are expected to be retained, it was
learned today.
Inasmuch as the extension by
the President will continue ap-
pointments rather than force
workers to receive new ones, MIRA
employees will probably be allowed
to carry their accrued leave into
the extension period, it was said.
Field employees also were notified
Of the extension.
Meanwhile, with the Blue Eagle
phase of the New Deal Scrapped
by the Supreme Courts decision,
President Roosevelt turned his
attention to the work-relief pro-
gram.
Here, too, he admitted diSap-
pointments. He disclosed that a
general and perhaps sweeping re-
shuffling of the 4,O0O-million-dol-
lar public works fund may be
necessary to carry out the promise
to put 100000 persons to work
with that sum.
A survey of the amount Of
money that can be spent per
worker in order to put that num-
Der to work has disclosed, the
President told newspapermen
that many high cost projects will
have to be eliminated from the
program.
He pointed out that an average
of $1,000 must be set aside for
each man employed if 100000
were to be given work. This aver
age, however, includes the cost of
overhead and of materials. In
the case of low-cost projects this
average would meet requirements,
but in the case of high-cost prof.
ects, such as Federal aid high
ways. slum clearance, and large
rivers and harborS projects, the
average would be higher.
Although limited, the President
said these higher cost projects
would not be entirely eliminated.
They will have to be balanced,
however, by many low-cost prof.
ects, ranging about 5000 per
worker.

sioner Humphreys has no bearing
on his removal.
While Mr.. Mitchell is definitely
out of office today by virtue of
the presidential order, it was said
by Secretary Roper that his
charges against the Administra-
ton of the Department of Com.
merce would be thoroughly
probed by the Department Of
U. S. Probe Ordered
Charges of maladminiStration
made by the Assistant Secretary
to the President have been
turned over to the Department
of Justice with the request that
they be Every carefully investi-
gated" and Mr.. Mitchell has
been advised that he will be
furnished every opportunity by
that department to amplify and
substantiate his charges, it was
announced.
According to Secretary Roper,
Mr.. Mitchell was first asked to re-
sign in September, 1884. after cit
had become evident that his apti-
tudes were not along the neces-
Sary executive lines"
He refused to resign at that
time, stating that he had uncov-
cred serious derelictions in ad-
ministration of several bureaus of
the department."
Because of these charges. Secre-
tary Roper said, the request for
the resignation was withdrawn to
allow Mr.. Mitchell to substantiate
them.
Stirred by Speech
Six months later, when the data
had not been filed, the Secretary
suggested it be submitted to the
Attorney General and the resigna-
ton request was again made and
refused.
Mr.. Mitchell then filed series
of charges with the President, re-
fuSing to resign or accept another
Government post. This culmi-
mated today with the order of dis
miSsal.
Mr.. Mitchell made a speech in
Kansas City in March, 1884. in
which he urged the voters to over
throw the Pendergast machine. !"
At that time he likened the Pen
dergast organization to Tammany.
the Ware machine of Philadelphia
and the Mellon organization in
Pittsburgh. This address caused
considerable resentment in Demo-
cratic ranks.
A former Senate page boy, Mr..
Mitchell is an attorney and has
been active in politics for the
past 20 years, having been one of
the original Roosevelt supporters.

Agriculture Looks Up.
(Kansas City Times.)

thanSaS Clty 11meSD
 The farmer of the nation may not himself have so appraised the situation, but there many cir cumstances developed and developing out of which he may be drawing comparative satisfaction and increased earnings. That is particularly true of the farmer of the Middle West in such States Missouri. Gnsas and Oklahoma.
 Prices genel ally higher than they a year ago and estimated yields for the entire country are higher In respect to increased yield, Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma greatly outstrip the country in general, as shown by the July crop reports.
 The greatest improvement for this immediate area in the situation, with price 27 cents higher than last year and estimated yields running far beyond last years figures. Kansas will be the chief beneficiary among the three States mentioned, with an estimated yield almost times greater than that of 1884.
 It is estimated that Kansas will produce 76 mil lion bushels of corn, compared with Il million bushels last year. Missouri, 86 million bushels as against 26 million, and Oklahoma, 27 million, as against 12 million in 1884.
 Even wheat shows increase last year in this area. with price of 8 cents bushel higher. Kansas is expected to harvest 67ia million bushels as compared with 67 million bushels last year; Missouri 23 million. compared with g million and Oklahoma, 37 million compared with S4 million last year.
 And in wheat benefits to farmers, Kansas will receive $28,154,000, compared with 24A million dol lars last year. Missouri will receive $l93l O0O as against $169Oo0o, and Oklahoma s7,s38OOO as against $6956,0O0
 Cattle are selling $3 hundred higher than at this time last year; hogs bringing $5 hundred more, and lambs are selling at 75 cents hundred more. Pastures lush whereas they were burned brown at this time in 1894. The hay crop is markedly good
 On the other side, but operating to the advantage of the farmer also higher protein foods required for finishing livestock SIS ton cheaper than they were last year. The index price of feeds is 7847 per cent of the 1926 level In December 1884, it was 1199 per cent of that level, and year ago it was 799 per cent
 These comparative figures do not mean that the farmers of America are "out of the woods :" They do not that the farmers, in the three States of this immediate region, are back in the bumper crop era with prosperity prices. But they do show that agriculture, particularly in the Kansas City area is in far better condition gen. erally than it year ago.

Program of the Army to add 46,000 to the num- Der of officers and men in the service is expected to more than double the number of soldiers at Chilkoot Barracks.

In establishing naval bases in Alaska, there is reason to believe that the Navy is not overlooking the waterways around Juneau. Significance might well be attached to the the naval vessels are making of Aux Bay just north of the city. Several of the destroyers are passing there and two of the larger cruisers are expected to drop their anchors there this week.
 Soundings have been made and now being taken Charting has revealed the bay a favorable spot for the naval vessels and the very fact of it's location within short distance of the Capital City good road well as by water, and standing adjacent to the airport which could readily be developed into both a land and water base for aircraft places in the class of potential possibilities which may get than passing consideration when the bases eventually estab- lshed
