SOVIET RUSSIA GAN NOT CURTA|L
 WHEAT OUTPUT
AMERICAN DELEG TON IS OPPOSED TO QUOTA
 SYSTEM

LONDON, May 26. (P)-Indus- tral and social conditions in Rus Sia make increased wheat produc- \ ,tion imperative the Soviet dele gaton to the International Wheat Conference announced formally in declaring opposition to the Amer jean plan flor reduced acreage.
 The statement asserted that it. was the belief of the Soviet gov- ernment that each nation should be allowed to decide for itself whether to curtail the production of grain or other commodities. Fix ing definite export quotas was urg- ed as a means toward relieving the crisis growing out of overpro- ductiOn.
 The Soviet statement declared that yesterday the Americans sub- mitted a proposal which is un- acceptable to Soviet Russia be- cause of conditions in our social system with extraordinary devel- Opments in our industries and the number of our industrial workers and in view of the increased pro- duction which is necessary to meet growng internal demands. It ap- pears advisable to us to allow each country to decide for itself whe- ther to curtail production of ag- ricultural commodities and wheat in particular"
 Members of the American dele gation were unyielding in their opinion to the quota system. They took the position that the very presence of huge surpluses on Rus sia or other countries would have a distinct bearish affect on the market.
 Soviet statement carried the sug- gestion that the huge wheat stocks held in Russia is security for lad equate credits" If the quota sy- stem were adopted, the statemnt also pointed out, there would have to be provision for financing the Soviet surpluses.

Making War More Terrible

If Viscount CeciIs point Of view is sound when
he deplores failure of the London conference this
week to declare years holiday in armament build
ing-and it seems to us that it is sound-then
nouncement by the United States war department,
the day after the conference that it is perfecting
the most deadly weapon yet devised for modern
warfare, is to be regretted even more
The army's chemical warfare service has learned
how to spray deadly mustard gas from airplanes it
announces. Mustard gas not only causes LESSONS Of
the lungs, but severe burns the body. The chemi
cal warfare service says piousy that it intends
to spray mustard gas upon cities during war, only
to it actual fighting fronts where it is power
full enough to wipe out whole regiments.
The effect of the announcement will not be re-
assuring to other nations, many Of whose present
difficulties frequently have pointed out, arise from
expenditure of too great proportion of their budgets
for armament
Three years ago the United States proposed to
the world the Kellogg pact for remuneration of war
and the world eagerly welcomed it. Today, when
economic necessity offers opportunity for a practical
and even more far-reaching step toward abolition
of war; the United States is announcing more deadly
ways to wipe out fighting regiments
Since the machine gun and battleship road to
security and well being for nations has been tried
many times and has failed as often we we'll might
give thought to another to avoid humiliation

NHE chief continues to improve but it will be sew
era days before he is allowed to decorate the af-
fairs Of the day with his wisdom. Until that time
you will be forced to accommodate your attention to
our inferior brand Of merchandise
-Four hundred men and women, unable to find
work or food, storm grocery stores in HENRIETTA

nor is it province in starving China. It is part Of
US, the most prosperous nation the world has even

r.
OKLAHOMA, and all she represents in the way Of
" poverty and misery, belongs to us just as truly
as the horde Of millonares she has produced. We
dsown neither they are both part and parcel
of our god-ike indifference. This situation longer
deserves our attention, it now DEMANDS it.
For the Arst time in worlds history great ma
ton is rich enough to abolish poverty and yet it is
our very abundance OF goods and materials that clogs
the channels of trade and leaves us in want
4 TTENTION to our economic evils Is something
IA which can no longer be the exclusive property
of academic curiosity It is the greatest problem we
have ever been called upon to face, and upon its
luton depends not only the welfare and prosperity of
the country, but its very stability.
The philosophy of every man for himself will work
under primitive economic conditions but those days
are past. In age when excessive production will
plunge all the rest into confusion, it is as outofdate
as legal system Of private vengeance.
GO long as production and consumption have no
~ relation to each other other than that of caprice
and chance, shall have the paradox of wealth pro-
ducing poverty. And that paradox is not pleasant
contemplation for men forced to live on charity.
Men have right to work and make living When
we deny them that we deny them the ability to ap-
preciate the peculiar Yigtue ct our institutions.

