While the senate agriculture COM

More Liberal Policy Asked
Meanwhile, a group representing
1J national farm organizations
urged before a house appropriations
subcommittee q more liberal federal
policy IN financing agricultural re-
search.

been more liberal this year in maxi
ing the budget for research in the
department OF agriculture" a.

groups, that investments in re-

Another Menace
Another situation which he said
was growing rapidly, and which
would further affect the farmer was
the organization of powerful COR

he was not criticizing these corpor.

come from only one source, low

prices to consumers.

Republican politics, followed closely

.Ohio's Republican national com.
mitteeman. Maurice Maschkc. has
joined those who are advocating the
nomination Of Herbert Hoover, and
has challenged Senator Willis to
make public any correspondence
that would show that he has acted
IN bad faith in favoring the cabinet
member over the senator.
Willis issued . statement yester-
day declaring Maschke had given
him his cordial assurance Of sup
port" and added that II the commit
teenan assumes that his very sur
prising course in this matter will
change my attitude, he is mistaken"
The senator said he was Surprised"

From Albany, N. T., where Cow

comparing Lincoln and Coolidge.
Coolidge Could BE Reelected
Former Ambassador George H.

pressed belief that President Cool

BRONCHITIS
PROVES FATAL
TO ASQUITH
Lady Oxford, Two Daughters
and Son at His Bedside
When Death Came
VILLAGE IN MOURNING
Earl of Balfour, Another War
Statesman, Confined to
His Home

Sutton Courtenay, England, Feb.
15.-lR-The Earl of Oxford and
Asquith. who IS Herbert H. Asuuith
served Great Britain as premier
from 1908 to 1916, died today at the
age Of Is.
Soon after his retirement from
the leadership in the Liberal party
in October, 1926, advancing age be.
gan to make inroad on his health.
Last week he took to his bed. Pull
nlonary complications developed and
Monday afternoon he lost conscious
ness. All hope for his recovery was
soon abandoned. The end came at
$3.50 this morning.
A week ago the former premier
was confined to his room with 4
severe cold, an acute attack of
pharynsitis followed and bronchitis
set in.
The Earl died in a mullion.win-
dowed room overlooking his beloved
Thames. At his bedside were the
members Of his family. Lady Oxford
(MarGot Asquith). his two daugh-
ters: Princess Bibsesco. and Lady
nn-Carter, and his son An
thony Asquith.
Friends With Him
Throughout the night q fe-.:. close
friends and q number of villagers
who knew Lord Oxford we'll, awaited
the end which physici.ns had said
was inevitable because Of his ad-
vanced age and weak heart.
As the former premier fought his
losing battle with deatis, smother
outstsndjng statesman. Of the war,
the Earl Of Balfour, was confined
to his homo near Prestonkirk. Scot
land. on the orders Of his doctors.
Earl Balfour, who is nearing his
eightieth birthday, had an acute at
tack Of laryngitis which left him SO
weak that his physicians have pre-
scribed complete rest for many
weeks.
There was deep mourning in this
little village of Sutton Courtenay by
the country folk, not so much for
the British statesman and famous
figure in the world war as for the
kindly white haired old man who,
until few weeks ago, took long
daily strolls through the fields and
lanes Of Berkshire and along the
banks Of the Thames.
Became an Invalid
Then an affection Of his leg kept
him from moving about much. Ad-
vancing age had made inroad5 on
his once robust health and he be-
came an invalid, but was still fresh
and vigorous in mind and keenly in
terested in affairs.
His political career ended in a
party dissension with the man who
in 1916 had succeeded him as. pre-
mier, David Lloyd George.
For the last two years Of his pre-
miership, Earl Oxford faced the
crises Of the great war stolidly, but
It was felt that he lacked the mag
netism necessary to guide Great
Britain through the conflict and he
stepped aside, being succeeded by
Lloyd George.
Then In another great crisis in
England, the general strike Of 1926,
Earl Oxford censured Lloyd George
for his attitude in favor Of the
