MUST LIMIT POTATOES
OR ACCEPT LOW PRICES

Present indications are that North
Carolina Irish potato growers will
lose heavily on their 1886 crop unless
they reduce it by 80 per cent or
more, says E. B. Morrow, extension
horticulturist at State College.
Basing his statement on figures
supplies by A. E. Mercker, secretary
of the Interstate Early Potato Com
mtmittee, Morrow said that the an
ticipated crop of $500 carloads
would probably sell for $1,5OO,OOO
less than the cost of production.
But if the crop is limited to 5000
cars, he added, the growers stand in
position to clear over $1,100,0O0
above production costs. In other
words, a reduction of $500 cars will
put $2,B00,O00 into the growers
pockets.
Some growers have expressed in
tentions of producing big crop this
year In order to establish as large a
base as possible, said Morrow, who is
executive secretary of the North Car
DINA Potato Growers Association.
But Morrow pointed out that the
potato advisory committee has re-
quested that the base period be
193O-34 inclusive, and it is not likely
that the 1885 crop will have any
affect upon the base average.
Furthermore, he said, there is not
enough chance of the 1885 crop af-
fecting the base, though a special ruI-
ing or otherwise, to justify the grow
-ers producing big crop this year at
heavy loss.
Among the advisory committee re-
Communications are: determination by
the secretary Of agriculture of the
advisable size Of the annual crop to
be marketed so as to maintain a par
ity price; flexible basis of allot-
ments to States; tax Of half a cent
a pound on all potatoes marketed
which are not covered by tax-exemp>
ton certificates; transference Of GER
tifcates between growers when desir-
ed, and referendum on the plan
after it has been in force one year.

COOLIDGE TO HAVE MEMORIAL
TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS
ANSWERED AT COLLEGE

+ u. e I. III
Question: Should scratch feed for
chickens be fed in hoppers or in the
litter?
Answer: There is some divergence
of opinion on this matter, but for
sanitary reasons it is advisable to
feed scratch in hoppers. Under ordi-
nary conditions, litter is not changed
frequently enough and quickly be-
comes polluted with coccida worm
eggs and possibly disease producing
bacteria. Every practice that reduces
the possibility of the birds ingesting
such material is to be commended:
hence hopper feeding.

Captain Cutting Rumored for Deputy Superintenden,
BILL FORMULATED
 FOR HORSE RAGING
Senator Joseph LawIOr Expected to Make Third
 Try for Endorsement

Legalization of horse and dog racing in Connecticut is to be pro- posed in . bill to be introduced during the present session of the state legislature. Senator Joseph H. LAwlor of this city introduced horse racing bills during the 1881 and 1893 sessions. Both measures failed of passage. It is expected that he will introduce racing bill this session.
 Latest reports are that if horse racing bill is introduced, and 1t is a most assured fact that suclP a measure will be offered, a clause in the bill will call for legalized dog racing also.
 Under the provisions of the bill, a state commission of two or three members would be set up to ad- minister the law and heavy license fees would be charged for race meetings. Comparatively small fees would be charged, though, for racing at agricultural fees. The pari-mutuel system of betting would be provided for in the law and a state tax would be levied on all bets.
 Mayor Frank Hayes appeared in favor of the horse racing bill two years ago. Herbert Smith, local "" secretary, was among those appearing in opposition to the pas- sage of the bill. The MI was rec ported on favorably by the judici- ary committee, passed by one branch of the legislature and de- feated by the other.

Bandit Gangs Haue
 71u0 Fierce Battles

Surrounded, the leader, carrying a sub-machine gun, committed suicide before police could reach him. His companion surrendered.
 The Other Battle
 Ocklawaha, Fla, Jan. 16.-UP) Federal agents and Marion coun- ty officers today killed two gang sters in a protracted machine-gun battle at @ house here. The slain men were believed to be Fred Barker, midwest desperado. and a man named Campbell.
 It was estimated that more than 4,000 shots were exchanged. Short ly afternoon firing ceased. Hostili- ties had opened at a. m.
 A totalsof 25 officers participat- ed. After the firing ceased, they crouched behind cover, keeping guns levelled on the house.
 Three hours after the battle started the fighting was reported severe with federal agents attempt ing to gain the upper hand by ust of tear gas bombs.
 Reports said some members o1 the gang were hunted in connec- ton with the Kidnapping of Edward c. Bremen, St. Paul banker. An other was sought for the staying of a Missouri sheriff.
 A dozen or more officers, includ- ing federal agents and sheriff S deputies from Ocala, surrounded the gang in large frame house near the Oklawaha Inn, 19 miles from here.
 At the Oklawaha Inn, a woman resident described the fighting.
 "The shooting started about 2 a. m.," she said. "and is still go- ing on, three hours later.
 Both the gang inside the house and the officers outside are using machine guns"
 "The officers have been throwing tear gas into the house without re- suit" the informant continued.
 "A man named Blackman and Q woman he said was his mother have been living in the house for about two months.
 "Others have been coming and going all the time. Several are sup posed to have come in last night few hours before the officers rafded the place."

