SHANTUNG QUESTION
IS Believed NEARER
PEkCEABLE SOLUTION
fRy Associated Pressl

TOXIC, Sept. 16-Belief that i'm
migration problems will not be in
cluded in the agenda of the confer
ence on the limitation of armament
and far east questions at Washington
is held in this city. 1t is declared
that this question will not be dis
cussed at the conference because both
Japan and the United States hope for
direct settlement. 1t is understood
the note from Washington regarding
the agenda of the conference did not
mention immigration, and 1t is be-
lieved Japan will not insist upon its
inclusion.
The Nichi Nichi Shimbun said that
this was the feature of the present
negotiations regarding immigration
diplomatic situation, and added that
would be pushed later when favor
able opportunity was presented.
Cabinet Studies u. s. Note
The American note on the agenda
and also the Shantung question, it is
learned, were considered at Tuesday S
cabinet meeting, which decided to
make public the correspondence con.
corning Shantung, including the text
of the latest proposal to China, the
belief being expressed that publicity
was the best way of handling this
problem.
Reports that the American govern
ment was interesting itself in the ar
rangement of an equitable solution Of
the Shantung question have caused
great satisfaction in Japanese circles
According to the Asaiah Shimbun
Foreign Minister Uchida told the cabi
net he was hopeful of smoother pro
gress now for the Shantung negotia
tions.
Proposals Liberal
Japan's proposals to China relative
to the restoration of Shantung are con
sidered by newspapers as most liberal
and belief is expressed that they form
basis for negotiations which may
clear away the controversy over the
future status of Shantung.
The Asahi Shimbun points out tina
other interested powers could partici
pate in the negotiations for the open
ing up of the interior of Shantung.
"Japan's abandonment of an exclu
sive settlement of the Shantung mat
ter and her preferential rights there
and the restoration of customs" tn,
newspaper continues, constitute new
features in Japan's program of resti
tuition"

MARKETING UNDER WAY
Handling of First Bale Illustrates Ef'
 fectiveness of Cooperative Plan

Little Rock, Sept 1.-The Oklaho- ma Cotton Growers Association, or ganized under the same plan as that under which the Arkansas Cotton Growers Cooperative Association is being formed, already has begun mar |keting it's cotton.
 A copy of the current issue of the official newspaper of the Oklahoma association has been received at the headquarters of the Arkansas asso- lciation, in the old county courthouse, The newspaper contains photograph of the first bale delivered to the asso- citation and of the grower and his family. The grower was T. w. Lind say of Fleetwood, Okla, and to him goes the honor of being the first man | ill the world to deliver bale of cotton for sale through a purely CO., operative marketing association ham, ding cotton exclusively.
 The bale was delivered to the Rock Island railroad station at Terrall, OL,a., August IS, and was billed to the associations order in care of the compress of Chickasha, the nearest compress point.
 Mir. Lindsay received as an advance on his cotton 60 per cent of the esti- mated value at that date as fixed by the Board of Directors. The estimated value was B cents pound and the advance was $39 on his 50O-pound bale.
 ''There was no red tape to un- wind in getting this advance" says 1.-the newspaper. "Mr. Lindsay simply followed the plan worked out for handling association cotton,"

The effect of higher prices of cot ton in the South is going to be good on business in general, even though there will not be much to sell. It lifts that feeling of depression and lets the sunshine in and brings the smile back to gloomy faces The mental attitude has more to do with the trend of business than one would immagine. A man who has work that ought to be done and the mondy to do it with will not cut loose and have it done If he has fit of the blues. Drive the blues away and watch him get busy. Then we must consider that a small crop of cotton will bring as much or more money than would a full crop have brought. In our opinion we will see a great and a favorable change in everything that pertains to business in general.

Speaking of big business, did you know that the biggest business in Am erica is farming? Where this big busi- ness has fallen down in the control of its business operations has been the lack of business organization. We have had plenty of radical organiza- ton, which like all radical organiza- ions, has spread propaganda, recited grievances and accomplished noth- ing, Now we see organization being perfected along business lines by conservative men that listens like the farmers have not only taken a leaf out of big business methods, but nave literally taken the whole book.

Why should there be any objection to raising the millage limit on special school tax? If majority of the peo- pie wish to increase the tax rate in order that they may have school they ought to bd allowed to do it, If any district can raise ample money on a lower rate they will still have the privalege of voting only such tax as will meet their requirements Money is the poorest thing that you can leave your children. An education and training for life is the greatest. Let's do that, even if we have to economize on a few gallons of gasoline to pay the additional tax

Improvement Noted in South

Washington, Sept. 12.-Conditions throughout the South now reflect a greatly improved tone, officials said tonight. Both the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board reported a aessened demand for credit from that section. The view was expressed by high officials that the purchasing pow CT of the South should be sustained through the winter as result of the improvement in the cotton market.
 Better business in the South, it was said, may be expected to have it's ef- feet upon the country generally, and by a reduction in the credit needs et the cotton states make available more money for other sections.

PAROLED MEN MAKE GOOD
Complaints Made Against Less Thar
 5 Per Cent, Statistics Prove.

Little Rock, Sept 10.-According to la report compiled yesterday in the offices of the Arkansas Penitentiary lCommission, total of 317 convicts were paroled between January l, 1918 and March 1, 1921. Twenty-three or the paroles were issued since January 1, 1921.
 During the period the report lists Under the parole law, 229 men would be eligible for discharge, as provision is made for releasd of paroled con- victs after they have completed six months of their paroles with good rec ords, The last paroles recorded were of February T. 1921, which was more than six months ago. The report bears date of September 1.
 The report says that little at tention hitherto had been paid either to calling for monthly reports on pa- roleh men. or to the recording of final discharges, and it is probable that there have been a considerably larger number of final discharges than are now of record
 The report shows the date of parole and the name and address of the em- ployer and bondsman of the paroled men, A careful check-up of the records was made, and it was found that less than three' per cent of the men pa- roled became parole violators, or had been complained about in any way.
