President Harding and Director Cen
eral Davis of the railroad administra-
ton having worked out plan for the
relief of the railroads, the President
last week presented 1t to congress In
a message and asked for legislative
action. Briefly. he urged that the War
Finance corporation be permitted by
congress to purchase about S50O.OOO,-
600 of securities deposited with the
railroad administration as evidence OF
the railroad debts to the government,
the railroad administration then to ap-
ply the purchase price against claims
which the roads have against the gov
eminent, thus giving the roads funds
that they greatly need. There Is no
thought to ask congress for additional
funds" said Mr. Harding. "No added
expense, no investment is required on
the part Of the government; there Is
no added liability, no added tax bur-
den."
Less definite was the part of the
message asking congress to approve
assistance to farmers and cattle men.
But his plan here, too, rests on added
authority for the War Finance cor
pOration, and later Senator kellogg
introduced the administration bill pro-
viding that whenever the corporation
is of the opinion that conditions aris-
ing out Of the war have resulted In
an abnormal surplus accumulation Of
any staple agricultural product. which
is normally exported In substantial
quantity, and that the ordinary bank
ing facilities are inadequate to carry
such products until they can be ex-
ported advances may be made for
periods not exceeding one year and
up to $1,OOO,OOO,OOO.

have so long fiouted are deaf to their
calls. Even the United States, al

government, through a note from Sec

Yanks Dog Tag
Saved His Life

Los Angeles, Cal-The little "dog
tag" of the army is all that saved "Pfi-
vate William Ausman No. 169393'
from grave in the Potter's field here
following his death by falling from a
downtown building.
When Victory Post Of the American
Legion learned that the former soldier
faced a pauper's burial, arrangements
were made for military funeral. A
firing squad and delegation of Lee
gionnaires attended the services at the
mortuary, but when the cortege drew
up to newly-dug grave in the Pot
ter's field, the Legion men objected to
the burial there of their comrsde. The
body was inferred at Forrest Lawn
cemetery.
An investigation by the Legionnaires
revealed that several World war heroes
who died friendless and penniless had
been buried inathe Petter's field. The
bodies will be sdisinterred.

We'd Say He Wasn't
a Typical President
lRu Associated Press. }


Buenos Aires.-riPresident Hlpollto
Yrigoyen Of Argentina is reputed to
have an aversion to having his picture
taken and it is said that he has per-
sistently refused to sit before pro-
fessional photographer.
This reputation is confirmed by the
government organ, La Epoca, which
takes an anti-government paper to
task for saying that at the instance of
one of the departments of the govern
ment, photographs Of the president
were distributed amcag crowds who
gathered at the government house to
see military parade reviewed by him
on Columbus Day. The intimation was
that the photographers were distribut-
ed for political effect.
"The entire country knows" says
La Epoca, in denying the responsible
ity of the government in the matter,
Chat the President of the republic, DR..
Yrigoyen never has consented to sit
in front of camera. Of the many pic
lures of him which circulate there is
none that can be called authentic, al
though some snapshots which he could
not prevent being taken, reproduce his
features with more or less perfection
| This everybody knows, just as every
body knows his simplicity and his re-
pugnance for this sort of exhibition

AN UNFORTUNATE EXHIBITION

It is unfortunate that in a spirit of generos-
fly and with the best of intentions, the Kan
sas City Times voiced welcome to the MEM
bers of the American Legion that apparently
produced undesirable results. The Times said,
among other things, 'The town is yours, Scruff
it up to your hearts content. Shove us back
if we crowd Push us off the street"
Of course the Times did not intend to be I'M
derstood literally nor would large majority
of the members of the Legion so understand it.
But the invitation evidently started a spirit of
rowdyish, aided by leniency in enforcing the
prohibition law, with the result that newspap-
ers are now printing rather astounding accounts
of happenings at the convention. According to
reports, waste cans were thrown in front of
passing automobiles, crap games were played
in the middle of the lobby of a prominent hotel
many intoxicated men participated in the pa
triotic parade, the clothing was torn from a
young lady walking on the street, the contents
of small store were thrown into the street
and several plate glass windows were broken
AS a climax, riot occurrd at 2 o'clock a. m OF
the last night of the convention with the result
that % policemen were utterly unable to quel
the disturbance and 100 policemen were finally
called into action, only to be met with forcible
resistance
All this is unfortunate for everybody con
cerned, particularly for the American Legion
While the people of Kansas City, generous
hearted as they always are, desired the veter
ans to have the best time possible, and wer'

Picric Acid Supply
Nears Exhaustion

No more picric acid for Wisconsin
farmers is the statement of John
Swenehart of the agricultural engin-
eering department Of the University
of Wisconsin.
"Wisconsin's share of $4,000 pounds
Of picric acid is all delivered, and we
have already turned down many or
ders. The total supply of the salvaged
war picric acid in the country three
months ago was 100000 pounds.
This was divided among the states"
Although it sold to the farmers for
8 liz cents pound in carlots, pieric
acid cost the government 30 cents a
pound to make not including the cost
Of eartridging and packing. Twenty
per cent dynamite on the other hand
costs only Is cents pound. Thus, the
manufacture of picric acid for peace
time consumption would be losing
proposition.

