PICNIC FOR FARMERS
AND TRIP FOR GIRLS
PROVIDED IN PREbLE

EATON, O., July 5.--A trip to Col
umbus for the best girls food club
team in Preble county, a summer far
mers picnic in conjuction with the
Preble county Grange, and investiga,
tion of the possibilities of such a
wheat smut treating plant as Wayne
county is contemplating, were actions
determined upon by the executive
committee of the Preble county farm
bureau in its monthly meeting Satur-
day, July ,.
Charles Hildeboldt was named as a
compittee of one to consult with the
Grange authorities and agree upon a
date when a summer picnic may be
held by farmers of the county. Ar
rangements for the picnic will be
made by both organizations working
in conjunction. One feature of the
picnic, which will probably be held
some time very shortly before the
state fair date, will be the elimination
contest, when the girls food club
teams will engage in competitive dem
onstrations, the winning team to be
sent to the state fair at the expense
of the farm bureau.
Williams Speaks.
The executive committee was ad-
dressed by Charles Williams, presi-
dent of the Wayne county, Indiana,
Corn Growers association, on wheat
smut treating plants. Mr.. Williams
with other Wayne county representa-
tives, recently made an inspection trip
to Shelby and Rush counties, where
smut treating plants have been in op
Grafton for three years in Shelby coun
ty and for the past year in Rush
county. Mr.. Williams told of the sue
cess that these counties have had in
eliminating the smut, and described
the treating plants. The bureau de
cided to name a committee to investi
gate the facilities for installing smut

500 WAIT NRA|N

. CONSULT LORENz
Notice Said Surgeon Would
Not Be Able to See Any
More Patients To-Day.

Neither the unceasing rain nor the
repeated announcement that DR..
Lorenz would not be able to see any
more patients to-day served to drive
from the doors OF the Hospital for
Joint Diseases, Madison Avenue and
12Sd Street, a drenched but hopeful
crowd Of men, women and children,
some of whom had been waiting there

However, DR.. LorenZ was unable to
see all Of the Rfty. When he had
examined forty he became slightly
i'll, owing to a stomach disarrange-
ment from which he has suffered for
several days, and had to abandon his
clinic. He went to one of the hos

At noon DIR. LorenS left the hospital
to visit a private patient and then
hastened downtown to attend a
luncheon in his honor at Fraunce' s
Tavern, given by the trustees of the
Broad Street Hospital.
At least 500 persons gathered al
the hospital doors this morning, un-
willing to believe thOt they would
have to forego treatment or exami-

themselves. Even when signs read

NOT A NEW LEAGUE." "
Borah'S Criticism Said to Be
Based on Inadequate
Information.
By David Laurence.
Especial Correspondent of The Eve
ming World.)


WASHINGTON Nov 2S Copy
right. 192D.-President Harding has
worked out only in principle the
project for a continuous conference
of nations. The criticism OF Senator
Borah, therefore, that the talked of
association of nations" would only
he "the League of Nations under an
other name" is based upon made
quate information.
The Evening Worlds correspondent
has the highest authority for making
the foregoing observation. The truth
ls MIR. Harding did not plan deliher-
ately to interject a discussion OF a
word organization into the press at
this time. He was asked d, question
at the regular conference with wash
lngton correspondents last Friday
and the initiative was entirely With
the latter. The impromptu answer
was, indeed. the expression by the
President OF his earnest hope OF what
might develop out of the gathering
which now Is taking place. For
long time he has sensed the rising
tide of international cooperation of
some kind, though, at the same time,
he has felt that the people OF the
United States would not sanction any
thing that savored of "supergov-
ernment."
Anybody who supposes that Mr..
Harding has in mind an orga nization
Ike the present League of Nations
will find that notion dissipated when
the President makes known the de-
tails of his plan. Nor does the Presi-
dent feel that he would be creating a
rival to the League OF Nations. Since
the United States Government hAa
definitely turned down the idea OF
membership in the League of Nations
in its present form, it would be illogl-
cal, say Mr.. Harding's friends. to find
the President proposing another or
ganization with similar rules and reg
ul6tions and with merely another
name.
This much the new plan would have
in common with the League OF Ma
tions-an identity of object, namely
the prevention OF war by having fire.

that object has been sought through
one form or another for EADGNt:ons
and the feeling in Administration
quarters is that there cannot be too
many efforts in that direction.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2s.-President
Harding will submit sS,oOo,oOO, 900

will cover Federal financial needs for
the fiscal year ending June so, 1873.
This estimate is ST. O6S. 900, 900 below
the estimate submitted for the fiscal
year ending on June 30, 1922, and
represents an actual saving of $780,
100000, as Congress pared that much
from the estimate.
The budget may be trimmed con-
siderably If the Arms Conference
agrees on a programme of reduced
naval ornaments.
The new budget will represent Gov
ernment needs cut to the bone by Gen.
Dawes and his economy experts in the
Budget Bureau. With them a separ-
ate budget of expenditures which are
considered advisable will be sub
mitted.
Estimates for this year, as submit
ted by the various bureaus to the Di-
rector of the Budget, were nearly as
large as last years amount, but
Dawes welded ruthless pruning
knife.
Expenditures that might be Classed
as for future wars have been trimmed
by many millions. It is pointed out,
however. that the enactment of a SOL

is the estimated cost for the next year.
Naval estimates are being made or
