THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IN D., TUESDAY, JUL.I zo, xs-si.
SOVIET WILL ACCEPT HOOVER OFFER TO AID SICK AND STARVING RIGA. July 26. The telegram sent by Herbert Hoover, as head of the American relief administration, with regard to aid for the starving and Pick of Soviet Russia was forwarded to Moscow Monday. Although the decision rests with Moscow, the opinion is expressed in soviet circles here that Mr. Hoover's terms probably will be accepted. Soviet Resent Terms.
Soviet officials in Riga resent the offer as being conditional on the release of prisoners. One of them characterized it as "weighing seven or eight prisoners against 1,000.000 lives,"' but he expressed the opinion that the soviet government probably
would accept. ! The Russian soviet government Is! reconsidering the question of admitting American journalists into Russia. Any relief on a large scale from the outside, according to experts, must be immediate, as navigation will b open for only three months more. If relief is delayed, they assert, millions of persons will perish. The executive committee of Third Internationale has issued a call to all forkmen's unions affiliated with it to gather funds with .which to purchase
lood. Live on Roots and Bones. The Rosta News Agency, the official Bolshevik organ, confirms the report that Maxim Gorky has been authorized to go abroad as a special commissioner to procure aid. An official wireless Moscow dispatch received here describes in details the horrors of the famine and the consequent mass emigration in search of food. The city, of Saratov is like a "gypsy camp, with its starving, emaciated and dying humanity." The peasants thre have subsisted since spring on roots mixed with the ground bones of animals. In the German Volga Communes the hunser began in tho
winter and much suffering prevailed. In Astrakhan government the people are subsisting on fish. No grain is obtainable there. The government of Tsaritsein, which never raises big crops, this year has no crop. In Ufa from 80 to 90 percent of the crops has proved a failure and the populacce is subsisting on roots and grass. Whereever a small amount of grain is found, it is devoured without threshing. The dispatch says similar conditions prevail in other government. Mr. Hoover's message, given out in Washington SuDday night, was addressed to Maxim Gorky, at Petrograd. Immediate release of the Americans held prisoners in Russia would have to be ordered by the soviet government before aid could be provided. Secretary Hoover's message stipulated.

BARBER SHOP FACTOR
IN PRISON MORALE, SAYS OHIO SHERIFF (By Associated Pressl CLEVELAND, July 26. Prisoners who desire to dress up and retain a fastidious appearance can do so by taking advantage of the opportunity offered them at the Cuyahoga county jail here A barber shop Is maintained without expense to it3 patrons and
every prisoner is encouraged to make J
use of it. At the request of Sheriff Charles E. Stannard. the county recently pur-r-haspri thrpe barber chairs and a
quantity of hamer supplies. The bar- j
bers are prisoners awaiting trial, selected because of proficiency and they continue as prison tonsoralists until they leave the jail. Several guards stand by while the prisoner is in the barber chair, special precautions being taken with those charged with the more serious crimes. On the day a prisoner is to go into court he is given a haircut and a shave, and his clothes are pressed. Sheriff Stannard says the new barber shop is a strong factor in maintaining the morale of prisoners.
SPECIAL TROUT DIET SUBJECT OF STUDY (By Associated Press) YELLOWSTONE PARK, Wyo.. July 26. Thousands of trout are in tho wrong "boarding house," declares Professor R. A. Muttowski, of the University of Idaho, who is here trying to figure out carefully selected diet for each species. Certain types of trout should be nlantpd in streams where the bugs and
insects are to their liking, he believes. And because they are not so planted : there is a waste of thousands of fish
each year. '
"Trout are particular regarding what they eat," he says. "If we can select the right place for the right
fish there will be a marked decrease in the number of trout that die. My work is to determine just where various varieties of trout should be and this is based on what bugs and insects they are fond of."
INDICTED WITH GOVERNOR SMALL
Death of Aged Cclored Man Recalls Old Slavery Days William Burton, colored, who died Sunday at his home at 822 North
Twelfth street, was 37 years of age at the outbreak of the Civil war. He drove a government wagon for the Union forces. One of his favorite tales was of the Cumberland Gap and the road through it over which he drove his wagon. William, and two brothers, Steve and Loney, both dead, were free born. The parents bought their freedom from the Burton family of Garrett county, Kentucky, before the birth of William. Other older children born before that event lived all their lives and died in slavery. The father of William Burton worked for wages during his spare time, by the permission of his master, saved his wages and purchased his
wife fro mher owner. She then
saved all her wages, having

End Testimony in Suit Over Line Fence Dispute (Special to The Palladium) GREENVILLE, O.. July 26.

All the parties in the action are colored residents of Liberty township. Judge Teegarden will view the premises and render his decision at a later date.
and by the political results of distress among farmers. Abundant reports
from the country to Washington point out not only the economic distress of the farmers but also the political consequence present and potential of that distress. The political consequences of econ-' omic distress do not always aim accurately. They frequently express themselves in blind resentment against the party in power and an espousal of the party out of power. Pendulum Shifts Well informed reports which were brought to Washington last week concerning political conditions in a large middle western state said that if a congressional election were held in that state today it would go Democratic although in the election last year it was overwhelmingly Republican.
It is not merely that the administration fears political results of this kind
even more does it fear the rise of economic and financial heresies which is always an accompaniment of bad times among the farmers. It is a normal phenomen reasonably to be expected that the man who was a candidate for vice president on the populist ticket in the nineties now a United States senator in the person of Tom Watson, of Georgia, is demand
ing some sort of punishment little i
short on drawing and quartering of the federal reserve board for its management of the country's finances. Assaults Continue. These assaults on the federal re
serve board come also from other quarters from from which more might be expected in the war of economic truth than from Senator Watson. A man who, within six months, sat on the board as an ex-officio member namely, John Skelton Williams, of Virginia, is out with a fierce denunciation of the
board. This sort of thing is bound to go on and increase. It accompanies every post war period. It may well provide the issues for several coming presidential elections. The chief desire of the administra
tion and its chief duty as well, in this !
respect, is to-provide a form of relief for the farmers which shall be effective for the present without entailing future consequence worse than the thing sought to be cured. It takes no small amount of intelligence and character to steer a country through a period of economic distress without going on the rocks' of financial heresy. (Copyright 1921 by the New York
