FIGHT In The LEAGUE
RAISED BY ART. X.
Canada's Appeal for It's Elm
ination Finally Sent to
subcommittee.
AGAINST REDUCED NAVIES
Nations to Be Asked to Cut
Land Armaments to Fig
ures of 1918.

GENEVA, Sept IA (Associated Press).
The decision of the steering committee
of the Assembly of the League of Ma
tions to put off for another year the
Canadian amendment to the covenant
eliminating Article X. met with stout
opposition to-day. The Canadian Min
lister OF Marine. Ernest La Pointe, made
most energetic and impressive appeal
for its immediate consideration and the
committee decided to appoint a subcom-
mittee to make new report on the
question.
M Barthelemy of France defended
Article X, which provides that the
members of the league undertake to
respect and preserve against external
aggression the territorial integrity and
existing political independence of all the
members and said France was strongly
IN favor of Its being retained because It
established new and valuap.e princr;e
in favor of the weaker and smaller
States of the world.
If by the suppression OF Article X.
we could attract the United States into
the league" he said, ''the sacrifice would
appear to be light. But as it seems that
our esteemed sister republic is not ready
to join us. even with Article X. elm
mated. we are bound to insist upon It's
Unexpected opposition to the extension
of the Washington naval accords to
members of ths league not present at
the Washington Conference developed
before the Committee on Disarmament.
Brazifs delegate said he had orders
from the Government not to accept even
the principle of the Washington accords,
because two capital ships were not
enough to protect Brazil's long coast
line.
The Polish delegation also rejected
the idea of the Washington Conference
because new countries like Poland,
which have no navy, would be unable
to build one, and Poland. exposed on
its frontier AL the way to the Baltic
Sea. felt the need of naval force to
protect It's northern frontier.
II. A. l.. Fisher of the British delega-
tion explained that the treaties of Wash
irgton were not eternal, they consti-
tuted only truce in naval construction
lasting until 1886.
The Assembly Disarmament Commit
tee has decided to recommend a resolu-
tion introduced by NJ. de Jouvenal Of
France, asking all countries except those
whose juridica situation has been
changed. to reduce their expenditure for
armaments to the figures OF 1913. This
would exclude the United States and
Canada, as well as Spain, which is at
war with Morocco.

lay the matter in detail before Premier
Lloyd George. while VI. Poincare has
assumed command of the French side
OF the negotiations.
Despite the serious turn of events. the
German delegation in Paris remains
optimistic. One German official said
They (the French) always decide on
stern measures. However. we have re-
fused the gold, and shall continue to re-
fuse IL. But l think that some compro-
mise will be effected. as the Allies do
not want to precipitate trouble at this
time"
Belgiums request for the deposit of
gold not later than tomorrow. instead
OF being merely diplomatic maneuver
to permit further discussion. as at first
indicated now appears to be stern de-
mand with the full packing OF the
French and Belgium Governments.
After the meeting to-day of the
French Cabinet ii was authoritatively
stated that official notification of Ger
many's refusal to deliver the gold will
be followed by the laying of the matter
before the Reparations Commission by
Belgium and a French demand for a
declaration of Germany's voluntary de-
fault.
An official communique was issued to-
night and says THE Cabinet council,
through the Premier. gave definite In
structions to NJ Dubois concerning the
French attitude in the event of Ger
many's failure to comply with the repa-
rations commissions decision OF August
81"
NJ. Dubois, who is president of the
commission, will exercise his right to
cast the deciding vote in the event that
Great Britain and italy oppose such
declaration. as Is probable. The mem
bers of the Cabinet gave explicit in
structions to NJ. Dubois to demand action
by the commission unless the gold Is
deposited.
The refusal of Germany to pay the
II, 100000 due tomorrow as part pay
ment of German private pre-war debts
to allied nationals has served to stiff
fen the attitude of the Cabinet. The re-
cent London conference reduced the pay
nents due in August and September
nom f4.000.O00 to f2,000.000. Germany
has paid 100000 and was required to
pay the balance tomorrow.
French policy is being directed toward
commission Of Germany's voluntary de-
fault. 1t is reliably stated that France
will then request an immediate confer
ence of the allied Powers TO consider the
reparations situation, and an effort will
be made to reach an agreement with
Great Britain on the French debt and
also a definite settlement of the repara-
tions question. No military measures
would be taken unless the conference
broke down

