WHITE PEOPLE
SLAIN, THEIR
HOMES BURNED
Minister of Interior Charges
Communists Responsible
For Outbreak
$4,000 ARE ON WARPATH
Government Is Taking Active
Measures to Halt Their
Depredations
$4,000 ARE ON WARPATH

La Paz, Bolivia, Aug. 13.-tR-
The uprising Of $4,000 Indians. which
has kept white residents of the de-
partments of Potosi. Cochambamba,
and Sucre in a state of terror for
several days, appears to be spread
ing throughout the Republic.
Stories of depredations are filter
ing in from all points and white
hacienda owners are fleeing before
the infuriated descendants Of the
ancient lncas to more populated cen
ters.
Active measures are being taken
by the government to prevent a
spread Of the rising to the depart
ment of La Paz.
Whites in Minority
There are approximately 100000
Indians in this department. with the
whites decidedly in the minority, and
fears are voiced by Officials that. il
the movement does reach La Pax. il
might easily assume the nature of
catastrophe.
The charge has been made in con-
gress by the minister Of interior
that communist agents are respon-
sible for the outbreak. inciting the
Indians to nationwide rebellion to
establish the supremacy of their
race and obtain ownership of all
lands. He told the newspaper FL
Diario that the rebellion had entered
grave phase, inasmuch as many
Indians had obtained fire arms. in
the use Of which they were famed.
Iu Tomoya an alleged communist.
Luis Navarro, has been taken into
custody, accused Of arousing the In
dians to lawless acts, and measures
have also been taken against law
yer, Hilario Fernandez, charged with
distributing hommunist propaganda.
Whites Slain. Homes Burned
White inhabitants Of the three de-
partments, where the disturbances
started, have been slain and their
homes burned by the Indians, who
armed for the most part with clubs
and slingshots, are reported to be
out to destroy every vestige Of the
white mans civilization.
A number of sanginary clashes
have taken place between the Indians
and soldiers sent to quell them with
modern war material.
Indians comprise about 10 per cent
Of Bolivia's population. Those who
are engaging in the present outbreak
speak the Inca tongue. Women car
rying babies on their backs are to be
seen at the rear of the marauding
bands.

CROP ESTIMATES ARE NOT
EXAGGERATED. MEYER SAYS

Rapid City, s. D.. Aug. 13.--P)-
The present favorite outlook for a
good grain crop and fair prices.
especially for livestock, will permit
"many borrowers to put their loans
in good order" Eugene Meyer Of the
federal farm loan board reported
today to PresidSnt Coolidge.
Il was happy to tell Mr.. Coolidge
he said. "aftef = trip through the

"There is a larges volume of de-
linquencies on farm mortgages. due
to past troubles, but it is hoped and
expected that the present. favorable
outlook for a good grain crop and
fair nrices. especially livestock, will
permit many borrowers to put their
loans in good order.
Billion More Than Last Year
"It is still a little too early to
speak with certainty but the indi-
cations are that, taking the country
as q whole, the farmers should
realize on food and feed crops, cot
ton and livestock, and other smaller
crops. well over 100000, 900 more
than for the past year.
"In some districts, the market for
farm lands is commencing to show
an improved activity after long
period Of stagnation."
Mr.. Meyer, who has been given q
recess appointment on the federal
farm load board. declined to COM
ment on the report that Senator
Fletcher of Florida would oppose
his confirmation by the senate. He
also. declined to discuss the political
situation.

GRAIN SAMPLES
GRADED HIGH
Poundage, Protein of Eight
Specimens Is Good,
Miesen Says

Samples Of wheat from Burleigh
county. sent to the state agricultural
college for weight and protein tests
graded high, County Agent A. R.
Miesen said today.
Eight samples were sent in from
various parts of the county.
A sample from the NJ. F. Agnew
farm near here bad test weight of
52.3 pounds bushel and a protein Of
1914, while one from the Adrian Ash
bridge farm had test weight of So
pounds to the bushel and protein
content Of 1855.
The test weight of a sample from
the P. Wetzstein farm near here was
b8.5 pounds a bushel and its protein
content 1889, while one from the
Schonert farm near Arnold had a test
weight Of 57.5 pounds and a protein
content of 11.99.
Samples Test High
An unnamed sample from Menoxen
tested 56.2 pounds to the bushel and
had protein content Of 1921. An
other sample from the NJ. T.. Nc
Carthy farm near Bismarck tested
58.3 pounds to the bushel and had a
protein content Of 1884, and one
from the George Cook farm near Bis
marck had test weight Of SO pounds
per bushel and a protein content of
14.11. The wheat from the Cook farm
was taken from field which had
been badly damaged by hail.
An unnamed sample tested 61.e
pounds per bushel and had protein
Of 1884. It was taken from field
five miles southeast Of Bismarck.
All the test samples were Marquis
wheat. As soon as thrsashing begins.
he expects to take more sample, Mr.,
Miesen said. Any farmers who wish
tests made Of their wheat when they
begin threshing should send about q
pint Of it to the county, agent.
The, samples already tested were
taken from fields which had wheat
varying in ripeness. Apparently, Mr..
Miesen said. the, sample which mad
the greatest per bushel weight ahd
the highest protein, were those taken
from the fields with the dryest and
ripest grain.

