FARM BILL FOES
SEEN BEATEN
IN HOUSE
BilIion-DoIIar Allotment Plan
To Pass With Many Addi-
tionS, Say Leaders

Passage of the billion-dollar do
meStic allotment plan Of farm
relief by the House was predicted
today by Democratic leaders de-
spite stubborn opposition.
The critical stage of the fight
revealed the farm bloc" arrayed
against representatives of the
great consuming mass of indus
trial workers in cities.
The measure was being strongly
supported by virtually all of the
representatives of Western and
Southern farming interests, while
it was aSsailed by spokesmen for
virtually the entire Atlantic Sea-
board industrial section with aid
from other industrial centerS.
Wide Field Covered
While sponsors were disappoint-
ed over the sectional log-rolling
which added many products to
the benefits provided in the origi-
nal bill, the additions aided the
chances Of the measure for House
passage.
AS it stood today the bill pro-
vides benefits for producers Of
wheat, cotton, hogs, tobacco, rice,
peanuts and dairy products. The
last two products were voted in
the measure over the protest Of
Representative Jones CD Of
Texas, chairman of the Agricul-
tur Committee.
Under its provisions, a tax
would be levied upon professors
and presumably passed on to the
conSumer-to give the farmer
higher prices for his percentage
Of domestic consumption Of the
products named.
While advocates claimed the
bill would raise agricultural prices
and thus aid the entire country,
opponents said the industrial
workers would bear the burden.
Packers AssaiIed
As the measure was 1rried to-
ward final passage, leaders Of
the farm bloc" continually as
sailed the packing interests, who
were charged with signing farm
ers' names to kilograms of pro-
test.
In q letter to members Of Con-
gress, Lem Harris, Of the Farm
ers National Relief Conference,
declared:
Congress has completely ig-
nOred the principles put for
ward by the farmers. On the
contrary nothing has been
done, the Congress has con-
Cerned itself with SO-called re-
lief plans which would work q
burden not only on the city
consumers but on the great
majority Of farmers rs well"

KILLS IS
SPANISH REDS

MADRID, Jan. IL GN.S0.
Nineteen suspected anarchist and
Communist agitaCors were slain
today when civil guards bombed
and fired upon q house in Ca
sasviejas, province Of Cadiz.
It was the most serious single
incident reported since the wave
Of revolutionary agitation began
to sweep Spain several days ago.
One civil guard was killed and
five wounded, three seriously, in
an exchange of shots preceding
the bombing. Another guard who
had been held as a hostage by
the Communists was seriously
wounded.
The bombing demolished the
radical headquarters as well as
adjoining houses. Firearms,
bombs and ammunition were
found in the wreckage.
Reinforcements were expected
from Jerez, Seville and the city
Of Cadiz in view Of the posi-
bility Of further outbreaks.

years old.
Returning from Europe, Morse
was convicted Of misapplication
of the funds Of the Bank Of
North America and became a
prisoner at the Federal peniten-
tiary at Atlanta. Ga.
Morse bitter lily resented his
prison sentence and declared that
he had been sacrificed by po-
litical foes" Hardly was he be-
hind the bars than a battle be-
gan to get him out, and before
long President Taft released him,
as an act of executive clemency,
on the representation that he was
suffering from three incurable
diseases and could not live a
month if he remained in prison.
That was 20 years ago.
Bought Way Out?
Eugene v. Debs, several times
Socialist candidate for President.
and himself a wartime prisoner
at Atlanta, asserted in articles
written under his name that he
had been told in Iprison that
Morse bought his way out" and
had promised to make the men
rich who got him out Of Atlanta.
A few years before his sentence
to Atlanta, his Fifth Avenue home
had been seized for debt.
Following his release, Morse re-
manned in Seclusion for several
years and was next heard from in
connection with Ship-building ac-
tivitieS during the World War.
These ultimately led to a new in
dictment against him, in 1922,
when he and his three sons, as
well as several other persons,
were charged with his conspiracy
and embezzlement in connection
with his war contracts.
The case was kept from trial
for four years, and further delays
were asked on the ground that
Morse was q paralytic.
Morse never was put on trial,
because of his two paralytic
shocks, and remained at his home
in Bath during the proceedings,
which ultimately resulted in the
freeing Of all the defendants.

PLAN TO QUALIFY ga
FOR TITLE GOLF PLAY

BY the Associated Press
n FEW YORK, November 49,
A proposal that the number
V of qualifiers for the nation
al amateur golf champion
ship be increased from 80 to "a
probably will come up for discussion
when the Executive Committee Of
the United States Golf Association
meets here November %, it became
known tonight.
No definite action has yet been taken,
but it is known the plan has been
informally discussed by responsible
officials. Under the present system,
the national amateur field usually
is restricted to $50, the majority of
whom are required to qualify in the
sectional qualifying round. The
first two days of the championship
proper then are given over to two
18-hole. rounds, the low 80 qualify
ing for match play.
Under the system now proposed,
the low "a would qualify for match
play with the survivors facing four
18-hole match play rounds before
reaching the 36-hole semi finals
Proponents of the change believe
the tournament loses much of it's
popular appeal under the present
system by which the qualifiers play
only two 18-hole rounds Of match
competition.

Boys Club Puts on Campaign

~ NE sure way to create more

Y ! youngsters, in the opinion of
Charlie Reynolds, director of
athletics at the Boys Club of Wash
ington, is the formation of more neigh
barhood teams. And Reynolds has a
plan up his sleeve which may cause g.
marked increase in the number of indie
pendent basket ball quints this Winter.
To encourage the formation Of more
court teams from various neighbor-
hoods, Reynolds will throw open the
Boys Club court. one Of the city's finest
and most spacious to all teams. They
either may compete in huge Boys
Club League or. if preferred, limit their
activities to learning more about the
game.
Each team may receive personal
coaching If they SO desire Reynolds,
assisted by several members of the Boys
Club unlimited team, will tutor the

youngsters.
Present plans call for three nights a
week to be set aside for competition in
the league, which is classified in 100,
lis, 1870, las and unlimited sections.
THE remaining three nights Of the
week will be devoted to nom
league basket ball. On these
nights school" will be in session and
young basketers seeking more court
education may get it in class and in
formal competition.
Only two requirements are made. The
first Is that the boys must become
members Of the club, at nominal cost
the second that the name Boys Club
must be used for each team. Each
team must prefix its name with Boys
Club
To further explain his plan, Reynolds
will hold general meeting OF all boys
interested in entering teams Wednes
day at 7:30 O'Clock, at the Boys Club,
located at 230 G street.
