SHIP BUILDING. IN GE ERMANY HALTED
Collapse Of Mark Death Blow To New lnduS-
 tries

HAMBURG. Nov. 10.--(By Associat- cd Press.)--Germany's ship-building activity was short-lived. The terms of the Versailles treaty, which deprived Germany of all her large commercial ships, brought many shipyards into existence and started a general con- struction boom. But the collapse of the mark, with consequent difficulties between labor and employers, and the troubles builders found in financing purchases of raw materials, called a sudden halt.
 Germany had to give up to its for mer enemies all of Its ships larger than 1,600 tons, and half of its ships with a tonnage between 1,600 and 100. Only ships suitable for coast wise shipping remained
 Roughly a total of 100000 tons of German shipping was turned over. As Ehere had been heavy loss of Ger man ships in the war, there were only e00,000 tons left after the terms of ehe Versailles treaty were executed.
 New ships were built, and Germans bought ships back from their former enemies until the German merchant fleet now has 2,60o,000 tons of bot toms, which is less than half the pre- war size, and less than per cent of the merchant shipping of the world.
 The government gave large sums to encourage ship-building, supplying two-thirds of the cost. But German money Sell in value so rapidly that government appropriations depre- Ciated before construction was com pleted on many of the ships. Iron and coal prices in Germany rose higher than world prices, and the general depression of world trade caused many ships to lie idle in German harbors, just as elsewhere. Shipown- CTS today are scarcely able to make operating expenses and have nothing left for building programs. German exuorts are now worth only about 1o0,00,o 900 gold marks monthly, which is about one-tenth of the pre-war Gigurss.
 Shipping circles are hoping for a resumption of the American grain Trade to Europe and 6 general i'm sprovement in the world trade Situa- Aion as an offset to the hard blow which the German internal situation has struck at shipbuilding and ship hperatfon.

MUSIC CRITICS GET JOLT

Musical modernists for long time have been suspected of trying tC fool the public, but the old school music critics got their real peak shock re- gently when the newest group of modernists announced themselves as leaders and composers of "wonderful sounds" under the name of The Arceuil Schotl."
 Arceuil is a suburb on the southern edge of Paris. It has a population of about 15,o0o and is noted for the bad odor which emanate from countless small factories and garbage plants.
 The school is composed of four serious looking young men, Henru Cliquet Pleyel, Roger Desormiere, Maxine Jacob and Henri Souguet. They were solemnly presented at the College de France last June by Eric Satie, we'll known In musical circles as one of the foremost makers tf discord and weired rythm. The school made it's concert debut recently in the Theatre Des Champs Elyses,

CAPPER URGED TO.
 GIVE UP PROGRAM.
Administration Chiefly Con- cerned Over Muscle Shoals
 Ideas Of Bloc Leader
WASHINGTON BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALD ] Washington, D. C., Nov. 10


 Administration leaders are appeal ing directly to Senator Arthur Cap per of Kansas, to abandon his leg islative program in so far as it in- cludes a revision of the tariff down. ward.
 Senator Capper is leader of the Rgrarian bloc in the upper chamber. He has enunciated a tentative legis- 1ative program for the relief of the award to Henry Ford of the govern ment's property at Muscle Shoals, reduced freight rates, and a down. ward revision of the tariff.
 The latter feature gives the ad- sninistration chief concern. The organ of the Coolidge administra- tion. directly appeals to Senator Cap- per as a "good republican" He is urged not reopen the tariff fight 'on the eve of a presidential elec- tion." This paper, as well as those Individuals who have spoken to Cap per in person, evidently holds that the republican members of the bloc, aligned With radicals" and demo- crats, would have power to revise the tariff if Capper leads & consci- wntious fight to that end.
 If the tariff Is put before the Senate, democrats will see to 1t that its tniQuities are further exposed, and this threatened exposition Is what distresses the administration. AS to whether Capper, who voted for the tariff and now confesses his er- Ror, yields to the political persuasion of politicians. or actively proceeds .n behalf of the farmers, will be de- pendent, it is regarded here, on whether Capper Is 8 real or sham friend of those he is thought par tioularly to represent.
 The report of Frank ". Mondell whom the President sent west to find out what the wheat farmers need. is regarded primarily as po- 1itical. MT. Mondell was, during last session of Congress, leader of the majority, and he was of the "reac- Gonary" school. He owes his defeat for the Senate to the farmers of his state. and 1t Is understood that he was easily persuaded that the ills of the farmers were of the "psychologi- cal'' variety.
 While his statement was long, 1t was in effect that the farmers can work out their own fate more &C., oeptaoly than Congress can. While st is said here that perhaps Mon dell, in a general sense, was cor rect, 1t iB regarded as probable that the farmers will not be satisfied when informed that their burdens are in reality no burdens at all.
 It Is this situation which makes she administration miserable be- cause of the threat of Senator Cap per to assail the tariff.

