If the league of nations is made an issue in the election he says he will vote for the party that stands for the league. In response to requests that he dcclare allegiance to eitier ode or the other of the great political parties, Mr. Hoover said: "I am being urged by people in both parties to declare my allegiances to either one or the other. Those who know me, know that I am able to make up my mind when a subject is clearly defined. Consequently, until it more definitely appears what the party man- aBere stand for, I must exercise a pre- rogative of American citizenship and deoline to pledge my vote blindfold. "I am not unappreciative of the many kind things that my friends have advanced in my behalf. Yet, I hope they will realize my sincerity In not tying myself to undefined partisan- ship.'* $1 Day Urged for Wets."

LANE TO RETIRE MARCH 1 Both President and Secretary Express Regret at Serving Relations. Washington.--Presldent Wilson ac- cepted, effective March 1, the resigna- tion of Frank)in K. Lane, for nearly seven years secretary of the interio Letters exchanged between the presi- dent and Secretary Lane, which were made public, indicate that good feel- ing marked the retirement. Both the president and Lane expressed regret. Lane resigned, it is understood because it was necessary for him to earn more money than a cabinet officer's salary. Among those being mentioned are Alexander T. Vogelsang, first assistant to Lane; 'James Hawley of Boise, form- er governor of Idaho, and ex-Senator Iohn F. Shafroth of Colorado. Many Weltern senators, it is understood, favor Vogelsang.

Purchase of grain at the government fixed price, estimated by the report to total 85 per cent of the Washing- ton state crop of 42,00,000 bushels in 1919, by about half a dozen large grain concerns is char$ed by the re- port, which declares that by purported sales of grain to sac other and through "manipulation of the grain market oentered at Minneapolis0" ad by other methods, they have advanced the price to about $1 a bushel above the government price. The grand Jury recommends that President Wilson issue a proclamation under the wkea guarantee act, fixing a selling pries for all wheat now held in the United States at the price paid to the farmer, plus a reonable carry- ing charge and that a etmllax price be fixed on flour and mill feed. It further recommends that no appro- priation be made by congress to fin- anoe wheat sales to foreign countries until such time as the American peo- ple are relieved from paying the ex- tortionate prices now required of them by reason of grain manipulation. HOUSER SAYS CHARGE FALSE Grand Jury Acueetlons Are Declared Ridiculous. Portland, Ore.M. H. Houser de- clared there was no basis whatever for the allegations made by the Spo- kane grand Jury. "He said: "The allegations made by the fed- eral grand Jury at Spokane are un- true. The whole thing is a misstate- anent and distortion of facts. The charges are ridiculous and absurd and they cannot get figures to substantiate them. They simply don't know what they are talking about. "The average price paid to the farm- er for hard wheat was far above what the grand Jury claimed, and .wheat was not sold to the mills 'at the prices alleged. Had the mills paid such prices as charged they would have had to sell their flour at over $16 a barrel, whereas the flotw price has averaged under $12 a barrel. "I have had absolutely nothing to do with the management of any of these concerns, notw|thstandng what the grand Jury may say to the con- Wary. If I were loon from the grain corporation and anxious to colleot a few filthy dollars, I wold not put in my time day after day with the thank- less Job of trying to handle the grain corporation here in the northwest." TROOPS REPULSE a premeditated, murderous, assult, is what the state has declared it will produce many witnesses to substan- tiate. The plea of the defendants, it has been announced, is self-defense. An effort will be made to show that members of the American Legion "rushed" the I. W. W. hall in Cen- tralia before the radicals fired a shot. The state, iu its opening outlines of the prosecution's case, denied this and declared that the veterans in the parade were in line and marking time when rifle bullets thudded into the bodies of Grimm and other, comrades. If all witnesses named by the state and by the defense actually are called to testify, the period of the tril will stretch away beyond prophec};. Pres- ent estimates are that the case will not go to the Jury within six weeks, and possibly not for two months. The state has named 260 witnesses while the defense has stated that it wlR summon more than 100. BRIEF GENERAL NEWS E. P.
