drop to the extent of the tax
which previously had been paid
on them Wholesale prices, how

the extent of the processing taxes.
Can farmers now show a profit
without benefit of the AAA? Ex-
perts disagree. but most of them
believe good many farmers
could show profit if present prices
were maintained.
AAA officials have always in.
sisted that with government con-
troll removed. farm SURPRISES
would quickly increase to a point
where prices again would decline.
DEMOCRATS see the possibility
- Of tremendous reaction in
favor Of President Roosevelt and
the AAA, should farm prices
slump and clamor for farm relief
once more begin to fill the air,
without adequate response from
Washington.
Prices of virtually all crops in.
creased under the AAA programs.
But how much of this was due to
the AAA? That also is a ques-
ton of disagreement.
For example, the farmer sold
his cotton at 81 cents a pound in
1888, before the AAA, and in
1885 it sold at ia cents a pound.
Hogs doubled as another example.
The AAA claimed the credit.
The opposition said drouth short.

NEW YORK. January 3l.-Earn-
ings for 1885 Of the principal manu-
facturers Of business machines are
estimated to be 20 per cent higher
than in 1884, according to the Index
Of the New York Trust Co., and with
continuing business recovery these
gains should undergo still further ex-
pansion.
"The business machine industry"
the Index says. has by no means
fully developed the domestic market
that is, the saturation point for type
writer's. cash registers, calculating,
bookkeeping and card recording ma
chimes has not been reached, and
there is also a continuing replacement
demand for machines which either
through use or new inventions have
become obsolete, while the home and
school market for such machines as
portable typewriters has hardly been
touched.
In addition, there Is unquestion-
ably great room for expansion in sales
abroad"

On or about April /. about one

worn by the child when it was kid
mapped, bright and shiny, lying in
the path about 100 feet from the
gate. Hundreds of police officials,
including the rs master minds" of
the country. reporters. etc, had been
over this path, and it seems impos-
sible to believe that this article had
been permitted to lie there during

Could Hauptmann have possibly
