CHICKENS AND TURKEYS
STOLEN FROM FARMERS
Poultry Houses of C. T. Kelley
and Oscar Ridder Raided

Charles T. Kelly, of the Mason
school community, and Oscar Ridder
of the same section of Garrett coun-
ty, have each contributed Christmas
dinners for lot of people for which
they have failed to be recompensed
much to their regret and the regret
of all law-abiding people of the Sec
ton in which they reside.
Thursday night Mr.. Ridder return
ing to his home noticed a truck bear
ing West Virginia license tag stand
ing on the roadside near his residence
and suspecting that chicken thieves
were abroad he started an investiga-
ton at his lower chicken houses, and
there found that nothing had been dis
turbed. On his way beck he passed
the spot where the truck had first
been noticed, but it was gone. The
next morning, going to his hen house
close by his home, he found that the
thieves had been there instead of at
the houses further away and he was
forty or fifty chickens short of the
number he possessed the preceding
night.
Charles T. Kelly had like exper-
fence the following morning when he
discovered that thieves, possibly the
same ones that had been at Mr.. Rid
der's, had stolen twenty turkeys from
his farm with no clue whatever as to
the identity of the guilty parties.

OUTLOOK
HELD DISMAL

Prospects for prosperity in agri
cultural fields in the near future
are far from encouraging, &C
cording to the Department of
Agriculture's outlook for 1881
which was released today.
The announcement says:
Farmers may reasonably
expect somewhat lower pro-
ductiOn costs, a probable ten
dency toward improvement in
market demand and a greater
degree of stability in general
commodity prices during 1891.
Depression Is Noted
"The situation at present,
however, is cIOuded with an
unusual combination of cir
cumStances, chief among these
being the general business de-
preston, the large supplies OF
wheat, cotton and certain live
stock products, the disturbed
conditions in various producing
areas resulting from the
drought, unusually severe i'm
port restrictions imposed by
foreign countries against agri-
cultural products and the
maladjustment of prices rela-
tiOnships accompanying the re-
cent worldwide decline in COM
modify prices"
The business depression and
drought were held by the De,
partment of Agriculture as the
principal outstanding elements
of disbursement.
Pointing out that the drought
was the most severe and wide,
spread in 20 years, the depart
ment stated that production OF
principal crops was reduced SIS
per cent below the average Of the
proceeding 10 years and that the
cost of maintenance Of livestocks
was materially increased.
Cash Crops Hit
The survey continues:
"The principal agricultural
regions all enter the 1881 sea-
son from this background of
difficulties cited. The prob
lens are intensified in the two
great cash crop regiOns-the
wheat belt and the cotton belt.
The position of both these crops
is handicapped by large world
supplies, but the general fall in
commodity prices and cotton in
particular has been affected by
the clump in industrial de-
mand."
But as a result Of the difficul
ties. the department reports, live
stock industries have benefited
This comes from the advantage
of relatively cheap grain, tht
very low farm labor wages, ant
the decline in fertilizer prices.
The Washington times., 1931-02-02
Case Opposes Bonus
Plan for Veterans

The difficulties connected with
financing large Government bond
issues to provide cash for the vet
erans adjusted service certificates
was outlined to the House Ways
and Means Committee by John
Herbert Case, chairman, New York
Federal Reserve Bank and an
officer in charge of open market
operations in Government Securi'
ties for the reserve system.
"The proposal which is be-
fore your committee involves
finding new buyers from two
billion to two and One-half bill
lion dollars of treasury bonds"
Case said.
"It is my judgment that Gov
ernment bonds in amount pro-
posed could no. be sold at the
present time except at interest
rates which would tend to i'm
pair the credit of the Govern
ment."

IN OIL
IMPORTS HIT At
HEARINGS
Representatives of Industries
Claim Embargo Will Cause
HardShips to Consumers

Opposition to any embargo on
imports of crude oil was voiced
today before the Senate Com
merce Committee by representa-.
tives of the Associated Indus
tries Of Massachusetts, the Amer
ican Automobile Association, indie
pendent oil interests and the city
of Savannah. The committee is
considering the Capper bill, which
would relieve the depression in
the independent oil industry by
limiting imports to 100000 bar
rels yearly.
Embargo To Raise Cost
Albert R. White, vice preSi-
dent of the associated industries,
said an embargo on crude oil
would cause an increase of 81
Darrell to Massachusetts, firms
which now take advantage of a
75-cent differential in. favor of
oil over coal. He said gasoline
would be increased to the con-
Sumer by 8 cents a gallon, and
asserted an embargo would cause
NACHASO' NO4OlLADAd dLlN NCALCDOC1d
to retaliate Immediately against
the New England textile indus
try. He said:
1--WE need the trade with
those countries in the textile
industry. If the embargo were
placed on oil they would imme-
diately retaliate against u.s."
To Praise Production
White predicted the embargo
would increase not only the do
mestic price of oil but would in
crease production also.
Harold Walker, of New York,
Eastern attorney for the Doheny
oil interests, speaking on behalf
of the Pan American Oil Com
pany and the American Automo-
bile Association, voiced the pro-
test for both concerns, while
George M. Rummel, industrial
commissioner of Savannah, pro-
tested on behalf of Savannah.
Senator Tydings CD of Mary
land, cited figures to show that
an increase of ST a barrel as es-
timated by opponents of the en-
barge, would cost the entire coun-
try $980,O00,OOO annually. He es-
timated the cost to Maryland
users of oil more than $70,OOO,000
annually.
