In the Sugar Market (By Thomson Sc McKinnon) NEW YORK.

POINTJS BELIEF Expert Says Ascension Probably Will Stop at sls, Bv United Press OKLAHOMA CITY. Okla., March 3.—Hog prices will remain at a proportionately high livel for more than a year, J. J. /Jibson, manager and vice president of the Southwest American livestock show here this week, told the United Press today. Prices throughout the United States will continue their present price ascension, probably halting when they reach sls, Gibson said. He predicted that the sls level would be reached In less than sixty days. All above sl3 that the hog grower receives will be pure profit, Gibson, a livestock authority of the southwest, asserted. An acute shortage of hogs, caused by the price slump a year ago, has emptied the larders of the major packing plants. This, together with high priced corn, sent prices of marketable hogs soaring. As customary with the farm Industry, thousands of hogs will be raised this summer, but they will not be ready to market until a year from now. A 6 per cent increase in the acreage of corn planted this year, will bring a slump in hog and grain prices again next year, Gibson said. A 50 per cent shortage of hogs exists in the southwest and a 25 per cent shertage prevail* ?, Nebraska. lowa, and Missouri at vhe present time, according to Gt'uaon.
HOUSE MAY BALK ON FINANCE BILL (Continued From Page One) from the conservation department and $75,000 from the Northern Indiana Hospital for the Insane at Logansporti Debate Is Bitter The bitterest debate of the session came on the amendment submitted by Senator Merry for the Riley Hospital appropnatibn. Despite a signed denial by Hugh McK. Landon, George A. Ball, W. C. Bobbs, James W. Fesler, Dr. Cafleton B. McCullouch, L. C. Huesmann, S. E. Smith, Dr. Lafayette Pave, Ira C. Batman and Benjamin F. Long, that the appropriation was to be used for anew building, Lieutenant Governor Van Orman dedared these men were seeking to get a State appropriation to reimburse them for money advanced on a note to the Riley Hospital. Van Orman declared the hospital o worthy nroject and the men public spirited but charged the Senate Flnance Committee knew of the Intentions of the members of the hospital committee. Senator Cann declared he would like to believe the statement, but that he had it from authority he could not question that the men were to use the money for reimbursing themselves. Southern Hospital Wins A motion by Senator Cravens for $85,000 for a pumping station at the Southeastern Hospital for the Insane av North s\adison was passed, but on reconsideration of the action was defeated. Budget framers were defeated In their attempt to take SBOO,OOO from the Southern Indiana Hospital for the Insane at Evansville. When It was shown it cost only $167 a patient a year at Evansville and $834 a patient at Indianapolis, the ypproprlation stood. Bitter fight is expeeetd In the House when the lower body considers the Senate amendments. Purdue University friends are expected to object strenuously to the Riley Hospital appropriation unless a like amount is given to Purdue. The Riley item comes under Indiana University. The House added $2,603.485.65 to the bill when it was before that body. 2JNHEED Oil, AND TURPENTINE Local dealer* are quoting the following 1

By ROY J. GIBBONS, NEA Service Wnter. C" "■ HICAGO, March 3.—Up to this point '.he going has u—l been rough. There has been but little sunshine in his life.' But Eugene V. Debs is decidedly anything but licked. He spent three years behind the gray walls of the Federal prison at Atlanta for obstructing the draft during the war.

SPEAKERS URGE MANAGER PLAN (tVmtinued From Page One) years to a political party or faction of a party.” Edward O. Snethen, president of Federation o£ Civic Clubs, addressed Purchasing Agents Association of Indiana at luncheon at the Severin. "City manager form of government permits selection of an executive who is outside the political ring, and he can be retained as long as he proves efficient,” he said. Short Ballot “Well known citizens who have been successful in private business will run for the commission under the manager system. With the short t.allot voters can know the capable candidates.” Winfield Miller, attorney, one of the sponsor* of the law giving cities the right to select their own form of local government, addressed the Mercator Club luncheon at the Spink Arms. Discussions followed the addresses. “Indianapolis should be operated on the same business-like basis as any other corporation,” Joseph R. Raub, secretary Indianapolis Life Insurance Company, said today. “Under the present system the mayor can not succeed himself. One mayor selects men to fill the various posts and the next one fires the old city employes and puts in his friends. "No business expending annually the amount of money the city of Indianapolis does fires its employes e/ery four years. We should keep good men after they become efficient at their various tasks.” Knows From Experience William H. Meub. local agent for New England Mutual Life Insurance Company, said “Indianapolis municipal affairs can be operated with far more efficiency under the city manager plan and with the approval of more of the population than it can under the present system-” “The city manager plan was verysuccessful at Ft. Dodge, lowa, where I lived several years. It is a smaller city than Indianapolis, but I see no reason why it will not work here,” said J. R. Townsend, general agent for Equitable Life Insurance Company of lowa. C. F. Maetzchke, Indiana manager for Prudential Insuranoe Company of America, said “Indianapolis should be operated on a business like basis, as proposed in the city manager form.”

Says Debs, whose seventieth birthday is just a little while off. “When a man takes up anew work, when he strives toward an Ideal he .knows is right, he cannot fail. He cannot fall, though the whole world curSe him and condemn him. “I am called an anarchist, a traitor, ah undesirable. My citizenship has been taken from me. I have been put in prison. Now I must die an alien. “But I am not discouraged. Some day the werld will awaken to the truths I am preaching. “I may be wrong, but I am so sure I am right that I am willing to face the whole world alone. Had Political Opportunity ‘*When I was a young man 1 had before me a wonderful political future. “Back in Terre Haute, Ind., where I was born, I was elected city clerk when barely of age. At 28 I was elected to the Legislature. I was 'offered a seat in Congress. Political leaders told me I mieht be President. “I learned of the crookedness and corruption of politics. And so I quit—for it was a hindrance to the purposes to which I had dedicated my life. “Money means nothing to me. I do not seek glory. I want only justice for the worker. "But the world is not yet ready to accept the theories and principles for which I stand. It Is blinded by prosperity. Education Solution “Education is the only solution. The laboring classes must understand that their salvation lies in unity based on intelligence. They must organize industrially and politically in order that the dream of “industrial democracy” may be fulfilled. "Industrial autocracy will some day lead to its own destruction. "Then will come many changes. And with it will come realization of the dream for which I now am striving. “That is why I have not failed. A man only fails in his own heart.”
