 Moscow, Aug. 1.--After a series of hurried conferences with the govern ment respecting the present status of the Anglo o-Russion conference, M. Rakovsky the principal soviet dele gate, left yesterday for London by airplane.
 Tn collaboration with the council of commissars he has formulated a set of new proposals for submission to the British government which, in the opinion of responsible officials here. removes the obstacles which hitherto have hindered a successful outcome of the conference.
 While some of these proposals are suggestive of the previous soviet for mulae for a settlement, it is believed in governmental quarters that their more liberal ch5racte will convince the British government of the sheer ity of the soviet desire to reach an early solution. It is also thought that the new terms will satisfy the British bondholders and result ultimately in a loan from British bankers under guarantee from the London govern ment.
 In framing fresh proposals regard ing the claims of former British property owners in Russia, the coun- ci of commissars was particularly careful to conserve the soviet laws concerning nations lization of property and to guard against the sacrifice Of any of the soviet revolutionary prin- ciples

Big Reduction Cited

Farmers have decided the ques.
ton for themselves to some extent,
Hammatt says. in that the 1858 500
acres planted in 1919 has now been
reduced to 5T1I1, 900 acres.
Fifty years ago when Danish
farmers were confronted with the
competition of cheap grain from;
America and Australia, which was
flooding the European market, they
abandoned grain as a money crop
and turned to diversified farming.
Chris l.. Christensen, agricultural
economist for the United States De
partmeat of Agriculture, tells from
his studies Of agricultural coopera-
ton in Denmark. Minnesota is an
example of State which used t.
be considered corn and wheat terri
tory. but is now mainly concerned
with dairying.
