One Man Can Own.
Eliminate Speculation Neces
sary, He Tells Congress.

FL Paso, Texas, oct. 1.-THE two
greatest agricultural problems con-
fronting the nation today are those
having to do with tenancy and the
keeping of the young men on the farm
That declaration was made before the
International Dry Farming congress
here TODAY by Dean w NJ. Jardine
of the division OF agriculture or the
Kansas State Agricultural college
Professor Jardine is president of the
congress and was speaking OF the neeo
of "easy' credits and the elimination
of land speculation so that young men
would not be forced to become elther
tenants or farm laborers.
I'VE must have a credit system de-
signed to meet the peculiar conditions
of agriculture" he said, after offerlng
figures to show that tenancy was on
the increase. Existing credit institu-
tions. including the new land banks,
are entirely inadequate to remedy the
basic conditions which cause tenancy.
Lands Increase in Value.
After showing that land values had
increased from $24.37 an acre in 1900
to S46.64 in 1910, as an average, Dean
Jardine said;
According to the cumulative eX-
perience of New Zealand, Australia,
Denmark, Germany and France, the
only policy which will enable the link
ing of more young men with the soil
as occupied owners, is to deal with
speculation first and credit second.
We must first limit the amount of land
which one man can be permitted to
own whenever land values take on
a speculative value. This is done in
New Zealand with universal approval
after the experiment had been placed
in operation. The limitation is SAC
acres of land.
"A system of state repurchase, in or
der that the land of all persons own
ing over $40 acres to be transferred tc
persons who will occupy it. This
should be administered by non-par-
tisan board of experts and their valua-
tions made the basis of both taxation
and repurchase."

ENGLAND PEEVED AGAIN.
Declares U. S. Destroyers Violated
Observation-Disclosures U-53.

London, Oct 1S-Charges that
United States destroyers violated the
laws of neutrality when they stood
by and watched the U-53 sink Brit
ish merchantmen, were ---'~ in the
house of lords this afternoon.
Lord Beresford declared that the
appearance of the destroyers on the
scene made it appear that they were
present in accordance with previous
arrangement.
Viscount Grey declared that the
issue raised by the presence Of the
United States destroyers was a most
important one. The government. he
said, would withhold representations
until it had gathered information re-
garding the statement that the de-
stroyers facilitated the operations of
the U-boat by getting out of the way.

JAPS FRIENDLY
Episcopal Bishop From Japan
Brings Greetings.
Only Possible Conflict Is Over
q. s. immigration Laws.

st. Louis, Oct. 1s.-Japanese people
feel that the best interests of their
country depends on the preservation
of friendly relations with the United
States, the Rt. Rev. H. st. George
Tucker, bishop of Kyoto. told dele
gates to the general convention of the
Protestant Episcopal church here to-
day. Bishop Tucker spoke at a joint
session of the two houses comprising
the convention reviewing the scope
and methods of the church's foreign
mission work.
II have had large opportunities for
meeting Japanese of all classes he
said, land L have never heard an ex-
preston Of the opinion that there is
any essential conflict between the in
terests of Japan and America.
THE only possible cause of trouble
would be in a conviction on the part
of the japanese that they were being
unjustly Disseminated against and
their national honor was involved
Even in regard to the question of the
immigration of the japanese into this
country, the Japanese have shown
willingness to meet the wishes of the
United States by a so-called gentle
mans agreement 1t has undertaken
to prevent further emigration of jap
anese to America and statistics show
In the past few years carried out this
agreement. All that they ask is fair,
undiscriminating treatment of the
Japanese at present residents of
America.
Appoint World Peace Commission.
Bishop Tucker asserted occidental
life and thought is penetrating the
countries of the Orient in an ever in
creasing volume and said the purpose
of Christianity there is to see that the
peoples receive not only the material
istic and intellectual side of-our civil
ization, but also its idealistic side.
Speaking of China. Bishop Tucker
| in that country have done much to
ameliorate social conditions by build
ing hospitals, establishing medical
schools and encouraging the Chinese
| to study modern medical methods.
| Similar work has been accomplished
| in Japan, he said, particularly in es-
tablishing leper colonies. Today's
| joint session over which the Rt. Rev.
F. r. Groves, bishop of Shanghai,
presided, was to be devoted to a con-
ference on What is this church try
| ing to do in her work abroad?"
| At business session which preced-
ed the joint meeting announcement
was made that a resolution had been
| adopted by the house of bishops and
| concurred in by the house of depu-
ties. providing for the appointment of
a commission Ito promote the spread
of the desire for peace in the world
and international friendship and to re-
late their operations to the world al
lance for promoting international
friendship thru the churches The
| commission will be composed of ten
bishops, ten clergymen and ten lay
men.
