KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July

at the Shannon House Inves-

Cancellation of European war

tribute little to relieve the worlds

(D) of Tennessee asserted today.
Hull declared economic isola-
ton through high tariffs is the
principal cause of the difficulties
of international trade. The war
debts, although amounting to
about $11,O00,000,000, are re-
latively small compared with the
annual expenditures of European
nations and with world trade, he
said.

U. S. Officials AssaiI
Carey for "Scare"

The Grain Futures Act Com
mission today formally accused
Peter B. Carey, president of the
Chicago Board of Trade. of mis-
leading the public relative to the
suspension of operations of the
board for alleged violation of the
grain futures act. The commits
sion includes Attorney General
Mitchell, Secretary of Commerce
Lamont and Secretary of Agri
culture Hyde.
The Commission declared:
"The officers of the Board of
Trade and their lawyers know
quite well that in the end the
operations of the board need
not be suspended. If they are
making any public statements
on the subject, they should re-
assure the grain trade instead
of creating uneasiness by state
ments as to the injurious ef-
feet of suspension of the
boards operations.
Soaring Business
cit is to be hoped that the
boards president, to discredit
the administration of the law,
or to satisfy some antagOnism,
has not gone SO far as to make
unfOunded predictions creating
business uneasiness."
The Commission pointed out
that Congress provided that grain
exchanges must allow farmers
cooperative associations II pro-
ducers full privileges of trading
on exchanges in compliance with
certain conditions. The Commis-
sion, after a hearing, found on
the facts and the law that the
Chicago Board of Trade had
illegally denied trading privileges
to the Farmers National Grain
Corporation.
Appeal Can Be Taken
An appeal may be made of the
commissions order suspending the
Board of Trades operations. If
the appeal is taken, the commits
sion said, the suspension order
does not become effective unless
sustained by the final decision
of the courts.

guards always say the prison.
ers are taking in order to es,
cape work. | want to tell my
story, just to show how wrong
they can be.
1 was sent to the road camp
near Florosa, Fla, in March,
1881. A Captain Willis com
manded it. One morning I had
terrible cramps and felt sick all
over and I stayed in bed. The
captains yardman ordered me to
work. I got up and went out to
the fence and told the Captain I
couldn't go to work because I was
too sick. He hollered to the
walking boss to put me in the
sweat box.
Sweat Box "Cure"
They put me in the sweatbox
on a Wednesday morning and
kept me there until Thursday
night. That was SO hours straight.
On Friday morning, he made me
go to work, even though he
could tell I was sick by merely
looking at me. I worked on the
road a while but got so weak I
had to lie down. He made me
lay there on the edge of the
ditch all day in the sun until the
gang went back to camp that
night.
On Saturday morning, the next
day, l stayed in bed. I was just
too sick to move. The Captain
came in, cursed me, and ordered
me up, but I wouldn't get up. I
didn't care what would happen
to me. I was that sick. So
finally, he said he would get the
doctor.
When the doctor came. my
stomach was puffed out, like I
had a big ball under my shirt,
and 1t was as hard as a brick.
Anybody could see I was sick and
suffering. The do tor took one
look at me and ordered me to the
hospital right away.
Operations Follow
My intestines had grown shut.
They operated on me at once.
I've had four major operations in
all and they think will have to
have another. I was operated on
three times at Pensacola and once
at Chattahooche. That's how
sick I was and all I got from the
Captain was punishment.
They beat boys, too, at that
camp. One morning, while was
in the sweat box, the guards
brought in two boys about 9
o'clock. I couldn't see them but
I could hear them. heard the
Captain say to guard:
Throw your gun on them.
want to attend to them"
Then I heard the boys shrek,
so I knew he was tending to them.
Both boys we're thrown IN the
box after they were beaten. They
told me the Captain had beaten
them with his pistol.

STOCKS DEPRESSED

Market Again Breaks Under
Fresh Burst of
Selling.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 4.-Relentless
liquidation pressed down today on a
stock market unwilling or unable to
absorb it. with the result that the
averages went into new low ground not
simply for this major decline, but lower
than in the 1921 depression
The market was faced with nothing
new in the way of adverse outside news
at the start of trading today. The
weakness was due rather to the
cumulative effect of proposed tax legis-
latlon, of the continued failure of trade
to improve and of prospective dividend
omissions and reductions. The market
was an orderly affair The losses. except
in such volatile stocks as Auburn Auto
were not large and were impressive only
because they came on top of so many
other declines. but they were discourag-
ing and they attracted almost no OUT
side buying. The decline, however, was
so general as to suggest that it was
approaching climax.
The offerings did net look like pro-
tessional operations Tor the decline.

liquidation, although there was doubt-
