Fred C. Nelson, U. 8. Army air service, fuces arrest on a charge of “driving, killing, and capturing a Canadian goose from and with the aid of an airplane.” The unusual complaint was filed by Federal Game Warden Barmier upon complaint of citizens of Calla- way county and &fter a federal war- rant was issued ofr the aviator here yesterday. Nelson was flying with a passenger on October 31, 1924, when, it is alleged, he drove his plane into a flock of geese, the pro- peller knocking one of the birds to the ground. It is further stated that a landing was made to recover the goose. As Missouri game Jaws do not cover the case, federal authorities were call- ed in. [Weather Report j Temperature at-7 a.m. ...

Jardine Fears Overpro- duction If Present Plant- ing Plans Are Followed _ Washington, Oct. 21.—UP)—Point- ing to increasing foreign competition in the wheat market Secretary Jar-! dine in a statement today told Amer-j| ican farmers that they “may wisely | look beyond this year while seeding or preparing to seed for next year's wheat harvest.” “From intentions expressed by the farmers it appears that the prices for wheat at the beginning of the season were causing them to plan to increase the area seeded,” the secre- | tary said. “It is mainly, however, a partial crop failure, which has te- duced the production of many classes of wheat below domestic needs, and which, together with the tariff, has caused farmers to receive prices somewhat better than at the begin- ning of the season last year. “It “seems probable that the mar- ket has already completely discount- ed all the bearish factors in the wheat situation for this year. Wheat May Be on Export Basis “As stated in the outlook report issued by the department in Septem- er, if farmers carry out expressed tentions to plant more wheat and realize normal yields, all wheat next year may be upon an export basis and have to meet competition in for- clea markets without tariff protec- ion “Foreign competition is increasing. In Europe the countries that were af- fected by the war are recovering. The area sown to all grains in Rus- sia is estimated to be 194,000,000 acres compared with 186,000, 000 eee last year and 126,000,000 acres 1921.” This shows ‘a marked ere ery since 1921, The area «in wheat is not separately reported, but is apparent that it must be recovering rapidly and that large Russian ex- ports may soon have to be reckoned with Wheat Area Above Prewar Average “In the meantime, competition in other exporting countries has — in- creased enormously. The wheat area of Australia, Argentina and Can- nda is now more than 50 per cent above the prewar average, These facts should he carefully considered by farmers in planning for wheat production in this country.” {\ olidge was an influential factor in Roi iason’s until the November, Va senator will be named to complete the dire March 3, 1929. iused by the death of until the next regular election. add, tor such power, although t cee pect for government h | HEARINGS: j came: here by train from ‘the north, AP) — : ur R.

The New Schedule The new schedule, upon which the committee now is informed the treasury bases its estimate of a $140,000,000 cut in the income tax revenue, would start the normal tax at one per cent on the first $3,000, with 3 per cent applying on the next $4,000 and 5 per cent on all over $7,000, The schedule also sets out proposed new surtax brackets, start- ing at 1 per cent on.incomes of $13,- 000 to $15,000 and reaching a max- imum of 20 per cent on all over $150,000. Business rgpresentatives appear- ing yesterday asked reduction of the surtax rate on income, repeal of the estate and gift taxes'and repeal of the income tax publicity provision. For the most part the committee heard arguments for the proposals without comment, what questions there were being directed chiefly to the proposal for repeal of the estate tax. Committee members appeared doubtful of the wisdom of such a scheme, pending enactment of uni- form inheritance laws by all states. Jamestown Police Arrest Transient With “Canada” Booze Jamestown, N.

H. H.

Mr. Thoresen will be the personal representative of Gov, A. G. Sorlie, who was invit- ed to attend the hearing but is pre- vented from doing so by the press of official business. Because the matter is one of tax s because of Mr. Thoresen’s familiar- ity with tax questions the governor designated him as his representative. One of the important question be di; ed at the hearing is that of abolition of federal inheri apa taxes, leaving that field of taxa to state governments.