disposed to spare neither effort or expense
that could contribute to that end they did not
anticipate that hearty welcome would have
such consequence. The American Legion del
egates Were~not lot of rowdies, were not in
tentionally disturbers of the peace, and will not
approve the proceedings above outlined. It is
altogether probable that much of the disturb
ance was due to the activities Of men who were
not delegates - perhaps not even veterans.
However that may be- the Legion gets the
blame, justly or unjustly.
The affair should be lesson not only to
Legion leaders but to authorities in cities that
may in the future entertain the Legion con-
vention. There should be an understanding
that the entertainment will contain a large
measure of fun, but that it will be innocent
fun, orderly and in harmony with the spirit
OF the Legion. It will be extremely unfortun-
ate If similar happenings in the future give the
country wrong impression of the purposes,
efforts and work of the Legion, or adversely
effect the campaign for soldiers bonus.

u. S. Must Meet
Trade Credits
Norwegian Trade Depends Upon the
Length of Time the U. S.
Extends Credit.
(By Associated Press.)

Observation-Disclosures export trade
in Norway, which made tremendous
strides since 1914, is menaced accord
ing to trade experts, by the high rate
of exchange of the American dollar
and which has already affected AM
erican exports with various other Eu-
r0pean countries.
Figures of Norway's imports for
1919, recently made public, show that
about one-third of the Norwegian i'm
ports we're from the United States.
American exporters gained hold
in the Norwegian markets at a time
when Norway's chief source of supply
was closed. Requirements which could
not be covered in the regular markets
nearer home, as was the custom prior
to the war, had to be taken from AM
erica, or not at all.
It is now being pointed out, how
ever, by Norwegian trade experts, that
in order that the United States may
maintain this position in Norwegian
trade, it is essential that American
manufacturers stipulate Virtually the
same terms Of credit as other coun-
tries.
The dollar now costs more than
twice as many kroner as it did prior
to 1914. This high dollar rate makes
imported American goods SO expensive
that similar goods from other sources
homemade or imported from Ger,
many, can be sold cheaper and which
eventually will crowd American ar
ticles off the market.
Merchants suggest that if the trade
relations between Norway and the
United States are to be maintained a
anything like their present level, i
will be necessary for the American
dealers to grant long terms of credi
and for the Americans to buy NOR,
goods of Norwegian origin.

WOMEN FAIL AS
CALLED TO DUTY
New York Women "Cops" Fail to
Make Good When Called to Guard
School Corners Today.

New York City-Hundreds of New
York's women reserve traffic cops, call
ed for duty for the first time, took one
look out into the cold, dismal rain
this morning and decided this was mo
time for christening their stunning
new uniforms.
Just how many of the $500 ordered
out had reported could not be ascer-
tanned. j. F. Dwyer, former police in
spector in charge of the reserves, was
scurrying around in the rain trying to
find out. Calls to police stations from
which traffic police squads work, elicit
ed information that few of the women
had reported there.
Newspaper reporters, visiting public
school corners which the women were
detailed to guard, found few women on
duty and those presented anything but
the striking picture the women had
expected to make. Their navy blue
jackets and skirts and their light blue
vests were invisible beneath rain gar
ments of various description. Some
sheltered their semi-miltary caps with
umbrellas others sheltered them in con-
venient doorways, venturing out only
to help school children safely across
tho street.
| Some women were apparently dis
trustful of the efficiency of reserve
officers of their own sex. others, who
ordinarily entrusted their children to
the care of the regular policemen
were observed conducting them past
the women officers and right up te
the doors of the school buildings.

Look Ahead
a Few Months

THE machinery of business can t,lag or
| lie idle long. Each concerns survival
depends on profitable activity, but pro-
duction and sales depend on demand and
the buying impulse must be generated hy
advertising. Which is another way OF
saying that business can not n1ooe Uthort
printing.
Not to be caught mapping, executives
are re-charging the batteries that will
spin the engine of business. They are
planning their advertising for the new
year and arranging for the printing.
Once business gets under Roadway the
firm that ism ready with its printing and
advertising will be handicapped. The
people who'v We been watching the world
go by viii suddenly want sales printing
but will be stalled in the stampede.

reason to believe that China would soon be in

Minister to China Reinsch that the total debt of
China is only $900000,000, or about $3.50 per
capita. In the United States the per capita debt
is $3.50. The present trouble in China is the
inability to raise and collect taxes from the

There is little likelihood that the ornaments
conference will take steps to reduce armies,
but that is not because the league of nations is
making show of handling the matter Some
friends OF the league point out that At mem
Der nations are now working on the problem of
disarmament, and therefore it would be un-
seen1ly for the Washington conference to go in
to the subject. The fact is that France cannot
talk disarmament now while the German and
Russian nenaces persist, and there is no dis
position among other nations to coerce her in
to reducing her land forces. The league of ma
tons can make no more progress in that direc-
ton at this time than can the ornaments con-
ference.
