TODEMAND THAT

Measure Would Permit Settle
ment of Much Outstand-
ing Work

Washington. Jan. Ex-senator
Chamberlain, OF Oregon, will make
an another effort to-day to keep the
Senate in session until the final vote
has been taken on the military COM
mittee's bill to validate and permit
the settlement of informal war con-
tracts aggregating $2,750, ,0O0,0 900.
Prolonged discussion of amend
ments and of the Hitchcock substi-
tute prevented action on the measure
yesterday. When Senator Chamber
lain moved for a recess, he an
nounced his intention to keep the
measure before the upper house.
During consideration of the bill
yesterday, the Senate tentatively
adopted an amendment by Senator
Henderson, of Nevada, authorizing
the Secretary of the Interior to ad-
just claims growing out of the stim-
ulation by the government of the
production of minerals needed in the
prosecution of the war. Another
amendment by Senator McKellar. of
Tennessee, requiring the War De-
partment to furnish Congress the
names of the contractors whose
claims were adjusted and the
amounts involved, was adopted. Al

Domin ion Protests
We're Grave, Says
Correspondent

London, Jan. 3O.-The British inn
perial war cabinet has accepted
President Wilson's theory of inter-
naturalization as applied to the cap
tured German colonies, notwith-
standing energetic protests from the
representatives of the dOminionS,
says the Daily Mails Paris corre-
spondent.
These protests" says the corre-
spondent, have been of the gravest
character. The South African rep
resentatives believe acceptance will
give the greatest encouragement to
the rebel element in South Africa
which it ever has received during
British administration. The Austria
liam delegates fear that Australian
public opinion will regard it as ex-
tremely unsatisfactory and mex
plicable. The dominion representa-
tives generally, though very reticent,
are greatly perturbed."
The Daily Mail cites Arabia and
MeStopotamia as instances where
possibly the inhabitants are capable
of self-determination and would
have their wishes put into effect by
the league of nations.
Regarding safeguards under which
the mandatories would administer
the countries whose people are not
ripe for elf-determination the Daily
Mail says President Wilson proposes
that the safeguards shall be settled
by the peace conference or the
league of nations, they being varied
according to local conditions.

INVESTS MILLIONS
IN THE ARPLANE
TO DEVELOP USE
New Yorker Buys British War
Equipment For CONNER
cial Purposes

New York, Jan. 30.-The entire
aircraft equipment provided by
Great Britain at q cost of more than
$10,000,000 for training Canadian
aviators in the dominion during the
war, has been purchased from the
British government by Roy U. Con-
ger, a New York business man, it is
announced here. One use to which
the equipment would be put, it was
said, was immediate development of
commercial airplane routes in Can
ada.
The deal was closed yesterday in
Toronto, when Mr.. Conger handed q
certified check to Sir Joseph Fla
velle, representing the British min
istrY of munitions, and Director Nor
row, of the imperial aircraft board.
Through the transaction Mr.. Con-
ger becomes the greatest individual
owner of airplanes and airplane
equipment in the world, while it is
said that only the United States,
England, France and Italy own more
machines.
The whole equipment will be
moved from the royal flying corps
training Yields at Armaru Heights,
Rathburn, Mohawk, Bearsville and
Borden to the field at Leaside, the
use of which, it is said, has been
granted Mr.. Conger, rent free, for
six months.

THINKS AMERICAS
SHOULD NOT BE
EUROPE'SUMPRE
Warning Against ga New In
ternationalism" Given by
Congressman Fess

