Dublin, Dec. 1S-Out Of the crop of
rurnors circulating In Dublin yesterday
regarding a renewal of efforts toward
p+cace between England and the Sim
Fein organization, there emerged an In
feresting report that military authori-
ties in Ireland actually began negotia-
lions last week for a conference to
arrange a truce.
According to this report, which is &C
cepted as true by those in close touch
with these developments, the overtures
came from the Republicans and one
meeting was held to consider the pre-
liminaries. Then came the Cork fires.
which are said to have so incensed the
Republicans that they broke off the
discussions. Intermediates now are
trying to induce them to meet again
with the military authorities
lt is understood the principal initial
condition the Republicans will seek to
impose is amnesty for all members of
the Irish republican army, including
men the government has been endeav-
oring without success to capture. The
work of the chief Intermediates, Arch
bishop Clune of Perth, western Aus
tralia, and Bish Fogarty of Killaloe,
is proceeding with the utmost secrecy
and 1t is considered unlikely that
sither will consent to make a state

well advanced.

LEADERS APPROVE
EMERGENCY TARIFF
PROGRAM FOR RELIEF OF AGRg.
cULTURlsTs is OUTLINED
BY LAWMAKERS
EARLY ACTION AGREED UPON
High Tariff Will Run for One Year
and Will Apply to Wheat, Cotton,
Wool, Potatoes, Beans, Live
stock and Dressed Meats

Washington, Dec. Congressional
leaders decided yesterday that the way
out of the maze of farmer relief bills
was enactment of an emergency tariff
to run for one year and TO act as an
embargo against importations. IL
would apply to wheat, cotton, wool,
beans, potatoes, livestock and meats.
Agreement Of the legislative leaders
was reached at a joint conference OF
members of the senate finance and
house ways and means committees at
which determination also was reached
TO press the proposed measure to
speedy passage. Actual drafting Of the
bill was started later by members Of
the ways and means committee.
Embargo or High Tariff.
Much discussion was evoked in the
conference relative to a choice between
fiat embargo and a high tariff. but
the house leaders held out against the
employment Of ban on importations
In peace time. urging that the age-old
custom of no emhargoes except in time
of war be followed. Senate members
at the conference declared an embargo
measure could be put through their
branch OF congress more easily than a
high tariff bill, hut they finally assur-
ed the house conferees that they would
use all of their influence to push the
measure through as soon as 1t was re-
ceiyed from the house.
The subject OF ratios 10 be embodied
In the tariff me- sure was not directly
discussed at the difference. Members
Of the house committee which will
draft the bill were informed that the
rates would be left entirely TO them. |
Explanation was made that the reason |
the conference attempted no decision |
on rates was that such discussion |
ght have resulted in breach and

destruction of the whole program. The
suggestion was understood to have
been made by Democratic members of
the conference that they seek an ex-
preston Of views of the president with
respect TO the relief tariff. Republi-
cans. however, opposed such a move.
the contention being made that 1t
would not be known whether the bill
could be passed until the final roll
call, and further, that the measure
might not go to the president in the
form now proposed.
Greene's Bill Basis.
A tentative bill by Representative
Greene, Republican, Iowa. has been
practically accepted as the basis for
the measure for which early passage
will be sought The ways and means
committee probably will take it up
early next week.
Six senators and five representa-
tives attended yesterdays conference.
They are: Senators McCumber, North
Dakota Smoot, Utah Curtis, Kansas;
and Watson, Indiana, Republicans;
and Simmons, North Carolina, Demo
crat; and Nugent, Idaho, Democrat;
and Representatives Fordney, Michi-
gan, chairman of the ways and means
committee; Longworth, Ohio; and
Greene, Iowa, Republicans; and
Rainey, Illinois; and Garner, Texas,
Democrats.
$50 Bills Before Committees.
House members said last night there
were approximately $50 bills before
various committees, all aimed to af-
ford protection for agricultural prod
ucts and give relief to the farmers in
some Form or other. Dozens of them
vary little in form, while others range
from the protection of one single ar
ticle to comprehensive measures en-
bracing protection through tariff or
embargoes on every product of the
farm.
It was believed the action Of the
house leaders would not change plans
to pass the senate resolution to re-
vive the war finance corporation. This
proposition was described as being
aside from the particular problems
which the house and senate are try
ing to solve in shielding the farmer
from falling prices.
The action taken at yesterdays
joint conference, however, developed
a new fear among some house mem
bers. While declaring the plan to push
through a tariff of embargo proper
tons had their support, they expressed
the fear that other lines of business
might seek similar relief.

use of the air in making rapid exchanges In commerce

And increasing evidences along the line of such activities
indicate that Tennysons native land is so very

AT present the movement for the promotion of aerial
freight business is in connection with the one for much
greater development of the motor truck freights in

But it contempates the evolution of area freight

in the swift carriage of pershable goods particularly
food products to the London markets One Of the deal
engaged in this line of enterprise says: "Aera trans

between the luxury market value Of say, an orange
picked when ripe and served in London before it has

in which vacancies occur most frequently
Positions that pay big money that require skill and
judgment in the holders. are not proclaimed by card
in the window they hawked about. But that
many jobs open evidenced by advertisements in the
newspapers That any one who wants work should be
unable to get it improbable. The real trouble in
such lies probably not much in inability to get
job in inability to get the kind of job one wants

there is little demand he will have difficulty in placing
himselm in remuneratve position.
The ony alternative for who finds little demand
for his particular talents is to adapt himself to
thing else though It offers less financial return than
he would like 1t is true that succeeds best in that
line Of work which he likes best There are instances
though rare in which the pleasure derived from the

DISAPPEARING FORESTS.

Consumption of timber is four times present produc
ton in the United States according to statement Of
Secretary of Agriculture Meredith This is alarming
condition of things, especially in connection with the
additional fact that three-ffths of the original timber
Of the country has been cut.
OF course, there was time when forests had to be
cleared to provN for crops and when it highly
desirable to get at least portion of the woods in any
given district out of the way of the pillow, but that
long time ago Since the early days Of the country
uses of timber have increased largely including the
great demand for wood pulp for the purpose of
making.
Now compelled to find substitutes for wood TO
preserve forests by intelligent treatment, and to
adopt national policy of reforestation Several states
have gone into forest preservation encouraging
SCALE but the position taken by the forest service that
forestaton plan applying to the whole country is need
ed, is the correct attitude.
We learn much about conservation of forests from
the way in which woodlands preserved IN England and
the continent of Europe.

ARTIFICIAL TEETH LUxURIEs.

One of the oddities of efforts by France to restore

mitted to spend their money them when made in
foreign countries.
France has been noted producer of these
articles, but has imported practically all those used, de-
pending mainly the United States and Great Britain
for her supply Now Frenchmen and Frenchwomen are
not to be allowed to purchase artificial teeth made in
these or yother countries.
This country has for several years been the worlds
largest manufacturer Of artificial teeth and has turned
out probably $5O,0O000o worth Of teeth in the last
decade The value of the exports running at

revolution because of proposal to reduce the size Of
the army There is widespread grumbling among the
common soldiers at the prospect of having end put
to their Stree and easy life Of camp and field All Of
which is exciting enough until reads further that
Considerable adverse comment is heard especially among
