ON NAVAL RATIO.

WASHINGTON. Nov. so AT a
conference with newspaper. men to-
night Admiral Baron Kato. senior
Japanese penipotentiary,,- declined to
The Associated Press by Vice Ad-
miral Kanji Kato, Japan's naval ex-
pert, coincided with the views of the
japanese delegation. The Kanji
Kato interview was an exposition of
Japan's reasons for insisting on
naval ratio of 20 per cent, instead of
the 60 per cent proposed in the Amer
lean plan.
The attitude of Japan's principal
delegates differ from that last night
voiced by Prince Tokugawa, who ex-
pressed the opinion that the Kani
Kato interview merely represented
the personal views Of Japan's naval
expert.
HAS the interview give by, Vice
Admiral Kato the approval of the
japanese delegation? the naval min
lister was asked.
II can not criticise what other
people have said,'' he replied.
DO you thing, like Prince Toku-
gawa. that Vice Admiral Kato mere
ly expressed his personal views?'
Il would like to be excused from
answering" he returned, because if
I say anything it would be interpret

own position. This is a matter of
great Importance and 1 think it will
take more time to settle it,
He said that while he was not

confessed he was worried a little
bit" He expressed hope that an

To CUT PAY
Of RAIL ME N
LABOR BOARD DECIDES REDUC-
TION OF 15 TO 20 PER
CENT.

Chicago, May 26.-The rates of
pay and classifications established
by the railroad labor boards wage
award of July, 1920, will be used as
the basis of reductions when the
board hands down its new wage de-
cision on June l, it was learned to-
day.
After a weeks deliberation, the
board has arrived at tentative per
centages which will cut the present
rates from 10 to Is per cent, accord
ing to the class of employees affected.
No estimate of the number of en-
ployes affected nor of the total slice
in the railroads payroll has yet been
made by the board, but figures dis
cussed in railroad circles place the
cut at between S350,00O,O00 and
S400, 100000. Employees of nearly
100 roads will be included in the
boards decision of June /, and it
was said that the percentage of re-
duction for each class of labor would
be uniform for all roads.

RAINS IMPROVE
CROP PROSPECTS
SMALL GRAIN MAKES RAPID
GROWTH CORN IN SOUTH
ERN COUNTIES BEING CUI-
TIVATED.

Chamberlain, May 26-Crop pros
poets throughout South Dakota could
not be more encouraging than at the
present time. Recent heavy rains
have placed the ground in the best
possible condition, assuring one of
the largest hay crops in the states
history, making pacturage of the
best, and pushing small grain and
other crops along very rapidly.
Small grain has appeared well
above the ground and presents a
strong and thrifty appearance. Fields
are unusually well advanced for this
period of the growing season.
Corn planting is nearing compile
tion in the northern portion of the
state. and for some time has been
completed in the southern section. In
the southern counties corn has at
tanned sufficient growth so that 1t
already is being cultivated.
The corn acreage is said TO be
fully as large as that of last year in
South Dakota, and the small grain
acreage also is stated 10 be about
the same as that of lasa year. The
farmers of the state are quite hope
full that in due time there will be
substantial increase in the prices oi
grain and other farm products, and
therefore wish to raise as large crops
as possible.
Notwithstanding the present low
prices of farm products, much new
land has been broken this spring In
the newer sections of South Dakota
and sown to flax.
Farm labor is reported ample IN
all parts of the state. the demand
not having been as great as durlne
the prosperous war years, as farm'
ers of South Dakota generally nave
this year performed much more oi
their own farm work than formerly

Touch Of Rouge
For Milady's Knees

New York, May 26.-While New
York school superintendents were
holding a meeting in the Commo-
dore hotel today and protesting short
skirts of teachers, the big old town
got a jolt from Dame Fashion.
Sidney Brooks, former hair dresser
in the cars palace, now manager
of a Fifth Avenue beauty parlor, re-
ports rouged kneers are to be intro
duced.
Some time ago women began roll
ing stocks below their knees" he eX-
planned Skirts got milady
crosses her knees, and now one has
to pay attention 10 the kners and
face. Rouged knees are the result.
The idea is TO get a faint pink eff
fect-a coat of rice powder, a touch
of rouge and then a film of powder
The effect really is quite charming. y
The school superintendent by the
way, bemoaned the fact that the
present staff personnel of schools are
not what they were a few years ago
and blamed il on the restiessness
of war aftermath.

