JAPANESE BLOCK
PUBLICITY PLAN
FOR CHINA PACT
[Republlean a. ?. leased wIrel


WASHING GTON, Jan. 2O-The
American proposal to lay openly be-
fore the world all the treaties and
understandings that relate to China
met with an unexpected setback
today. when it came before the Far
Eastern committee for formal adop-
ton.
Although such step had been
agreed to yesterday Gin principle" the
problem of defining the exact scope
of the agreement precipitated a long
debate and after several changes had
been made in the draft presented by
ton was postponed at the suggestion
the American delegation, final ac-
| of Japan.
The committee did adopt, however.
a resolution expressing the hope of
! the powers that China speedily would
| reduce the large military forces now
maintained within her borders. That
| action the resolution declared was
| considered requisite to any real fl
| nancial rehabilitation Of the Chinese
! government.
Meantime. IN another subdivision
| OF the conference the ground work
was laid for another international
gathering which some delegateA
| seemed to regard as partial real

to discuss world affairs. The sub
| committee on draft, headed by Elihu
Root, approved a resolution putting
over a revision of the rules OF war

| United States in the near future.
For the first time in several weeks

members Of the American delegation
| told their colleagues the Shantung

On the naval side the situation
continued unchanged, with Japan

ASKS
HOUSE To GRANT
FREEDOM APPEAL
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-The re-
port of the Wood Forbes mission,
winch advised against granting the
Pnllpplnes their independence, was
criticised in the house today by Is
suro Gabaldon, one Of the resident
commissioners from the islands, who
declared his people could neither
agree to nor accept" the recommen-
datlons of the investigators.
Contending that the report had
only served to increase the insistence
OF t1llpinos for independence, MIR.
Gabaldon said, I'VE can find no other
conclusion than that the object of the
investigators was to find excuses for
delaying independence In deciding
the fitness OF the islands for inde-
pendeHce. He declared that the mis-
sion had set arbitrary qualifications
that no nation can now or ever will
be able TO meet.
There is clever but unworthy at
tempt to change the issue from that
or stable government to a multitude
Of other conditions not required by
congress" he asserted.
AS two additional developments in
the Pacific situation which made
granting of independence at his time
"opportune," Mr.. Gabaldon mentioned
the four power Pacific treaty and the
fact that the Nacionalista party,
which he declared was in the over
whelming majority in the Philippines,
had recently adopted a platform in
favor of independence without pro-
lection.
Il pray you not to do us the injus-
tice of misunderstanding our motive
in petitioning you for complete inde-
pende1ce, he declared 81 do not
challenge the benevolence of your in
tentions, but we are merely yearning
for the freedom which is inherent to
every self-respecting people,"
Declaring that the people Of the
Philippines were not knocking at the
door of congress with any bitterness
in their hearts" he said they realized
the great service rendered by the
United States in assisting us to pre-
pare ourselves for independence"
I'VE almost unanimously prefer our
independence. however," he added,
ito being under so an altruistic ma
ton as yours"

WALLACE SAYS
CERTAIN LOAN
FIRMS CHARGE
RU|NOUS RATES
Secretary of Agriculture To
Present Charges of Ex-
tortion Before National
Farm Conference
[RepubIIean a. P. leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, Jan. 90 Farm
financing came to the front today
with the announcement by Secretary
Wallace that he would lay before the
national agriculture conference next
week charges that certain companies
loaning money on farm mortgages
were taking advantage of the present
crisis to charge "extortionate' inter-
est rates.
The agricultural department. also
made public information ii had gath
cred showing that the banks of the
United States had outstanding ap-
proximately s3,S69. 1914 personal
and collateral loans to farmers and
$1,447,4S2 926 in farm mortgage loans
at the end of 1920. .
"In all lines of business" the sec
retary declared, I'VE find predatory
individuals who seek opportunities to
take advantage Of the misfortune OF
others. We expect that from men
OF a certain type but IT is a real
shock to note that the same sort of
thing is now being done by some in
surance companies and farm mort
gage loan companies of whom we
have right to expect higher code
of ethics"
These charges he added. do not
apply TO all companies making loans
to farmers. for some, he said were
doing the right thing and helping the
farmers all they could. Others.
however, he asserted, "are taking ad-
vantage OF the farmers distress to
heartlessly extort a rate of interest
and terms Of loan which can not be
justified. !"
Charles S. Barrett, president OF the
National Board of Farm Orsaniza-
tions and president of the National
Farmers Union, also issued a state
ment in which he declared that the
government had "ditched" the far
mer, because through the federal re-
serve board and other agencies it al
lowed a ruinous artificial deflation to
bring agriculture to Its present de-
plorable straits"
Real success for the conference. he
asserted, would be possible only if
plan is evolved through which
speedy aid would be given the far
mers so that they can continue as
producers of food and clothing ma
terials for this country and for
large part Of the world"
Secretary Wallace. also made pub
lie the names of &c women who he
announced would probably partici-
pate in the conference as delegates.
Acceptances have already been re-
ceived from the majority
Among the names were Mrs. w.
g. Jameson of La Veta, Colorado;

