for the year. There Is apparent-

other than the tariff situation. If
the Senate rejects the Grundy

a big rise Id stock values and in-
creasing prosperity for the coun-
try during the next few months.

“BELIEVE IT OR NOT"
f|OW two Cornell University stu-

national celebrities is seen in a
news story carried recently. For
several months the collegians had
mailed signed contributions to the
newspaper in Ithaca and affixed
the name of "Hugo N. Frye."
Finally they decided to toHt the
old theory of political hokum.
They sent letters stating that a
banquet would be hold to
celebrate the birth of "Hugo
N. Frye" to many. The
result was that. Vice-president Cur-
tis, Joe Grundy, James J. Davis
and others wrote letters laudiug
the fictitious "Mr. Frye".

"While individual members of
Cornell University’s administra-
tion and factulty question the good
taste of the Hugo N. Frye hoax
perpetrated on Republican nation-
al celebrities by two students, no
disciplinary measures are contem-
plated, it was announced at the
university.
"The students, K. T. Horn,
Ithaca, and L. A. Blummer, Yonk-
ers, undergraduates, frequently
contribute flippancies to the "Mer-
ry Patch," Cornell Dally Sun hum-
orous column, signed by tho fic-
titious name Hugo N. Frye. Un-
der the pretention that the "ses-
quineentennial of the birth of Hu-
go N. Frye" was to he observed
here, they sent letters to the Re-
publican leaders. They asked for
"suitable massages" to bo read at
the memorial dinner.
"Replies, generally lauding the
fictitious Frye, and the purpose of
the dinner, were received, tho stu-
dents said, from Vice-President
Curtis. James J. Davis, secretary
of labor; Congressman Ruth
Pratt, Senator Joseph Grundy
and Claudius II, Huston, Repu-
blican national chairman. These
were read at the annual "Merry
Patch" dinner, and published in
the Sun,
"The stand taken by the uni-
versity in the case was said to be
in conformity with Cornell's tradi-
tion of free expression of views
on the part of students and facul-
ty."

IF the senate passes the Grundy

will have an opportunity to gain

•THE Grundy tariff is unfair to

Howard newspapers in all parts

Editor, The El Reno Tribune,
El Reno. Okla.
Your very much appreciated
printed statement that you wel-
comed letters from citizens, is re-
sponsible for this communication.
I vast evening you printed a let-
ter signed by Mr. Klvett, In which
he Haid that the people of El Rciio
should seriously consider proposi-
tions for providing electric service
and also asked a number of ques-
tions.
Every falrntlnded citizen heartily
agrees, | am sure, that such vital
matters should he considered se-
riously and Investigated fully and
carefully.
It Is of extreme Importance to
know that rates for electric serv-
ice are still lower in El Reno than
in Ponca City, after a reduction In
Ponca UUy was made June 1st.
And despite the difference In city
tax rates, the people of El Reno
are more than $1,000.00 per year
better off than those of Ponca City
in any comparison of service rates
and taxes on use of electricity In
the home alone, to say nothing of
the saving on current used for pow-
er. The detailed figures are read-
ly available when the public de-
sires to go into them.
It is also rather Important to
note that at Ponca City, the two
argest industries of the town
he Gontlnentsl Refinery (formerly
he Marlaud Company) and the Em
lire Refinery, are provided with
iglit and power by the same com-
pany supplying El Reno, with lines
nside the city limits of Ponca City
and one and one-half times as much
electricity Is furnished them as the
municipal plant In (hat city puts
out.
Very truly yours,
Signed: JOHN T. NAYLON.

LOCAL BRIEFS
WHAT’S WHAT IN WASHINGTON
By CHARLES P. STEWART
Central Cress Staff Writer
A SHINGTON,
D. C. — Pow-
er will vie with
prohibition for
recognition as
the dominant
laiue in the
campaign, Just
a t a r t i ng, for
next N o v e m-
ber’s election of
U. S. senators
and representa-
tives — and of
g o v c r nors, in
states where
they arc to be
chosen this
unqqlnmcmokial
year.
The power folk want the voters to
divide on prohibition.
Prohibit ion tutu, except in safely
dry localities, want tho tight to hlngo
on tho power qunstlon.
§ • • •
1IOW MUCH the tar Iff Issue
count* will drpend on tlm industrial
and agricultural situations in tho
autumn.
However, candidates realize the
hopelessness of trying to divert the
attention or u man out of a Job, or
one whose farm Is about to be fore-
closed on, from Ins personal troubles
to some other subject. Explanations
and promises may help a little, hut
hard times always are to tho disad-
vantage of file party In ofllce—there
Is no escape from it; the handicap
can only he minimized more or less,
If any. That issuo Is in tho bunds
of tho fates; not the politicians.
The power and prohibition Issues
are different from the industrial and
farm Issues. Most voters can he dis-
tracted hack and forth, between
power and prohibition.
Prohibition is so much easier to
understand that it naturally is a
more popular ls.*ue than power. Still,
t.-upably presented, power has Its ap-
peal, too. Anyhow, power and pro-
hibition am rivals.
THE CONTEST for the Uepubllcai
senatorial nomination In New Jersej
already demonstrates the politicians
strategy.
Dwight W. Morrow Is the wet can-
didate. It must be very distasteful
to an individual of his type to hav«
his ability and everything else sub-
ordinated to his wetness. Just the
name, he cannot help It. Opposition
to prohibition Is his best issuo—New
Jersey being wet New Jersey.
But It Is not Joseph 8. Frellng-
huyson’s best issue, as another can-
didate for the Jersey senatorial nomi-
nation on the G. O. P. ticket He
always was a dry hitherto. So all
Mr. Frelinghuysen did was to modify
his former prohibition position slight-
ly and then shut up about It—and
proceed to wage his fight on the
Issue of stricter regulation of Jersey’s
public utilities; the power Issue.
Franklin Fort, to bo sure, Is a dry,
but his game is to squeeze In be-
tween Mr. Morrow, as a wet, and Mr.
Frelinghuysen, as a regulator of the
power Interests, on the chanco that
the odd votes will nominate him.
• 0 •
IN PENNSYLVANIA we find Gif-
ford Pinchot campaigning for the
governorship on tho power regula-
tion Issue. Mr. Pinchot Is one of the
dryest drys In the country, but docs
ho mention tho subject? Not Mr.
Pinchot—in wet Pennsylvania! As
a dry, power la his issue. But his
opposition ticket? Myl we shall not
hear a word about power from that
side of tho fence—but a great plenty
concerning prohibition's failure.
In Montana, n few works hence,
we shall behold the ultra-dry Senator
Thomas J. Walsh, tip for re-election,
giving Hail Columbia to the power
Interests—and, trying to beat him,
these same Interests’ reputed good
friend, Judge Albert J. Oalen, de-
nouncing prohibition.
In Nebraska?—who but 84-year-
old Aaron C. Head!—roasting the dff
regime but ignoring the power folRim
while bohe-dry Senator Norris tern
Into the power companies but never
notices Volsteadlsm.
Ami everywhere else ditto.
It will bo as good a light between
prohibition and power ns between
any two of tho best-matched candi-
dates.

