bulletins il'nlted Pt*** Service) Washington, April Hi—(Special to Daily Democrat)—The supreme court of the United State* today placed it* itamp of approval on second attempt of congress to regulate the grain exchange of the country* It declared constitutional the "grain futures act," asked by congress last fall which brings the principal grain exchanges of the country under gov ernmental control and provides that farmers co-operative association shall be admitted to membership exchanges. About a year ago the court declared unconstitutional the first grain futures act passed by congress. The primary purpose of the two

laws was to protect the farmers and I producers of the country against al- ' leged losses due to the manipulation i of grain market speculators. I Washington, April 16—The destiny of race and the future of cilivizatioti I depend upon finding an answer to world problems and "on our sincere generous broad minded acceptance of that answer when it is found." President Harding said today in addressing the convention of the D. A. R here. Hut the president, added "until the new paths are well revealed we must hold secure those which he inherited. We shall not find an answer which will be completely satisfactory to any state or race or people." Indianapolis, April 16—" What 1 want and all I want is that Indiana republicans elect a chairman with some brains and who will be unselfishly for the Republican party,” Post master General Harry S. New declared on his arrival here todav in discussing the chairmanship fight brought about by prospective resignation of Lawrence Lyons. "I have no candidate for the chairmanship." when it comes to political organization, I never thought to make or control. lam not now departing from long established customs.” Washington. April 16 — Spurious war veteran organizations and publications preying upon the sympathies of the American public are to be driven out of existence by the combined forces of the justice and postoflice departments, it was learned here today. Aggressive investigation by the two departments in the last few months with the aid of commercial and advertising organizations have practically completed the chains of evidence necessary to federal prosecution. A quick clean up campaign with many arrests is Imminent. Los Angeles, April 16—Clara Phillips. escaped hammer murderess today was reported located in the republic of San Salvador. According to -a story published here. Sheriff Williams. Traeger had worked in co-o|e eration with a local newspaper in tracing her to the Central American republic. Berlin. April 16 —The Ruhr miners conference—representing all parties in the region—petitioned the German government in a resolution today to I publish its entire reparations plan, - tor international discussion. In this way the entire matter would be placed before the world for judgment, it was said. London, April 16 —The Bonar law : government presented its budget— I which may make or break the govI eminent —its parliament today. As i the momentous monetary problem , was placed before the legislators, ntj mors persisted that the resignation lof the Bonar Law cabinet was at hand. This was officially denied at j 10 Downing street. The fate of the English pocket book lies in the budget. It has been announced that tax reductions will be submitted and the nation is awaiting the' scheme with expectancy. ■ • ' ' O I !• I mi II Fritz Leiber to be in Fort Wayne This Week Meteoric rise to sensational stardom is seen in the success of Fritz Leiber, who will appear under the management of George Ford at. the Majestic, Fort Wayne, on Thursday and Friday, April 19 and 20 for an engagement of two nights and one matinee, in elaborately mounted production of "Romeo and Juliet," Thursday night, "Taming of the I Shrew" for the Friday matinee, and "Othello" on Friday night.