GOOD HOMES AID BETTER FARMING
Says Farm Home Is Chief Test Of Success In
 Agriculture

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 10.--The quality of life enjoyed by the farmers family Is the best criterion for Judging the success or failure of American farm ing. pr. Kenyon L. Butterfield of Amherst, Mass, president of the American Country Life association, said in an address here before the or- ganization's convention.
 The farm home is the chief test of successful farming, the heart and center of satisfying country life, the speaker said, and to perpetuate the industry 1t is necessary to conserve and develop American rural home life.
 We need first of all a few great centers of interest in the rural home problem" Dr. Butterfield continued. Schools of rural home life must form the nucleus of the educational work. But these schools must conceive their function in it's broadest aspect and they must understand the needs and atmosphere of the rural home. They will have to consider the community relationships of the rural home.
 Floor a long time to come reliance must be placed upon the more popu- lar method of discussing methods and stimulating interest, such as the eX- tension service of the agricultural l farmers organizations make the farm home and its full meaning to the na4 tion a big part of their program. I hope that government agencies, edu cational and administrative, will stress the significance of aid to the farm home. I should like to see edu- cation for the farm home made a dominant part of the work of schools and colleges that have any respon- sibility whatever in rural affairs.
 ''Of course it Is hopeless to main- tain a satisfying country life if, eco nomically, farming is a losing ven- ture. A satisfying country life means that there are people who like to farm. In common with all other men farmers resent injustice, and they want fair share of the product of their toll. But more than that they like the farm community, the open spaces, the wonderful fam

Rutgers Gets ReUenge

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Nov. 10. Rutgers college avenged a smashing defeat of Tuesday by West Virginia, crushing the University of Rich mond today, 56 to 0.
 The lighter southern team had no chance, Rutgers having the ball most of the time. The home team scored a touchdown in the first play of the game.
 The last seven minutes of the game was played in semi darkness, relieved by two powerful flood lights at either side of the visitors goal posts.

owned by Mime. Ganna Walska, the wife of Harold r. Mccormick, in a program that kept the audience thoroughly awaken and constantly amused. It surprised even the staid old orchestra players, who smiled in spite of the scowls of the sad faced young leaders who alternated in making strage motions that drew forth strange sounds.
 The Arceuil school has offered it. self as the successor of "The Six" a group headed by Darius Milhaud. who resigned the leadership Of the new music movement when the group was disbanded by reason of quarrels.

HOTEL HAS N0TED
 MEN FUR GUESTS
Manager Of Hotel CriIlon In Paris To Attend New
 York Meet


 PARIS. Nov. 1s.-(By Associated Press. )-The delegation of French hotel men which has arrived in New York to attend the sessions of the hotel mems conference includes enc man, Henri Dequis, manager of the Hotel de Crillon, who perhaps has housed more statesmen, certainly more prominent Americans. than any other hotel keeper in Paris since the World war began. All the bonifaces in the delegation, how ever, have many friends in the United States.
 M. de Quuis took care Of Col. Ed ward M. House, when he came to Paris in November, 1917, and whole Colonel House was a guest st his hotel David Lloyd George and Arthur J. Balfour, the British states man. had a suite opposite that of Colonel House. Dequls himself saw to the comfort of both the Ameri- can and British. He seemed to fore- see their every need.
 Toward the close of the conference
 
 services of NJ. Dequis were discussed at a little dinner given in the apart ment of Colonel House.
 "The British are sure to decorate him." said one member of the party. Colonel House looked at his plate thoughtfully for an instant and then remarked: T don't know what we can do for him in the way of decora- as a hin Elk p
 STAG HUNTING BY CAR
 Stag hunting by automobile is the latest novely in France. The Dow ager Duchess d'Uzes set the fashion the other day when her pack of deer hounds were cut in the Rambouillet forest. In part tho hunt was in true mediaval style, with red coated huntsmen astride their horses, cir cular brass horns slung Cn their backs. But the ultra modern also was there, in the form of motor car fitted with caterpillar wheels. like those used sometime ago in cross ing the Sahara desert and for cross country excursions up the slopes of the Alps and the Pyrennes.
 The stag hunt was strictly sc ciety affair, and the guests who preferred not to follow on horseback were conveyed to the meet in mail coaches, on which positions in gay livery made goodly show. The wheeled vehicles did their best to follow the chase but were limited to the roads A chauffeur replaced the position on the new hunt car, how ever, and took his party cross coun- try, but with speed and comfort that barely surpassed that of the armored tank.

LOS ANGELES, Cal. Nov. 10.-Half the patrons of the largest dance hall in Los Angeles are over fifty years old. Clutches cast aside and in- firmities forgotten, men and women who learned to waltz and polka back in the seventies are now crowding light-footed boys and girls out of the penny dance" pavilions here.
 The phenomenon isn't the result of a wholesale Steinaching or a newly discovered elixir of youth. Local boosters merely blame it. along with everything else, on the climate.
 There are more young old people In Los Angeles than in any other city in the world" says Fred H. Solomon, proprietor of the largest dance hall here.
 During the many years in which people have shuffled their feet over the floor of his penny dance," Solo, mon has made close observations of the ages, types and characteristics of his crowds.
 People who lived in the middle western states and who come here without ever having attempted much dancing go crazy over it." says Solo, mon "Old men and women come to my dance hall to speed through an evening. To some it Is laughable, this attempt of persons entering the shadowy period of life to dip into the receding elixir of the bowl of youth.
 Women, particularly old women, still romancing, practice the art of coquetry on the youths. And, most astonishing, some of them get away

Lovers of the Bard of Avon were busy during the last week organiz- ing gnd celebrating Shakespeare Day." In various parts of the coun- try in conjunction with the tercen- tenary of the First Folio. The main object of the gatherings was to raise money for the f100 fund needed to endow the projected memorial buildings at Stratford- Upon Avon.
 The most notable gatherings in London were at the Old Vic. home of Ehakespeare's plays, and the Hay market Theatre. Princess Mary and her husband, Lord Lascelles, attended the former meeting and interested themselves otherwise in the move ment. In many of the schools Shakespearean tableaux were shown as part of the childrens tribute to the memorial scheme.
 The old Vic was the scene of not able event In the history of English drama when performance of ''Troi- 1us and Cressida" was completed on Monday, as all the 36 plays attributed fo Shakespeare contained In the first folio then had been performed since 1914 in that theatre.
