I; CONGRESS AND THE FARMERS (No ground exists for hope that Congress at this session i will enact laws for the relief of farmers. Members of both houses who atlthe last session stood as champions'of the farmer refuse to approve recommendations which are practicable. : This is the situation:" The commission which President Cool idge appointed.,. last December' is composed of the' beads of . farmers' organizations educated, thorough going dirt farmers .who have made constant study of marketing problems. They " formulated specific recommendations which the president ap- proved and submitted to the law making body. The champions of the fanner in Congress look with disfavor i on the recommendations made by the practical farmers who i are not in politics. . TJic farm, bloc at the last session were obstructionists. ', Their objective was re-election rather than genuine relief. ; : Once more they are obstructionists. They hold to economic ' theories which cannot be converted into facts through legisla tion, but their theories are popular with distressed farmers : who have been led to believe that Congress is able to provide a panacea for every economic ill. At bottom, the - difference between the farm bloc and the , agricultural commission which employed good sense in that one plays politics all the time and the, other, divorced from ; politics, devoted itself intelligently and exclusively to the solu tion of a vast economic problem. ' " .1 ' -'. !AnotheVfeatruiT'ot "the "-present -impasse is .'that -the- farm r bloc together with other members of Congress insist, upon an early extra session of the new Congress which the administra- tion opposes. President Coolidge believes that any practical relief could have been extended at the present session. He puts upon Congress the blame for failure to take action. , The time ' until adjournment is so short that relief appears to be hopeless. Portland Telegram. , ' . - RUN DOWN THE FIRE BUG ,' A national movement looking to the suppression of arson, which accounts for a large property loss by fire' in the United ' States, was" inaugurated by the National Fire Waste Council at its last meeting in Washington. Arson is difficult to prove but in some cities by special effort have succeeded in reducing the number of fires attributable to this source. -In- Detroit the number of incendiary fires in 1921 was 111. This was reduced to 59 in 1922 and 30 in 1923. This improvement was partly due to the establishment of an arson squad" composed of detectives of the city police department who make a prompt investigation of all fires suspected of being . of incendiary origin. The fact that arson is prevalent is proven by the insurance statistics, if. no other evidence was available. The number of fires is almost invariably larger when business is bad than when it is good. , It has been found, too, Jhat closet fires in apart ments are often of incendiary origin. Some persons liaye been known to use more than once manufactured "evidence of loss'' ' in the form of partly burned clothing and furs. ...'. ' A committee of three has been appointed by the National ; Fire Waste Council to study the arson situation and . recom mend methods of attacking the evil at the next meeting of tne council in March. - THE PENMAN OUTDOES THE YEGGMAN ' One hears much about bank robberies and little about forgeries of bank checks and other negotiable papers but insur ance investigatorsfind that the penman lakes from banks and their depositor? twenty times the toll taken by the ycggnian. 'The' loss through forgery 'or alteration of checks, notes, drafts, bills of exchange and trade acceptance, says the depart ment in. a bulletin. Recently issued, has been placed by various conservative . authorities somewhere between fifty and one hundred million dollars a year. ' ' ' "From the busincss"inan's viewpoint," live bulletin continues, "the problem of forgery lias two, angles prevention and in demnification against the possibility of loss." , There arc various .Mechanical appliances designed to make forgery difficulty such as prepared, inks and paper and check writing machines. . Various rules arc also suggested to mini mize -the danger of forgery. ; J-li.it forgery insurance is com paratively new having been devised only about five years ago. There -arc four different policy forms in use which .are explained in detail in the bulletin. Two of these, the depositors' forgery policy' and the '.commercial forgery policy, are for in dividuals and business concerns1 and two are for banks, the one a limited the other a blanket forgery policy.

HINT NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON. Feb. 1 1. Even .president can pull n "boner," Which is . exactly what President Coolidge accomplished during the call at the White House a few days ago of 300 officers and privates In the 'Coolidge-Arniy of New Jersey." This Coolidge Army is an ex clusively feminine outfit.,,, Perhaps because of this, it didn't- seem strange to Calvin that arrangements for the call were not made through regular political channels. Instead of having the meeting framed through their senator or congressman, "Generol"' J. Mabel Brown and Mrs. Louis Thompson made the arrangements themselves direct with the White House. '.. Finding the ' delegation of Ne Jerseyites on. his program, it seem ed to Coolidge that the occasion would be made more noteworthy if the Republican senator from that state wr,8 included In the pjrty. - -So a phone call front the White Houai asking Senator Edge to run up and join the president In shak ing hands with his constituents. - a i Had tho president been at all psychic, he could not but liava not- Iced the constraint with which the ladles of tho "army" greeted their senator. ' i However, he seemed to sense noth ing wrong. And when the handshake Ing was over, the president, putting an atm affectionately across Edge's shoulders, told bis visitors that he wished they'd pledge themselves to see ttiat New Jersey soon sent down another Republican senator "like Senator Edge." Had the president kept himself up-to-date on the luternnl politics of New Jersey, be would have known at -once that the "arm" had Intentionally maneuvered so It would owe Edge nothing In con nection with its call on thj presi dent. . ' Ho would hnvo known' that this Coolidge Army" In the last cam paign fought just as, h jrd to de feat Edge for re-election ui it did to re-elect Coolidge. Under the circumstances, fur Coolidge to tell tho ladles that toe finest thing thoy could do would be to send down another so-'itor 'ilke Senator Edge" mndo an al ready embarrassing sllUJtioo still m'oro to.
