SARRAUT
RESENTS
ATTACKS
Suspicion Cast Upon
French In Arms Con
ference Is Unfounded
Spokesman Says

Washington, Dec. 30.-Albert
Sarraut, head of the French arms
conference delegation, at the meet
ing today Of the conference naval
committee, declaring In substance
that France was beginning to be
regarded with suspicion by the
other powers represented In the
Washington meeting and that
this could not go on.
M. Sarraut went on to say in
substance, according to reports
received from members OF other
delegations, that the position OF
France had become very uncom-
Portable.
French Officer Quoted
The remarks of the French dell
egation head were made during a
discussion Of the Root resolutions
to regulate submarine warfare.
An article read from French
periodical by Lord Lee of the
British delegation, according to
reports aroused the members OF
the French delegation and drew
forth responses from both NJ.
Sarraut and Admiral De Bon, Of
the French group.
The article In question purport-
ed to state the views OF an Off
Ger Of the French naval general
staff approving the use made by
Germany Of submarines against
merchant ships during the recent
war. The article, as read by Lord
Lee, said that the only weapon
possessed by France to defend
her coasts and to attack and de.
stroy the British navy in event oi
war with Great Britain was tbs
submarine.
Assertion Challenged
Admiral De Bon immdeiatel,
challenged any assumption tha

OF the French naval general stat
as to the proper use of submarine
He said the article represente,
only the opinion OF an individua
officer and declared vehement,
that II was not to be taken al
typical Of even Frances nava
opinion on the subject.

Farm Bureau Meetings

Charles G. Stonebreaker of the ma
tlonal farm bureau federation, IN
company with County Agent Skuse
of Nez Perce county, held meetings
at Leland and Southwlck Tuesday.
The meeting a Leland was held in
the afternoon at 1:30 and at South
wick IN the evening at 7:30. The
purpose OF the meetings was to take
up the matter Of the county farm
bureau uniting with the state and
national federation. The idea of
uniting with the state and national
federation seems to be meeting with
general favor.
Reports at the federation meet
ing showed that there are 967, ,272
paidup members belonging to the
l ,468 county farm bureaus and 46
state farm bureau tederatlons, all
members of the American tarm
bureau federation. 1t was also re-
ported that there are more than
SOC, 900 additional members of the
county and state tarm bureaus who
have not yet qualified for member
ship in the national organization.
During the year 22,S78 members
were added.
1t can thus be seen that there are
about l,5O0, 900 farm bureau men,
bers in the United States and the
membership is now growing at the
rate of $4,000 a month, giving
promise of reaching 100000 IN
number by the close of the coming
year. 1t is estimated that the
efforts of the farm bureau fedora
ton have been instrumental in re-
ducing railroad rates to the extent
of $50, 100000. Five national con-
/, ferences have been held for the
purpose of promoting cooperation
to shorten the farmers road to
market. Through the work of the
COMMITTEE OF II" the United
States Grain Growers has been or
ganlzed, with $4,000 farmers and
600 elevators, WITH 5D,000,000 bush
els of grain under contract, THIS
being only a beginning. 1t being
expected by year from now to
have, 100000 members, represent.
ing 300, 900, 900 bushels of grain, OF
pernap one-haIf the entire wheat
crop of the United States.
