DISARMAMENT PLAN
IS GIVEN 4 HEALING
SUPREME CCUEC!L CONFERS
REGARDING TIE FAILURE OF
GERMANY TO DiSARM.
The EvsntuaIity Of a German Sitting
Via, the Council Hinges Upon
Action OF f, representatives. Re-
garding VeXed Question.

Paris.-The supreme council, COM
posed of representatives of Great
Britain, Italy, France, Belgium and
Japan, on January "a heard the mill
tary experts and later conferred to-
gether regarding the failure of Ger
many to diSarm as provided for by the
treaty of Versailles. The experts We're
asked to make Il detailed report on
the subject, with recommendations re-
garding measures to insure execution
of the disarmament clauses of the
treaty.
Tie British prime minister, David
Lloyd George, and the president of the
French council, ArStde BRAND, it is
understood, desire an opportunity to
talk over the different phases of thc
PREPARATIONS question before the sub
ject comes up for discussion at the
full council. Thus the change in the
councils program.
In this connection the premiers are
said to be considering whether 1T Is
feasible and advisable to have the
German representatives sit with the
council before the final decision on
PREPARATIONS is taken. The British
delegation is believed to favor invit-
ing the Germans to take part in the
discussion after the allies come to an
understanding among themselves.
Pending decision on this ques-
ton, Herr Bergman, the German
delegate, it is expected, will confer
with Louis Loucheur, the French min
lister of liberated regions, and it is re-
ported he will make an official offer
to pay two billion marks in gold with
in a year, One-fourth of that amount
in cash.
The eventuality of a German being
invited to sit with the council de-
ponds partly upon Herr Bergmann's
reply to NJ. Loucheur, who will ask
him if Germany has any proposition
to make before the allies shall decide
finally upon what course they shall
pursue to enforce execution of the
treaty.
The premiers are understood to be
greatly alarmed at the situation of
Austria and will endeavor to find some
way for the continued existence of
that country. The eastern question.
Greece and the treaty Of Sevres will
be taken up after the council has fin
ished considering the Austrian stu
alton.
Resumption of trade relations with
Russia by the allied governments,
which would entail sort of cOndi-
tiOnal recognition of the soviet regime
in Moscow, appeared to be topic
which will be discussed seriously in
the next week.

of the United States in Paris and
elsewhere in France who have made

UNREST IS AIDED ['y
SCHOOL CONDITIONS
SUCH is CHARGE MADE By PRESl-
DENT OF UNITED STATES
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Says Short Sighted Policy in Failing
to Recognize Dignity Of Teaching
Profession Has Led. TO Class
consciousness in Profession.

Decentralization in the pub
&c schools are contributing; much to
unrest throughout the country, and
the situation has become so serious
that the states and the nation should
cooperate to remedy them, according
to Il statement issued by Joseph Fl:
Defrees, president of the United
States Chamber of Commerce.
"Our short-sighted policy in failing
to recognize the dignity of the teach
ing profession has led to Il class con
sciousness in that profession which
has made itself felt in the classroom
and left its indelible imprint upon the
impressonAble minds of the young"
declared Mr.. Defrees, who adds that
of the 100000 public school teachers in
the United States:
One hundred thousand are under
the age of 21;
Thirty thousand have no education
beyond the eighth grade;
One hundred and fifty thousand
have no education beyond the third
year high school: and
Four hundred and eighty thousand.
or fOur-fifths of the total, have not
had two years of special training, the
minimum required in other countries.
"One reason why radicalSm has not
made the same Roadway in the United
States that it has in Europe Mr. De
frees continues, as the fact that hun
dreds of men occupying positions of
the greatest Importance" in this coun-
try began life as poor boys. But what
have we got to say of the inequalities
of education?
Eighteen thousand classrooms in
this country are said to have stood
idle last year through lack of teachers.
Taking an average of twenty-five pu-
pills to each classroom, that means
100000 children We're either denied
education altogether, or were crowded
into their claSsr0OE;s, where they were
given such education as they could get
from an overworked underpaid, I'M
dertrained teacher

The Mortgage Litter

The hog has aptly been called the great American
Mortgage Litter. The good farmer raises hogs
to buy land to grow to raise more hogs
When soil was cheap the scrub hog was able to bear
the burden of land investment. AS land values grew
higher the burden became heavier and the scrub could
no longer lift the mortage The grade hog managed
it for WHILE until land values scared again. But now
the grade hasn't the heft to lift the mortgage. THERE'S
only hog that fits highpricedfarm and-thep pure
bred He has the stamina, the vigor and the body
building qualities that enable him to get right under
those heavy land investments and carry them along.
