Picking Settles Down;
Factions Quit Fight

PEKING. July 20.-A train carrying
10 marines and several American,
British and Japanese officers left here
today for the congested section of the
Pekin-Tien Tsin railway. The mill
tary men will endeavor to assist the
department of communications in re-
opening traffic on the line which is
still interrupted between Yangtsun
and Lola.
On the way the train will pick up
the British inspector of communica-
ton. The break in the line, which
gestion is said to- have been origin
ally caused by the flight of the sta
ton master.
There is little change in the mill
tary situation outside Picking, but the
city itself today was more quiet than

ARGENTINE TO BUY
WHEAT FROM FRANCE

BUENOS AYRES, July 19-France
has yielded to the Argentine govern
ment 100000 metric tons of the total
Of 2S0.00 tons OF wheat for which the
French government contracted in this
country. This wheat will be purchased
by Argentine at twenty pesos per kilo
with the proceeds of the wheat export
super tax recently put into effect.
The government will use the wheat
to decrease the price of bread. II is
estimated the super tax will net the
government a total of 56.000,000 pesos
of which only 100000 will be needed
to pay France.
La Epoca, the government organ,
cites the transaction as evidence of
the cordial relations existing between
France and Argentina and as refuting
the prophecies made here that Argen-
tine would be isolated because Presi-
dent Irigoyen maintained neutrality
during the European war.
Similar negotiations with England
and Italy for wheat concessions have
not yet been successful
Having procured enactment Of the
law imposing a super tax on wheat eX-
ports in order TO obtain funds with
which to purchase wheat, the Argen-
tine government was confronted with
difficulty in obtaining wheat, as most
of the available supply in Argentine
had been contracted for by England.
France, Italy and other foreign gov
ernments. A Buenos Ayres dispatch
late in June said the government was
negotiating with the foreign govern
ments for the release of 100000 tons.
1t was intimated that if these nego-
tiations were unsuccessful President
Irigoyen might decree complete pro-
hibition Of wheat exports.

McCray Fauors Home
Rule for All Cities

Warren T. McCray, Republican
nominee for governor, favors home
rule for Indiana cities so far as it is
practicable, he said today.
Home rule depends in a mea sure
upon the men selected to carry on the
city's government" he said. THE
question of city government has to
do with the selection of capable men,
and under some managerial and com
mission forms of government you may
have incompetent officers as easily as
you have them under the present sys-
tenn"
Mr.. McCray said he would not op-
pose home rule for cities.

Joseph Mills Heads Committee
to Raise Earlham Fund in Citv

The citizens of Richmond and
Wayne county have not been called
upon before, and have not contributed
to the deficits sustained by the col
lege.
The religious bodies take the posi-
ton that they have borne the burden
long enough, and that if Richmond and
Wayne county desire continuation
of the advantages and benefits derived
from the college, they must share some
part of the financial burden such ad
vantages incur.
Wayne county, including Richmond
furnished 225 students to Earlham col
lege during the year 1920. The aver
age cost of maintaining each of them
at school is 100000, or total OF
$4,000 Each of these students
spends an average of $3.50, which
amounts to $33,750.
Should Earlham college cease tc
function and those who desire a col
lege education be compelled to &C
elsewhere to obtain it, the actual cash
taken out of this county would amount
to $16S,750 annually.
Besides this, the $50 students who
attended college from outside OF
wayne county WOulu uOL Collie dulOuS
this people and spend 1927, 900. There
fore, if Earlha m college should be re
moved from Richmond, it would re
suit in a financial loss of $396,250 tC
the people of Richmond and Wayne
county.
The teachers at Earlham are paiG
an average salary of $3.50 per day
less than the hod-carriers receive
While the cost of living has increased
approximately 800 per cent since 1914
the increase in teachers salaries has
been only 171a per cent.
The proposition is this Richmond
and Wayne county owe Earlham col
lege a debt that has been accumulat
ing for 20 years, and unless they are
now disposed to pay it, this institution
will be compelled to suspend opera
lions in the near future. 1t is YOU
! obligation. You have collected the
| benefit both financial and educational
| Are you going to pay and continue the
advantages heretofore enjoyed, or dc
| you prefer the other alternative?

Business men meeting in the Y. NJ
c. A, to organize an executive com
mittee to conduct the Earlham col
lege endowment fund campaign, chose
Joseph II. Mills chairman of tenn
porary committee, and Harry c. Doan,
secretary, today.
This committee is to meet Wednes-
day at 7:30 p. m, in the office of
Mr.. Mills.
Facts were presented showing that
Earlham was not properly equipped
for its needs. In their statement of
facts it was said that the practice OF
the past had been to allow the deficits
to accumulate for several years, and
then put on strenuous campaign to
liQuidate this Indebtedness.
No Longer Feasible.
This custom had been possible be-
cause deficits had been small prior to
1914. Since that date deficits have
been so large that it has required an
annual campaign for funds. 1t has
been necessary to raise ST. 900 from
contributions from among the mem
bership of the church and the alumni
and old students
1t was pointed out that about 225
young men and women from Wayne
county attend Earlham college an
nually. Earlham draws students from
26 states and from 40 Indiana coun-
ties, thus advertising Richmond in the
most valuable way. Figures showing
that Earlham college had been com.
PEELED to operate on funds only suffi.
Gent for about one-fifth the number
were also presented.
The following survey of conditions
was presented:
The receipts from tuition at Earl
ham, plus the interest on the present
endowment fund amounted, for the
current year, to approximately $50,
900. This sum was approximately
100000 less than enough to cover the
actual expense Of operation. This rep
resents the average condition for sew
eral years past. Heretofore, the
amounts necessary to cover this de
ficit have been provided by the In
diana and Western Yearly Meetings Of
the Society Of Friends.
