FLORAL SOCIETY URGED
GET Behind GARDEN
Organization ReSueSted To
Assist In Creating Interest
Among Boys And Girls.

Superintendent Todd, VI the city
schools has recently received bulletins,
literature and blanks from the nntioh
al bureau Of education, appealing to
the instructors to take up the matter
of garden instruction and practice
among the pupils, as a means Of sup
plementing the work that is done-of
supposed TO be dOnG-by the boys and
girls clubs in adding to the food pro
duetion Of the United States. This
country is asked to produce 2O,O0O,O00
tons Of extra food for the benefit Of
the destitute in Europe.
A definite program Of instruction is
mapped out by r. e. Chapman, Of the
national bureau, who proposes to mo
bilize the school children Of the cOun-
try into "schOol garden army " This
matter was presented to the different
teachers by Mr.. Todd, and the c0Opera-
tion Of the children solicited, but con
sidcring the results obtained in the
war garden" campaign last year, 1t
is difficult TO be optimistic. The fact
vas pointed out that the majority Of
DHfb WIN hit Dih thbuHh W mdAt my
progress in gardening, are looking for
work that will pay them more in mon.
ey than they could make out Of garden
operations. Furthermore ii must be
recognized that neither boys nor girls
can be induced TO take up any such
line Of work unless there is some sort
Of incentive before them-cither prof
it or h0nOrs of some form. Hero is a
line OF work that has been suggested
for the Salem Floral society, which
might enlarge its scope to take in gar
den work as well Is flower culture. A
series Of modest prizes offered to boys
and girls for high grade garden work
or flower culture might result in bene-
fitting the children as well as in help

Asked By French,

Paris, March Sl-When the big

question of reparation was expected to

An effort was to be made to dispose OF
this problem, which is understood to
have been chiefly instrumental in delay
ing the peace work curing the past
week.
Premier Lloyd George, it was learn
de, was prepared 10 offer SUBSTITUTE
for the French plen presented last week
which proposed that Frances share Of
indemnities be $4,000, 900, 600. A prom
inent financial expert told the United
Press today that the Chg four had
obtained the advice of several finan'
GERS in the matter and that he "under.
stood the French proposal had been
headed off. "
French Claim Opposed.
While the informant did not reveal
the exact nature Of the financier s ad
vice, he indicated that President Will
son and Lloyd-Gcorge felt that Sl6.
100000 900 was excessive, inasmueh as
from $4,000 100000 to $40, ,OOC
has been agreed on as the maximum OF
reparation. He added that the situa
tion is such that the French cannot ex
pect to get en excessive amount.

admitted to present difficulties, but the

Germany paying q large proportion OF

Money Is Needed
For Syrian and

Pittsburgh, Feb. 7.-CIeveland II
Dodge, treasurer OF the American
committee for relief in the near east.
in statement issued this week
pointed out that of the 100000, 900
appropriation by congress for re-
lief work abroad, only a very small
part and possibly none OF the ap-
preparation will go to aid the mil
lions of men, women and children
who are literally starving in Armen-
ian, Syria and other parts of the
world under Turkish domination.
1T is the governments inten-
ton" said Mr.. Dodge, ito use the
S10O,000,000 where there are re-
sponsible governments that may en-
ter into some arrangement for re-
payment of the sums advanced, in
Armenia and elsewhere where the
efforts of the American committee
for relief in the near east are direct
ed. The need is of the utmost urg-
ency, and these people will not be
able to derive benefit from the gov
ernment's relief plans.
The Armenian union to-day re-
ceived a cable from the Belgian
consul at Basra saying. learn with
deepest sorrow that ten thousand
Armenians at Mosul are naked and
absolutely destitute, most of the
refugees are dying of sickness and
hunger"