GOLD ISSUE HAS BEEN LIKENED TO
 CIVIL WAR DAYS
Decision to Be Rendered By Supreme Court Just
 F. as Important
BY JOHN A. REICHMANN United Press Stan Correspondent


 Washington, Jan 16. (UP)-Stu- dents of the role which the su- preme court has played in admin istering justice and shaping the destiny of the United States see it's present position in deciding the gold cases as the most important since the confused and stirring days which led up to the Civil War.
 One group foresee in an adverse decision in the gold cases the fol- lowing results:
 Every person holding a gold bond contracted for prior to the time the United States went off the gold standard--and there are esti- mated to be $100,000,000,000 of such securities-would have to be paid $1.69 for every dollar owed.
 Every debtor under one of the bonds would have to pay $1.69 on the dollar, leaving him just that much less to meet other creditors. This implies less for dividends, less in wages and salaries for workers, and less to spend for the purchase of goods and supplies.
 The governments monetary poli- Cy WOuIu DC WFeCReu dS ldT dS lIs beneficial affects on debtors,
 The government would go into any future international currency stabilization conference with it's hands and feet tied to a gold stand ard which other nations have abandoned.
 The other school believes that the court rarely says that things cannot be done. It believes usually the court says you cannot do this thing under the constitution in the way you have tried to do it. You must do 1t some other way, if you wish to accomplish the result"
 They also feel that the court, in deciding issues. generally gives a hint as to how it may be done con- stitutionally-even though it may mean revising the constitution.
 It is also worthy of note that the court need not necessarily rule that the debts contracted for in gold dollars of 25.S grains nine- tenths fine must be met in curren- cy each dollar of which is equal to

MADAME PERKINS
 WANTS OWN BATH
 IN NEW QUARTERS
Despite All Opposition the Labor Secretary Is to Get It
BY LOUIS JAY HEATH United Press Staff COrresDOndent)

United Press Stan Correspondent) Washington, Jan 16.-(UP)--
 Feminine shower modesty tri-
 umphed over republican efficiency to-day.
 When Madame the Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins moves into her magnificent new headquarters 10 days hence, she will have sole use of her glass-d bored, pastel tinted shower. She won't have
 to share 1t with any men, not even Charles E. Wyzanski, Jr., her so-
 licitor general, who was to have
 had the privilege of that shower
 room.
 It seems that when the late
 William Nuckles Doak, labor secre- tary under Herbert Hoover, was
 planning the new labor building,
 he figured on Q men-only or- ganiZation.
 He laid out the suites of the
 secretary and the solicitor next
 door to each other, separated by
 communal bath room. Then
 Hoover was defeated, Doak died,
 the New Deal arrived-and the architects went ahead with the original specifications. The whole labor department
 was about ready to move into the sum ptuous new headquarters, when Miss Perkins learned of the bath
 room arrangement. She said
 no. The architects argued and
 the contractors fought, but Miss Perkins kept on saying "no". She didn't mean maybe. She said her shower, with seven
 needle sprays, soft-tinted tiles, full length mirrors and frosted win dows, was for her use, and for
 her use alone.
 The architects took her at her
 own word. The moving order
 was upheld. Carpenters ripped out the door
 leading from Wyzanski's office to
 Madame Secretary's bath. They
 replaced it with q brick wall, two feet thick. That satisfied Madame
 Secretary, but not Wyzanski. Not
 that he wanted to bathe in her bath, he merely wanted to bathe-- somewhere.
 So the contractors staked out q cubbyhole in his sanctum and erected therein another bathroom, rivaling Miss Perkins in splendor. Everybody's happy now. Two baths will spray in privacy. There's plenty of hot water and Madame Secretary won't have to knock on her own bathroom door before en- tering.

Commissioners Not
 To Take Action On
 Appointment To-day
No Important Business Slated at This Afternoons Ses Public Support Favors Chief Inspector
 Keegan, Captain Carson and Lient Mulvile

i, uty would make necessary the pro- motion of one of the police dee partment's nine lieutenants- to the rank of captain, which would mean another battle for promotion. The only previously mentioned candi- date for deputy who is not a cap tain, is Lieut.. Mulville. Should Lieut.. Mulville be named, 1t would mean no promotion to lieutenant for any one of the It sergeants, for the police department is already over-manned as far as lieutenant cies are concerned.
 Public reaction to the choice of Capt. Cutting is prob1ematical. Since his recent police career has been confined to night duty he is not as we'll known to the public as Chief Inspector Keegan, Captain Carson or Lieutenant Mulville, each one of whom would probably have more public support.

 Speaking for his National Union of Social Justice, the priest told 100 representatives of agricultural and financial organizations that tour present predicament has been brought about as a result of mone- tary difficulties"
 He called upon congress to Gre cover its constitutional powers to regulate the value and coinage of money, and added that:
 Unless you do that, you are in- viting revolution"