The Uganda BOYS

The two primitive young Africans brought to
New York by the Martin Johnsons to care for three
gorllas and two chmpanzees captured in the Belgian
Congo have gone hghhat under the spell Of the siren
song of Harlem.
They have quit the straw pallets which previously
had been home to them at night in the Central Park
elephant house. Now, at their own demand they
sleep in an up-to-date suite.
few degrees removed from the breechclout, they
previously had been perfectly content-n fact, fiat
tered and honored-to sleep in the boudoir of the
Central Park elephant house. to be close to the goras
and chimpanzees day and night.
But some folk who came down from Harlem to look
at the Uganda boys charge-or possibly at the
Uganda boys-were filled suddenly with the spirit of
racial upift. The result was that the Uganda boys
in few evenings of exhibiting themselves on Harlem
stages netted their new-found friends 81 900 and
themselves 81 and pair of golf trousers each per
exhibition.
In the process one Of the swiftest transformations
in human viewpoint and human requirements had
taken place.
The Uganda boys had glimpsed the modern day
and had been filed with demand for its amenities
new clothes the new quarters taste for more select
viands,
Limited to sign language. the Uganda boys are
picking up a word or two of English
The Johnsons are sworn to the boys chief to return
them safely to Africa But after they have breathed
the undermining air of the metropolis for full two
months more the question for the Uganda chief
doubtless will be that Of the wartime song:
How you gonna keep EN- down on the farm,
After they've seen Broadway"

Bringing Prosperity

The one cure for unemployment is work The one
way to give work to the voorhees, is to free Industry
from any handicap that makes it improbable.
Under this formula the sincere groups Of citizerS
who are opposing bringing Of natural gas to the
factories Of this city may find that they have been
misled and change their opposition to one Of welcome
The position Is based upon the theory that the
Of natural gas by the various industries may IN
some way interfere with municipal ownership Of
the gas supply There is every to believe that
the opposite Is true and that the constant threat
Of a natural gas supply may soften some of the
efforts being by very greedy interests to pre-
vent the city from owning that utility.
The appeal OF the manufacturers of this city for
permission to obtain supply of natural gas is based
upon self preservation. The owners Of these factories
thrive only as the city thrives They can exist
only as they can meet competition with similar fac
tories in other cities.
These ndustralists say that they handiA
capped by lack Of natural gas which permits their
competitors to undersel them. That means less en-
ployment in Indianapolis and an economic loss.
These men, who are surely not public enemies,
state that the gas which they wish does not COM
pete with coal. but with higher priced oil fuel
and is essential to their prosperity.
The fight against the natural gas proposal is
really waged by the very interests that have tried
in this city.
The large utility interests afraid of public
ownership. It would disclose their vast profits and
probably result in rate reductions in other cities 1t
is for that reason that one Of these gas combines
bought the bonds of the old Indianapolis company,
under lease to the Citizens company. It is for that
reason that another bought at high price the ma
ory stock interest in the Citizens company and that
both working together to bring suits in the
court to delay and prevent the people from taking
over the local distributing company
Indianapolis is being made the football of high
finance. The local factory owners believe that they
will be driven out of business or at least badly
hampered because Of this fight.
The better public policy might to aid rather
than obsruct the efforts of the manufacturers give
them a fuel supply they can use and if the city
finally wins its fight for public ownership to include
the natural gas distribution in that enterprise.
This city is dedicated to the principle of public
ownership of the gas supply. 1t is also dedicated to
the preservation OF existing industries The two are
not incompatible.

A CalamitOus Comeback

Hitting at the gasoline price war, leading Los
Angeles bankers, retail dry goods merchants auto
dealers, and labor council have issued full page
address to the public, the crux of which can be put
into the two paragraphs following
eff you would pay less than fair price for services
commodities you must expect less return for your
services or commodities"
Uncertainty and prce-cutting discourage and de-
moralize promoting condition wherein nearly every
thing that is not positive necessity Is at stand
still"
Two truths so intimately associated as to warrant
marriage and settling down to happy life ever after
ward To progress to relieve or prevent depression of
any sort you've got to hold fast to the maxim Live
and let live
In business, society," any other of LIES associa-
tons, you can't make good by demanding much and
rendering little in return.
1t must be evident that one Of the basic causes for
our long drawn-out business depression lies in con-
dton wherein things that not positive necessities
are at standstl. The orgy of luxury buying is over
with, as the unprecedented hoardings in banks
demonstrate.
There is no inspiration for relief in price-cuttng
natural necessities but there is in it promotion of
continued stagnaon. Banks cut interest on deposits
to 81 or per cent. Does it smoke out the bulk of
hoardings into enterprises or extensions of bust
nesses, into bonds first mortgages and SUCH which
yield larger return than 81 or to the hoarder?
We are in what newspapermen call "the dull sum-
mer months and recently, down east, conference of
representative publishers discussed land sat down on
proposition to commit suicide by cutting advertising
rates.
That is, they refused to acknowledge that they
hadn't been giving advertisers full return for their
money refused to demoralize refused to discard the
Live and let live" principle When you get service
gasoline any other commodity at runous price
you also buy calamitous comeback on yourself.

