
turned into a fund for constructing
more dwellings.
Tie former American woman, wife of
Viscount Astor and a member of the
house of commons, advocates a reduc-
tion in rents to families for every child

The 10000 is gift in perpetuity.
1t long has been the wish of Lady
Astor to do something of lasting bene-
fl for the town. which has been her first
and only political love. The sugges-
tion OF housing trust as the mate
rialization OF her wish came first from
Lord Astor. who, when his wife ap-
providing plan being hers-helped her
work out the details.
n proposal TO devote rents 10 swell
ing the capital of the trust, thus en-
abling an automatic supply of more
houses as they are needed, is an essen

 BENTON'S EXPOSE
Tells Senate Committee How the Press Broadcasts Railroad
 Propaganda.

Washington, May 17.-Propaganda of the railroads being disseminated through subsidized newspapers has prevented the public from getting fair understanding of the railroad problem, particularly of the injurious effect of high transportation charges.
 This information was imparted to the Senate committee on interstate commerce by John E. Benton, repre- sentative of the National Association of Public Utility Commissioners, in connection with'a demand made upon the committee for the repeal of the rate-making section of the transporta- tion act.
 Officials of the organization, in touch with the situation in every State of the Union, were declared by Benton qualified to judge the effect of a "systenatic' program of misinfor- nation.
 Benton declared he was voicing the opinion of members of the association formulated at it's annual meeting. He was then instructed, he said to urge upon Congress the iniquity of. the rate-making clause and ask for it's elimination.
 The railroads, asserted Benton, were misleading the public with the aid of Subsidized newspapers and periodicals" which publish only the distorted side advanced bY the car riers' publicity writer's
 Were the public properly informed, said Benton, the demand for rate re- vision and the rewriting of the trans portation law would be more insistent than it now is.
 The public realizes that something is radically wrong," Benton contin- ued- 'The extent of the injustice they suffer, however, is not properly ap- preciated, because the press Is giving them no chance to form a conclusion upon the facts"
 Senator Cumnlins of Iowa, resented the attack upon the press.

listening to diatribes against the newspapers" he said.
 "The evidence speaks for itself" Benton retorted.
 Nevertheless, I do not believe we should permit witnesses to go afle1d in this inquiry" said Senator Cum mins, with considerable asperity.
 Personally, I am convinced that we cannot know too much of what some papers are doing to nis1ead the pub lic,'' interjected Senator Frank E. Gooding, of Idaho.
