AMENDMENTS TO FINANCE OUR
 AGRICULTURE

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-Study of az ricultural finance, with the view oi recommending amendments to ex isting laws to include system o1 short time credits for the American farmer, has been taken up at the an nual convention of the Southern Commercial Congress that convened here Monday.
 Financing of the exportation ol the surplus farm crops of America as well as discussions of the exten sion of credits, will be brought be fore the meetings, according to Dr Clarence J. Owens, president of the congress. This will be in further ance of the work of the congress 1T pushing the enactment of the fed eral farm loan system, which pr Owens characteriZes as the greatest achievement of the congress since its organization in 1887.
 By resolution passed at the con vention at Nashville in 1912, the congress assembled commission directed to investigate agriculture organization and cooperation in 1s countries of Europe. Various state laws resulted, including the market ing law of California, and the Shorl Time Credits law of New York, and the Federal Farm Loan Act, under which there were established + great banks, and more than foul thousand farm loan associations with loans to date aggregating more than $sOO,O0o,oOo.
 "It was this law, without any fur ther Federal legislation, that car ried America through the World War, furnished the margin of fl nance for American agriculture whereby we produced the food fol our Army and Navy, for our coun try, and, to large extent, for oul Allies" said Dr. Owens.
 "The benefits that have accrued to America are being carried to other countries of the western hemi sphere and the movement now is activly on that will, in large meas ure,, regenerate the agricultural life of the Americans and will react in value to the industrial and commer- cial life of these nations"

1STERILIzE EPILEPTICS,' IS
 SUGGESTION OF JURIST

LONDON, Nov. 21.-Whether api- leptics and other moral and physical degenerates should be sterilized or otherwise dealth with in order that they may not reproduce their own species has become ar important discussion here, owing to observa- tions made in Court by one of the chiefs of the English bench, Justice Roche.
 A man was brought before him for stabbing woman in Hyde Park. The prison doctor stated that the prisoner, Charles Edmund Seyour, was an epileptic but that:
 He would know what he was do- ing and would know that it was wrong"
 Delivering sentence, Justice Roche made this pronouncement:
 ''In my judgment the medical pro-

fession of England would be perform ing public service if they studied earnestly the question of the feasi- bility of sterilizing both men and women with tendencies such as this man has.
 'To allow them to produce is breeding from the worst of all stock and propagating disease and crime.
 T am expressing no opinion whether it is feasible or whether Parliament would pass such a meas ure. It would depend on the ea- animation by skilled persons as to the feasibility of ,t and the risk attending."
 In the present discussion medical opinion generally is with the judge. "The epileptic trouble is transmitted to the children is the general opln- ion, land it is thus impossible to eradicate the taint."

P. 0. IS OPENED ! 80 MILES FROM
 NORTH POLE

< OTTAWA, Ont, Nov 22.-As the re- suit of recent voyages of exploration in the North, Canada now claims the most northerly postoffice in the world,
 Craig Harbor on Ellsmere fsland,- only $50 miles from the Pole. An other new postoffice in the northland is at Ponds Inlet, on Baffin Island Both were established by the Cana dian explorer, Captain Bernier. dur ing the latest tour of his schooner. the Arctic.
 An inspector and six men of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, are at Craig Harbor, where they have es- tablished post, while four representa- tives of the famous police corps rep resent law and order at Ponds Inlet. Sergeant Joy of the 'Mounties" has been in the district year investigat- ing an Eskimo murder.
 The Bernier expedition was sent for the purpose of taking the first steps in an extensive program calculated to maintain efficiently Canadas sov- ereignty in the vast northern region, known to be rich in mineral deposits. The vessel carried materials for the construction of houses and provisions for the maintenance of posts.
 According to statement issued by the Canadian Department of the In terior, it is the intention of the gov ernment to establish additional posts year by year, and to continue scien tific and exploratory work. A patrol ship will visit the new northern posts annually, taking in supplies and mail to the men left there. A representa- tive of the Air Board accompanied the expedition and will report on the pos abilities of aviation in the north with particular reference to patrols and exploratory and survey work.

GRAFTON, w. Va, Nov. 22. - The seizure of several zinc moonshine stills in Taylor County has prompted Charles R. Lilly, magistrate and for mer Federal prohibition field officer for West Virginia, to issue a warning against moonshine liquor that is ped died about in this section.

