tRoGRAM ron FTExECIAL
 RELIEF TO THE FARMERS


 Washington, Nov. 30 CBY the A. P0 -The now administration progr@n for immediate financial relief to farmers was formulated and practically per ,ected today at a conference attended by President Harding. Secretary Wall ace and twelve republican senators headed by Senator Watson, of Indiana. tt will be put before congress at once and pressed with the full force of the administration.
 Broadly, the plan brings together in one admnnistrdtion measure the ap- proved portion of various relief meas ires already pending in congress and contains also provisions to. make the inI ended relief available to the small far mer 'asr weA as to the large cattle rais- srs and grain growers.
 Today, President Harding kept h.s Thanksgiving dinner waiting while hs heard the perfected program outlined and gave his general ap2roavl.
 The plan proposes to utilize the fed. sral farm loan board as the agency shrough which relief Is to be given. The letaiis of the financing have been prac ically worked out. The general pur pose is larger and more liberal credit! and cheaper interest rates. The opinioT of chose participating in the conference vas that while the war finance corpor Stion had been of great value in ale g.ating the distressed condition of az ,,culture, It's loans. because of certain inltatioHs, did not reach down to tn average small farmer. By using tt federal far mloan board as the agenc. 70 carry out the plan Of financing tn new administration plan proposes | make the government relief avzilsibl directly to the small farmers who nee t.
 All tho Senators present gave thei approval to the program and piedge heir support for it's immediate cons'd sratlon in congress.

 Houston, Tex, Nov. 3o.-DecIarIng that America should cancel at least part of her war debt from the allies in order to make sure that the World war was a war to end wars, President John Gr,er Hibben, of Princeton university in an address at Rice institute here today, asserted that now is the time for the United States to gauge whether the war sacrifices of the country have been in Vain''
 "A great toll" he said, ''was paid by the allies in the year when we were in preparation to enter the war,
 If we exact further payment in mon- ey we will be demanding that the allies 1t may be said by some that while this is generous solution on our part of some of the difficulties of Europe, it .s not right that the nation should forezo contractual dekt, that the government is the trustee of the funds Of it's people and must safeguard the financial inter eStS of it's citizens. But if the people themselves demand 1t, they have the right to sacrifice their own interests Tn view of a higher end possible of reall- zation. +.
 We have already, manifested this Spirit on small scale in our history. The indemnity given to us by China oI account of the Boxer rebellion was found to- be larger than the claims ot our American citizens. Consequently we returned $13,OOO,O0O to China
 "A similar action now on our part would not only give new courage and hope to Europe but would bring to oul American people again the same e,eya- tion of spirit which We experienced ir the year of 1917 and 1918 during thG World war. It Is a great day m tn, history of mankind when powerful nation shall rise up and prove to al the world that it has soul
 If we are wise enough and great enough to do this thing we should verN carefully safeguard our generability 1 through the demand that the nations O. Europe should balance their budgets 3, as to wipe out the present annual def | cits. They cannot do this however 1 without veny substantial reduction G 1 all their army and navy appropriations
 '1 do not know whether to regard ! 1 as tragedy or a comedy that WI ] should in the present world situation 1 be represented at the various confer l ences abroad by one whose function i ] that of a spectator. We are the onl, nation of the world that can act witt striking power, and yet we are sat;s l fed to look on.
 we may delay and delay, and delay l taking steps assuring us that the Worlt i war was a war to end wars until it 1 too late to avert such war, and to late to guard ourseles from parvticpa !! tion in it, or from the disastrous effect upon us and upon the generations vs ! to scomessof another world ares.=sq-y,
