yu SUPERINTENDENT IS MEAN, INDIAN SAYS ON WITNESS STAND Senatorial Investigating Com- mittee Hears Request to Remove J. R. Hammitt Minnewaukan, N. D., July 20—(®) —Charges, that J. R. Hammitt, su- perintendeht of the Fort Totten In- dian reservation, “acts mean” were made toa senatorial investigating committee today by Bernard Two Hearts, a reservation Indian. Two Hearts asked that Hammitt be trans- ferred from Fort Totten for that rea- son. ‘Two Hearts charged that Hammitt is disliked by the Indians, that he re- fuses to discuss things with them and when asked for information loses his temper. Many of the younger men drink ™ heavily and government policemen are unable to handle the situation, Two Hearts said. Hammiit, called as the first wit- ness, said there is some drinking on the reservation but that moral con- ditions there are better than on most of the Indian reservations in the country. Immorality Rampant Denying this Two Hearts said im- morality is rampant and that there are many illegitimate children. Senator Wheeler of Montana, who with Senator Frazier of North Dakota is conducting the hearing, appeared surprised when Hammitt testified that the government allows only $1.06 a month each for rations for old In- dians on the reservation. “That amount is perfectly absurd,” ‘Wheeler said. “I don't see how they can live on it especially in this cold country.” Hammitt suggested that the ration allowance be increased to $5 a month but Wheeler said he felt $10 a month would not be too much. Refuse to Work Hammitt said that many Indians who do not farm,~ particularly -the younger oncs, refuse to work at any- thing. Two Hearts corroborated this statement, saying a majority of the Indians refuse to work even when they can find something to do. ‘Young Indians can find work out- side the reservation, Hammitt said, but refuse to leave their own people and are content to live off their par- ents. Two Hearts said he farms 80 acres of wheat and has some cows and chickens. Approximately 40 per cent of the Indians are afflicted with tuberculosis, Hammitt said, and the government doctor and nurse are unable to give adequate treatment in all cases. The hearing is expected to end late this afternoon. TRADERS RUSH IN; WHEAT GOES DOWN Scurry to Gather in Profits of Week Wipes Out Nearly All’ Gains on Market Chicago, July 20—()}—Wheat trad- ers rushed in to gather their profits today and the scurry to sell drove prices down 3% to 3% cents a bushel, wiping out all but five cents of the week's sensational advance. July wheat rested at $1.34, September at $1.37% to 1.38 and December at $1.44% to $1.45. The market was nervous through the session, starting a little lower * than the previous finish and then jumping upward on the bullish news. ‘The close of the short session, within a fraction of the bottom mark for the day, left wheat at a level only 3% to 5 cents higher than the close a week ago, which had established a high record for the season and start- ed the five day swing upward. Corn also declined, losing from 1% to 1 cent and closing at 98% to % for July, $1.01 to 1s for September and 95% to % for December deliv- ery.

But not now, and if you doubt it, ask any of the pilots in the Safe Aircraft Competition that’s being held at Roosevelt Field on Long Island. The spectacular stunts that have made many a plane world famous are as simple as flying a kite in a summer breese—compared to the re- quirements for a perfect score in this contest, sponsored by the Daniel Guggenheim Fund for the Promotion of Aeronautics. Most remarkable, perhaps, is the complete lack of anything spectacular about the tests. There are no loops, spins, wing-overs or any other stunts concerned. In fact, the idea of the whole thing is to discover what most closely 8. “fool proof” airplane—one which may be safely used by the average man for much the same purpose that the average man now uses his automobile. Would Preve Safety Said Harry F. Guggenheim, presi- dent of the fund: “The success. of commercial aviation will be assured on the day that the public can be convinced that the statistics, but by actual demonstration, that airplanes are inherently no more dangerous than steamships or railways. Neither Guggenheim, Colonel Charles Lindbergh, nor-any of the other aeronautical experts connected with the competition have any pre- conceived ideas of just what the ulti- mate fool-proof plane is going to be. The Guggenheim Foundation is not interested in the commercial exploi- tation of the winners, but will spend “more than $150,000 to discover them. Anybody, anywhere, with any kind of a heavier-than-air machine that will fly, is welcome to enter the competi- tion—but mighty few of the craft, if ne which can be flown with saf Foundation Ma To Find Plan tain Bender; Edward Warn o f Pointers for the , Efficient Farmer | eee The best time to cut oats is when it is in the hard dough stage. If cut before, the grain is not well filled, it shrivels in cutting and is light in weight. If allowed to become fully ripe before cutting, a considerable part of the crop shatters out and is lost in harvesting. To get the most and best-quality seed from a sweet clover crop, har- vesting should be done when about half the pods are black. If the first growth is allowed to seed, the stalks will be very tall and coarse and hard |to handle. When the field has been grazed until the last of June, or a hay crop has been taken, the second growth is less coarse and the seed ripens more evenly, Laying hens need mash during the | summer months to keep up good egg | production.

After the breeding season is over a boar's feed should be reduced so that jhe keeps in good, thrifty condition. Only a small quantity of corn need be given him, the main feed being mid- dlings or shorts, oats, or a little lin- seed meal, with the run of a good | pasture. To reduce danger of bloating, cattle and sheep should be given a good fill of dry feed, particularly roughage, be- fore they are turned on green fc such as red clover or alfalfa for any length of time. Dew and rain increase the danger of bloating.

As time rolls on, it becomes more and more manifest that Chrysler performance can't be copied —that only Chrysler engi- neering and Chrysler manufacturing methods can produce Chrysler results. Chrysler results are uncopiable because Chrysler engineering is of an entirely new school of thought, because Chrysler ingenuity is free from the hindering and hampering influence of out-dated and hide-bound traditions.
