BULLY INFORMED ABOUT
 AMERICAN GIRLS
Welfare Worker Admins +ers Well Earned
 Rebuke.

Onsk, Aug. IT, via Vladtvostok, Sept. 10 - (Correspondence of The Associated Press)-A certain Russian bully learned something about Amer ican women that will turk in his memory for some eime through an encounter a few days ago with Miss Annie Laurie Williams in the freight yards at Omsk. Miss Williams name will be familiar to many New York CTS as a welfare worker. She is now with the American Red Cross and was one of those 12 women chosen to remain behind when the others were hustled out of Omsk by the American Ambassador to Japan, Ro- land S. Morris to escape a possible Bolshevik invasion.
 The Russian was attempting to climb aboard a car in a refugee train in which were several girls The girls were trying to shut the car door against him when Miss Williams ap- peared and grappled with the intru- der. She managed to land two blows on his jaw and then they rolled to- gether down the embankment AS they arose she gave him another.
 Two Czech soldiers then came to her aid and, but for Miss Williams tntercession, would have finished the bully who was eventually allowed to retreat and ponder on the strange ways of American women.

KICK
 AGAINST FOOD CONTROL SYSTEM

Coblenz, Oct. 6-(Correspondence of the Associated Press)-More in sistent protests than ever before against governmen food control the host of food profiteers and food brokers and the ever increasing speculation in foreign exchange now fill the columns of the food journals and farm magazines of Germany.
 Food prices continue very high. This is attributed partly to the low valuation of the mark. The official exchange rate for the mark for Sep tember at headquarters of the Ameri- can Forces in Germany was 22 marks to the dollar
 Since Germany resumed commercial relations with the outside world she has been able to import only meagre quantities of necessary and staple foodstuffs, with the exception of fish and milk, the food journals say There has been a good crop of fruits and vegetables throughout Germany Livestock Is reported to be about twenty per cent. below normal with little prospect of enough food to stimulate breeding except possibly of hogs.

LAFAYETTE.

"Lafayette, we are here!" They were Pershings words as he saIuted the tomb of Lafayette, sublime in their brevity. America had come to repay to France a debt which she owed to Lafayette and his France who once helped Columbia. Today is the anniversary of the morning at Versailles, Oct. 17S9, when the gallant nob1eman, the Marquis de Lafayette, preserved the royal family from the popular excitement. The Revolution was rising. The hungry mob had reached Versailles. Yer sailles was a tornado. On the great balcony of the palace Marie Antofn- cite, pale as ashes, appeared before the bowling multitude, her arm around her children. Lafayette knelt on one knee on the balcony, and kissed the royal hand in fealty. He then embraced the Queens body guard. Shouts of joy went up from the fckle mob. For the moment, Lafayette saved his sovereign.

''PR0HIBS" NOW WANT TO DRY
 UP THE WORLD D

WestvilIe, O., Oct. 6-F-ifty million dollars, as the financial necessity; enforcement and stability of Prohibi- ton in the United States; ultimate world Prohibition; closer co-opera- ton among the state Leagues and of the state Leagues with the national organization; the tightening up along all lines for one hundred per cent efficiency-these things are expected to result from action taken in a con ference of the officials of the Anti Saloon League of America and the state superintendents and headquar- ters committees.
 A fve-year permanent financial campaign was agreed upon, in which there will be raised fifty million dol lars for state, national and world work on a graduated scale.
 In addition there will be put on an intensive drive for twenty-five mil lion dollars or more to be used in the Amertcanization of foreigners and in the worldwide Prohibition fight, working in foreign countries through the cooperation of the World League Against Alcoholism.
 There are now in foreign countries nearly a. score of workers sent out by the League. Under the plan adopt ed today these workers will be great ly augmented in number until there are several workers in each foreign country cooperating with the tenn perance forces of that country. The work now being completed in the British Isles, especially in Scotland where there is to be a wet and dry vote next year, will be heavily in- creased. Special attention will be given, 1t is announced, to the South American countries.

