Farmers Face Money Famine
Change Urged in Loan Laws
(By raited Nawa)
. Chicago, : Sept 30. Thousands of
American farmers face bankruptcy be
cause of their inability to pay their
share of the mora than $1,000,000,000
in farm loans which fail d-ue between
now and March 31. according to Presi
dent T. O. Howard of the American
Farm Bureau federation.
To prevent what Howard: declared
would be a national disaster the farm
bureau is now calling its 1,500,000 mem
bers into line for an attempt to per
suade congress to raise the 'limit of
federal land bank loanat from 110,000
to $35,000 before January 1. -
, In such an amendment to the federal
farm Joan act Ilea the only salvation
of thousands of hard pressed farmers.

If effected It will enable them to
convert the short term loans soon to
: fall due, roost of which are la the
' form of firs year mortgages, into Ions
term per cent government loans with
amortisation proxisions. The govern

CLUE IN DOUBLE
MURDER IS FOUND
New Brunswick, N. J.. Sept. i30.
U. P.) Discovery of an important
clue, probably leading to the arrest be
fore night of a man alleged to be in
volved in the Hall-Mills murder mys
tery, became known today.
The suspect is a man not hitherto
mentioned in the ease and previously
regarded, as a person of no importance.
Preparations are going forward to
day for the autopsy to be performed
upon the body of Rev. Mr. Hall. The
order for exhumation was mailed last
night to Supreme Court Justice Was
servogel in Manhattan for his signa
ture. Governor Edwards has directed the
New Jersey state police to assist in
Vmntine down the murderer of the Rev.
Edward W. Hall and Mrs. Eleanor
jiillK. Governor Edwards made this
announcement in response to a letter,
received from Charlotte Mills, 15-year-old
daughter of the murdered woman,
asking him if he could not help find
the person who killed her mother and
Rev. Mr. Hall two weeks ago.
Though belated, the autopsy report
on Mrs. Mills' body, confirming strong
rumors that the entire truth had not
been revealed in the regular coroner's
report, aroused interest in the case
to a higher pitch than it had reached
at any other , time since the bodies
were first discovered.
The Investigators have concluded
that Mrs... Mills' body was mutilated
by a freajgiied person to make doubly
sure of Bftigi death after the shooting.
This adchea? strength to the theory
that 'jealousy- aa the motive for the
crime, rather than robbery, blackmail
or the resentment of spooners over
a chance Intrusion of the minister and
the sexton's wife.

banks, the federation hopes, will be
cut from 350,000 to 325,000. if , it is
not, found possible to eliminate them
from the federal farm loan system en
tirely. "Farmers who enlarged their oper
ations during the war years " of 1917
and 1918 by making loans on their
farms at war valuations are going
bankrupt," Howard declared. "In thou
sands of cases farmers have not even
enough to keep their farms going. This
is especially true in the sections which
re usually considered the most pros
perous. They are worse off now, in
spite of the bumper crops, than , they
were last year or in any year since the
war. They cannot pay their debts next
sprtng, Instead of repayment' their
debts must be funded and in many
cases additional credit must be found.
Jn many cases the federal farm loan
ha proved its worth to the farmers in
the five years of existence. A co
operative institution, it has provided
money in small- funds, below 310.000
at a lower rate , of interest and haa
made Inroads on landlordism and
profiteering.'
"What is needed now la an enlarge
ment of Its scope. A farmer who is
operettas a farm of more than 180
acres, needs more than 310.000 capital
to finance It properly. Instead of the
old high rate, short term loans of
private banks, ne needs a long term,
low interest loan, with amortisation
previsions. -

toward the replacement -of the dormi
tory at the stater idust rial school for
girls. which was gutted by fire last
week The walls of the building were
left intact by the fire. It is proposed
to begin construction work on the
building at once with a view to com
pleting the building by the first of the
year. At present all of the girls in
the institution are housed in the new
building under crowded conditions.
The state penitentiary came in for
$34,000 for maintenance of the institu
tion during the remainder of the blen
nium. This emergency is occasioned
by the material increase in the prison
population since the last appropriation
was made. At that time the needs of
the institution were based on a popula
tion of 325. Today there are 453 pris
oners in the institution.
An appropriation of $19,500 for the
state training school for boys was au
thorized to meet maintenance demands
and $16,000 for the state school for the
deaf for similar needs. At both of
these institutions, it was pointed out,
the original estimates were too low
and necessary repair work has exceed
ed the budget rovisions.
The Eastern Oregon state hospital
was allowed $1200 to cover transporta
tion of patients' to the Institution.
The board also authorised $10,000 to
the state sanitary livestock board to
meet Indemnity claims for livestock
condemned by state inspectors. , Dr.
W. H. Lytle. in presenting this claim,
pointed out that the appropriation for
this board had remained unchanged
since the creation of the board 10 years
ago. The last legislature in making
the biennial appropriation included ap
proximately S6000 of unpaid in-
demnities from the previous bieriium.

The decision came like a, thunder
bolt to the Tiernans and their friends,
for it was clear-cut.
it comprised six typewritten! pages
of legal paper and Judge Qucomb
made it distinct that he found Poulin
"not guilty" of the accusation- made
against him by the wife of Projf. John
P. Tiernan of Notre Dame university,
in her confessed story of a scarles love
romance with the haberdasher.
Judge Ducomb stated, however, that
he believed there had been intimate
relations . between Mrs. Tiernan and
Poulin
The fact, however, that Professor
Tiernan had lived with his wife
throughout the entire affair created
the reasonable doubt that made it le

EDITOR FINED FOl!
CRITICIZING JUDGE
Des Moinen, Iowa, Sept. 30. (U. P.)
Austin Haines, editor of the Des
Moines News, was fined 31 and sen
tenced to one day in jail for contempt
of court by District Judge Hume here
today. Haines was cited - for con
temnt several weeks aeo as the result
of- an editorial published' last June, inv
.which he criticised the- phraseology of
Judge' Hume's decisions- ,
In the 'editorial HiijieiS . declared that
the bpinions of Judge- Hume reminded
him of the "labored-efforts of a village
smart aleck." He accused the judge of
being "intoxicated by the exuberance
of his own verbosity."
Haines.' attorney was granted . 10
days inVwhich to prepare an appeal!
The defense argued that Haines'
article did not criticize the legal merits
of Judge Hume's - decisions, . nor his
methods in arriving r.t them, but
merely the. language used.
There' are limits, even in America,
beyond which newspaper editors are
not allowed to go," Judge Hume de
clared in his decision finding Haines
guilty. ..
Citing" his experiences with skuuks
and ' newspaper editors, the judge de-'
clared he had the impression that the
former are "chevaher bayards" in
comparison .with the latter.
The opinion to which. Haines made
particular, reference as .in. a .case in
volving repeal of a streetcar ordinance
and substitution of another. - The judge
asserted Haines- proposed- to "get even":
for intimation in the franchise 'opinion;
that the clty three newspapers were
well favored In the matfer of "adver
tisements by a "propaganda commit
tee." - . .....
"Aithot-eh' it is hoped that this mild
fesince may In the future change i!i4
pofcCbly -improve-the to.v of the' Jj-j
fendant's editorials," Judge Hume said,
"it need not necessarily interrupt his
occupation nor the continuity of his
great .work."
