RADICAL IRISH STAGE RIOT Mew York.--David Lloyd George, Great Britain's magnetic little wartime premier, brought his American tour to a magnificent climax in a farewell address at the Metropolitan opera house. Before a selected audience, which gave him rapt attention and frequent applause, he gave this aa his parting message to America: "Civilization Is doomed and within the - present generation--unless the United States and Great Britain, acting In concert and close ce-operatlon, go to the rescue of torn and ^nerv*- racked Eursoe." While scenes Inside the Metropolitan were orderly and sympathetic In every way, there were serious disturbances outside when 250 Irish of the old De Valera clique attempted to march with banners deriding Lloyd George and the British empire, Mr. Lloyd George got glimpses of the riot when he arrived and again when he left the opera house, but he remained unruffled and seemed pleased when the plaudits of the crowd drowned out the jeers of the Irlsft. The hostile demonstration was timed to start with Lloyd George's approach. A group of some 250 Irish attempted to inarch past police cordons with banners praising De Valera and denouncing Lloyd George in particular and the British government In general. A woman was at the bead of the marchers. She refused to obey orders of the police to turn back. A clash resulted. One woman brought her banner down on the head of a policeman. Several other women and numerous men began to pummel the policeman. Some struck with walking sticks. The caps of numerous po'lce- _men were knocked off. But a coolheaded sergeant counseled bis men, and ordered them to drive the marchers back off Broadway. ^ -- ' 'J*- Murder Plantation Dead Total More Than 1,000 in Philippines Manila,' P.

Chicago.---The Chicago Board of Trade may take the initiative In making the marketing of the United States Wheat crop a co-operative, instead of a speculative proposition. Goaded by the many charges of "gambling,*' "manipulating prices," "robbing the farmer" and so forth, several prominent members of the board are urging President John J. Stream and directors of the association to discontinue trading in wheat and confine operations on the exchange to other grain futures. "Washington reports 'that grain exchanges and brokers have been flooding the capital with protests against the government's co-operative marketing plan are not true," said Mr. Stream. "I do not know a single message sent by a member of the Chicago Board of Trade and I know that the board, officially, has refrained from taking any part whatever in the conferences that have been held in Washington, Chicago and other cities In regard to the plan." It is not the intention of proponents of immediate suspension of trading In wheat futures to ignore that grain altogether. . Instead of the present method of doing business, however. It Is proposed that trading be done by grades, specifically noted as Ma 1 Northern, jt No. 2 Bed. or No. 2 hard, and so fortli, and confined to receivers, shippers and millers.

Army |f f$gr ipers Eatt Up Unete Sam's Income. •'-•jjta - - PS CAPTTA LEVY IS $64id Washington.--Remarkable growth In the Increasing burden of taxation In the United States Is revealed In a report Just made public by the national Industrial conference board, which represents the result^ of a year's study of the whole problem of the cost of government. Of almost equal Importance, the board cites the constantly rising amount of property which has been rendered by various means exempt from taxation, and the value of which, In round figures, lo given as $54,000,- 000,000 in 1922, "This stupendous sum," says the report, '^represents slightly less than onefifth of our national wealth, and Is equal roughly to one-third of all property assessed under the general property tax which forms the bulwark of state and local government finance." Another aspect of the report Is the statement that the board finds the American farmer paying more than his share of the nation's tax bill, as related to his income The figures, says the report, "demonstrate very clearly that as related to Income the farmer's burden of taxation has been before the war and still is heavier than that resting on the remaining economic classes." Summarizing the growth of the country tax bill, the report shows that the nation paid last year In taxes 7,061,0<)0,000, compared with $8,363.- 000,000 in 1921; $2,194,000,000 in 1913, and $1,382,000,000 in 1903. On the other hand, taxes of state and local governments continued to mount, state taxes Increased from $307,000,000 in 1913 to $846,000,000 in 1922. Likewise local taxes rose from $1,219,000,000 In 1913 to $3,301,000,000 last year. This rising ratio of taxation to the national income is also shown by the statement that it was .4 per cent in 1913, 12.J P«r cent In I91»r 10.7 per cent In 1921; and 12.1 per cent In 1922. druggist thortsed to nay to crate Radio Signal Races to Warsaw, Poland, and Back 20 Times New York.--Proving a revolutionary' step In the scientific. and commercial development of radio telegraphy, a radio signal made 20 round trips from the New York office of the Radio Corporation of America to Warsaw, Poland, traveling at a speed of 4,500.000 miles In 25 seconds, without the assistance of aa operator at either end. * Couzens Gives $110,000, - Ford $60,000 to Charity Detroit, Mich.--Senator James Couzens pledged $110,000 to the community fund, for which $2,500,000 is to be raised this week for organized charitable work in Detroit.