Many Of the states are tacklng the problem indi-
vidually.
The business depression is adding to the difficulties
IN many sections farmers refusing to pay taxes
at all, and everywhere the amount Of property COM
ing into the government hands through default in
tax payments is increasing. The farm defation has
wiped out 10000 100000 of value on which taxes have
been levied although farm taxes have risen 1853 per
cent since 1914
Incomes are down. as internal revenue tax COL
lections show. The large public debts become more
burdensorne with the increased value of the dollar
Six million out Of work can not pay direct taxes
although they pay just the same through the indi-
rect levies.
Senator Fletcher quoted figures to show that the
SloooOOoooco appropriated by congress during the
last two years means average tax of $a1 on every
person IN the country $405 for every family the
average income of which is estimated at $72s.
Estimates put the country's total annual tax bill
at $1S,0o0O00000. The Governor of Illinois recently
estimated hat 119 cents out of every dollar earned
goes for taxes The Governor of oregon figured that
seventh Of the nations total income is eaten I'D
by taxes, and that interest of billion year is be-
ing paid on an Indebtedness of $26o0o0OO 900.
Figures just completed by the census bureau
show that taxpayers in cities of more than 10000
population paid $50 each on $4,000 100000 worth of
as the federal government and twice as much as
all the states. Their total net Indebtedness in
creased $300000,0Oo from the year before and ex-
ceeded $6,O00,00OO0O.
The costs Of state governments in 1929 amounted
to little more than $2,0ooOOO0oO. This compared
with $458,000,Oo0 in 1915. Total tax revenues were
1872 per cent larger than in 1921
This is of course time to decrease expenditures
for public works other enterprises giving employ
ment to large numbers of people. Nor should there
be any disposition to spend less for charities schools
public health, sanitation and recreation.
There S, however, ample opportunity for the elm
nation OF waste and extravaganza particularly in the
cities, and the of public funds where they will do
the most good And with the state and federal gov
ernments casting about for still money to spend
the interests of the workers and small salaried groups
must be guarded for their share of income already
disproportionately small.

Of weakness Of the heart after fifty
years Of age involves special en-
phasis on all Of the good rules Of
hygiene.
It is, of course, understood that
any infections anywhere about the
body will be found and removed.
If there is the slightest indication
Of some beginning breakdown of the
heart, the patient is put inmedi-
ately at absolute rest.
And that means he must be fiat
on his back in bed for at least four
weeks during which time he does
not even get up to attend to his
ordinary physical necessities, but is
given help by members Of the fam
lily or by nurse.
Tobacco is usually forbidden, but
in case a patient has too mucl. ner-
vous irritability, it is permitted only
with the greatest of moderation.

I'm July IS, 1917, Senator Will
~ liam E. Borah of Idaho de-
livered a speech in the senate in
which he warned congress and
the nation against useless expen-
ditures in the World war. He
said in part:
mo more serious situation could
confront warning nations than that
which confronts the allies at this
hour. In the minds Of some it may
not be considered wise to say so, but
the situation is here, and I am one
Of those who believe that we should
speak truthfully and plainly to
those who must pay our taxes and
fight our battles.
THE hour of sacrifice has ar
rived, and, being here, will the
senate Of the United States linger
and parley over money to go into
Fish creek, Tombigbee creek or some
other inconseQuential and worthless
waterways? Shall we rise to the in
vitations OF this solemn and awful
hour or shall we still tribe with sell
fish and inlmaterial matters as the
storm comes on?
IF our own institutions are not
at stake, if the security Of our own
country is not involved, if we as a
people and as a nation are not
fighting for our own rights and the
honor and lives of our own peo-
Pile. our declaration Of war was q
bold and irnpudent betrayal Of 3

SCIENCE
BY DAVID DIETZ

The Milky Way Is the Larg-
est Trust in the Universe.
THE worlds oldest trust is being
Il studied by astronomers.
Contrary to general belief, the
trust and merger of modern BUSH
ness wasn't invented by John D,
Rockefeller and the Standard Oil.
According to astronomers, the
Milky Way or galaxy is the Oldest
trust in the universe and it has been
practicing merger tactics for a per-
iod of years estimated conservative
ly as a couple Of million times a
trillion-
The galaxy, according to present
theories, has been growing larger
and larger by absorbing and merg-
ing with itself smaller collections OF
stars.
Astronomers are led to this con-
cluSion for two reasons.
One is that our galaxy is the
largest thing in the known universe.
The other is the structure Of our
galaxy.
Our sun is one of forty billion
stars forming our galaxy. The char
acteristic appearance of the night
sky with the Milky Way running
across it is due to the shape of our
galaxy.
The stars are distributed in a
great disk like a wheel or a great
watch.
We see so many stars in the
Milky Way because when we look
in its direction, we are looking
along the long diameter Of the
galaxy, along the hands of the
watch. When we look away from
the Milky Way. We are looking out
through the face of the watch.
