From the Kansas City Sta Kansac has 32,000 acres planted in broom corn this year, compared with 16,000 acres harvested last year, ac-| cording to the report of the state statistician of the federal department | of agriculture. The six states that produce 95 per cent of the country's broom corn sup- ply have a total area of 416,000 acres planted to this crop, an increase of 159,000 acres, or 60 per cent over the 1922 area.

Taking issue with President Hard- ing’s address at Hutchinson, Kans, Senator Fletcher, democrat, of Flor- ida, & member of the farm bloe, said in a formal statement today that whatever recent legislation has been enacted of real benefit to farmers had come from a combination of democrats and republicans, in the face of opposition by the administra- tion. Wherever the administration has Intervened, ‘“under pressure.” de- manding some relief for the agricul- tural population, Senator Fletcher asserted, “the method and effect of that intervention has been to weaken or destroy the benefits Intended to be_accomplished.” Paying tribute to the “farm bloc,” the Florida senator said that but for “their energy and insistence,” many measures er would have been written into law or put fnto effect, “and now we have the spectacle of the leader of the party and the ad- ministration claiming credit for that work.” Referring to the President's refer- ence to deflation, Senator Fletcher said: “The President must know that de- flation was not the policy of the former administration. That adminis- tration. it is true, had set about checking inflation, but the facts are that toward the ciose of that admin- istration Mr. McCormick of Illinois introduced a resolution in the Senate, which. in_effect, called on the Fed- eral Reserve Board to increase read- justment rates and check further credits and bring about deflation. “It was a republican policy, pure and simple, and the deflation that hurt took place under the republican administration.” Regarding the statement that “prompt steps were taken to put the Federal Farm Loan Board back into business,” Senator Fletcher declared: “The facts are, the Farm Loan Board did not have to be put back into business. It always has been in bus- iness since the measure passed by the democratic Congress and approved by a democratic President creating the farm loan system became the law. “The President speaks of the bene- fits to agriculture, for which the ad- ministration may claim whatever credit it can, arising from the emer- gency tariff faw. i “In the first piace, if one examines the statistics he will find the price of agricultural products generally de- clined after the enactment of that T the next place, wherever the prices were higher. if there were any cases, it will be found that the farm- ers suffered a terrible burden as a legislation by reason of the increased cost to them of all the supplies and things they needed to purchase. 3 NATIONSRENEW TANGEER DISPUTE Territorial Differences Be- tween Britain, France and Spain Now Untimely. BY HAL O'FLAHEERTY. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1923, LONDON, June 28.—Aat a moment when European affairs are in a most critical position with two -of the principal powers just beginning competition in airplane construction the old territorial dispute between Great Britain, France and Spain over their respective rights in Tangler, that ancient seat of war controlling the western entrance to the strait of Gibraltar, again presents itself for solution. Friday experts represent- ing the three countries involved meet in London to make preliminary ex- aminations and to study treaties and conventions made in the last twenty vears. Internationalization Favored. Great Britain has long desired a policy of internationalization for Tan- gler,” viewing with considerable anx- iety any attempt on the part of Spain or France to use the city as a mili- tary or naval base. France has par- tlally agreed to internationalization, and ‘before ‘the opening of the world war in 1914 had prepared o treaty with Great Britain along this line, but now seeks to vest authority in the Moroccan sultan, operating,, of course, through the French protec- torate ‘authorities, Spain refuses to forget any of her legitimate claims in Tangier, and has instructed delegates” to the London conference not to consider any plan involving Spain’s withdrawal. Th with France challenging the thesis of internationalization, with Spain flatly refusing any modification of her | rights and Great Britain standing out alone for the co-operative scheme, little hope exists of a real settle- ment. Tho problem may be referred to the league of nations. Debris Could Girdle Globe. | From the Topeka Capital.

Morse, his three sons and four others charged with con-! spiracy to defraud the government in connectlon with war-time _contracts. Book_after book was resorted to by J.H. Kerman and Norman C.

Mr. Kernan resides in Baltimore and was an investigator for the fleet corporation. He declared that after the government had permitted the Virginia Shipbuilding Corporation to place a bond issue of $2,000.000 on its plant at\ Alexandria it advanced $239,541.90. “taking a second mort- gage on the plant. On cross-exam- ination by Attorney Nash Rockwood the witness admitted the money was all disbursed for labor and materials. Mr. Fininger was an auditor for the srporation and told of ad- vances made to the Groton and No- ank plants under a second mortgage on those properties in January, 1919, These advances from the Shipping Board totaled $86,357. Mr. Rockwood developed, on cross-examination, that $14.500 of this amount went to the receivers of the Groton plant by court order. He then took up each of the amounts expended and showed that the money was spent legiti- mately. 6.0.P.OF5STATES | LAYS PARTY PLANS Chairmen and Woman Vice Chairmen Meet at Cincin- nati With J. T.

In- deed, he was as much a hustler as any twentieth century son of a mil- lionaire bewitched by a front row Follies charmer. Washington was in his twenty- sixth_year when, taking dinner at a triend’s home, he met young, pretty and widowed Martha Custls. Wash- ington skipped half his meal and gulped the other half. He could fix none of his attention on eating be- cause he had concentrated it all on the alluring widow, whose invitation to tea that evening he fervently ac- cepted. He left her home late that night only to appear there early the next morning. Before noon they were en- gaged, and in a few days the “knot was tied,” Martha in silk and satin, laces and brocade, with pearls around her throat and in her ears—and jeorge in blue and silver trimmed with scarlet, and with gold buckles at his knees and on his shoes.

POSTMASTER HITS Fight for Branch Brings Bothersome Appeals for Losing Bidder. Postmaster Mooney struck at an- other form of “outside influence” to- @ay, following his statement Tuesday calling attention of the employes of Washington city post office to thc civil service regulation against such practice. Today he had a postal inspector take up personally with a local mer- cLant the whole question of the lat- ter's retention of a branch post office in his store, another merchant in the neighborhcod havirg underbid him for the brench. Scores of letters have reached Post- master Mooney in behalf of the man who has had the branch office, the letters coming from lawyers and others who have asked the retention of the merchant as a postal worker. Award to Lowest Bldder. The local post office asked for bids, under postal laws and regulations, an another man bid some $300 below the price of the man who had the station, Under the regulations, the post office has no alternative but to give the branch office to the new low bidder. So many letters have come to the post_office, however, in the interest of the first man that it has been found impossible to answer each one and tell the writer the above facts, and so the inspector was sent to the man today to, tell him to call off the “propaganda,” if there is any in rela- tion to the matter. The situation provides a new angle to Postmaster Mooney's order of Tuesday, which is being commended widely in the public service, and by the employes of the post office them- selves.