BRAzILIANS ARE
 NOT WORRYING
 OVER DRY SPELL Fl. ]

Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, .'-~ 1S- (Corresp pondence of the Associated q Press)-Should prohibition ever be- come effective in Brazil 1t is probable that few Brazilians would be greatly affected by it. The Brazilian ap- parently does not care for strong drink.
 Coffee is the national beverage and the coffee shops are among the in teresting sights of the city. They are to be found everywhere, but are es- pecially numerous in the downtown section and along the principal ave- nues.
 The shops are on the street floor, are wide open and contain numerous small tables. Excellent coffee, gener- ally black and strong, Is served in tiny cups at the uniform price equiva- lent to about ? 1-2 cents a cup.
 It Is in these shops and while stp- ping their coffee that many Brazilians discuss business or social affairs, and also watch the passing throngs. Many of the shops remain open all night and are well patronized. In fact some of them contain more patrons at a. m. than at any other time. Nearly all of the coffee shops carry an abun- dant stock of alcoholic liquors, -t there is little call for it.

NO LAWS FOR PROTECTION OF TENANT FARMERS There Are Never Any Quarrels Over
 Rents. IF ONE BOOSTERS
 ALL DO WE'LL Land Always Divided Among Sons on a Mans
 Death.

There are tenant farmers in China, but there are no laws for the protec- ton of the owners. None are need ed. They never quarrel over rent If one prospers the other .prospers What's one's loss is also the others loss.
 Farms in China are small due to the custom of dividing the land owned by a man among his sons at his death. The work is done entirely by the farmer and his family; there are no carts, beasts of burdens or up- to-date machinery to aid. If it were not for the custom of dividing land among the sons on a mans death there would probably be no tenant farmer class in China. As it is, after the land has been partitioned many times there IS not enough left for all and the younger sons seek other call ings in which to make a livelihood or rent a farm from a wealthy man who has invested his money in land. The number of such tenants has grown to be a large one.
 Customs of rent are entirely diff ferent from those prevailing in the United States. Land owners and tenants do not become hostile to each
 
 China does not have our problem of a shifting farm tenantry which has done so much to complcate the rural church problem here.
 Payment of rent is almost invart- ably made in kind in China. When harvest time comes the landlord takes a seat where he can watch operations. As soon as the rice is cut and thresh- ed 1t is weighed and one-half is hand ed over to the owner of the land; the renter retains the rest. There is no dispute over what is due the landlord and no back rent to pay. If the crop is a poor one the owner suffers equal 1y with the tenant.
 The same division is made of the sweet potatoes except that, as large share of the potatoes are used before they ripen, one row belongs to the landlord to every row belonging to the tenant. Each can dig his share whenever he wishes. Taro and beans come under a different regulation The taro requires more manure than the other crops so that the landlord receives half of the beans but is required to furnish the seed. Wheat barley and all other kinds of vege- tables belong exclusively to the ten ant.
 The Chinese tenant farmer and his landlord get along admirably with that method of paying rent It fosters a friendly feeling between them. If the year has been a bad one due to drought, miIdew or other causes. the tenant knows that his landlord will take his share of the crops anI not harass him for further payment no matter if his share is less than half what it was the season be- fore

BRITISH EAGER FOR PROPOSED
 AIRSHIP LINES

London, Oct. 6-That passengers are eagerly awaiting the establish ment of airplane routes to distant points in the British Empire is shown by the requests for tickets received by a company which operates an air plane line from Folkstone to Paris. On the day when the service opened, the office of the company was be- sieged by inquirers seeking bookings for all parts of the world. One want cd to make a trip to Venice and an- other demanded a ticket to Cairo.
 Persons with relatives or interests in India have made numerous inquir- ies to learn how soon it will be pos sible for them to go there by 'r- plane.
