Ing their Influence to obtain ratifica-

opinion of officials here, to nothing
more than the waiver which all Amer

Information reaching the state de-

sustained by Bolcs in the foot was
made by a Mauser bullet. Carranza

Mexicans in that region armed with
Mausers, officials said. Advices given

Buenos Aires, jan. 9.-American
business men in Argentina received
with pleasure the announcement that
the United States shipping board had
allotted seven of its fast passenger
liners for service between New York
and South American ports including
Buenos Aires. They have felt thai
they have been struggling against a
handicap owing to slow mail COM
munication and passenger transporta-
ton between the United States and
this country.
If the Americans here wanted to
send a letter to the United States he
knew that in the past it would re-
quire at least thirty days for the let
ter to reach New York and that fire.
quently it would require forty. To
send a representative to the United
States on business mission would re-
quire three months before the agent
could return to Buenos Aires.
Meantime the Americans chance of
doing business has fallen into the
hands of a European competitor who
could communicate with his principals
by mail within three weeks. Fast
steamships have been arriving here
from European ports almost twice a
week. while the mail from the United
States mostly by slow freight steam
ers.
One of the difficulties of which the
Americans here complained was the
delay in receiving bills of lading for
goods sent from the United States to
Argentina. This was due to the fact
that the bills could not be sent on the
steamer which carried the goods and
there were few fast steamers which

MILLIONS SPENT
To MD j. 6. WITH
No HOPE Of CAIN

New York Jan. "a story of how
American capitalists spent vast sums,
without expectation of return or
profit, to aid the government in its
efforts to supply explosives for the
war, was told today to members of
the house committee on expenditures
in the war department. incidentally,
it developed that the same men had
put at the service of their country
valuable secrets learned from the
Germans for the extraction of nitro
gen from the air The committee met
to open an investigation into the eX-
penditures of $S4,000,000 for two
nitrate plants at Muscle Shoals. Ala
bama.
Frank S. Washburn, president of the
American Cyanamid company, which
built one of the plants at Muscle
Shoals informed the committee that
the company had made no profit on
over $S9. 900 600 worth of war work
1t had done for the government. The
plant cost the government $4,000, 600,
had produced 500 tons of ammonium
nitrate when the armistice was signed
and then ceased operating.
1T was inconceivable to me" said
Mr.. Washburn, that during the war
some men of affairs should be enabled
by the government TO make large
profits and others should give their
services for one dollar a year or risk
tSeSa 4 sat the froF6 A., q
man Cyanamid company did not want
any profit out OF its war work. AS a
matter of fact it had none. Govern
ment officials insisted that we be paid
"a fee of $1,500,000. When we re-
ceived this fee we must pay eighty
five per cent of it as taxation. II has
not been feasible for the government toI
repay us our entire expenditure. We
contributed without expense the serv
ices of a staff of experts to the gov
ernment. We had to reimburse famil-
les of men injured in the work.
There has been a general belief
that the American Cyanamid com
pany made a large profit; SO | tell the
facts. The plan was an extraordinary
accomplishment with as astounding
characteristics in relation to con-
structive work as the destruction in
France was astounding, compared
with other war destruction"

PROTESTANT CHURCHES PLAN
TO RAISE $l,33O,OOO,OOO FOR
FIVE YEARS. RELIGIOUS WORK
This Billion and Third Dollars Is To Be In Addition To Many
Hundred Million Dollars Already Subscribed in Denomina
tonal Campaigns; Will Assist Colleges, Hospitals and
Homes, Foreign Missions and Other EvangeIstc Efforts

Atlantic City, N. J., Jan. 9.-The
budget of the Inter- Church World
Movement to be used in ordinating
the energies of the Protestant denom-
inations for the evangelization of the
world, was approved today at the con-
ference of 1.40O church leaders.
The budget calls for the expendi-
ture of 1880, 100000 in the next five
years. 1t provides for evangelistic
work in America and the foreign field,
proper financing of hospitals and
homes, liberal awards to struggling
colleges, wages to both ministers and
missionaries.
Three hundred and twenty millions
are to be expended in 1920. Presby-
terians and Methodists joined in pro-
testing the original selection of the
period between April 81 and May Q
as the time for the drive to raise this
years quota. DR.. Nolan r. Best, a
Presbyterian, complained that these
dates would conflict with the Presby
terian "every member canvass, and
moved that the drive be deferred to
February 1921, 1921.
DR.. David c. Downey of New York,
a Methodist. called attention to dec
laration of the Methodist leaders that
followers of that faith should partici-
pate in no other drive until after
Methodisms' centenary fund of $112,-
100000 is completed DR.. Downey said
the world surveys of the Inter
Church World Movement which it was
proposed TO use as a basis for the
100000 drive are incomplete
and inconclusivc."
After considerable discussion, the
administration plan to have the cam
paign this year was adopted.
Methodists and Presbyterians as
serted they could not be participating
bodies without first gaining consent
of the ruling bodies of their denomi-
nations.
4 Another discussion occurred over
the manner If Nhich the funds TO be
raised in the cooperative "in gather
ings" are to be apportioned John
d. Rockefeller. Jr., proposed that all
money received through the central
treasury, aside from the several de-
nominational funds, be distributed
among the various active denomina-
tions pro rata.
substitute plan proposed that the
general fund be apportioned on the
basis of actual collections made by
denominations, When a fight seemed
imminent the question was referred to
the general committee to be appointed
later.

Gov LARRAZ0L0 URGES
STATE CONTROL OF ALL
UNAPPR0PRIATED LAND


Denver, Colo. Jan. 9.-Western
states governors, arriving here today
for conferences to be followed by a
trip to Washington in drive to pro-
cure greater land development. are not
Yet agreed upon what course should
be pursued to obtain this develop
ment.
One faction, said to be supported
by the executives of the southwestern
states, would inaugurate a fight TO
have the government turn over all un-
reserved and unappropriated public
land to the states in which such lands
are located. while the opposing fac
tion, comprising in the main the gov
ernors from the northwest, is said to
be intent upon securing federal aid in
big western reclamation projects, and
fears that any injection of a fight to
procure the public domain for the
states uses, will have approximately
the effect of tossing a heavy monkey
wrench into an intricate piece of op-
Grating machinery.
Governor Larrazolo of New Mexico
is said to take the stand that the
states can best benefit by having the
lands turned over for such uses as
the states may desire to put them.
Every inch of unappropriated and
unreserved domain should be relin-
quished to the states" said Larrazolo.
New Mexico. like many other west
ern states is large in point Of size
and small in population and therefore
somewhat limited in resources. We
want to go before congress and state
that we are no longer minors but are
now full grown and consequently
capable of managing the lands which
for the past 140 years the federal
government has held in trust for US.
If we can secure these lands our deA
velopment will be an assured fact"

The socialists fight for reinstate-
