WAR AIMS

Bv United Press.
Petrograd, Feb. 1.-(Copywrited; !;
delayed Foreign Minister Trotsky
has replied to the war aim declara-
tions of President Wilson and Lloyd

President Wilson's formula seeks
to meet ours, but If applied would
result similarly to German diploma
cy," said Foreign Minister Trotslzy.
President Wilson addressed himself
primarily to Austria-Hungary, con
ceding autonomy to the dual mon
archy, but not independence, hoping
to divorce them from the Central AL
lance If President Wilson and
Lloyd George really sought quick
peace, they should have joined the
general peace negotiations. If the
allies show a willingness to join in
peace negotiations, they would get
a response from the Central empires.

IS
COMMERCE
BODY NOW
Eliminate Farm Feature Of Organization;
Ask This Department Be Taken Up
By Entire County

At a meeting of the Commercial
and Rarm bureau of Grady county
last night at the city hall it was
decided to change the name of the
organization to that of the Chick
asha Chamber of Commerce and
after June 80, of this year to turn
the work of the Farm bureau over
to another organization. This
means that after June 80, there will
be no Farm bureau in this county
unless the work is taken up by the
people throughout the county and
continued as it now is.
In speaking Of doing away with
the Farm bureau none Of the mem
bers had anything but words of
praise for the work that had been
done by o. c. Cooper. county farm
agent However. it was the opin-
ion that since the Farm bureau was
only an indirect benefit to this city
and was of equal Importance to all
of the other towns in the county it
was nothing more than right that
the burden of financing the organ
zatlo should be left up to the coun-
ty.
The new organization as formed
last night will consist of the same
membership as the old Farm bu-
reau and the same officers will
hold over until May /, with one
exception. A secretary will be en-
ployed and paid salary to devote
all of his time to looking after the
interests of the organization and of
the city.
1t is likely that a new Organiza-
ton of the Farm bureau will bc
started soon among the farmers OF
the county and the business men of
other towns which will be composed
of members from each township and
from these will be elected as lirect-
ors of the bureau if plans proposed
uast night are carried out.
1t was also decided that a COM
mittee call upon Mr.. Cooper for the
purpose of conferring with him
about dispensing with the automo-
bile hat has been furnished him in
the past by the organization. The
opinion of the members present was
that the car had been the greatest
drain of expense the organization
had and that hereafter when calls
weres made for Mr.. Cooper those
doing the calling should pay the ex-
penses of his transportation. I'm
less a contract had been made to
furnish Mr.. Cooper with a car it
was decided to dispose of the same
and thus do away with the greatest
expense.
In outlining the work that would