CANTON, Nov. 20. Floating churches where religious services are held, floating schools and dispensaries, are features of the missionary work carried on by the South China Boat Mission among the thousands of Chi nese who live on house boats in South China.
 Canton has perhaps the largest boat population of any city in the world, as there are -S4,000 boats of every de- scription registered in the office of the Harbor Commissioner. This rep resents approximately 100000 people.
 The South China Boat Mission be- gan it's work with the boat people in 1909. and the work has grown until at the present there are eight gospel boats supported by the mission in the Kwangtung Province Five of these boats operate at Canton, one at Kong moon, one at Shiuchow and one at Yingtak. In Canton church services are held every Sunday morning, as we'll as through the week, on the gos- pei boats, which weave their way through the labyrinth of boats of every description.
 A small boat is used as dispensary and is under the direction of a Chi nese physician, while another boat is converted into boarding school for boys and another into a school for girls. The boat schools must be board ing schools, as the boat people move about constantly, and the pupils could not attend regularly otherwise. There are eighteen boys attending the boys school and about the same number of girls enrolled in the boarding school for girls. There are also many day pupils.
 The boat people are very clannish. They have dialect of their own; they seldom go on land, do not mingle with the Hand people" are very supersti- tious and are uneducated. Practically the only way in which the missionary can reach them is to secure a boat and go out and live among them
 There are boats of all descriptions They include the sampans, which lie close to the water and are approxi- mately fifteen feet long; the great junks, with their cargoes of grain, salt and lumber; the fishing boats, with their high sterns and picturesque amber-colored patched sails; the boats with great eyes painted on their prows, in order that they may see, which ply between Canton and Ningpo, and the river cargo boats, with small cannons mounted on their sides as protection against the river pirates. As these boats carry silk they are attacked frequently
 The sampans, which are some fiji. teen feet long and five feet wide, are the homes of families of six or seven people. The women, often with babies strapped to their backs or playing at their feet, row the majority of the boats, for the women are the workers in South China.
 The headquarters of the South China Boat Mission is in Chicago, and the missionaries working among the boat

URGES INcOLNMEMORIAL
PLANFOR ARLINGTON BRIDGE
Fine Arts Commission Would Connect Two
Shrines by Beautiful Structure.

Construction of the Arlington
Memorial Bridge should start from
the Lincoln Memorial rather than
from New York avenue. the Fine
Arts Commission advised Col. c. o.
Sheriff.. executive officer Of the
proposed structure. yesterday in an
extensive statement.
After prolonged consideration OF
the proposal to start the bridge
from New York avenue. the COM
mission declared that the bridge
SHOULD be a memorial instead OF a
traffic thoroughfare."
Frederick Law Olmstead is
quoted as follows:
L will say that the very loca-
tion which is now proposed for the
Memorial Bridge (the New York
avenue plan) had been proposed
prior to 1901, was given careful
consideration by the commission,
and was rejected in favor of the
direct line from the Lincoln
Memorial to the Lee Mansion in
Arlington, in accordance with
the judgment of every member and
that of Charles F. McKim, Daniel
Burnham and Augustus St. Gau-
dens."
The extension of New York ave-
nue., Chairman Moore AYERS. would
involve the destruction of one or

two valuable buildings of the
Naval Hospital 'and would take off
so much of the hospital grounds
as to dismember that institution"
Mr.. Moore, In the course of the
report. draws attention to the fact
that the proposed bridge, 100 feet
high at New York avenue. might
dwarf the Lincoln Memorial.
In answer to the argument that
the bridge can be built without
draw on the New York avenue
plan, whereas the large amount OF
river traffic to the Georgetown
wharves would necessitate a draw
IL the bridge were built on the
Lincoln Observation-Disclosures line,
Mr.. Moore states that Chicago has
built a monumental bridge across
the Chicago river at Michigan ave-
nue. and both the street traffic and
river traffic there are now many
times as great as they are in WASH
ington.
The Siver traffic to Georgetown,
he declares, is carried on mainly
in towed barges. which could
readily pass beneath the arches of
the memorial bridge. He quotes
records to show that during the six
months ended September. 1921. a
draw would only have had to be
opened fourteen times.
