It is recommended that a larger

where wheat does well the acreage
should be increased In other sec

crops such as corn and peas more live

Serious Financial Troubles May Be
Ended With Loan Of
sg0O,O0O.

Hot Springs, Sept 25.-Adyices re-
ceived in this city tonight from New
York and st. Louis say that the finan-
cial troubles of the Memphis, Dallas
and Gulf railroad win soon be over
and that financial aid to the extent Of
100000 will soon be available for
the liquidation Of the $4s5,00o i'm
debtedness. This will enable the road
to use 5000, 900 for increased construc-
tion. The remainder will go into the
fund.
This rift In the financial clouds of
the struggling little railroad that
gives this city its western outlet is re-
ported to have come from the govern
ment and allied railroad sources. I'M
provements Incorporated in the plan
of acceptance embrace the straighten-
and Glenwood and the building of an
18-mile cut off for main line service
between Glenwood and Stanley.

CRIME INCREASES IN VIENNA.
Authorities Unable to Try Cases
Which Crowd the Court Dockets.

Vienna, Sept. 25.--Ten thousand
criminal cases were recorded in Vienna
in the year 1919, against 1874 in
1910. The prisons are so crowded
that it has become scandal and the
dockets so extended as to lead the pub
lie prosecutor to recommend that all
cases in which conviction would not in
volve more than five years imprison-
ment be quashed. IL is said that many
cases cannot be reached for years.
The judicial machinery Of the state
is wholly inadequate to cope with the
situation. Burgiaries alone are said to
average twenty.thousand monthly.

MllIerand Invites Participation OF v,
S. Troops on Rhine II Forward

aris.-Despite strong French inti-
nations of coercive military action un-
less the Germans should withdraw
from the neutral zone. foreign office
dispatches reported that the German
troops everywhere in the Ruhr region
are making progress.
Intervention by the French regu-
lar forces may lead to the worst con-
sequences in the words OF Premier
Millerand in a state regarding the in
vasion.
After sharp combats near Vessel,
Ham and Walsum, the foreign office
advices state, the German soldiers con-
tinued TO advance.
Nothing has yet been announced re-
garding Frances next step with re-
gard to the sending of German troops
into the Ruhr coal basin, with the ex-
ception OF a vague official statement
which says that any military measures
the French government has under con-
sideration are merely for the purpose
of forcing Germany to adhere strictly
TO the terms Of the peace treaty.
THE military measures under the
governments consideration have as
their sole object the recall of Ger
many to respect for Articles XIII and
Xiv of the peace treaty, which for
bid the presence of German troops in
the zone so kilometers east of the
Rhine" the statement says. "They
are, therefore, purely restrictive meas
ures."
The terms used in the official state
ment are measures of 'astreinte," a
legal expression conveying the idea
of both penalty and constraint. Such
measures are taken by the newspapers
to mean the occupation of Frankfort,
Hanau, Homburg and Darmstadt. The
newspapers express the belief that Of
fetal announcement Of the occupation
is only awaiting Premier Millerand's
notification of and consultation with
the allies.

The commander of the Communist

Assurance was given the delegates,
however, that there would be no trou-

as to a few extremist groups particu-

that government troops have entered
at several points and that two work

GENERAL STRIKE IN
DENMARK HAS BEEN
CALLED OFF INDEFINITELY
The King Has Decided To Grant The
Electoral Reforms Demanded
BY The People

