LABOR SHORTAGE IS
NOT CUTTING ACRES
Cotton and Corn Planting to
Be Normal, Says Cotton
Ginner Official

DALLAS. Texas, April 10.-Farm
labor shortage. which is threatening
TO become acute in Texas has not
caused farmers to reduce acreage
planted TO any appreciable extent, ac-
cording to S. ID. Frazer, secretary of
the Texas Cotton Ginners' associa-
tion. The wheat acreage will be re-
duced as compared with last year,
but the cotton and corn planting
probably will be normal, he said; and
an increase is likely in oats and small
grain.
The wheat acreage this year, ac-
cording TO Mr.. Frazer, is reduced
from 20 to 80 per cent under the
acreage planted this time last year.
The prolonged winter rains were
responsible for this decrease in cul-
tivation," he said, land to what ex-
tent the wet season has delayed the
farmers in their planting can not be
determined at this time. Continued
dry weather may remedy the situa-
tion considerably.
The demand for farm labor, al
though active now, will not reach the
acute stage until summer, in the
opinion Of Mr.. Frazer. The call for
labor to work the farms will begin to
come in the middle Of this month, ="
he declared. And from that time
on until harvesting time the demand
will increase as the season progresses.
With the improved agricultural ma
chinery now in use on the farms and
a spell of fair weather the farmer can
lay in his crops with .one or possibly
two helpers. In the summer months
and in the fall it is a different mat
ter. Then he must have an adequate
supply of labor to save his crop from
ruin.
The farm labor situation is more
acute in the northern and western
sections of the state than in the
southern and southwestern portions,
Mr.. Frazer said. He attributed this
to the presence of Mexican and other
foreign laborers in counties near the
border.

In Thc Assncinted Pres,l


LONDON, April 0.-Declaration
that the allies declined to sanction the
advance Of the French troops east Of
the Rhine and that statements of
French diplomats gave the impression
that the French would not take the
step alone is contained in the note
outlining the British attitude, sent to
Paris, says the London Times. En-
phasis is laid on the fact that grave
problems in connection with the exc
cution of the Versailles treaty may
arise in the future, it said. and il as
sumes that France will not act again
on its own initiative, otherwise the
work of the peace conference may be-
come futile.
Notwithstanding the insistence Of
France that there was not alternative
for her in the circumstances except
the occupation Of German territory
and her denial of statements that she
had acted without warning, officials
here view the note as conciliatory be-
cause Of the expressed desire Of the
French for an allied conference. The
view is emphasized by the fact that
Premied Lloyd George left today for
San Reno, although he stated yester-
day that he might postpone his de
parture He did not attend the
meeting of the supreme council here
today.