WASHINGTON, June 12—(LF)
—Radio 16 playing an increasing-
ly Important part in the help ex-
tended to the 6,000,000 American
farmers by the United States Ag-
riculture Department.
Through broadcasts over nation-
al and regional hook-ups, reach-
ing virtually every farm home
with a radio receiving set, the de-
partment is able to make imme-
diately available to growers ev-
erywhere the latest discoveries by
its scientific experts.
In addition many Items of
homely advice on care of the home
and farm, including preparing
meals and raising vegetable gar-
dens, are broadcast dally to thou-
sands of eager farm listeners.
Urograms are broadcast dally from
Washington over the National
Broadcasting Company’s circuit
from 12:45 to 1:80 eastern stand-
ard time.
Three methods are used in pre-
senting information by radio to
the nation’s farm population: 1
Direct from Washington over a
national hook-up; 2. By Syndicate,
i.e., material is mailed local sta-
tions who broadcast for their
particular regions; 3. Through
branch offices of the department
who maintain close relations with
their local radio station.
The department maintains 12,-
000 miles of private leased tele-
graph wires for the gathering of
information relative to produc-
tion of all leading crops and is-
sues, crop reports from time to
time estimating the production,
telling stocks on hand and acres
planted. In placing this vital in-
formation In the hands of farmers
promptly so It may he utilized to
fullest advantage radio has proved
of inestimable value, officials
said.
Urograms broadcast consist, in
addition to crop and weather re-
ports, of scientific data of all va-
rieties, methods of preventing
pests, information about caring for
livestock, etc. The broadcasts
are arranged so as to be absolutely
up to date, and are adapted to the
seasonal work on the farm. K Is
the department’s belief that each
of the 1,500,000 farms having ra-
dio sets llsten-in either regularly
or occasionally to Us program.

Peanut hulls, now regarded as
a farm waste and worth only $2
a ton for fuel, may soon be a com-
mercially valuable product
through the researches of two Ag-
riculture Department scientists.
Research has revealed the pea-
nut hulls, of which 70,000 tons are
accumulated annually, as a
source of cellulose. It Is consi-
dered probable they may be util-
ized to supplement cotton Unters
and wood pulp In America’s ra-
pidly growing cellulose industries.
It Is only a matter of time, the
chemists declare, until depletion of
the forests and resultant scarcity
of wood pulp, together with the
rapidly Increasing demand for a
cheap, high-grade cellulose, will
make present sources of cellulose
Inadequate. Peanut hulls, be-
cause of their cheapness and avail-
ability, are believed to offer
promising source of cellulose for
the future.

tion and tact can hi obtained by

VV/HICH were the flrat units of
W the United States expedition-
ary forces to bo landed In Europe?
The war department states that
ths first United States army unit
to go abroad for the World war was
base hospital No. 4, which sailed
from New York May 8, 1917, and ar-
rived in Liverpool May 17,1917. The
first division was the pioneer com-
bat force of the American army In
France. The various units left New
York City June 12, 1917, on three
transports nnd arrived at Bt. Na-
zalre, France, on June 26 and June
28. 1917.
Named for Washington
Was the stato of Washington
named after George Washington?
When the bill creating tho terri-
tory of Columbia was Introduced into
the thirty-second congress, the name
was changed to Washington because
of tho existence of the District of
Columbia, and in honor of George
Washington.
Worn Out China
Why don’t the Chinese move back
inland instead of staying in such
crowded conditions on the coast?
Due to deforestation the soil of
China has become so poor that It is
almost impossible to get a living out
of it in the interior. Then tho trans-
portation facilities are so primitive
that they ars Inadequate to carry
peoplo and food to the Interior In
sufficient quantities to encourage set-
tling Inland It remains to be seen
whether science can devise Improved
agricultural methods and transports-
tion facilities, which would enable
China to support its rapidly Increas
Ing population.

Andrew Bonar Law
Who was Andrew Bonar Law?
Ho was a famous British states-
man bora In New Brunswick, Can-
ada, Kept. 16, 1868. He was the son

a Conservative. He became leader
of the opposition in 1911 and prime

Old Ironsides
How did the frigate Constitution
get its name “Old Ironsides”?
During the historic fight with the
‘‘Ouerriere’’ the cannonballs rebound-
ed from her stout oaken hull as
though they had hit iron and thus
earned her the name “Old Ironsides ”