MORTGAGES INCREASE
WITH VALUE OF FARM
Gain During Last Decade Ap-
pears Almost Startling.
Growth Has Been Most Marked in
Sections Which Have Made Great
est Progress-No Cause for
Alarm, Says Bulletin.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
While the Increase In farm mort
gage indebtedness during the last dec
ade appears almost startling, the
alarm, declares the United States
Department of Agriculture in De-
partment Bulletin 1047, Farm Mort
gage Loans by Banks, Insurance
Companies. and Other Agencies, a
new publication prepared by v. N.
Valgren and Elmer Il. Engelbert and
now ready for distribution. The in
crease, say the writer's, is rather a
logical result of increased market
value of farms. The rise in these
values, in tIrn, reflects better farm
incomes during the decade than pre-
vailed during the preceding years,
these incomes being to considerable
extent invested in added permanent
improvements I'm the form of build
ings, fences, silos, and drainage and
irrigation systems. According to pre-
liminary reports for the census of
1920, mortgage Indebtedness on farms
operated by full owners amounted to
S4.012,711,213, as against S1,726,172,-
S51 in 1910. The information avail
able concerning the amount and
sources of farm mortgage loans in
the United States is fragmeniary, the
bulletin points out.
A very large percentage of farm
mortgages is the result of land trans
fers, the mortgage like tenancy, form
ing rurg i'm the agricultural ladder
70 farm ownership. The size of the
mortgage naturally tends to bear
direct relationship to the purchase
price Of the farm. To the extent
that farm mortgages are the result
Of investments in productive perma-
nent improvements and equipment by
existing farm owners, they evidence
progress and not repression. In gen
rral. the increase i'm farm mortgages
turing each decade since data were
first gathered by the census has been
most marked i'm sections which have
made the greatest progress during
that period. Even where improve
ments are paid for out of savings in
stead of with the proceeds of loans,
the increased value and price Of
farm is quite certain TO result in a
larger mortgage in case the farm is
transferred to new owner.

Detroit, September 1 to 10, which,
for the past 10 years has been direct.
ed by George w. Dickinson, promises
more than ever before for the farmer
or office man, factory worker or ex.
ecutive, housewife or society matrOn
boy or girl.
II is now nearly three quarters of
century-73 years-since the early
Michigan settlers held in Detroit the
first state fair west Of the Allegheny
mountains.
AS times change. institutions must
advance in step with them. Thus ii
is that the Michigan State Fair. now
representing an urban as well as a
rural population. has added many
features which appeal mainly to those
who live in the cities. These. this
year. include great industrial exhibits,
and many. many lessons in the build
ing Of homes and the making of those
homes more livable.
Hand in hand with these features
has gone an increasing interest in
agriculture. Michigan is rich in vari-
ETY. of its farming products as well
as in their quality. So it is, that the
Fair has made it a first principle that
its departments shall cover a wide
range Of crops and livestock.
Into this magnificent mirror OF
rural and industrial life OF the state,
you are cordially invited to look for
10 days and 10 nights this year.

The Magic OF Chemistry Which Makes Compound

WAR AND PEACE

The art of warfare is as Old as the
race itself. Warfare at first consisted
OF throwing stones at the enemy or
hitting him with a club.
The art slowly progressed. The
catapult was used for hurting good
sized rocks and the bow and arrow
served its purpose in stand-off COM
bats. Thus ii went for many CEN
turies. Warfare consisted OF ninety
per cent hand to hand work and per-
haps ten per cent OF shooting from a
distance.
Along about l345 an old monk found
that gunpowder when properly ignited,
gave vent to a pretty good sized noise.
England and France were atswar and
the new invention was tried out at
the battle of Crccy with the result that
the horses became frightened at the
noise like thunder Losses were heavy
and gunpowder was voted a success.
Warfare didn't advance greatly for
centuries. To be sure many improve
ments in guns and explosives were
made but the basic principle remained
the only way to put an enemy out
OF commission was to bit ~ with
projectilc.
On the morning OF April p, 1915,
warfare was revolutionizcd when a
cloud Of Chlorine gas was sent over

'egimcnts. This experiment proved
