Washington, Oct 28-Labor
leaders participated today with rep
resentatives of farmers, in further
conference to devise ways and means
of obtaining credits for "the orderly
marketing" of farm products. Fail
urc to secure such credits, speakers
declared, might result in the inau-

reasonable profit.
A general committee to draw up
a policy to be followed by the con-
ference was appointed, with John

terests represented. 1t went into

it was said, and congress asked for
relief if it could not be obtained
otherwise.
Statement Unsatisfactory.
The conference met on call OF the
committee appointed by a recent
similar gathering to receive the an
swer of the federal reserve board to
the plea for more credits. The
statement of the board was declared
by this committee to be unsatisfac-
tory.
A loan of $l,0O0,0O0,OOO by the
United States to GERMANY was one
plan laid before the policy commit
tee. William w. Braucr Of New
York, who asserted that he repre-
sented the German government,
asked the committee to endorse leg
islation by congress. authorizing
such loan to Germany. He said
the German government was pre-
pared to give such loan priority
over all reparations payments un-
der the Versailles treaty. Property
of the German government and the
German nationals, seized by the
alien property custodian, and claims
arising from the seizure of German
shipping would be offered as addi-
tional security, Mr.. Brauer said.
Germany was ready to purchase
$780, 100000 of original products i'm
mcdiately, he asserted, on such an
extension of credit.
Has Contract With Geremany.
Mr.. Brauer said he had contract
with the German government, au-
thorizing him to obtain the $1,000
100000 loan and have sole charge of
spending. it.
Frank Morrison, secretary OF the
American Federation of Labor, and
William H. Johnston, president of
the international Association of
Machinists, promised their co-opera-
ton with the farmers. Mr.. Johnston
declared Warren S. Stone, president
OF the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers. had authorized him TO
give his support to the effort to Sc
cure credits for the orderly crop
marketing.

prosperity for Poland is begun and that
my political mission is finished"
This is the language of unselfshly pa
triotic craftsmanship, happily unreflec-
tive Of Mr., Paderewski's personal trials
in the premiership. The question of his
success or failure in politics is infinitely
small compared with the revival of a ma
ton once ruthlessly partitioned among
rapacious neighbors.
The rehabilitation of independent Po-
land is, indeed, one of the indisputablv
Just and solid results of the great war.
The right historical perspective on this
inspiring fact will be obtained more
easily as the years roll by.

There would be body Of accountants
and stenographers and copyists and the
like which would move from department
to department, according to the needs of
each. Under this arrangement a much
smaller force could do all the work and,
without any increase in appropriations, a
living wage could be paid to every one.
The President, with the immense pow
ers conferred on him by Congress for
carrying on the war, could have brought
about this great reform if he had been so
disposed.
Nothing is likely to be done until Con-
gress is persuaded that reform is politi-
cally expedient. Mr.. Catherwood's
speech, if the congressman read it,
ought to have some effect in Washington.

But it is upon courts and the enlightened
Judgment of courts that civilization de-

complaint about indeiniteness and un-

Therefore the tradition that no President

Suppose universities were made more dem

What would be the result?
Would any university president serve as
long as Doctor Schurman has served?
Would the faculties, jealous of the auto
crat they created by their votes, limit the
presidents of their election to eight or ten or
twelve years. service?
Why should not faculties feel about COL
lege presidents as the whole country feels
about them now that it has had seven years
of one of them in the presidency at Wash
ington?
When Doctor Butler, of Columbia Uni

BETTER DAYS FOR POLICEMEN

DETER times are ahead for the police.
- The agitation for better pay is hav-
ing practical results and, if we are to
judge by the work done in conferences
such as the Mayor had yesterday with
Controller Walton, it will have a happy
ending before long.
Meanwhile, the departure of Superin-
tendent Robinson is sign of progress in
another direction.
Acting Superintendent Mills, who will
succeed Robinson, is closer to the men
than his predecessor, more democratic
and generally representative of an oppo-
site theory of police administration. He
never goose-stepped for any faction and
much of the efficiency there is in the de-
partment is due to his efforts.
With a year of Mills and better pay,
and an absence of factional control, life
in policeman's uniform ought to be less
Of burden than it has been in recent
years.

.FLoURlSHlNG NATIONAL GUARD

THE respect to the present National
Guard system contained in the army
appropriation bill seems to be amply
justified in the rapid reorganization of
Pennsylvania's state troops.
Major General William G. Price, Jr,
forecast that if Congress adopts the
proposed legislation this commonwealth
will be able to put her new National
Guard division in the field within ninety
days. Recruiting has been brisk and sue
cessful. Sentiment is considerably
needed in the preservation of the stirring
name, Twenty-eighth Division.
All of which goes to show that the
guard system enjoys a popularity based
on tradition and sympathetic apprecia-
tion of the American temperament, and
that this state in military affairs is dis
playing its familiar initiative.

of their usefulness, the quarter century Doc

public gain?
You could not get any one thinking over
the Presidents of the last half century to
admit it.
Suppose college presidents served only for
the democratically short terms of American
Presidents, would there be any loss:
The occasional great educator would not
have time TO complete his work. But many
indifferent college presidents would be got

DR. JACOB GOULD SCHURAIAN in
- resigning the presidency of Cornell Uni
versity gives the reason that he has served
for more than quarter Of a century, and
that no man is good as an executive for more
than twenty five years or, to be more exact,
that the length of a mans usefulness in that
capacity varies, but that in his case he feels
sure that it did not exceed twenty five years.
This is another attempt, like that of Doctor
Osler, to define the period of mans utility.
Twenty five years is long time.
We have theory as people that mans
utility as chief executive of the nation does
not exceed eight years, and as a matter of
fact the year beyond the seventh in that
office. like the years beyond threescore and
ten in the Bible, is a year of trouble and
unhappiness.