Hartford, Conn, Jan. 30.-As a
guest of the Mckinley Association,
which, as is its custom, last night
observed Mckinley day by a dinner,
Congressman S. d. Fess, of Ohio,
gave a warning against what he
termed "a new internationalism,"
and said that America should not
become the umpire in European
quarrels. He spoke at length on re-
construction problems and pointed
out dangers toward which he be-
lieved the country is drifting. He
said the bonds of government are
swapping under the strain of war and
the people should not be ignorant
of the imminence of danger.
He said that liberty of industry is
denied and all business finds itself
with the governments strangle hold
on it's throat" The door of oppor-
tunity must be left open to capital,
he said, to invest in existent indus
tries and develop new industries; the
labor situation made acute by de-
mobilization should be relieved.
The speaker said there should be
reaffirmation of the American policy
of protection of American labor
against cheaper labor of the old
world.
Representative Fess said he was
sorry that Mr.. Gompers had said
that labor will not give up any
benefits it gained by the war" If
labor refuses to make concessions,
he said there is danger that mine
and factory products cannot be sold,
that industry will stop and consump-
ton decrease.
I'm that event." said Mr.. Fess, I'VE
will have situation where anarchy
will lift its head and the slogan Kill
and burn will be heard. This would
be Bolshevism in it's worst form.
Capital must be willing to concede;
labor must do it's part; there must
be cooperation; both must be rea-
sonable."
Governor Holcomb, who spoke
briefly, said the existence of the Re-
publican party has been hidden un-
der patriotic effort for the country.
Frank A. Coles, of Middletown,
was elected president of the McKin-
ley Association. The next dinner will
be held in Middletown.

New York Votes
Dry Although Democrats
Opposed Ratification

Albany, n. Y, Jan. 30.-New York
became the forty-fourth state to
ratify the federal prohibition amend
ment when the Senate last night,
by vote of 27 to "a, concurred in
the McNab ratifying resolution
which was adopted by the assembly
last week.
The entire Democratic delegation
of % voted as a unit against ratifica-
ton and was assisted by two Re-
publicans, Henry II. Sage, of AL
bany, and Charles C Lockwood, of
Kings, both of whom had refused to
be bound by the action of a Repub-
lican caucus making ratification a
party measure.
Just before the adoption of the
resolution, the Senate by a vote of
26 to 25, defeated motion of Sen
ator John j.. Boylan, Democrat, of
New York, to substitute his bill,
calling for an advisory referendum.

Wilson's Colony Plan
Is Accepted by British
War Cabinet, Is Report

before him." the correspondent con-
tinues, "the principles of the British
colonial administration as those
which the league must enforce by
safeguards and the British view ap-
pears to be that under this system,
while formal adhesion is given to
President Wilson's theory, the right
of government by mandatory power
will not differ in effect from the Brit
ish imperial conception. This view
induced the imperial cabinet to ac-
cept President Wilson's plan, but an
examination into the steps to be
taken for putting it into effect al
ready reveals the gravest difficult
ties"
ut involves three difficulties of
paramount Importance. First, who
is to pay for the development of the
territory; second, what rules regard
ing tariffs are to be observed, and,
third, are the mandatories to be al
lowed to exclude people or capital
they do not wish to enter.
President Wilson believes all
these can be settled by separate con-
sideration of the case of each terri
tory. He even foresees the possibility
of the league having Fevenue derived
from constituent members, which
might be spent in developing lands
which it will nominally own.
French, Italian and British col
onial opinion is that any system of
international control always has
proved a failure and always will,
and that the only right of interfer-
ence which the league ought to as
sumo would be the right to call to
account any power whose govern
ment is injurious to the interests of
the inhabitants.
The colonial delegates declare
that public opinion in their countries
is quite incapable of appreciating the
idea that administration under Pres
ident Wilson's scheme may. under
certain circumstances, not differ ma
terially from actual possession"

according to the bureau of crop es-
inmates of the Department of Agri-
culture. Accordingly this state
moved into the tenth place from the
fourteenth position.
The total value of farm crops Of
the country in 1918 was half a bill
lion dollars more than the total of
any previous year. The aggregate
Value of farm crops for the year
mas been placed at $4,000, 769, 900.
The previous record value year was
1917. The value of last years crop
was double the average vaIue for
the nEe years, 1912 to 1916.
Illinois Is First
Illinois ranked first in the value
of all crops as did that state in 1917.
Iowa, Texas and Georgia were sec
ond, third and fourth, holding the
same rank they did in 1917. Minne-
sofa took fifth rank, jumping from
ninth place which she held in 1917.
Ohio dropped back into sixth place
from the fifth rank. North Carolina
moved up into seventh rank from
the eleventh place. Indiana retained
her eighth place. Missouri dropped
into ninth rank from the sixth place
she held the previous year. Nebras-
ka, which held seventh in 1917,
