Visible Supply of Wheat in The
World

Now the American grain agencies are in receipt
Of bearish news that the world stock Of wheat In sight
increased ~27.000.O00 bushels last week. bringing the
total to the staggering figure Of 4l3.343. 900 bushels.
Last year at the same time the worlds visible supply
was 393. 493. 900 bushels.
Russia is said to be in desperate need Of money to
pay foreign bills and Is selling wheat and other food
stuffs below cost. Russia is said to be chartering ships
wherever its agents can lay their hands upon them
Three hundred vessels are said to be chartered In the
last month at English ports And the Russians are
selling grains at any sort Of price they can get and
this probably will continue for two months more" AS
it is, the Russian bear is giving the British lion a lot
CT trouble and the American eagle is flying low TO see
what it is all about" There is a lot Of fiction en-
halmed in foreign correspondence and foreign market
reports these balmy fall days.

by a supply that exceeds demand-but in every city
in the world you could find dozens Of people who do
not have enough clothing to keep them in good
health.
Nor is that all. Producers of various kinds, from
farmers to manufacturers. complain that they are
not able to make money-but retail prices remain
high. The price OF bread, for instance, has not fol-
lowed the price Of wheat down the ~tohoggan. The
farmers hard luck is not the consumers gain.
Somewhere back Of all this there would seem 60
lie a major defect in our machinery Of distribution.
From foodstuffs to radios, from blankets to sewing
machines, mankind at last is able to produce far
more than enough to 90 around: but this ability .E
beginning to look more like a curse than a blessing.
What Is the answer? AS Senator Reed remarks,
1T is a question which demands the best brains not
only Of our country but Of the world"

A Defect Somewhere

Senator David A. Reed OF Pennsylvania complains
that the greatest material need Of civilization IS ?

hard to see why ne should think SO.

economic depression, in which all countries arc faring

1.-The worlds history when it had the capacity 10 pro-

men all over the world need.
Yet. because Of some defect In the machinery

humanity can meet all Of its wants. simply operates
TO make a bad situation worse. and a great many
people. scattered all the way from the United States

Rubio AS a Moral Uplifter

An American correspondent in the city Of Mexico
writes his newspapers that an active campaign
against gambling has been started throughout the
republic. that gambling house licenses are being can
celIed as rapidly as it is deemed ~expedient and no
new permits arc being issued. Speaking Of labor u
is said that the view Of the prime minister OF Mexico
is that the seasonal employment Of Mexican field

viewpoint with which they return to their own coun-

Butte Knows Where to Find His
Hat

1t was a favorite saying Of Uncle Davie CulberSon,
statesman and one OF the great constitutional lawyers
OF his age that his son. Charles. always knew where
to find his hat" In other words when he faced
the political stump in the middle OF the road he
walked around II.
DR.. George G. Butte knows where to find his poll
teal hat. He had been officially designated as tho
republican nominee for the office OF governor OF
Texas. He declined the honor. He stated that a more
available candidate could be found. He spoke hope
fully Of the republican cause and the republican sue
cess in November the country over.
Then he placed his political hat on his head and
caught a train for the capital Of the nation where he
holds a very lucrative federal position and his social
and political lines are cast in pleasant places.
Mike Fl. Thomas OF Dallas. erstvhile a cotton king.
was the nominee for lieutenant governor. He headed
the republican electoral ticket in Texas in 1923 and
lead the Hoover democrats to the promised land. He
was not politically inclined this year, so he handed
the nomination to the Creaser committee which was
a hint that another patriot should be given the honor.
Politically speaking this may be a bad year for repub-
licans the nation over. Politically speaking II will be
a worse year for the democrats should they capture
the new congress.
All the economists and business wizards are pre-
dieting a return Of good times in the fall Of 1881 or
the spring of 1882. Truth is. that Minority Leader
John n. Garner OF Texas has assured his fellow NOR
tails that there will be a return Of good times in the
fall of 1891. A republican president and a democratic
conrress would make it easy for the brainy leaders
of the republican party to hold the democrats and the
donkey responsible for all the ills that had afflicted
the people since the close Of the World war.
As for DR.. Butte. he winked his other eye, ne grabbed
his political hat. he turned his face to the east after
passinv on TO the republican leaders the JOB OF pick
ing a Moses willing to make the race to a finish.

Judge Decides Girls
Can Stav Out Late

CHICAGO. Sept. 27-P-Fif-
teen-year-old girls can stay out
nights until 2 o'clock in the morn
ing. and Il Is all right. circuit Judge
J. Lynch has decided.
James r. Sequin had asked the
court TO take his i5-year-old
daughter, Margaret. from the
custody Of her mother. from whom
Sequin was divorced two years ago
He cited the fact that Margaret
had been out until 2 "a. m. the
night before Labor day and that
on another occasion she and two
girl friends and q sailor didn't get
home until i:30 q. m.
He petitioned the court yester-
day to place the girl IN a school
where she would be strictly super
vised.
II won't do It." said Judge Lynch.
Girls Of today do things like that
and they are good girls. too. NY
own nieces stay out as late as that
And as for the night before Labor
Day. I'd have stayed out that late

IN the record OF failure and cor
ruption we have one lesson that
marks righteous purpose In high
places. The story Of Josiah. an
eight-year-old boy. is an inspiring
story OF reform.
From this we passed TO n OF the
supreme prophets Of Israel. a mar

The lessons OF the quarter have
attained a climax In the study Of
the story OF Jonah-a story that

the teaching Of the Old Testament
concerning God. Jonah comes be-

prejudice that has always been

teaching OF the writer OF the book
OF Jonah who lifts US to higher
