CONDITIONS TO Be
MUCH IMPROVED
NEW ERA or PROSPERITY PRE-
oIcTEo FOR FARMERS or
UNITED STATES.
COST OF LIVING TO BE LOWER
Secretary Daniels Says Times VIII Be
Better Under the New Tariff
System.

Kansas City.-A new era Of pros
perity and good living for the farmer
under the new tariff Law was predicted
by Josephus Daniels. secretary of the
navy, speaking at the nineteenth an
nual John Jay banquet Of the Kansas
City Commercial Club here. The back
to the farm movement now dormant
would be revived in earnest, he said,
under the improved conditions that
are in store for the dwelier In the
country.
The new tariff" said Secretary
Daniels, which win remove from the
farm the excessive charges for every
article needed in the cultivation and
in the home, viii cheaper living for
the farmer The new currency bill that
soon will be law will be followed by
wise legislation providing for rural
credits and for effective laws which
will be put into execution against all
form of monopoly. These Blessings
are almost in sight and their gradual
unfolding will mean a new and better
day for the dwellers on the farms and,
of course, when the farmers are pros
porous their prosperity is of the sort
that reaches out into the cities and
towns and makes them prosperous also.
Products of the farm are bringing
better prices, and we max look to see
increased interest in the raising OF
cattle, sheep and hogs.
Mr. Underwood is right when he
says the benefit of the tariff cannot be
realized suddenly. But one benefit wifi
come whenever the beef trust. for ex-
ample, puts the price up too high, for
the products of the Argentine republic
win come in to compete with trust
prices"

REBELS Want RECOGNITION
VICTORY CAUSES A CHANGE IN
DEMEANoR OF REBELS IN
MEXICO.
Hale Must Present Credentials Before
Carranza Will Continue Any
Negotiations.

Nogales, Sonora, Mexico.-Francis-
co Escudero minister of foreign rela-
lions in the Carranza CABINET. asked
Willard Bayard Hale, President Will
sons agent, to present his credentials
before continuing further with the
conferences which have been under
way here informally for several days.
This was interpreted by many as a
virtual demand for recognition of the
Constituencies revolution before the
exchanges between the Cararnzists
and the Washington government are
concluded.
For our part unofficial negotiations
are ended, "Escudero said. We have
asked Mr.. Hale to present his formal
credentials. / would receive them as
minister of foreign relations and trans
init them TO my chief.
1--WE have been very glad to meet
Mr.. Hale on terms of friendliness,
knowing of his previous Investigations
in Mexico and in view of his relation
with Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Bryan. The
cabinet members on previous occasions
met as individuals only. Each was
member of the cabinet, true, but the
cabinet did not meet. The exchange
of impressions now has ended"
The announcement of the Constitu-
tionalists demand was surprise. No
one on the American side expected
request for formal recognition of the
Insurgents, even in the event that per-
mission to import war munitions from
the United States were granted. At
the beginning Of the negotiations Gen
eral Carranza asserted that the Con-
stitutionalists were not seeking reeog-
nition-in fact did not desire it-and
only wanted the embargo on the inn
portation- of arms lifted.
Westinghouse official comment
was forthcoming in Washington on
the action of General Caracnza's for
eign minister, Francisco Escudero, in
asking William Bayard Hale to pre-
sent credentials before continuing the
conferences which have been in prog
ress at Nogales between Mr.. Hale anc
the Constitutionalist leaders.
