PLEADS FOR SYSTEM
in FARM SCHOOLS
Kenyon L. Butterheld Speaks at An
nual Educational Convention.

The need of a definite policy TO dr.
rect the energy OF agricultural stu
dents i'm the colleges of the country
and on the farms in a manner to best
serve the nation was voiced in the
annual address Of President Kenyon
L. Butterfeld. OF Massachusetts,. at
the meeting last night OF the thirty
first annual convention of the Asso-
citation of American Agricultural Col
leges and Experiment Stations at the
Willard Hotel
Students in agricultural colleges
throughout the country have ceased
their studies and have gone to war,
Mr.. Butterheld said He did not de-
sire to oppose their going. But the
question was whether service in the
army or navy was better for the na-
ton than to finish their studies and
begin TO produce food.
The formation Of a definite policy in
this regard. Mr.. Butterheld declared.
was imperative. and he was ''keenly.

Secretary OF Agriculture Houston
addressed the delegates yesterday
morning, reviewing the changes
wrought in the agricultural industry
by the entrance of the United States
into the war.
Great work had been done by the
farmers of the country and agricul-
turaI workers generally. Secretary
Houston said, in supplying abnor-
mally abundant crops that enabled
the United States TO feed itself ano
also help TO feed in large part the
allies.

count of the allies, a very great pre-
ponderence is for purchases in the
United States. so that the operations
involve merely a shifting OF credits
and have not been a strain on the
financial resources of the country.
Not only is this true. but every pre-
caution is being taken, by wise re-
strictions upon the shipment of gold,
accompanied by careful study of the
course Of international trade, TO hus-
band the resources of the country.
The association, at the closing ses-
sion today of its sixth annual conven-
ton, decided to appoint a committee
of five to study the question Of war
time conservation of capital. confer
with other organizations and report
to the associations board OF gov
ernors. This decision was reached
after hearing the report of a special
committee.
The committee on municipal securi-
ties expressed belief that Congress
is without authority to levy any tax
on the obligations of any State or its
political subdivisions without a fur
ther constitutional amendment"
Another matter of great interest to
the investing public, because of the
fact that s., 800, 900. .eOe of foreign securi-
ties are now owned in America, was
the clothing of the associations COM
mittee on foreign relations with broad
powers. That committee is to form
the nucleus of a similar committee to
which will be given such power and
scope as that held by the London For
eiGn Bondholders' Committee. Such
committee would safeguard the inter-
ests of American investors in foreign
government securities.

Cincinnati. Ohio, Nov. 1.-THE en-

to the country today at the opening

American nation by the war, for the
preservation Of American standards
of human freedom, the institutions OF
free government in America and
American notions OF the rights Of

with the consecrated devotion Of this
generation to surrender our free

AWAIT WORD
FROM FRANCIS
Ambassador at, Petrograd
Has Failed to Wire State
Department.

No word has been received by the
State Department from Ambassador
Francis. at Petrograd. for more than
four days. Diplomatic circles are be-
ginning to wonder as TO the fate of
Kerensky.
Unoficial reports coming by way OF
Sweden and Finland carried the good
word that Kerensky had succeeded in
re-establishing himself throughout all
Russia. Even Maximalist troops were
reported as deserting to him in the
face of his magnetic sweep at the
head Of his forces.

Petrograd Is declared still In the
hands of the Bolshevfli. but the Cos
sacks, the staunch supporters of the
premier, are said to be pushing the
revolutionists hard In all quarters OF
the country. Moscow. according &c
unofficial reports. is now the head
quarters Of the Kerensky govern
ment.
The one disQuieting feature is thai
IL Kerensky is in control, he should
be able to get some word to the al
lied countries and to the Russian EN-
bassy here. Ambassador Bakhmetefl
has received nothing Official TO give
him definite assurance that Kerensky

REPUBLIC Of Brazil
NOW Is YEARS OLD
Impressive Ceremonies Are Planned
to Commemorate Anniversary.

