CAPPER MAKES LAST
WHEAT POLICY PLEA.
Urges Grain Retention by Board
Before Leaving for
Kansas Home.

Senator Capper of Kansas made
final appeal today to the Federal Farm
Beard to announce a definite policy not
to sell any of its wheat holdings for
four months. before leaving Washington
to return to Kansas.
"Such a policy, If adopted" said
Senator Capper. would be of great
benefit to our people In Kansas and in
the West. I have urged, too, that the
board sell none of its wheat until the
price has reached at least IS cents a
bushel."
The Kansas Senator said he had had
no assurance that anything would be
done to meet these requests, the board
still adhering to its announced policy
not to sell at existing market prices
and not to sell more than 100000
bushels Of wheat in any one month
during the coming year This policy.
Senator Capper holds, does not meet
the situation at all. with wheat down
to so cents a bushel.
1t Is understood that Senator Cap
per had an opportunity to discuss the
wheat situatien with President Hoover
during his visit here.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., July g.
Bishop William j. Hafey of Raleigh. N.
C.. yesterday told the Catholic Daugh-
tiers of America women are foregoing
the laws Of God In order to buy fur
coats and luxuries" He referred to
propaganda favoring birth control and
quoted a magazine article saying in
telligent college women are not having
more children than they can afford"
Asserting that many people in the
United States are getting into a pa
ganistic state Of mind, Bishop Hafey
said We are reaping what has been
sown. Catholic women must not sit
idly by and do nothing. They must
settle down to hard thinking and give
this problem q great deal of consid-

He urged the organiza ions maya

clared such magazines were examples
of immoral literature now flooding the
country.

EDUCATION MAKES
STUDENT OUTCAST
Russian Studying in U. S. Be-
comes Man Without Coun-
try on Graduating.
Nv the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Calf,
July 3.-The elation that comes to the
college graduate RS he is handed his
diploma is not for Paul NJ Narbutov-
skin and perhaps hundred more Rus
sian students in the United States.
For them the hard-worked-fo degree
means not that the world is now my
OYSTER" but that II am now q man
without q country"
Graduation terminates their student
status under the immigration law ana
makes them subject to deportation.
Deportation Serious.
What deportation would signify Is
largely a matter for the individual i'm
agination, but for Narbutovskih, son of
an anti-bolshevist merchant, it would,
he says, most likely mean something he
doesn't care to contemplate.
Members of the faculty at Stanford,
believing Narbutovskih'S case Is typical.
have investigated every possible official
channel with view to clearing up the
ambiguity Of the positions (of these
students). but to no result"
The students, Narbutovskih declares,
cannot become citizens. Many of them
dare not go back ia Russia. and most
Of then. do not want to, Nearly all Of
them are anti-bolshevik.
Hard to Get Jobs.
Although they feal that a benevolent
administration of the immigration law
may save them from immediate depor-
tation. there is no assurance they will
not eventually be required to leave the
country. This indefinite status makes
It difficult to obtain employment
A representative of Stanford who has
been endeavoring unsuccessfuliy to OBJ
tain some official action which would
clarity the status of these Russian ref
ugees and so make their futures more
secure declared that these youths are
good material for American citizens. "
and expressed the hope that when their
situation becomes generally known some
way will be found to remedy 1t.

Statistics compiled at Harvard University
prove that Americans are talest among the white
races Of the world. And every generation they
are getting taller, heavier, and better looking.
Which raises an interesting question: Is the
American type approaching that Of the Amer
