Express Companies
Plan a System of
Storage Charges

Agent r. L. Walton, of the Ameri-
can Railway Express company, an
nOunced today that the express com
panics plan to establish a system Of
charges for the storing Of express
shipments refused when rendered for
delivery or uncalled for.
A docket outlining the proposal has
been issued for the information Of
the public, and, in due course it will
be filed with the Interstate Commerce
Commission as an addition to the ex-
press classification to become effec-
tive on or about May /.
The rules and charges will apply to
business Of this character which the
local office has to store owing to tho
refusal of the consignee to accept il
when tender of delivery Is made or
which for any other reason not the
fault of the express company cannon
be delivered. Three days "frec time
will be allowed, after which the stor-
age charge will be 10 cents for the
first day, five cents for each Of the
next eight days with a maximum Of
so cents month for each shipmcn,
weighing 100 pounds or less. There
will be regular monthly charge
thereafter Of SO cents per month o,
fraction thereof.
Must Give Notice
On shipments weighing more than
LOO pounds this storage charge will
be assessed proportionally, any frac-
tional part Of 100 pounds to be CON-
putcd as 100 pounds. i. G., on ship
ments weighing moro than 100
pounds and not more than 200 pounds
the storage charge will be twice that
shown above on 100 pound ship
ment. The carrier is required to

durum wheats. Nine and one-half
per cent Of this amount equals
288, 7O5 bushels containing smut.
According to the reports the aver
age cut in price per bushel was Ga
cents. The loss is therefore $751;
765.OO. Plant specialists would
probably figure that the loss due to
the reduced yield is nearly twice
this amount. If this estimate is
correct the loss for Mclean county
amounts to approximately $50, 600.
The counties in the state have
been divided into A, B and c class
es according to the amount of stink
ing smut in the wheat. Seven coun-
ties are in the A class and contain
little or no smut. Mr.. Norling re-
ports that Mclean county comes in
the B class, but he believes that the
farmers will try to put Mclean in
the A class for 1926 and>a circular
has been sent to every farmer in
the county on treating sinking
smut with the new as we'll as the
old method.
There are two kinds Of smut on
wheat, the sinking smut and loose
smut, according to Mr.. Norling.
Formaldehyde and copper carbon
ate will kill sinking smut but not
loose smut, for which the hot water
treatment is usually used. Those
interested in the treatment for
loose smut may write the county
agents office at Washburn for spe-'
cial bulletins.

give proper arrival notice to the con-
signec, such notice to bear the same
address as appears on the shipment
and to retain in it's files duplicate
copy Of such notice.
In the course Of business many CON
trovcrsics arise, during which a con
signec may prefer TO refuse ship
ments sent to him. The carrier has
no alternative but to store the goods
and cannot relieve itself Of the ship
ment or Of all responsibility for it.
until the parties involved adjust their
differences. This may take several
months in which the carrier is an in
nocent bystander, having been in no.
wise responsible for the non delivery.
The express companies have not
heretofore made it practice to as
sess storage charges on unclaimed
shipments, although it has long been
"a practice with freight and baggage.
They contend that the expense and
extra labor involved should be borne,
not by the express patrons generally,
but by the owners of the goods SO
stored.

IAPAN'S PREMIER
 IS HOMLIEST NAN
This Is One of His Claims to Publicity

Tokyo. May 21 LP)-Japans new premier focuses public attention wherever he goes but not because his personal appearance is, especially agreeable to the eye or that he pos- sesses any particular charm Of man. ner.
 On the contrary. he rather brides himself upon being about the home Hest man of his country.
 It is his extreme youth that puts him into the calcium light and this alone that prompts such speculation as there may be of his qualification for high office.
 Reijiro WakatsulN, successor to the late Count Kato as head of gov ernment. has barely turned sixty one. In Japan, age comes before beauty and there is some concern among the ultra conservatives whether Kakatsuld will prove capa- ble of coping with the tremendous problems of state.
 Prince Saionji the last of the elder statesmen who have always been the power behind the throne, ? is ninety years old. The late Premier Kato was siXty-seven, and many be- lieved even he had not attained the years of discretion. Most of the other premicrs have been men past seventy,

states are inclined 10 hol9 out for states rights, federation spokes- men point out, although the fed eration as a whole wants the fed eral amendment.
 Notables in various lines of en- deavor have hecu drawn upon 10 make the chief talks They include Herbert Hoover. Princess Catacu- gene, the author. Mrs. Mabel Willie brandt, assistant United States at torney general, Mrs. Minnie Mad .dern Fiske. the actress, Mrs. Frank .Gilbreth, industrial engineer and psychologist, and William Green, president of the American Federa- ton of Labor.
 Entertainment and social events will have their place in the pro- gram. Elaborate musicales have been arranged for each session, with American women composers featured. Many distinguished Me- tropolitan artists also have been Iengaged.
 The Pennsylvania and New Yer sey groups will be joint hOstesses to the convention, led by the wives Of the two state governors. Mrs Pinchot and Mrs. Harry Moore, and
 Mrs. Thomas 4, Edison, and tho wife of the Atlantic City mayor aS honorary officials. Social affairs

a story to the effect that a class Of girl students visited the last session Of the diet and were required to write esasys on their experience. Nearly all of the essays dwell upon His Excellency's homeliness. MT. Wakatsulli said, however, that beauty is as beauty does" and em- phatically stated that his ministry would not resign because of his un- handsome countenance.
 NIr. Wakatsuki derives considera- ble personal satisfaction out of the fact that Japan is not concerned at present with wet and dry questions. Whether one shall use alcoholic stimulants is not a national issue. The new premier is said to be rather outspoken on his ability to take it ! or leave it alone" and his supporters hale this quality as talent likely to add to his popularity in official life.
 He drinks sake, the Japanese na- l tional beverage, and liquors when- ever the thirst is upon him. His ability to drink right along with the rest of the boys" rates him ace-high among the Japanese.
 Premier Wakatsuki was born in a samurai family of low rank. In his | youth he was a primary schoo teacher drawing a monthly salary ot i three and q half yen. Later he came to Tokyo and entered the Imperia University of Tokyo from which he was graduated in 1892. He ther became a revenue officer later en, tered the finance office and was gradually promoted to finance minis ter. He then became home minister