Copenhagen.--Not the
removal of political obstacles and the
announcement that the general strike
had been called off, it still continued
to be effective The employers or
carnations and the trades unions have
not yet reached a definite agreement.
Both yielded on many points, but are
faced by serious, perhaps insurmount-
able, difficulties through the uncom-
promising attitude of certain workers
outside the trades unions organization.
These workers include the dock men.
The general strike was called off
following a general meeting OF the
chairmen of all political parties in
the rigsdag called by King Christian.
The announcement stated that all
the parties had agreed it would be
necessary to hold elections after new
electoral law has been passed.
Premier Liebe declared, upon the
kings suggestion, that he desired to
retire The king will now ask former
Director of the Ministry of Justice
Friis to form cabinet, with the I'M
erstanding that the rigsdag resume its
sessions as soon as possible and begin
negotiations for an electoral bill All
the chairmen promised to cooperate
with a cabinet formed upon that ba-
sis. The resignation of the Liebe min
istry, after five days tenure of of
flee, means that the Socialists will
consent to call off the general strike
providing the new electoral bill is
carried through all the parliamentary
stages before the dissolution of the
rigsdag and the new elections.

ASK OCCUPATION BY ALLIES
Ruhr Valley Isolated From Rest Of
World, With No Trains, Tele'
phones or Telegraph

London.-Th Essen correspondent
Of the London Times, telegraphing
from Cologne, says he was forced to
go 10 Cologne as the Ruhr valley Is
isolated from the rest OF the world,
there being no trains, telegraph com
munication or telephones. Several FAC
tories are still in operation, although
all are picketed by red guards.
The workers OF Dusseldorf refused
to strike, and il was reported at Essen
that the Bochum workers had taken
similar action. The reds ordered the
Krupps TO cease work and the huge
factory is lying idle, to the disgust
of the workers.
The supreme workers council sent
delegation to Cologne to inform the
allies that the reichstag troops were
advancing into the Ruhr basin with
out the entente powers permission
and TO request them either to order
that this invasion cease or occupy the
Ruhr territory themselves. AS the
delegates threaten to blow up the
factories and mines unless the entente
takes action it will possibly be nee
essary for the allies to occupy the
Ruhr district.

mended will be worked out by sub
committees to be appointed later.
Members of the committee hope TO
obtain final action by the house be-
fore the contemplated recess for the
national political conventions, but they
express doubt whether action by the
senate could be had at this session.
Senator Lodge Of Massachusetts,
the Republican leader, after a confer
ence with other senate Republicans
as to future legislation in the senate,
said he thought this would include
bill to give money bonus to former
service men, with provisions for spe-
cial tax to raise the necessary funds.

discussed at great length in executive
session.
While the exact form of legislation
was not decided upon, committee dis
cussion was said to have indicated APP
proval of a plan Of extending voca-
tional education as an alternative to
the cash bonus.
These two plans are a part of the
American Legion's program. Its 9TH
err selected plan of government aid to
soldiers and sailors for building homes
or obtaining ownership Of farms were
said by some members of the COM
mittee to involve too many difficult
ties to be worked out by legislation be-
fore the recess.

FOR PEACH CROP
RAINS AND WIND HAVE MOI IN
JUREp PROSPECTS FOR
BIG HARVEST
STATE NEWS or INTEREST
Brief News OF Importance Gathered
From All Parts OF
The State

Macon. Orchardists in Middle
Georgia agree that the heavy rains
and winds OF the last few weeks have
not injured the prospects for a good
peach crop this year, but all agree
hey will be mighty glad to see sun
shine now for several days. If their
wishes in that respect are granted
hey expect to be able to overcome the
short crop of 1919. With the outlook
good for this year, the orchardists are
turning their attention to the cost Of
peach crates, labor and kindred sub
iects While labor is scarce and is
bound to cause more or less OF
problem for the peach growers, the
matter of crates seems to be giving
the chief concern this year. The crates
which have been in use for so many
years in shipping the fruit have ad.
Yanced from IA to So cents, the latest
Jump being from 2S cents up to 35
cents. Growers are also being made
to plank down the cash when they
take their crates from the factory.
The crate bills of most of the growers
reach into the thousands of dollars
and when that money must be paid
down in advance it is no wonder the
peach men live in a state of unrest
until they actually get their fruit
picked and shipped and the proceeds
in their pockets. Most of the trees in
the peach belt have shed their bios
SONS, and are covered with green
leaves and tiny green fruit.