LAKE HERMAN PARK
WELL PATROMZED
BEAUTIFUL SUMMER RESORT
OPENS SEASON AUS
PICTOUSLY

Lake Herman, that pretty sheet of
water two miles west of Madison, is
becoming more and more attractive
to people from this and adjoining
counties for the outdoor recereations
it offers TO fishermen and picnic
parties.
The park with its numerous boats,
its pavilion and cafeteria provide un-
eXcelled service to all who care TO
spend a day or a week in the fine
shady grove that furnishes shelter
for many nesting song bird.
A round of events have occurred
at the park very recently.
Yesterday was red letter day at
the park resort The Orland school
came there for a picnic and not one
of the party left disappointed. The
teachers and pupils of the Ramona
school were also out in full force for
a good time, and they had il accord
ing to all reports.
Several fishermen came down from
Oldham yesterday to try their luck
inone of the best stocked lakes in
the state.

SCHOOL CHILDREN
| N EASEMENTS
FIRE PROTECTION FOR LITTLE
ONES Is NOT As GOOD As 1T
Is IN THE FACTORIES.

Chicago, May 26.-The disquiet-
ing fact that children from to II
have poorer fire protection, less
light and air, and poorer teaching
than children from Il TO IS, is re-
vealed by a study now being carried
on by the better schools service of
the American Federation of Teach
ers.
Every comprehensive school sur
vey published within the past six
months confirms the efact that il is
the children of elementary school
age who are the most poorly housed
and taught" said Miss Josephine
Colby, of Chicago, in a talk before
the American Federation of Teach
ers here THE average elementary
school building and the average ele-
mentary school teacher are inferior
in equipment to the average high
school building and high school
teacher.
And of the children in the ele-
mentary schools by far the greater
number are under 13 years of age.
Overcrowding and the consequent
menace to sanitation and comfort oc-
ours just where it does the most
harm-amongst the younger chill
dren. Tens of thousands of children
are in basement rooms which are
inadequately lighted and more than
three feet below the ground level.
Thirteen thousand in Illinois alone
are reported among public school
children who go to school in base
ments.
The fire risk is one of the seri-
Gus dangers to which the younger
children are subjected. In the past
ten years the average rate of fires
per day in school buildings has in
creased 400 per cent. The child in
the school is less protected than the
worker in the factory"
Few cities can boast of the pre-
ponderance of fireproof structures,
type A school buildings. Frame
buildings of two or more stories
doors that swing in instead of out,
wooden floors and stairways, move
able chairs and benches in assem-
bly, rooms, dark Railways, these are
some of the hazards TO which little
children are subjected.

State Auditor To
Have More Work

Pierre. May 6.-The state audi
tors department is getting ready for
the demands which will be made aft
er July /. In addition to the rou-
tine work. which is not lessened
the department will have to make
out and mail the individual war
rants for payment of those entitled
to share in the soldiers bonus
fund.
Further, the legislature changed
the method of payment of hail loss
es, requiring an individual warrant
for each claimant.
In the past the warrants have
been drawn to the order Of the coun-
ty officers required to handle the
fund. and these officials made the
payments, but that is changed to
state payments.
Added to this is the collection OF
the gasoline tax, which was made a
part of the duty of the state auditor,
who not only is called upon to col
lect this tax, but to also provide
the necessary rebates where the gas
is used other than on the high
way.
To carry out this additional work
several new devices have been in
stalled to speed up the work and al
low it TO be done without increasing
the office force.

SLUMP IN SOUTH
AMERICAN PRICES
FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD Al
80 REPORTS A DECREASED
DEMAND FOR RAW MATER
IALS.

Washington, D. c., May 26.-
South America has suffered severely
the last year from the decline in pri-
ces and decreased demand for raw
materials, the federal reserve board
declared today in a review OF eco
nomics conditions there.
Each leading South American
country, the board explained, is
largely dependent on the export OF
a few commodities to the production
of which the country is well adapt
ed. Therefore, it added, it is highly
important for these countries to have
a favorable balance of merchandise
trade.
Price reductions in the United
States for the commodities constitut
ing the bulk of the exports of Ar
gentina. Brazil and Chile, which haC
a depressing effect on conditions il
those countries, were reviewed b.
the board. The reaction in Argen
tina, the board said, was felt partic
ularly in wheat, which fell from
s2.97 per bushel in May, 1920, il
the United States, to s1.67 in March
1921. Wool fell from a maximum o.
S1.26 per pound in October, 1919
it added, to 80 cents in March, 1921
For Brazil similar trend of pri
ces was seen, coffee reaching it
maximum in the United States of 2:
cents in July, 1919, and its minimum
of cents in March, 1921. while rub
Der fell from 80 cents in January
1919, to 16 cents in February, 1921
In the case of Chile, nitrate helC
a maximum of s4.45 during the firs
three months of 1919 and a mini
mum of $3.50 in March, 1921.
