The difference in flavor is amazing. Some 50 years were spent perfecting Quaker flavor. No other oats offers it to you. Yet tire price you pay is the same. Quaker milling, too, retains much of the “bulk” of oats. And that makes laxatives less often needed. Protein, carbohydrates and vitamines and “bulk" are thus combined in making Quaker Oats an excellently balanced ration. Quick Quaker cooks in 3 to 5 minutes. That's faster tlian pGm toast.

LEOPOLD’S PART IN JAIL BREAK TO BE REVEALED (CONTINI'RD FftOM IMtltt ONE) ty Warden Peter Klein to death. Leopold, according to this theory of the jail break, not only furnished the implements of death but plotted the escape. He had planned to participate in the dash to freedom, his keepers believe, “went too far" in actually killing the deputy warden. Tho young college graduate, a brilliant law student, realized the danger involved If he were to escape with the others and be captured—he would be as guilty for the deputy warden’s murder. Reports that Leopold himself would be a witness before the grand jury were given added weight when it was learned the youthful “thrill slayer” had denied any part in the jail break and was anxious to testify in his own defense. Meanwhile search continued today for the remaining two of Jhe seven convicts who escaped. Five have been captured but James Price and Charles Dttchowski have successfully evaded armed posses. o PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL GENERAL AND MUNICIPAL (COXTIXI’F.D FROM I’ttlE OX'EI meanest of insults. This is an industrial struggle absolutely. It is no general strike but a strike on a large scale in sympathy with the miners, whose cause has evoked support in sacrifice from other workers unparallelled in industrial history. A few men in this struggle may have revolutionary tendencies and the way to strengthen these is to go on repeating unfounded charges of revolutionary purpose on the part of organized labor in Britain. The strike is not an attack on the community and is not directed against tho British constitution. It is an act of retaliation against the mine owners’ lockout. I have never approved a general strike as a policy but I know the causes which, in this case, have produced a deplorable position. 1 know how much all classes will suffer in common losses entailed by wide and bitter conflict. 1 believe that in the main tiie dispute will be conducted in keeping with the British reputation for common sense. But that reputation would best be retained by a return at once to negotiations and by both sides seeking a settlement free from lockout of miners on one hand and strike of other workers on the other. Cries of "no surrender” will settle nothing and a prolonged stoppage must involve losses for which even the hopes of success on either side would offer to compensation. 0 _ OF FARM RELIEF STARTED TODAY (COXTINt'MD FROM PAGE ONE) be supplanted by the Tincher bill, but they make no boasts about the latter’s fate if it should reach a final vote stage. Supporters of the Haugen bill make no predictions about the fate of their own proposal hut do predict that I lie Tincher bill will fail of passage if it is substituted for the Haugen measure. Democrats, according to present indications, will line up against the Tincher bill, while Representative Dickinson, republican, lowa, believes nearly all of the Haugen forces will vote against it. The Curtis-Aswell bill which s< me regard, as the “dark horse" measure, is facing objections from a third re-publican-democratic combine, composed of some of the supporters of the other two bills and opponents of any I remedial legislation. | The Haugen bill came up today for j amendment with considerable sharpI shooting in prospbet. Most of the
amendments are expected to be directed at setting up a farm board and advisory council. ——————o—*——— SOME LABORERS ARE RETURNING, REPORT STATES (COVI'IM ED FROM PAGE OXE) still is standing fast against Premier Stanley Buhl win's demand for uncondltior.i‘l surrender.

Tho railway situation is satisfactory. On the first day of the strike ,819 trains were operated. Yesterday, there were 5,503. The number of special constables enrolled In London Monday was 3.793. “Quiet continues throughout the country. Transport steadily is expanded and the government protective measure suffice. There is a constant increase in unemployment due to the widening effect of the stoppage." For the first time today the injunction was used to prevent further walkouts. Justice Seadury in chancery court, granted an injunction restraining 1 branch officials of the national sailors’ and firemens' union from calling members to strike without authority of the executive council of the union. ——o Cupid Wrecks College Career For Another Couple Evanston, 111., May 11—(United Press) —Cupid has wrecked the college careers of another pair of Northwestern University seniors, it was learned today. President Walter Dill Scott of the universil y“announced that John C. Sproul and Miss Carol Jonson, both seniors, were barred from receiving their diplomas as result of their elopement last Friday.