Special Items Have Boosted
Limit of $3,3OO,OOO,OOO Set
Last June By $12O.OO0,O 900
Surplus Last Year Still
Leaves Margin For Tax
Slash, However

Rapid City, S. D., Aug. 13.-4Pt-
An increase in government cxpcndi-
lures next year above the first esti-
mate was put up to President Cool
idge today by Director Lord of
the budget, who came into the Black
Hills last night with a tentative
budget.
! Various special items have con-
tributed to swell the tentative esti-
mate $125 ,OOO,O 900 above the limit of
$4,000, 100000 set by the president
last June for government cxpendi-
lures in the coming year.
Whatever comes OF these special
appropriations which are before the
president, General Lord gave assur-
ance that next years budget would
carry funds for the first years work
on the additional cruisers authorized
by congress. A year ago the budget
director and the president proposed
to withhold money for starting work
on three of the eight cruisers which
had been authorized by congress. but
after bitter. fight congress over
ruled the administration and insisted
upon appropriating money for these
other three for which plans are now
being drafted.
Will Not Prevent Tax Cut
1t is not considered likely, even If
the president does approve the $l25,-
100000 in extra appropriations for
next year, that it will have material
effect on the prospective tax reduc-
tion. The treasury closed its books
the last fiscal year with surplus of
about $6O0,000,OOO which, in the
opinion of the president, leaves an
ample margin for tax slash.
While Director Lord did not men
tion what items went to make up the
additional 100000 asked by the
departments it is presumed that some
of this would be for flood relief in
the Mississippi river area.
Hears Of Farm Conditions
NJ Ceolidgc also was interested
today in receiving report on
farm conditions in the far west and
middlewest which was presented to
him by Eugene Meyer, newly ap-
pointed chairman of the federal farm
loan board. Mr.. Meyer has been on
a trip through the west and he gave
the president an intimate picture of
the situation out here.
With SECRETARY Jardine working
hard on new farm bill which aims
to set up eS00,OOO.000 fund to be
loaned to farmers, Mr.. Coolidue is
anxious to learn more at first hand
the>cxact wishes Of the farmers and
he listened intently to Mr.. Meyer.

Right of Federal Reserue BOard to Fix Re-discOunt
 Rates Is No,c Questioned

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Un, der what economic circumstances the Federal Reserve Board has the power to fix .rediscount rates at Federal Reserve Banks ap pears likely to develop into an issue upon which Attorney General Sargent is likeiy to be asked te render an opinion and Congress may be called upon to defina by legislation.
 The Board recently established a rediscount rate of three and one-half per cent for the Chicago Federal Reserve Bank in place of a four per cent rate. The ac ton was understood to have been based on the desire of the Board to institute the rate reduction in the Chicago district which has been adopted by most of the fed eral reserve banks of the ccunl try.
 Disagreement Results
 However, from several sources disarmament to the Boards orde, is indicated to have resulted, in cluding the disclosures that the Board itself was not unanimous in it's decision and that Senatoi Carter Glass of Virginia, De 'iocrat of the Senate BankIne Committee and co-author of the federal reserve. act, had protected against the reduction as "arbit raryv and not within the mean ing of the act. The Virginia Sen ator in statement later at his Lynchburg, Va, home, expressed the view that Congress should promptly enact legislation on the boards rights (which nobody will misinterpret."
 The Executive Committee of the Chicago Bank has instructed its attorney to request the Attorney General to render an opinion on the right of the board to estab fish the reduction. At the time of the reduction in the other banks the Chicago banks direc tors were said to have declined to make the reduction.
 Board ls Split
 The boards vice governor, Ed mund Platt, revealed that there was lack of unanimity in the reduction order, saying he had op posed the action and at the same time said Senator Glass had visit ed number of the boards mem bers and voiced the opinion thai the reduction was in contraven tion to the meaning of the fedora reserve act.
