Storage Bins for Wheat

ONE source OF increased income for tho
wheat farmer predicated on a prior ex-
penditure Of small amount Of money in the
construction Of proper storage bins on his farm
IN which ne can hold back part or all of his
crop II necessary.
The advantage to the farmer lies in two
factors, one the relief of congestion in the
elevators in the country and from the over
taxing OF rail facilities the other the obtaining
OF premiums for hgh-protein content
Farm storage makes it possible to handle the
grain with less hired help, to clean grain ON
the farm and at the country elevator, prevent
the need OF piling the grain on the ground
and make 1t possible to condition damp grain
before selling it.
Substantial bonuses are paid for wheat of
high protein content, but when this wheat is
dumped into the market along with the gem
eral run Of wheat at harvest time the country
elevators are unable to handle the rush in such
way as to provide segregation of the high
and low protein wheat. The result is that the
farmer loses the premium which he would
receive IL he held his wheat on the farm until
it could be marketed on its proper basis.
Farm storage would also help to prevent the
slump of prices that often follows a fairly
heavy hold-over stock OF wheat ct the time
the new harveSts are coming in

Mr.. Seyfert has no special ideas about

Men show very little originality and dis

adapted to their personalities. The average
man has no sense Of fabric and doesn't know
whether to choose . smooth or a rough mate

to choose ties which really suit them.

Is that men like their personalities, wrinkles

atty among women. On this account an
artist has less trouble In painting women when
he paints them very young or very old. Yet,
in my opinion, the American woman Is most
fascinating after she passes the napper or
debutante age.
1.-THE American woman, like the American
man, has reached a very high stage of physical
development. She IS certainly more beautiful
than the women Of any country in any age of
which we have records in painting and sculp-
ture, and she remains beautiful for q longer
stretch of years.
1T do not believe that aIertness and activity
have any baneful effect upon womenS beauty
Quite the contrary. I have observed that
women who are engaged in activities that slim
ulate their minds and keep them mentally
fresh and alert are, after the budding stage
of the debutante, the best looking.

and Canadian boundaries and will cover
the same territory as those patrols, thus
complementing the work Of the Coast
Guard on the maritime boundaries,
eliminating duplication of effort, con-
centrating responsibility for the protec-
ton of all our borders and bringing
about a more effective coordination Of
the work.
Border Survey Is Necessary.
Preliminary surveys have established
the practicability of the plan. An
actual physical examination OF our
border, however, will be necessary prior
to the final designation OF points OF
entry or the closing of trails and I'M
travelled roads. The work must be done
in harmonious cooperation with our
neighboring countries, and their con-
sent obtained as a matter Of courtesy.
1t is believed that at least six months
will be required before the new border
patrol can be organized and the pre-
liminary work completed.
The cost of maintaining the unified
border patrol will exceed the present
cost of maintaining our customs and
immigration patrols, and additional i'm
migration and customs stations will be
required. Surveys upon which esti-
mates of the increased costs can be
based are under way and soon should be
completed.

COAST GUARD FUND
BOOSTED BY HOUSE
More Ships, New Planes and
Larger Personnel Are Pro-
vided for in Bill.
BY the Associated Press.

6y the Associated Press,
Provisions were made for a larger
and more powerful Coast Guard to
carry on its anti-smuggling activities
and rescue work at sea in the annual
Treasury-Post Office supply bill submit
ted to the House today by its appro-
priations committee.
Additional ships, increased personnel,
new Seaplanes, more stations and more
cadets to fill the quota of officers are
provided for under the measure, which
appropriates 1872 123,040 for the Coast
Guard, an increase of $2,452 900 over
the outlay for the current year. OF
the amount S16.807, 100 is set aside for
anti-smuggling work and combating ac-
tivitieS of rum runners OF the coasts.
The building program, calling for an
outlay of $3.50 900, provides for the
completion of a new cutter and the COM
mencing of another, the taking over
of IL destroyers from the Navy and
the construction of S patrol and 10
picket boats. Five seaplanes are to be
bought at a cost of 100000 each, and
station is to be established at Quill
layute River. Wash. at cost of $4,000.
In testifying before the committee,
r ar Admiral Billiard commandant of
the Guard, said the increased equipment
and additional personnel allowed last
year had aided that branch to better
enforce the anti-smuggling laws, par
ticularly against rum runners, although
there had been some increase in snug
Cling along the New England coast in
recent months.
During 1929, Admiral Billiard said,
the Coast Guard seized 210 vessels
loaded with liquors, an increase Of 20.
In all, he said. his organization re-
ported or seized ASH ships for law

