TOTAL MILL LOSS 50 FAR this YEAR
E$l67,000, AUDIT REPORT SHOWS

the fall of 1926, has been sold dur
ing the past three or four months.
About $4,000 bushels of this wheat
averaged 14.40 per cent in protein,
and was shipped out of the elevator
during the last days of June and the
first Of July, the sale being made at
q premium of - cents over option.
This transaction resulted in leav-
ing the mill with practically nothing
to grind excepting low quality wheat
Of from 11.0Ol per cent to 1850 per
cent protein content, which neces-
STATED shut down of the plant in
order to replenish the mill with suf-
ficient high protein wheat to make
mill mix. The new wheat was pur-
chased at premiums as high as q
cents over option, and had wheat of
equal protein content to that sold
been obtainable the loss would have
ranged from 10 cents to Is cents per
bushel, in addition to dcpriving the
mill of the old wheat for milling
purposes, which loss is difficult to
determine.
Charges Coordination Lack
II am informed by the manager
here (Mr. Spencer) that he was not
aware Of this transaction having
taken place; and it goes further to
show the lack of coordination be-
tween the departments and the SER
ious results Of having conflicting
managers handling the business
without consultation a matter which
l called to your attention in my re-
port Of December 81, 1926"
Since the transactions referred to
by Nelson occurred in June and July
it is presumed here that they were
negotiated by II. T. Webster, form
erly wheat buyer at the mill, who
later was removed by Governor Sor-
lie.
The financial record of the mill
for this year, as compiled by the
industrial commission follows:

Industrial Commission Au-
ditor Says-Calls Transac.
ton Unusual

Losses at the state mill and cleva-
tor during August reached $3l ,O28.-
81 and brought the loss for the first
eight months of 1927 to $167,956.59,
according to the report of n. &. Mel
son, auditor at the mill.
a part of the loss, Nelson said in
his report to the state industrial
commission, is due to the situation
resulting from lack Of high-protein
wheat and the necessity for paying
2 high premium for wheat with a
strong protein content.
Commenting on the wheat situa-
ton at the mill, he says in his re-
port:
There is attached hereto COM
parative grain inventories OF July
3Oth and August 3lst. showing the
premium values placed on all grain
at both periods, also the amount OF
various grades and the protein con-
tent Of wheat on hand at these dates.
You will note that all the high pro-
tein wheat which we had on hand
here previous to June 80, 1927, has
been sold, and that wheat Of lower
quality in protein content has been
purchased out of stored grain to re-
plenish that which was sold.
Transaction Called Unusual
"This is one Of the most unusual!
transactions which has transpired
here for some time, and results IN
the heavy loss shown at August 3lst.

highest quality wheat, purchased IN

and handling of the great reception
In honor Col. Charles A. Lindbergh
will go down in local annals as one
Of the brightest pages in the police
record of the National Capital.
Colonel Lindbergh, before his
departure, praised the police
arrangements as the best he has

feted him.
Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh was
so pleased that she requested that
Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, Superinten-
dent of Police, go to New York to
tage charge of the arrangements
there.
The crowds along the parade line
saturday were handled by 354
policemen. Eighty additional men
were sent to the Treasury Depart
ment when the cables holding the
crowd there began to give under
the pressure. Their services, how
ever. provtd unnecessary.
In New York, 5000 policemen
were stationed along hte parade
line. the men standing six feet
apart. and even then the crowds
broke through and it became neces-
sary to bring fire hoses into play
to restrain them.
Il am highly pleased with the
way our force handled the proceed.
lngs OF the past three days" Major
Hesse said. 81 have not had a
complaint about a single officer or
man. I want the individual mem
oers of the force to get all the
credit that is due them."
Inspector Shelby's figures show
that during Saturday afternoon,
Sunday and Monda ymorning a
total of 1,044 police officers and
men were assigned at various times
to various Lindbergh functions. A
sergeant and eight motorcycle men
formed the personal escort to
Colonel Lindbergh at all times.

CHURCH ASKS. FOR SECRET
INVESTIGATION OF PASTOR
ACTION IS BLOW
To BARR0WS

Star chamber proceedings will set.
tie the controversy centering around
Rev. Alfred e. Barrows' continuance
in the pulpit of the Eastern Presby.
terrain Church.
| The Washington Presbytery, meet
ing at the New York Avenue Presby-
terrain Church, last night appointed
a special commission of seven min
listers and elders to hold secret ses-
sions and inquire into the grave
charges" against DIR. Barrows.
The action of the Presbytery-the
organization representing all Presby-
terrain churches in Washington and
nearby Virginia and Maryland-came
as a shock to the accused pastor.
Expected No Action
Yesterday noon DIR. Barrows has
stated that he expected the Presby-
terry to take no action. "Officially
they do not even know of any
charges against me, and officially
there are none," he said.
But several days ago the clerk
| of the Presbytery, Rev. Thomas
Clark, had received letter signed
by IL officers and members of the
Eastern Presbyterian Church, call.
ing attention to the dissension
within the congregation and ask
ing probe of charges.
1t was on the clerks motion that
the special commission was named.
While the discussion was going on,
DR.. Barrows sat on one side of the
church with about so of his sup
porters. while across the aisle sat
some 20 odd hostile members of his
| flock,
That secret hearings will be held
was verified today by Dr. Wallace
Radcliffe, chairman of the investi-
| eating committee.
Dr. Radcliffe refustd to say when
the hearings would be held, whers
they would DO held, what witnesses
would be called. or the procedure
followed.
The powers of this special COM
| mission. it was explained, however,
are the same under the circum-
stances as the powers of the Pres
bytery. It is a little Presbytery, -
and its action is final, except that
an appeal can be taken from its
action to the Baltimore Synod.
The commission, it is generally
believed. has power to unfrock a
minister. subject to approval of the
synod.
The row in the Eastern Presby-
terrain Church came to an open
break on the night of May 26 when,
following meeting of the congrega-
ton to discuss motion asking for
Rev. Barrows' resignation, a fist
fight occurred among members Of
the congregation.
Neighbors sent in a riot call, and
the street fighting was quelled by
police. Two churchmen were fined
in Police Court az result.