Brazil will celebrate today the
twenty-eighth anniversary of the
bloodless revolution which made 1t
one of the greatest of the South
American republics. A reception will
be given at the capital. Rio de Jane
iro. by President Wenceslau Braz, the
ninth ruler of the nation. Argentina
probably will send a battleship to
saipte President Braz in honor OF the
occasion, while the other nations OF
the world will express their congrat-
ulations.
In Washington the national flag
will be spread to the breeze and a
long line of callers, including mem
bers OF the Diplomatic Corps. will visit
the Brazilian Ambassador to express
their congratulations.
The republic of Brazil was founded
in 1889. when. on November is, Mar
shal Deodoro da Fonseca led a blood
less revolution which deposed En-
peror Dom Pedro.
Immediately after the revolution a
constitution was drawn and approved.
The constitution is modelled after that
of the United states and under the
republican form of government Bra
zil has steadily increased in power
and influence.
An allowance of five million pounds
was appropriated by the Brazilian
Congress Immediately after the revo-
luton and offered to former Emperor
Dom Pedro, who, with his daughter.
the Crown Porincess Isabel. had fed
to Europe. Dom Pedro refused the
OFFER and has lived abroad since.

DESCRIBES TRAITS
OF GERMAN PEOPLE
Dr.. Stiles Says Teutons Are Loyal
to Kaiser.

At meeting of the Home Defense
League, OF the Tenth precinct last
night in the Central High School, Dr.
c. w. Stiles. who spent eight years
in Germany as a special Representa-
tive Of the United States. delivered
an interesting address on Traits OF
German Character" wherein he eau
toned his hearers not 20 be led astrsy
by the assumption that we can win
the war by singing patriotic airs and
buying liberty bonds.
He declared that Germany is COM
posed OF a homogeneous race, patrio-
tic to a remarkable extent, notwith-
standing the fact that oftentimes
times they disagree with administra-
tive policies OF their government, and
being highly law abiding. will 60 to
any extreme In biindly executing the
laws OF their country or commands of
| their rulers.
= This accounts TO a large extent, he
said. for the atrocities committed by
they disagree with administrative
France. DR.. Stiles felt satisfied from
his intimate knowledge OF German
character that while most Of the acts
OF fiendishness committed by German
soldiers in the countries named were
abhorrent to their natures, their 10y
atty to law and order, so called, was
great enough 10 overcome their con-
scientious scruples.
The speaker claimed that long be-
fore the United States declared war
against Germany il was thought in
that country that strife was inevitable
between the two nations, as Germany
has little respect for the Monroe doc
trine. and has come TO regard the
American people as a sort Of get
rich-ouick" race.

be possible for him to obtain this
authority, for their is little doubt that
Congress would grant it to him.
The letter written by President Will
son to Judge Chambers follows:
my Dear Judge Chambers-May /
not express my very deep and serious
interest in your efforts to bring the
railroad executives and the brother
hoods engaged in train opera ton to
an agreement that there shall be no
interruption in their relations on
either side until ample opportunity
shall have been afforded the United
States Board of Mediation and Con-
Citation to bring about, il possible, an
amicable agreement. and that in the
event of a failure to bring about such
an agreement any controversy that
may have arisen will be submitted to
arbitration in accordance with the
provisions of the Newlands law?
Il take it for granted that your ef-
forts will succeed, because 1t is in
conceivable to me that patriotic men
should now for a moment contemplate
the interruption of the transportation
which is so absolutely necessary to
the safety of the nation and to its
success in arms, as well as to its
whole industrial life; but I wanted,
nevertheless. to express my deep per-
sonal interest in the matter and to
wish you Godspeed
THE last thing I should wish to
contemplate would be the possibility
OF being obliged to take unusual
measures to operate the railways, and
have so much confidence that the
men you are dealing with will appre-
ciate the patriotic motives underlying
your efforts that shall look forward
Win assurance to your success,
cordially and sincerely yours,

Speaking of the danger that con-