Admiral Billiard said that during the

Declaring that enforcement Of pro-

essary, to bring obedience, the Board
of Temperance and Social Service of
the Methodist Episcopal Church South
has come out with a broad legislative
program which would also make the
Capital City of the Nation the model
city, in respect to enforcement Of law"
The statement, issued jointly last night
by Bishop James Cannon, jr.. chairman,
and DR.. E. L. Crawford. secretary of the
board, squarely backed up the recon-
mendationS of the Presidents Law En-
forcement Commission sent to Congress
today by President Hoover and advo-
Gated passage of the Sheppard bill for
making the buyer equally guilty with
the seller of liquor.
Administration Of the law by It's
friends" and an extensive development
of an educational policy in support of
the eighteenth amendment also were
recommended: The statement called for
money to meet the need for adequate
enforcement, whatever the amount
may be-"
I'VE positively insist that when men
openly f1aunt their determination to
violate any law OF our country the Gov
eminent must suppress anarchy and

cents-$25, 100000 $50000.000, $780,

From the financial standpoint alone,
the cost of enforcement is small, COM
pared with the great economic benefits
which have come from prohibition,
even at its worst.
"In the name of the General Con-
ference we petition that the law shall
be administered by its friends. It is
a well known fact that many officials,
high and low, connected with the adj
ministration of the prohibition law
have not simply been Indifferent, but
frequently openly hostile"
Urging the passage of the Sheppard
bill, the statement said that nothing
would have as great psychological, as
well as actual value, as to put the
brand of the criminal upon the so-called
high society people. even though men
of prominence and influence, when
they deliberately strike hands with the
lowest criminals, oftentimes murderers.

While some sections of the American
people may disagree upon the merits
of some of the questions involved, every
responsible citizen supports the funda-
mental principle that the law OF the
land must be enforced.
The development of the facts shows
the necessity for certain important and
evident administrative reforms in the
enforcement and judicial machinery,
concrete proposals for which are avail
able from Government departments.
They are in the main:
/. Reorganization Of the Federal
court structure so as to give relief
from congestion.
Q, Concentration Of responsibility in
ton violations.
3. Consolidation of the various
agencies engaged in prevention of
smuggling of liquor, narcotics, other
merchandise and aliens over our from

4. Provision Of adequate court and
prosecution officials.
S. Expansion of Federal prisons and
reorganization of parole and other

I append hereto a preliminary and
a supplementary report from the Com
mission on Law Observance and En-
forcement, relating to several Of these
and other questions. I particularly
call attention to their recommended
plan for reducing congestion in the
Federal Courts by giving court COM
missioners enlarged powers in minor
criminal cases. Their discussion Of the
workability and the constitutionality of
the plan, which is concurred in by the
eminent jurists upon the commission
and others whose advice they have
sought, is set out in more detail in
the supplementary report. I also ap-
pend memorandum from the Attorney
General and the Secretary of the
Treasury upon several phases Of these
problems.
believe the administrative changes
mentioned above will contribute to cure
many abuses. Beyond these immediate
questions are others which reach deep
ly into the whole question Of the
growth Of crime and enforcement OF
the laws. The causes Of crime, the
character of criminal laws, the bene-
fits and liabilities that flow from them,
the abuses which arise under them, the
method by which enforcement and
judicial personnel is secured, the judi
cial procedure, the respective RESPONSE
bility of the Federal and State gov
ernments to these problems, all require
further most exhaustive consideration
and investigation, which will require
time and earnest research as to the
facts and forces in action before sound
opinions can be arrived at upon them.
