POTATO INCREASE SEEN

The index of the general level of
North Dakota farm prices for No
vember Is was two points higher
than that Of October Is, 0. NJ. Full
.r, assistant farm economist at the
North Dakota Agricultural college,
says.
Spring wheat should increase in
price during the next two or three
months, Fuller says. Present prices
should hold to their levels. The
world wheat supply outlook con-
iinues the same as month ago.
The quantity of millable Canadian
wheat is reduced. A greater world
supply is offset by a greater con-
sumption demand
Tlaxseed prices will be main
tanned, Fuller reports. North Da--
kota's 1923 production is estimated
100000 bushels less than last year.
Ter the United States the estimate
is 100000 bushels less. Russia's
1928 crop is smaller than in 1927.
Potato Rise Seen
Potatoes should advance in price
after December l. North Dakota
potatoes are yielding above cxpec-
tations with an average state acre
age of los bushels, the highest since
1914.
Cattle supplies f.: November have
been small and will remain so during
December. A seasonal decline with
weekly fluctuations is predicted for
fed steers as supplies are fairly lib
eral. The condition Of North Da.
kota cattle on the ranges is good.
No advance c. decline in hog
PRICES is expected in December. The
usual seasonal advance in March and
April is predicted. The estimated
average rice for Nov. Is was $3.50.
With the increased supply of hogs
during October. the out-of-storagc
movement was cut down.
Better lamb Price
The feeder lamb situation indi-
Gates that lamb prices will make a
sharp recovery during the next few
months. Certain wide price fluctu-
atoms are expected. A large pro-
portion of lambs instead of going
h.ck to feed lots went to slaughter
this year. :,

Prices may be less favorable in De

SHIPS OFFICER
DEFENDS CAREY
VESTRIS ACTION
Says Captain and Chief Engin-
Ger Thought Ship Would
Float for Hours
HAS NEW LIST THEORY
Real Hero Of Disaster Was
Engineer Who Died Prevent
ing Boiler Blast

New York, Nov. 2S.-(AP)-The
second officer of the British liner
Vcstris, just received from injuries
received at the time Of the sinking,
gave testimony to federal investiga-
tors yesterday tending to clear the
name of Captain Carey.
He said he believed up until the
time the Vestris sank that she
would float for hours, and expressed
the opinion that the captain shared
this belief. All the information the
captain had from Chief Engineer
Adams, he said, was Measuring"
the engineer reporting that his eff
forts to pump out the water in the
bilges apparently was succeeding.
Down With Captain
The second officer, Leslie Watson.
told q dramatic story of the last "a
hours aboard the doomed vessel; how
he and the captain superintendent
the lowering of the lifeboats and
then when the vessel sank, went
down together. Watson said he had
a grip on the captain when they sank
but that they were torn apart and
that the captain never came to the
surface.
A new theory as to what caused
the fatal list of the liner was giver
by Harry Wheeler, superintendent
Of the Lamport and Holt line, the
owners.
He said it was his opinion that
when the big wave hit the liner Sun.
day afternoon, 18 hours before she
sank, the coal in the upper port side
bunkers shifted to the starboard ant
that this caused the increased list
He said that a fore and aft bulkheat
in the bunkers might prevent a sim
liar occurrence in other vessels.
Negro Firemen Mutinied
Additional testimony that the ne
gro firemen muntinied was given a
the steamboat inspection service in
quiry. Ernest Smith, second re
frigeration engineer, and other en-
gineers testified that the stokehol,
crew refused to turn to after tn,
ship took the dangerous list and tina
officers who should have been OF
deck directing the work of launch
ing the lifeboats were forced t,
stoke the boilers.
Smith also repeated his charg
that Lionel Licorish, who has bee
hailed as the hero of the disaster
was no hero at all, although he di
obey orders and did his duty. TIL
real hero of the disaster, Smith salt
was Jones, the fifth engineer. H
said Jones went down to fix the boi
ers so they couldn't explode just a
the vessel sank and was carrie
down with her.

GETTING EDUCATION WAS DIFFICULT
WAY BACK in THE GOOD OLD DAYS
But their schools did not 60 much

beyond that. and the impulse was
greatly weakened in later days.
The idea of universal, tax-sup-
ported school system did not really
take form in this country until the
period between 1920 and 1850. The
chief reason was the fact that the
vast bulk of the population, III The
early days, was disfranchised. Thus
the men who really needed free
schools for their children did not
have the votes to establish them;
the upper classes, which had the
votes, could afford to pay private
schools. and were Indifferent or
openly hostile to the free school idea.
But, as the country developed,
and the great open regions west Of
the Alleghenies began to be filled
up with settlers, the notion that
every grown man was entitled to
the ballot began to take hold. All
of the new states, except Ohio and
Louisiana, were organized OH that
basis, and these two adopted it .
little later. The idea spread back to
the eastern states, and in the course
of time the voting restrictions were
whitfield down until the average
working man had the right to vote.
From that moment the growth of
free schools was assured. In state
after state laws were passed appro-
priating money for schools, and be-
fore the Civil War the fight was
won.
But the story of the struggle that
it took to win that fight gives q new
light on conditions in those good Ole
days" Il makes it apparent that
that era was not the contcnted, hap
Ply, idyllic time that we sometime,
think it was. The average man.
the worker-could not vote, and HI
could not educate his children. TIT
equality of opportunity that tn,
founders Of the country talked Abou
so much was a good deal Of myth
If man were poor he had littl'
reason to hope that his children
could rise above his own level.