Early Dissolution
OF Sugar Control
Hit The Consumes
Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Early
dissolution of sugar control by the
previous administration cost the
American consumer hundreds of
millions of dollars, the department
of commerce said tonight in a re-
view.
"The world sugar market" It said.
''has followed a very uncertain
course during the last two years.
During 1918 and 1919 sugar prices
and distribution of the world We're
under joint control and western
hemisphere sugars We're admin
istered through the sugar equaliza-
tion board.
"The previous administration de-
cided not to continue this board
beyond distribution of the 1919 crop
and Immediately large speculative
operations began with most disas-
trous results, whereas during the
great stress of the war sugar was
maintained at prices that dealt fair
ly with both producer and consumer.
The control was obviously dissolved
too early in view Of the enormous
disturbance to both production and
consumption. The loss TO the Amer
lean consumer was inevitably fol-
lowed by a crash which has done
infinite injury to the sugar pro-
ducerS."

Ready for End

Ready for End
ROME, Jan. 20-'1f it pleases the
Lord that shall work again for His
church. am ready: if he says it is
enough, let His will be DONE"
These were the final words Of Pope
Benedict when the Cardinals with
drew from his chamber this eve-
ming. The Associated Press was told
that he retained consciousness.
Prof. Ettore Marchiafava. one of
the physicians in attendance on the
pope this evening. still was somewhat
hopeful as TO the outcome. There
is a thread of hope" he said He
added that the pontiff was resisting
his ailment with great fortftude. The
patient obtained little rest in the
early evening, but he was no better,
nor yet any worse, the doctor said.
All the cardinals Of the Curia Ba :
curia remained at the Vatican
throughout the afternoon, and this
evening many Of them were present
In the ante chamber of the sickroom.
Still Hold Hope
All the cardinals concurred in the
opinion that there still was ray of
hope but that the condition of the
pope was most desperate. Although
his breathing continued difficult, the
fact that he had been able to throw
off some of the lung congestion
frightened the spirit of the pontifical
court.
The apartment occupied by the
pontiff is the same as that used by
Pope Plus X, The windows open ON
the spacious st! Peters square over
looking the whole of Rome. The bed
room Of the pope is the last but one
from the corner. The corner room,
now a small chapel was the death
chamber Of Plus X.
Among the cardinals OF the Curia
who remained at the Vatican
throughout the afternoon and during
the evening was Vincent Vannutelll,
dean of the sacred college. He said
that a time like this the death Of
the holy father would be n great
calamity. When the great specialist,
DR.. Marchifava, proclaimed that
there was still q thread Of hope for
the recovery of the pope. an humble
friar Of the "Dogood Brethren" who
has been attending the pope through
out his illness was even more san
guine, saying:
During my life time work among
the sick and poor L have seen so
many recover who looked worse than
does the pontiff. To me he does not
show the appearance of being a des-
perate case"
When DR.. Marchifava left the bed
chamber this evening. he wished tN-
pope good night. Pope Benedict
smiled and replied: 81 accept this as
a happy augury.' The pontiff's voice
was hoarse and 1t was with difficult
ty that he spoke.
Between Life and Death
Pope Benedict early this (Satur-
day) morning lay between life and
death. Whether the pontiff could
survive the night was considered
problematical by Prof. Raffaele Bat
tistini, a attending physician.
Fresh centers of pneumonia infec-
tion have developed in the lungs of
the patient and the catarrh from
which he suffers still persists. His
temperature shortly after midnight
was 10i. Breathing was hard and
difficult.
The pneumonia was localized dur
