II MILLION FOR
WIS. HIGHWAYS

A wrong impression rather general
ly prevails, the highway commission
finds, as to where the $27,0G0,O0O
available for highway construction
work in Wisconsin for the year 1921
came from and it is now.
In the first place, four million of
the amount is the unexpended bal
ance from 1920. Then to take the sums
in their order as they appear in the
highway commissions report:
For federal aid roads there is ST.
103,625 available. One-third of this
comes from the federal government
and in order that the state may Sc
cure it, the state itself must raise
one-third of the ,$7103,625 and the
counties the remaining third. Of the
$2,647,510 available for state aid roads
the state contributes $7S5,000 and the
counties the balance.
The $976,995 available for county
aid roads the $1,O92, 4O6 available for
county aid bridges, bond issues for
state trunk highways, aggregating
$5,813,292, the $4,000 available for
state trunk highway maintenance, the
$3,085, 900 available for maintenance
Of county trunk systems, quarries and
pits products $4,000, machinery
$800,454 for emergency use $268,948,
are all raised by the counties. The ST..
100000 available for maintenance
from the state comes from automo-
bile licenses. This accounts for the
whole $27,OOO,OOO available for 1921
for roads and bridges in Wisconsin.

At the initial meeting the Marin
cite county 100000 acres in 1921" land
clearing campaign, held at Criviptz,
John Swenhart, state director of land
clearing campaign, held at Crivitz,
He declares that upper Wisconsin is
in a safer financial position than any
other agricultural section beause its
ability to clear land, to make new acres
to increase production, gives it stand
ing with leading bankers that older
districts cannot enjoy because they
are at the peak of their production
power They cannot increase their
productive value, he said.
The statement also shows that the
day of the lumberman is gone in Wis
consin, because clearing is progress
ing at more rapid rate than the cut
ting of timber. This state of affair was
reached for the first time in 1920. The
statement reads in part:
'sThe year 1921 witnessed several
significant things in connection with
the developent of former timber lands.
From a condition where former tim
Der area has been increased each year,
by the removal of timber, Wisconsin
has developed to point where we are
clearing more acres each year than
we are cutting timber from. In other
words, the day Of the lumberman's SUI
premacy is passing rapidly.
Increased settlement of the upper
counties of Wisconsin exceeds very
much of the settlement of an equal area,
former timber land or otherwise. No

Is CARS RlFLED
AT CUDAHY, Wis.

A squad of Milwaukee police was
rushed to Cudahy to aid Northwestern
road detectives in trailing a gang of
freight car bandits who Friday night
rifled 13 merchandise cars near the
Chicago road crossing. Silks and
mems clothing, valued at between
$4,000 and $4,000 were stolen.
The robbery marked the third in
two nights. The value of the loot Sc
cured in the thret robberies was esti-
mated by Northwestern officials at
more than $4,000.
The bandits broke open 13 cars
and emptied five of them of their en-
tire contents. The stolen goods were
dumped out of the cars onto the right
of-way and later picked up in motor
trucks. Three truck loads Of ex-
pensive silks were carted away while
as much was left beside the tracks by
the robbers who evidently were fright
ened away.

British Naval Experts
Consider U. S. Proposals

Three or four days must elapse be-
fore the British committee which is
considering the subject of naval
arrnaments will be able to conclude
its work. This committee, which is
headed by Arthur ]. Balfour, head
II the British delegation, and in
cludes all the British delegates, is
working hard in daily sessions with
the assistance of number of the
British naval experts upon the
American proposal.
Regarding the point that has been
made in favor of the American plan
that by favoring submarines, rather
than expensive battleships, weaker
iations may be placed on plane of
Equality as such means of defense
will be within their financial re.
sources, it is explained in authorita-
tive quarters that the British object
decidedly to any plan that would
tend to cheaper wars, and thereby
render them more likely to occur.
The British suggestion that each
OF the naval powers retain at least
one naval building yard capable of
turning out one ship a year does not
appear to be understood by Ameri-
can naval officers particularly IA
mlliar with construction problems.
There was no suggestion in the
American limitation proposals that
any yards be scrapped, and so far as
navy yard facilities in this country
are concerned, all will be needed, It
is said, in the maintenance and repair
of the retained fleet.

The French attitude in a general

2. France would give Kouane

n 1898, provided Great Britain gave
up Wei Hei Wei and Japan Sham

iame time, and the Port Arthur
oeninsula.
3. France would not be I'M
willing to surrender its extra-territor.
al privileges were other powers will
ing to do the same. France gave up
these privileges in Japan in 1906 and
was in negotiation with Turkey to
give them up there in 1914 when the
war came. However, the French feel
that extra-territoriality should be
maintained until it is clear that the
Chinese republic can give adequate
'ecurity and justice to foreigners.
4. The French colony of Indo-
China did rot belong to China but

Arms Conference
Wrestles With
Far East Problem
Delegation Heads Of Nine
Powers Go Into Conference
To Outline Respective
Policies.

Washington, Nov. i7.-(By The
Associated PresS.)-Heads OF the
delegations OF the nine powers par
ticipating in discussion OF far eastern
questions at a meeting today decided
TO proceed first with the considera-
ton OF problems relating to China
before entering upon other far east
ern questions.
The other questions, It was decided,
will be taken up in the order listed
by the tentative agenda suggested
some time ago by the American gov
ernment.
Washington. Nov. 10y The
Associated Press.) - Preliminary
accommodating gave way to more di-
/ rect negotiation today in the cndeav-
ors OF the armament conference to
find a solution for the problems OF
the far east.
Sitting as a special committee on
the far eastern situation, the heads
OF the nine delegations went into
conference to outline the respective
policies by which each will be guided
and to work out a plan Of procedure
that will give each of these policies a
fair show.
Basis of Exchanges.
The 10 points presented yesterday
by China with the general backing
of the United States formed the basis
of today's exchanges, which were
designed to develop step by step the
exact attitude of the nine delegations.
No one expected this process to go
very far at today's meeting, although
the discussion of program was con-
sidered certain to draw out the
opinions OF the powers as to the
relative Importance of the topics be-
fore them.
The opinion OF the American dele
CATION, which appeared to have con-
siderable support among representa-
tives Of the other powers, was that
the far east engotiations need not
be complicated by subcommittee
to deal with special subjects.
Independent Pathways.
With today's meeting the far east
ern discussions and those relating to
armament reduction began to follow
entirely independent pathways, and
there was growing impression that
sooner or later all the interested ma
tions would come around to tie view
that the fortunes of the two are not
inseparably linked. The United
States from the first has felt that
solution of the far east questions
would be great aid in preserving
peace, but the American delegates /
apparently do not feel that the
armaments program need be a fall
ure if the far eastern discussions fall
short of an agreement.
Secretary Hughes today called a
meeting of the American delegates
for 2:30 o'clock. The purpose Of the
meeting was not announced, but it
was understood to be for discussion
of the plans of delegation heads for
dealing with Pacific and far eastern
questions
