MCNARY HOPES
r 0 R SOLUTION
FARM PROBLEMS
Declares Agriculture Must
Be Given Equality
With Industry

WASHINGTON, Oct. &c R-Sen-
ator McNary, OF oregon, co-author OF
the vetoed NcNorw FFaugen bill, and
new chairman Of the senate agricul-
ture committee, came to Washington
today bearing message of hope for
solution of the farm relief problem
now worrying republican party chief
tains.
'What form farm legislation takes
is not so important" Senator Nc
Nary declared, $50 long as our guide
is the principle that agriculture must
be restored to It's former place of
equality with industry, transportation
and labor"
Senator McNary. in prepared
statement, said that the :ss.rolus prob
lem was still the outstanding issue
on farm relief. The equalization fee
provision of his vetoed measure, he
reiterated, would have provided a
means for marketing this Surplus, buS
he added:
"The export debenture plan Ell
dorsed by the National Grange under
takes to do the same thing, and,. if
1 interpret correctly the statement Of
Secretary Jardine, he would attempt
to do the same thing by loaning
large sums of money 20 cooperatives
to regulate and withhold the surplus
from sale, thereby stabilizing prices
by preventing violent price fluctua-
tions."
While he has not discarded the
controverted equalization fee, it was
obvious that the senator was locking
with favor on both substitutes men
toned by him. The plan of the
National Grange would meet the
losses sustained by farmers in dis
posing of surplus crops through ex-
port debentures which would entitle
the holders to cash them at par out
of receipts froSl customs collected by
Americas tariff.
The agriculture chairman also made
it clear that he was considering the
administration plan to Authorize con-
siderable loans to cooperative market
ing associations.

WEEPAH, DESERT
GOLD CAMP NOW
GHOST VILLAGE

WEEPAI, New, Ovt. 90 tP)-Weepah,
the prospector's desert hole that soar
ed through the fame of gold rush
last March, has dwindled to put little
more than name.
The wind blown streets that were
packed with jostling, gold-fevered,
gambling men and women few
months ago, we're the thoroughfares
for so inhabitants today. They re-
membered the days and nights of not
long ago, when Weepah's population
was at 1000 souls, and when Sundays
were marked by the inrush of at least
5000 sightseers.
A few of the shacks that served
at the entertainment places, food
stores, restaurants and stock brokers'
headquarters remained today; enough
to outline the main street that once
was as important to many as Wall
street in New York, or Montgomery
street in San Francisco, for there
purses were emptied and others filled
in the wink of an eye, or the scratch
of a brokers' pencil-all for the gold
that someone said had been found
beneath Weepah.

u. S. Will Finish
Case Against Fall
Early This Week

WASHINGTON, Oct. 90 (R.-With
the completion of the story of the
operations of the short-lived but
celebrated Continental Trading COM
pany, Ltd, of Canada, special gov
ernment Oil counsel will complete
early next week the presentation of
their case to the jury in the Teapot
Dome conspiracy. trial
While they have produced wit
nesses to connect Harry F. Sinclair
with the operations of that company,
they have expressed scant hope OF
any direct evidence to show that he
ever was in possession of the $230,500
in liberty bonds which the govern
the Continental Trading company and
subsequently obtained by M. T. Ever
hart, son-in-law of Albert B. FALL
and used for his own benefit and for
that of Fall.
Just as was the case when the
civil suit was tried at Cheyenne,
Wyoming, the government is without
the testimony of four men they have
sought to elicit information from.
Everhart refused to answer a ques-
ton as to whether he got the bonds,
standing on his constitutional right
that he did not have to answer be-
cause his evidence might tend to
incriminate him.
H. S. Osler, a Canadian citizen,
president of the Continental company,
who, the government has testimony
to show, directed the purchase of the
bonds for the Continental company,
is unavailable as a subpoena would
not hold against him, since he is
not an American citizen. He declined
to give deposition in Canada for
use at the Cheyenne trial
The other two men who, govern
ment counsel contend, could tell about
the Continental company in it's de-
tails are Harry NJ Blackmer, former
chairman of the board of the Wild
West Refining company, and James
E. O'Neil. former president of the
Prairie Oil and Gas company. They
have been sojourning in Europe since
the early days of the oil investigation.
In the absence of these witnesses,
government counsel are undertaking
to show to the jury that Sinclair was
one of those who guaranteed the
contract of the Continental with the
late A. E. Humphreys, of Denver, and
that of all the men concerned in
that contract, Sinclair alone had
dealings with Fall at that time, these
dealings leading up to the lease OF
the Wyoming naval reserve.
| Former Senator Charles S. Thomas
! of Colorado, who acted as counsei
| for Humphreys, will complete his
story of the oil contract conferences
Monday and later the government;
will call to the stand Robert w
Stewart, chairman of the board OF
the Standard Oil company of Indiana
who, with Sinclair, has been named
as guaranteeing the Continental's
performance of its contract with
Humphreys.

