CHURCH MAKES STUDY
OF THE LAND QUESTION

Is the absentee landlord an asset
to the community where his property
lies, or should system of taxation
be adopted so as to bring more land
under the ownership OF those who live
and work upon it? The Interchurch
World Movement Ia seeking an answer
to that question.
The church has found one Of its
difficulties in shifting population.
Only where the residence of the in
habitants Is fairly permanent can
church be built up on a lasting basis.
One cause of the shifting population
in farming sections is farm tenantry
The tenant often is a temporary resi-
dent, while the owner Of his land
frequently lives in a distant town and
takes no part in the community life
where his property is
SO the church Is studying the land
question. Questionnaires sent into
every county in the United States by
the Interchurch World Movement are
designed to supply facts as to the
proportion of tenants, the proportion
of land owners, the prospects of ten
ants to become land owners, the Ques
ton of whether tenantry conserves
fertility Of the soil as well as wher
the farm is operated by the owner
whether tenants families have lower
standard of living, how far the shift
ing of tenants from farm to farm in
terferes with membership and supper
of community institutions, what pro
portion OF landlords have only I
speculative interest in land values
whether the type Of lease prevalent II
these localities is fair to both thu
landlord and the tenant.
Tho question is asked whether rent
ed farms should be taxed upon a dit
ferent basis from those operated ant
occupied by the owners, and whethe
the Government should provide add
tional credit for the purchase Of Ian,
by persons now tenants.

STATE HEADMASTERS
KICK ON EXAMS
Graduates of Vermont Public Schools
Can't Pass College Requirements
To Investigate

BURLINGTON. Oct. S.-ThC Vert
mont State Teachers association in its
second DAYS session. waded through a
big program. including many conferences,
addresses and two banquetS. The State
HcadmaSters club held rather lively
session at which was developed a determ-
iued movement against the college en-
trance examination board the discussion
being led by Principal J. L. Colburn of
the Burlington high school. He said in
many instances pupils of the Burlington
high school had graduated with high
honors but had failed to pass the exami-
nations of the. board mentioned. He
mentioned cases in which pupils were
MT even informed of the subject they
had failed in.
In the past year no pupil of the Burl-
ington high school or the Rutland high
school has been able to get into colleges
which required this class of examina-
tions without conditions. Eighty per
cent If those who take these examina-
tions fail to pass them. Investigation
has developed what has appeared to be
discrimination against the pupils of pub
lie schools against those of private
schools.
1t was voted by the headmasters to in
vestigate the conditions alleged and if
ii was found that discrimination against
ruthc schools exists they would infu-
pnca graduates of Vermont high schools
to attend colleges which do not require
the conditions of the college entrance ex-
animation board.
At n conference of Union superintend-
ents it was voted as the sense of the
meeting that the annual convention of
the Vermont Teachers association was
100 long and should go back to the
former two day conventions. that being
from Thursday noon until Saturday so
as to avoid some of the small Interrupt
tions in the schools. The opinion was
expressed Ehat small towns not sup
porting high schools should pay the en-
tire tuition or more than they do now
for pupils attending high school in other
centers

HARDING WOULD
REJECT LEAGUE
Makes Flat Declaration to Western Au-
diences-Keep Out of League
Altogether

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. Son the far
thest westward swing of his campaigning,
Senator Harding urged yesterday that
the nation stay out of the Versailles
league of nations altogether and reject
the obligations of the league covenant.
Declaring that clarifying reservations
would never meet the requirements of
national security, he put before the voters
of Iowa and Nebraska a direct issue of ac-
cepting or declining membership in the
league.
Il do not want to clarity those obliga-
tions," he said. Il want to turn my
back on them. 1t is not Interpretation
but rejection that l am seeking. / under
stand the position of the Democratic nOmi-
nee and he understands mine. In simple
words, it is that he favors going into the
Paris league and l favor staying out"
The senator's declaration on the league
was made at q forenoon gathering of sew
eral thousand in the Coliseum at Des
Moines and later was repeated in varied
form at several smaller Iowa cities and
at a night meeting in the Omaha audito-
rum. In Is speeches during the day he
also re-stated his position on various other
issues of the campaign and during his adj
dress here devoted half hour to a plea
for enforcement of law without terror
ism or oppression.

ously in a days campaigning of eight
speeches, closing with a large meeting
here last night in the Ryman auditorium.
With vigor restored apparently. Gov
ernor Cox advanced what he termed ''prac-
teal" as we'll as moral arguments for
American membership in the league.
Reiterating that it was pledge" to
Americans who participated in the war he
declared that its disarmament provisions
could save the nation $4G5. 900 900 next
year. The league would renew European
credit for purchase of American prod

OF Interest to FARMERS
THE WORLDS GREATEST MANU-.
FACTURER

The dairyman is manufactures
and the dairy cow is machine by
which alfalfa, cow peas, silage, grass
and many other products of the farm
are converted into milk.
The cow is a most wonderful ma
chine from two standpoints and her
value is inestimab1e. No farm is COM
pletely equipped without this machine.
She is as necessary on the farm
cook stove is in kitchen. Her re-
1ationship to successful farming is as
close as the relationship of tobacco
to cigar factory or sugar to a candy
factory.
], The utility of this wonderful ma
chine is many sided. She furnishes
market right at home in the farm
er's own door yard, saving freight
and selling expense. She furnishes
market for many things produced
on the farm that are too bulky to
ship. No matter how good the market
was for siIage in the K1ondike it
would be impossible to take advan-
tage of it because of transportation
but when converted into butter, the
markets of the world are accessible.
Much of the material out of which
this machine manufactures butterfat
would otherwise be wasted; conse-
quently the dairy cow becomes an abb
solute necessity in economical farm
ing She not only makes the market
ing of these products possible by
putting them in condensed form
but she increases their value many
| times. She not only increases the
value of these products but she
enhances the value of the farm by
adding to it's fertility and increasing
it's production A farm that will yield
| thirty bushels of wheat and sixty
| bushels of corn to the acre is much
more valuable than a farm producing
fifteen bushels of wheat and thirty
bushels of corn. The other side of
| this proposition is the dairy cows
contribution to humanity She manu-
features an article for which there
I, is no substitute and without which
the nation would become weak and
] inactive, and for the want of which
thousands would die in infancy

THE CAR SHORTAGE

As explanation for why his
wholesale house cannot get cars in
which to ship material to western
Kansas travelling representative
of a Kansas City house who does not
make this territory very often, made
the statement last week to a WaKee-
ney business man that tsthe cars are
all being sent out here for you fellows
to ship out your wheat in" wherupon
the local business man landed upon
him with few remarks about ship
ping wheat. He cited him to the hum
dreds of piles of wheat which are on
the ground in this country without
the least protection; to the thous-
ands of bushels which are stored in
open bins and to the other thousands
of bushels which are stored in both
new and old granaries simply because
the railroad company cannot, or does
not, furnish cars in which this wheat
can be shipped out There is no use
of anyone coming out here from the
cities and making break such as
this man did.
