BOARD TO LET WHEAT RISE TO NATURAL LEVEL Demand for Stabilization Is Answered by Chairman Legge. Cv f tilt ft! Prr* DODGE CITY. Kan . July 11.— Whrat farmers of western Kansas returned to their harvest today, much better informed on the federal farm board's side of its problems in attempting to relieve depression in the grain market. Although still doubtful of the advisibility of reducing their wheat acreages, growers apparently were p greed drastic action will be necessary before the market can be stabilized to such an extent that the rmail farmer can compete successfully with grain corporations, which raise wheat along mass production lines. Alexander Legge, farm board chairman, and Arthur M. Hyde, sec-r-tary of agriculture, were in Amarillo, Tex., today to conduct a growers* meeting similar to one here Thursday in which they explained f*ie workings of the farm board and defended its policies. In answer to a demand by Gov~rnor Clyde M. Reed of Kansas that 'h board buy more wheat to stailize the market, Legge declared he government intends to let wheat eek its natural level, which he said would be higher, in view of the world situation. Legge urged curtailment of wheat acreages, pointing out that the government is spending approximately 51,000.000 a month in carrying expenses on the 60,000.000 bushels beng held by the farm board. More ~f the “taxpayers’ money” can not be spent now, he said.

CHICAGO PAPER OWNERS PROBE PRESSSCANDAL Hire Detectives to Check Alliance of Reporters With Gangsters. Followine is the third and !*it of the United Press series of special dispatcher dealing with developments in the Linde murder case. BY EARL J. JOHNSON United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 11.—The attitude of Chicago newspaper publishers toward charges of racketeering among their reporters may be summarized in three typical statements: 1. That the newspapers have nothing to conceal. 2. That fvery rumor of an alliance between reporters and gangsters is being investigated. 3. That the country will do well to withhold judgment on the Chicago press until the facts are known. These statements represent the essence of conversations which the United Press has had with leaders in the Chicago newspaper fraternity in the days of journalistic excitement since the murder of Alfred J. Lingle, Chicago Tribune police reporter. Those interviewed were S. E. Thomason, publisher of the Daily Times: Colonel R. R. McCormick, publisher of the Tribune: Walter S. Strong, publisher of the Daily News; Homer Guck, publisher of the Her-ald-Examiner; Herman Black, publisher of the Evening American, and Charles A. Segner, managing editor,

who jpoke for John Shaffer, publisher of the Evening Pogt. Each publisher is in charge of a property worth at least a million dollars. Most of the papers Represent investments of many times that figure. Under the pressure of executive duties it would be unusual if the publishers were familiar with the private affairs of their police reporters or minor editors. Colonel McCormick did not know of Lirgle's dishonesty until the scandal of Lingle's gang connec- j tions came to light after his murder. The Lingle scandal itself w'as in the rumor stage several days before the evidence of his betrayal was strong enough to warrant exposure in the Tribune. Meanwhile the intensely competitive newspaper atmosphere in Chicago was filled with rumors that other reporters besides Lingle were using their positions for illicit gain. Publishers began private investigations, hired detectives to check up on certain staff men whose names were mentioned in the rumors, and questioned their editors about men working “on the outside.” In some offices personal finances cf reporters were looked into by executive order. But, as Homer Guck of the Her-

ald-Examiner phrased it, "a father eften is last to learn of his own son’s misdeeds.” None of the publishers even now will guarantee that tis own staff is 100 per cent pure, tut all are emphatic in saying that any man found to be racketeering will be discharged and prosecuted. Walter String of the Daily News sees the situation which has developed in the wake of the Lingle killing as endangering public confidence in the press. | “Under present conditions of crime,” Strong said, “the newspapers are about all the people have left. Public confidence in the press must be preserved.” Herman Black of the American pointed out the futility of expecting reporters assigned to cover gangland to avoid all contact with gangsters. A reporter's first job when assigned to a crime expose is to obtain the confidence of at least one gangsters who will talk. Each reporter develops his own technique in such dealings. Often it is necessary to hire tipsters and stool pigeons. Leland Reese, Daily News reporter, once had such a connection with Jyjius Rosenheim, who was dropped by that paper after he was said to have attempted extortion among gang-

i sters by threatening to "expose them | in the News.” These connections are looked upon by the papers as “just ! a part of the business. ’ All have expressed an eagerness jto have an official, showdown on the racketeering charges “to clear i the names of those who are not guilty.” ATTORNEYS SEEK TO BLOCK SEWER WORK Injunctions Asked in Broad Ripple, Pogues Run Projects. “It's nobody's business who retained me in this case,” William Bosson Sr., attorney for plaintiffs seeking to block three sewer projects, declared today.
