MAY ACCEPT, BUT
DEMAND RECOGNITION.

GENOA, May 4.-(By Associated
Press.) )-The Soviet representatives
here announced today that the terms
of the Allied note to Russia had been
telegraphed to Moscow, says the Ex-
change Telegraph, which adds, cts
stated that possibly Premier Lenin
will accept, demanding recognition
simultaneously"
That the Soviet plenipotentiarie
are mot delighted" with the pro.
ject of the powers for the reconstruc-
tion of Russia is the brief summary
emanating from Soviet sources Of the
Bolshevill views on the memorandum
on which Europe's statement have
worked so laborlously.
The fact that the document does
not mention recognition of the Soviet
government and ignores the sugges-
tion of governmental loans is said to
displcase the communist leaders.
Belgium has not signed the mem
orandum.
All the leaders expressed satisfac-
tion at Wednesdays plenary session,
believing that it embodied the in
auguration of far reaching efforts
to improve the finances Of Europe.
The financial code at the conference
ha sheen written, declared Sir Lam
ing Worthington Evans, chairman Of
the financial commission, and he be-
lieved it would prove as important
'as~the basis Of world Jurisprudence.
The essential points are elimina-
ton of the issue of paper money, fix
ing parity with gold, economizing in
the use of gold and coordination of
gold. The United States, said the
chairman with almost half the
worlds gold could join in the future
study of the problems without invoEy-
ing itself in political difficulties and
could help Europe as well as herself.
At the session, M. Tchiteherin of
Russia alluded to the rights Of COM
munlsm and declared that it was inn
possible for the Russian government
to renounce its control ov1r exchange
operations, despite the fact that the
financial report characterized this
control as mischievous.
The financial report, like the mcm-
orandum of the powers to the Rus
SLAMS, emphasizes that assistance to
dlsorganized countries should take
the form of private, not government
tai credits.
M. Tchiteherin insisted on govern
ment loans, and in this endorsed the
views '. OF M. Rakovsky, who had pub
llely declared that the Soviet as the
russian government expected
loan from the powers.

Though sentenced to the Guillo-

$3.50 ACRE HERE
THEIR 3RD YEAR
Four Acre Plat On w. ]. Josey
Farm Brings Big Returns AT
Little Cost

The lowly deberry, which is the
earliest fruit Of the spring to ripen,
is coming into its own in Sumter
county. At least that would be the
conclusion to be reached from a
study of the results obtained on a
four-acre experimental plat near
Americus, which, in it's third year,
is producing at the rate Of $3.50 an
acre this year.
The four acres are owned by w.
j. Josey, and are located on his farm
just beyond the western city limits.
These dewberries, which were plant
ed three years ago, are now yielding
so crates to the acre and Mr.. Josey
is finding a ready market for them
in Atlanta at 81 per crate, he states.
The wild dewberry, with which the
country abounds, is not yet coming
into the market to compete with the
cultivated berries. In order that all
may be convinced of the truth of his
assertions, Mr.. Josey invite anyone
interested to visit his place and see
what he is doing
That the dewberry industry is a
great profit producer may be seen
from the statements of Mr.. Josey as
to cost of producing the crop. The
plants, which are set six feet apart
each way, 1925 to the acre, cost
$40 per acre, and wires for them
to cling to cost another SO per acre.
The labor, fertilizer and other ex-
penses, he says, do not exceed SIS per
acre, only rough breaking being re-
quired, or a total first cost of $35
per acre. The life of the plant is
Is to 20 years.
Last year E. j. McMath planted
two rows of deberries under the ad-
vice Of Mr.. Josey, and this year is
getting a splendid first year yield.
Wr. Josey has planted the La Gre
TIA variety, which is standard. He for
meny owned peach farm, but find
ing this unsatisfactory and aecompa-
med by considerable risk, he got rid
OF the peaches and set about to find
some other cheaply made and profit
able product. After consulting gov
ernment bulletins, including one of
the dewberry, and experimenting he
tried four acres of this fruit, and is
delighted with the results.

Meanwhile all Belgian organizations

1t is futile to try to see Jeannes.
The prison authorities have reached
the point where they do not even ad-
nit his existence! Thus they save
both king and executioner from bear
ing brunt of public sentiment.
This man of 33 originally sold his
country for 25 francs month. The
Germans later increased his pay un-
til he was getting 750 francs
month.
Jeannes disappeared when the Ger
man war machine collapsed, but fate
played him trick. Whe nthe flee
ing Germans destroyed their docu
ments, one heap in barn near the
Belgian frontier in Northern France
was overlooked
In this mass of papers were found
200 reports made by Jeannes, togeth-
er with his German police card, and
letters from him to his German chief,
Kirschenheim, in which he boasted of
his exploits and asked for more mon
ey for his faithful service"
Jeannes claimed he had caused the
death of 126 Belgians, Frenchmen
and British, including Miss Cavell.
His trial was sensation. At first
he was contemptuous and defiant,
but the evidence against him was so
strong that his bravado soon vanish

was brought that he personally re-
ported Miss Cavell to. the German
