toward the presidency. He announced
that he is not a candidate for the nom-
ination and that no one is authorized
to speak for him politically. 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.'*

Regret at Serving Relations.

cepted, effective March 1, the resigna-

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.

by a United States grand jury here.
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.
