WHEAT ACREAGE
FIGURES RAISED
SAMUEL HIGGINS
ESTIMATE WEALTH OF THE
STATE SAID TO BE $15,-
000.000 GREATER
OKLAHOMA IS IN THIRD PLACf
The Census Collectors D setose That
They Have Information Which Will
Show the State Has 45,000-
000 Acres of Wheat
Oklahoma City—Into the third
place of the wheat producing states i
in the nation went Oklahoma recently j
hhen reports arrived at the state '
board of agriculture front the tederil !
bureau ot the census and the state as- |
sessors showing that the state has 1,-
000,000 more acres ol wheat und->r
cultivation than ever baa been esti-
mated previously.
Illinois and Kansas are the only
two states ahead ot Oklahoma in the
production ol wheat. This state form
eriy held sixth place. The increase ot
1,000,000 boosts the Oklahoma wheat
total to more than 45.000 oOO acres.
Million Acres Lost
The 1,000,000 acres w hich has been
lost in ail previous estimate will add
to the state's wealth this year be-
tween $10,000,000 and $15,000,000. J.
A Winehurst. president ot the state
board ot agriculture said on the re
port he had expected for some tim-.
Oklahoma acreage growing wheat w-3
discovered simultaneous by the fed':r
at government and the state assessor.-
The enormous margin of gain in
who are taking a farm census under
the terms of legislation passed by ths
1919 legislature.
Ten thousand dollars was appro-
priated for the taking of this census.
The state crop statist lean and the
federal census bureau have gone as-
tray in former years according to
Whitehurst due to the fact that esjl
mates formerly made were perfected
by this method.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS IGNORED
SETTLEMENT OF YAPS
BEGUN IS REPORT
A Plan Is Proposed Which Would
Bring Forth a Six Hour
Working Day
Rail Problem Solved
The 1909 wheat crop was taken a* a
basis by federal census authorities
and the acreage percentage ol wheat
acreage increase over the entire Uni-
ted States was added from year to
year.
“The fact that states like Iowa hnv-
en't seen the astounding development
ol Oklahoma in the last ten years was
not taken into consideration.” said
Whitehurst. Our percentage of gain
was far in excess of that ot other sta-
tes.”
The discovery of the lost million
acres accounts to a great extent ac-
cording to Whitehurst lor the failure
of Oklahoma railroads to get enough
rolling stock into the state to handle
wheat shipments each year. The dis-
covery should prove real enlighten
nient to carriers of wheat and the
straightening out of Oklahoma's
wheat shipping pioblem should be the
result.

Oklahoma Exceeds Federal Aid Al-
lowance it is Announced
Washington— Direct negotiations
have been begun between the I'nited
States and Japan for the settlement of
the questions.pending between them.
These include the Island of Yap. the
immigration question, the alien land
question and the return of Shantung
to China by Japan. The negotiations
are being conducted by Baron Shide-
hara, the Japanese ambassador, and
| Secretary Hughes. The settlement of
the Yap question would make unnec-
essary the consideration of this ques-
tion by the league ol nations.
It had been expected that the Yap
issue would be left to the adjustment
by the league council, which is to meet
very soon in Geneva. The French
government, in answer to the Amer-
ican protest against the award ot the
mandate for the Island to Japan, said
it would bring the subject before the
council. It is understood that the
basis for settlement in the negotia-
tion between Ambassador Shidehara
and Secretary Hughes will be the in-
ternationalization ot the cable privi-
leges on the island.
“Japans promise to return Shan-
tung to China, it is said, is to be ex-
ecuted as soon as practicable, and and
without reference of the question to
any Eurojiean tribunal. The initial
steps have been taken for the evacua-
tion of the portion ot the province
held by the Japanese, the military
force having* been reduced. Advices
trom Tokio have said that this force
would be withdrawn as soon as China
provided guards for the railroad and
I property in the towns.

Denver, Colo.—Organized labor
Would demand that the power to de-
clare. war be withdrawn from congress
and placed in the hands of the people,
or constitutional amendment if a res-
olution presented is adopted by the
convention of the American Feder-
ation of I.abor.
The proposal provides that a decla-
ration of war must have the approval
of a majority of the voters of the coun-
try and that "all those voting in fovot
of the declaration of war be compelled
to take up the active prosecution of
..he same before those who voted
against the declaration of war.”
A resolution submitted, signed by
representatives of all railroad organiz-
ations, directs the executive council
"to assist the recognized railroad la-
bor organizations by every effort with-
in their power to have proper legis-
lation enacted providing for govern-
ment ownership and domestic opera-
tion of the transportation systems of
the Uulted States.”
Rali Operation Favored.
Another resolution presented by a
•roup of ten delegates, recommends
‘prompt restoration of the railroads to
mified government operation.” Under
'he scheme of unified operation, it was
‘tated, “freight rates should be reduc-
ed to those in force when the rail-
roads were returned to their owners,
in order to stimulate traffic and re-
'ieve agricultural and other legitimate
business.”
The central labor council of Seattle,
Washington, in a resolution called
upon the federation to “use all of its
resources to carry into effect plans
whereby a maximum six-hour day
. rhall be established and all overtime
| abolished in industry.” This action,
j ,t was stated, would relieve the
“great menance of unemployment.” by
increasing the opportunity for work.
Modification of th Volstead act so
as to permit the manufacture and sale
of “a national be\eraee of wholesome
! beer” is demanded in a resolution in-
; troduced at the American Federation
of I.abor session while still another
, urged that congress be asked to sub-
mit the question of prohibition to a
nopular vote of the people.

Independence. Kansas—Another cut
of 25 ten's in Mid Continent crude od
: was announced by the Prairie Oil &
( Gas Company bringing the new pi ice
down to $1 a barrel, the lowest since
1916.
The reduction follows a 25-cent cut
made recently. Since January of ibis
year wnen Mid-Continent crude leach

has tumbled. In 1916 crude oil Iron

of that year it started on an upward
swing.
