STRIKE NOT SETTLED.
Efforts of BRAND to Compromise DIFF
ferences Meet With Failure.

Paris, Sept. 21.-Efforts on the part
of Premier BRAND to settle the textile
strike at Roubaix and Tourcoing have
been futile. He tried to induce the
strikers and their employers to agree
to arbitration, with Daniel Vincent,
minister of public works, as arbiter,
but the employers are reported to have
refused to negotiate. The strikers ac-
copied the premier's plan.
The employers expressed Willingness
to deal directly with the strikers, it is
said.

New York. Sept. 19.-Although the
sleeves the thing, so far as size goes,
there's a lot to be said about sleeve
Ir:mming.
Chenille and cire ribbons are rivals
for attention this year.
In a Joseph frock of black, indie
structible chiffon wolfe, cire ribbon is
used with a lavish hand.

The huge angel sleeves which
reach to the wrist are. banded with
seven rows of this shiny ribbon. Fiji
teen rows encircle the full skirt.
Chenille, softer and more pliable,
is used most gracefully on the Rent
ner gown of drapella. The sleeves
long flowing and bell-shaped-are
heavily worked in chenille. The
same designs decorate the skirt of
this straight-lined frock.

RELIEF AHEAD
 FOR FARMERS
War Finance Corporation Is- sues Conference CalI-Condi- tions Touching Cotton Inter- ests to be Gone Over.

Washington, March 29.-The War Finance Corporation tonight issued a call for conference here April of southern bankers to discuss methods by which the exportation of southern agricultural products may best be financed. Announcement of the con- ference followed discussion of the farmers problems by the cabinet to- day after which it was said definite plans for farmer relief probably soon would be put forward.
 Announcement of the conference was confined to the bare statement of the call and date In the light of the days developments, however, it was regarded as the first step by the new administration looking to solution of the farmers difficulties.
 Several other such meetings are planned, it was stated. Secretary Hoover expects soon to meet with representatives of the agricultural in- dustry to talk over with them the problems which beset their industry Leaders of several farmers organiza- tions also are preparing to carry their kit of problems to the White House in the near future, probably before Congress gets far into the work of the extra session.
 Officials of the finance corporation desire, it was said, to explain to the southern bankers, on whose shoulders fall the burden of providing funds for the export of cotton and other pro- ducts of the soil, just how far the federal agency can go in supplying the money they seek. In this connec- tion, it was deemed likely that the treasury's position with respect to exports to Germany also would be made clear.
 The corporation already has ap- proved loan of $6,O0O,O00 for the financing of shipments to states in Central Europe and Secretary Mellen has said there was no objection to loans on exports to Germany provid- ed the finance corporation was given good security by the exporting houses.
 There have been indications on sev- eral occasions that the corporation was ready to extend aid in shipping to Czecho-Slovakia and Poland, al- though a public statement to that eff feet never has been made. In these two countries exporters have reported great opportunities for the marketing of cotton and other exclusively south ern products.
 While there was no official expres- sion tonight, it was apparently the programme of those officials having to do directly with the farming in-

Fayetteville, March 29.-The apple crop in Washington, Benton and other counties in the Northwest Arkansas fruit region will be practically total loss as the result of the drop in tenn perature last night to p degrees. All peaches and cherries were killed and strawberries in this section have been damaged at least 50 per cent The total damage will, it is believed, amount to approximately $3,000,000.
 Had the crops in this section ma tepialized as was expected, the fruit sections of Arkansas would have again been placed on a sound finan- cial footing, as there was every indi- cation of an unusually large harvest and the prospects for good market were excellent. However, the farm CTS are not altogether discouraged by the losses they sustained in the freeze. They believe that whatever proportion of the crops has been saved will bring sufficiently high prices to make up for some of the loss in production. But, however high the prices might be for the fruit shipped, the offset in the market can- not be sufficiently large to entirely repay for the heavy cut in production. Weather adversities are sometimes a blessing to the farmers and this is especially true in years when the pro- duction threatens to be so great as to oversupply the market, making prftable prices impossible But this was not the case this year. Although the harvest promised to be very large, there was every indication that the markets were in shape to handle the crop at prices which would have netted big revenues for the growers. Reports from the buying section were of an optimistic and cheering nature to the growers. who were an- ticipating an unprecedented year of success. Prof. c. R. Cooper main tains that between 10 and 20 per cent of the fruit crop is safe.

FRUIT DAMAGE

Little Rock, March 29.-The fruit crop of Northwest Arkansas, includ- ing peaches, cherries and all but ex- tremely late apples, have been killed by the low temperatures of the last two nights, and the strawberry crop has been damaged 25 to 30 per cent, in the opinion of state and federal agricultural experts here
 Senator Lee Cazort, president of the Arkansas State Senate, stated to- night that last nights frost complete ly destroyed his 400-acre peach crop in Johnson county. He says his loss is about $17,00O.

FIFTEEN ESSEN
 RIOTERS SLAIN
to Develop General Strike Has Failed-Order .Ap breaches to Foreign Offices Rarricaded.

Essen, Germany, March 29.-Fif teen rioters were killed and 40 others wounded in a clash with the security police here.
 The attempt to bring on general strike in this region has so far failed
 An exceptional status" has been proclaimed for Dortmund, Bochum, Gelsenkirchen and other points in Rhenish Prussia.
 The exceptional status" referred to presumably is similar to or identi- cal with the "nonmilitary state of siege" which has been put into force by the German authorities in parts of Central Germany affected by the communist disorders.
 With the exception of the minor outbreak in the American bridgehead region Monday, which was promptly and effectively dealt with by the American military police, the disor- ders reported in the foregoing are the first to be recorded in the Rhine area since the outbreak of the com munist rising in Prussian Saxony.
 Berlin dispatches filed late Monday night indicated some anxiety in gov ernmental circles over the develop ment of possible disturbances in the capital Tuesday, an attempt by the extremists to tie up the big industrial and other plants in a general strike being forecast. The Wilhelmstrasse was ordered closed to traffic and all the approaches to the foreign office and other government buildings were barricaded with barbed wire entangle- ments and guarded by troops.
 Last reports from Central Germany were that the situation had not ma terially changed, the principal trouble being sporadic outbreaks at points temporarily held by rioting bands which the security police had as yet failed to control in the roundup of rioters, in which these police forces were engaged.
