UGOSLAyIA TO SUPPRESS
GOMMUNISTIC PROPAGANDA

Belgrade, Jan. 1.-Comunism will be
suppressed and oommunistic propaganda
prevented in Jugoslavia until vote has
been taken in the constituent assembly,
said an official announcement made public
here. This step has been taken by the
government 'in the interest Of constitu-
tional liberty" says the announcement,
"The seditious actions of Bolfbewki
in abusing the generous political liberty
accorded by the State" the announce
ment asserted, have begun to jeopardize
the benefits the nation won at the cost
Of sanguinary sacrifices.
II adds that any orders for general
strike will be destroyed and those re-
sponsible for them will be imprisoned, but
freedom of speech and press Will be re-
tanned unless utilized for vilifying the
state and demoralizing the public.

The work of the Joint Reviewing
Committee will be supplemented by nm
extension of and improvement upon the
methods of handling differences and
grievances which were in effect prior 10
the war. Each division superintendent

the local chairmen of the engine and

diction. nj which either side may pre-
sent matters for consideration. Each
general superintendent will have n
monthly meeting with the general CHAIR

40 BACK To rILL THE SOIL
Famine Sufferers Are Sent Home
TO Raise Crops
ASSOCIATED Press)

New York, May 11.-Hundreds OF
thousands of famine sufferers who
were concentrated In refugee camps
In China during the winter have
been compelled by authorities to re-
turn to their home provinces and at
tempt raising new crops this year.
This action was taken, according
to cable advices received from Pek-
ing by the China famine fund, be-
cause officials considered 1t neces-
sary for the good Of the entire pop
ulation that efforts be made for
harvest this year throughout the
famine area. As the camp refugees
were generally well fed during recent
months, they were picked to pass the
summer months at their former
homes.

WILLYS OVERLAND
PLANS FINANCING
Proposed Issue of SIS, 100000
to $20,00O,000 Has Been
Underwritten.

Plans for the permanent financing
through first mortgage bonds OF the
Willys-Overland Company are nearing
completion. An issue of between s15,-
OOO,O and 100000. 600 has been under
written by strong banking group and
an offering in time to catch the July re-
investment funds would cause no sur
prise. The Willys-Overland Company
has made a striking improvement in it's
financial position during the last few
months and at present its cash on hand
exceeds $7,O00.000
The purpose of the financing supple
mented by the present cash on hand
will be to pay off bank loans aggregat-
ing about S21, 100000. Financing to the
extent of s20,0O0,000 in the form of s
per cent. bonds would not only take care
of all floating debt but provide a sub
stantial amount of working capital.
Because of certain minor objections
to the proposed financing plan the bank
ing interests are not ready TO announce
their plans formally. There is reason
to expect, nevertheless, that an improve
ment in the bond market situation, which
is confidently expected within the next ten
days, would permit the offering of those
bonds for public subscription. Bankers
are confident also that the setup of the
compaay's financial position as a result
of economies and efficiency projects and
collections will be favorable to the early
distribution Of the new bonds

INVESTMENT NOTES.
A Good Local Utility bond.

The New York Gas and Electric
Light. Heat and Power Company's first
SIS, due in 194S. provide a safe medium
for the investment of funds for those
who prefer a local company. In 1901 the
company was consolidated with the Edi-
son Illuminating Company as the New
York Edison Company. controlled by
the Consolidated Gas Company. The
New York Gas Company. directly or in
directly, owns and operates practically
all electric lighting plants in Manhattan
and the cty's high tension electric wire
subway system. In all of the last ten
years, the earnings after all expenses
and other deductions, of the New York
Edison Company, have exceeded interest
charges more than three times over.
In other words through the war period.
perhaps as lean a one as public utility
concerns ever will experience, not only
were its fixed charges earned with a
wide margin, but the surplus available
for the New York Edison Companys
stock was sufficient TO permit the pay
ment of per cent. annual dividends.
Currently quoted at a price which gives
an immediate yield of about 6 per
cent, the bonds provide a moderately
long term investment of high standing.
There are $15,000,000 of them outstand-
ing and the mortgage is closed.
