The situation already is acute in some dis- tricts, accgrding to the board, and production ‘In many lines is being held down, Car Shortage Blamed. Production of coal is being cur- taled chiefly as a result of car shori- age, the reserve board reports. It estmated the car supply at mines in the east at only 30 per cent of normal. Labor difficulties, while complicating the situation, are ‘considered by the board as only a minor cause or re- duced coal production. Efforts of shippers on the Great Lakes to fac te movement of coal by pooling their shipments are re- garded by the board as only a partial remedy. z No Price Slash Foreseen. In the southwest, according to. the review, Many mines are operating at only two-thirds capacity. Coal ship- ments to’other countries are reported as light. No reduction of coal prices is in sight, the board says. . Commenting on the far-reaching ef- fect of the tar shortage and freight congestion, the Reserve board state: that reports of its agents indicate that the “transportation tie-up is largely the result of the railroad strike, which still continues over a large section of the country.” The congestion is further accentuated, ac- cording to the board, by local strikes of other groups ‘of transport workers.

An acute shortage of labor on farms is reported. Wages apparently have fallen behind the ad- veance in prices and cost of living, the. ‘board asserts. 5 STORY OF SPLIT ‘BETWEEN WILSON AND HOUSE TOLD Paris, June 23.—The story of the reported break, between Col. House and President Wilson is told by the newspaper Bonzove today. Col. House, shys the paper, was as- signed the task of finding a domicile for the President in place of Prince Mirat’s mansion. The president specifically requested that his new quarters be situated in the business section. Unable to find such a location, the paper says, Col. House selected a mansion in Place des Etats Unis, near the residence taken by Premier Lloyd George, and it was elaborately furnished by the French government. The paper then says: “President Wilson raged, but was obliged to live in this house. He poured all the weight of his wrath on Col, House,” RIPE OLIVES DECLARED 0. K. ; BY OFFICIALS Ripe olives, commonly known as “Greek olives,” are sold by the carload in the community around Bismarck, according to information from H. J. Duemeland, president of the North Dakota Wholesale Grocers’ Associa- tion, and official of the Bismarck Gro- cery company, Tuesday, and have been sold throughout the period of proba- tion on ripe olives. Ripe olives came into disfavor about one year ago because of.two or three deaths which were attributed to in- sufficient sterilization of olives in glass containers. Recent examination and experi- ments by the U. S. Department of Ag- riculture resulted in finding that ripe olives in tin containers are an ex ceptionally valuable food and delicacy and in no way detrimental health, The “Greek olive” is an imported olive and is mostly sold in communi. ties where Russian nationality predom- inates. This is pac! lar to the green C ifornja olive. SOCIALISTS OF EAST STRONG FOR TOWNLEY Minneapolis, Minn., June 23.—Sigurd says eastern socialists are intensely and regard A. C.

Excellent Yield Provided Droughts Do Not Set in ' Bucharest, June 23,—Rumania’s crops this year promise to be exceed- ingly abundant, provided no drought sets in. Nearly four-fifths ‘of a corn crop has already been planted. The government hopes to be in a position te export a large quantity of cereals this year. This is expected by Ru- manians to bring up the present low value of the Rumanian franc which is about two cents. The ministr} of in dustry and commerce has entered in- to a contract with the Italian govern- ment for the early delivery of 40,000; carloads of maize. . The farmers are much retarded in! their work by reason of the scarcity of horses, draught oxen and agricul-! tural implements. None of the, farm-' ing machinery carried off by the Ger- mans has been replaced. Horses and oxen have been brought into the coun- ‘try from Hungary and Transylvania, but the number is inadequate. Much industry has been tied up by lack of tools, machnery and _transportaton. There is a fertile field in Rumania for American agricultural implements of all kinds, Thg taking of the government of all state and institutional lands and more than 4,000,000 acres of private hold- ings, for use by the peasants, is ex- pected to have a stimulating influence jon production. It is the first time in | Rumania’s history that the peasants have been given outright ownership of land. The appropriation of large pri- | vate estates by the government did | not please the proprietor classes, but it had a steadying influence on the temper and spirit of the people, who were showing distinct signs of unrest.

This apparent anomaly is due to the fact thet the board wishes to test che in- vulnerablity of a new kind of safe for use in reserve banks of the country which is now being experimented with by the bureau of standards.

FRANCE AWAITS GERMANY’S MONEY Paris, June 23.—Premier Millerand hopes at the Hythe conference, accord- ing to Marcel Hutin in the Echo de Paris, to induce Premier Lloyd George to accept the payment of France’s 12,- 000,000,000 francs gold debt to England when Germany pays France in repara- tions.

June 23.—The wheat harvest of Kansas has begun and once more Gov. Henry J. Allen has arranged for the parole of convicts to hélp gather the grain. ‘Men from the stale penitentiary and others from the reformatory will be released for the work. None of the prisoners from either! institution will be placed where there could be objections raised by the pub- lic. Last year only one had to be brought back because ot objections of the community where he was work- ing. Thé men are paroled directly to Last year extensions of time were| granted to nineteen men from the pris- on to continue working. They were allowed to remain during the wheat harvest and threshing season. About fifty men will be released from the prison’ this year and about! sixty from the' reformatory. The de- mand for men is not so heavy this year as a year ago, but the number may be increased if the demand war- rants it, Many of the men will return this year to the homes where they worked a year ago.
