on Friday to consider emergency
measures for the relief of American
farmers who are said TO face a loss

alton, and extensions Of credit to Rus
STA and Germany to enable them to

According 10 Senator Capper. the
farmers demand, in addition TO those
remedies, the following:

From Geneva came a story that the
league committee on Armenia, Of
which Lord Robert Cecil is chairman,
probably would appoint Gen. Leonard
Wood commander Of the Armenian ex-
pedltionary force with the title Of
high commissioner The choice, II
was added, was on the recommended
ton of Sir Frederick Morris and
Gen. Weygand. Officials In Washing
ton did not take this report seriously,
but 1t may turn out to be true.
BY unanimous vote the league com
mission on new members decided that
Austria should be admitted, and there
was no doubt that the assembly would
ratify the action. Bulgaria also wants
to get in at once, but Greece. Serbia
and Roumania all are opposed TO her
admission and may prevent 1t. There
was reason TO believe they would be
supported in this by France. which
seeks to gain strength In central Eu-
ropean friendships. For the present
at least France has her way in bar

Gustav Ador Of Switzerland. backed

mission instructed to study means IF

rails and measures to insure their
distribution throughout the world. the
argument being that raw materials
belong not 10 the nation in which they
are produced. but to the world. This
was blocked by Sir George Z. Foster
Of Canada. who said his country and
the United States never would sub
scribe to that principle. A futile eff
fort to have Spanish adopted as the

COAST TO COAST JAUNT OPEN TO
 FORMER MARINES

Sergeant Nelson at the local Ma rine Corps recruiting station received a telegram yesterday authorizing him to accept, for a special recruiting detail, a limited number of ex- marines.
 The sergeant says this is a very un- usual opportunity and as the number is very limited, he wishes to see all the ex-marines in the city who are not earning $120 per month, at once. This detail is to follow up the travel ing recruiting party, which is now touring the United States and the trip will take them from coast to coast.
 Any former marine in the city who has been honorably discharged from the Marine Corps is eligible for this. And it will pay any of you "Gyrenes" to call at the recruiting station, IS Fairfield avenue at once and try to get in on the trip.
 The station will be open until ' o'clock every night this week and it is Sergeant Nelson's wish that as many Marines of Bridgeport and other nearby towns in this vicinity be well represented in the tour.

HOGS USED TO
 EAT UP GARBAGE
 IN N. Y. STREETS

Just how the city is going to col 1ect and dispose of all the refuse thar has accumulated in the streets while the collection wagons have been un- able to make their rounds is worry ing the city's officials. But they will not dispose of the garbage, by the method that was in vogue eighty years ago. Hogs in those days were turned loose in the streets to eat the refuse. They did not belong to the city, but they cleaned up neverthe> less.
 Recently many cities throughout the United States have established hog-feeding farms, on which the hogs receive city refuse. The city gets rid of the garbage, the hogs turn it into pork and the city or the contractor makes a profit But in the olden days of 1S42. as the story is told by Charles Dickens in his American Notes" the hogs were simply turned loose to find g. living in Broadway and the other streets of the American metropolis.

WANT 50 TIMES
 THE WAGES PAID
 BEFORE THE WAR

Vienna, Feb. 2S-The effect of the diminishing value of Austrian cur rency is shown in the great increases in wages demanded here. There was a strike of tailors the other day to enforce a demand by master tailors for an income of 65,7SO crowns a year. Their pre-war earnings were about 2,700 crowns. Assistant tail ors, that is plain sewers, asked ; about 36, OOO crowns a year. lore the war they averaged 700 gowns.
 In all recent strikes and demands of other class of workers, a sliding scale allowance was asked so as to meet the advances in. the price of ne cessities.

REDUCTION OF
 PRODUCTION ON
 FARM POSSIBLE E

Q Half of the farmers who replied to a recent questionable of the post of flee department, contemplate either leaving their farms or. reducing pro auction They rightly complain of the high prices they have to pay for everything, of their long hours as compared with the short day and high wages of factory mechanics.
 Some people think the farmers are going to unite and limit food pro- duction. Never yet, though, have the farmers acted as a unit on anything. Multitudes of them will continue as in the past, to limit their production by failure to adopt cooperative measures, but not many of them will go in for radical mass action. Of course, as prices of food products fall there will be some curtailment. as there always has been in the past. But it will not be after the strike plan, of forcing concessions from the rest of the people. The farmers have real greviances and the country must remedy them.
 Meanwhile the farmers boys who give up their chance to become in dependent farm owners. sell their birthright for a mess of pottage. The Hlan WHO Qu1lS d len hOuT JOD oh lI1S soil, for eight hour work in an unven> tiIated factory, makes no physical gain. While the farmer may work much more than ten hours, in sum- mer, yet there are three or four cas- fer months of the winter period that help balance up his hours somewhat.
 The farm laborer who quits for city life also makes a foolish choice. In these days of farm loans. any am bilious and industrious man can be- come an independent farm owner. As for the abuse of midd1emen's profits, the farmers can largely break them by cooperative marketing. There are many signs among the farmers that they will have gone far to re- move this tax in the next five years
