LEARNS WHY OMAR EXT0LLED TREES American Consul at 1abriZ
 Makes Discovery

Washington. Nov. 1s Pl-Augus- tin William Perrin, American con- sul at Tabriz, thinks he has found out why omar became so enthuslas- tic about tree.
 Telling in the current Foreign Service Journal of his transfer to the ancient Persian port near Mount Ararat 10 reopen the United States consulate closed since 1920, he observes:
 The solicitude Of the Moslem husband and father surrounds every house and garden with high mud walls lest an alien see the beauties Of his harem, but In the suburbs. where the almonds, april cots and peaches grow, the walls are lower. and from horseback one may look into orchards whose pink and white profusion harmOnizes in spring with the earthen ramparts, making a monochrome of almost Japanese beauty, unfortunately ephemeral.
 Through these orchards 8. river runs, or at least stony ChaInel requiring picturesque arched bridges over 1t, though the bed Is destitute of water, which has been diverted into irrigation ditches. Beyond the orchards all is sand and gravel, a typical Persian landscape, explaining perhaps the exaggerated poetic praise of Persian gardens. One re- members that tree, 8 jug of wine, s loaf of bread and thou made a paradise in Cmar's time"

Later in the day he returned with
the children.
''They were sweet children. The
little girl was especially attractive
with large dark eyes. Both children
had dark hair, as had the father
who was tall and slender. / never
talked much to him, but somehow
didn't like him. His travelling cases

had brought with them, were of ex

school near here, and allowed them
to play around the house after hours
One time when the little boy was in
my house he indicated that he
was extremely hungry, and while
don't think the father denied them
sufficient food, I felt sorry for the
little things, fed only with food pre-
pared by a mans hands, and hao
them in here frequently for meals
They were sweet, polite, obedient
children, minding him well.

had not gotten along, as she was
insanely jealous. That's all the ref

for Ford before the jury, promised
to prove that in one case 30,000,000
pounds Of Kentucky tobacco was
dumped onto the market in a single
day by officers Of growers associa-
ticn whom Sapiro had allegedly
picked. The prices received was 10
cents a pound. Reed said, while in
dependent growers for the same
crop received 141a cents.
He charged Sapiro had gone
through the South making elaborate
promises that he would bring about
a day when farmers would ride in
Cadillacs," send their children to
college and live in comparative lux
ury, as he said they were then do
ing in California. But, Reed
charged, heavy losses were the
eventual lot of the farmers, while
Sapiro collected fees as high as
S142, 900 for his services in forming
the cooperatives.
The American farmer, as pictured
by Senator Reed. was in the grip of
Sapiro, exploiting him for his own
profit, and with no redress.
Sapiro, on the other hand, was
pictured by Reed as man who had
dreams of wealth and power which