President Gales, in response, met him
fully half way.
Mexico's interest in Ambassador
Morrow was shown BY the gathering
along the streets and in and around
the national palace of the largest
crowd of Mexicans ever assembled, it
is said for the presentation of the
American diplomatic representative.
The great audience hall of the ma
tional palace, which was open to the
public for the occasion, was packed
to its capacity, with Mexicans largely
outnumbering Americans, although
the members of the American col
ony turned out in large numbers.
A cavalry escort of presidential
guards accompanied the ambassa-
doris party, which proceeded in au-
tomobiles to the national palace.
Senior Strada, acting foreign minister,
General Alvarez, chief of the preSi-
Dental staff, and Alfonso Rosenzweig
Diaz, chief of Protocol of the for
eign office, were with the ambassador
when he was presented to the preSi-
dent.
II enter upon my duties with a full
consciousness of the honor which my
government has conferred on me"
said the ambassador. ut is my ear
nest hope that, animated by a COM
mon desire to promote the welfare of
the United Mexican States and the
United States of America, we shall
not fail to adjust outstanding ques-
tions with that dignity and mutual
respect which should mark the in
ternational relationship of two SOW
ereign and independent states"
The president of Mexico, in reply,
expressed hope of cooperation, har-
mony and friendship in the relations
of the two governments. Ambassador
Morrow read his remarks in English;
President Gales read his in Spanish.
Each had been given in advance a
copy of what the other would say,
and each had carefully considered his
utterance.
Mrs Morrow and her daughter,
Constance, stood nearby as the am
bassador and the president exchang
greetings. A Mexican military band

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 90, {P)-Al-
though both chambers of the state

lature during the coming week
Governor Hunt late last night at
Aqua Caliente signed house bill 5,
by Brooke, of Yavapai, repeating
Senator William Joyner's bill Of the

ing legislative code committee and
providing for the printing of 1000
copies of the revised laws of Ari-
zona. Discussion of the action to be
taken by Arizona in Colorado river

It will be stated in the memorial
that abundant subterranean waters
exist in the San Simon and Hot Sui
phur Springs Valleys and that it may
be found at shallow depth.

M r S. GRAYSON
INDICATES TRIP
TO BE DELAYED

OLD ORCHARD, Me-, Oct. 90 Up
Mrs. Frances Grayson tonight an
nounced the return of her amphibian
plane, The Dawn, to New York to-
morrow with the words: I'm my dis
pointment of today, can only strive
for a bigger, greater success for to-
morrow"
Mrs. Grayson made known her de-
cision in dramatic way at the flying
camp she had maintained here for
almost three weeks, when with only a
few moments warning she handed a
typewriter statement to the news
papermen.
The purpose of the return and con-
sequent postponement of the proposed
flight to Copenhagen was to confer
( she said, with Igor Sikorsky, builder
of the plane. 1t appeared probable
that this would eliminate The Dawn
from any transatlantic flight before
spring.
