Say There's More Crime
WPeeP5 ! Ell,

Jacob Stager, for thirty-nne
years a magistrate in York, Penn,
says it has been his experience that
during the full of the moon more
people get into trouble than at any
other time in the lunar month.
When the moon is full his court
room is the same way, he observes,
and in the dark of the moon there
is quite a perceptible hull in bus
mess"
I'm not superstitious," AYERS the
magistrate, but my records will
show that there are more fights,
more cases of drunkenness and
more trouble in the full OF the
moon than at any other time"
Squire Stager is known as the
""dean Of the Pennsylvania magis-
trates."

MEASLES DEADLIER THAN

Statistics Also Show That Female Is
More Deadly Than Male.


Measles are deadlier than murderes
in Great Britain, says a London dis
patch. The reason is that almost ev-
eryone can lug measle germ around
in his pocket while toting a gun is
dangerous business.
One hundred and thirty-eight per-
sons out of each 100000 in Britain
die of measles annually while murder
ers reduce each million by six Grim
inals compelled" to Stay account for
FIVE out of each six murders, accord
ing to the statistics, and only one per-
son in 100000 succumbs to deliberate
murder.
The British female is more deadly
than the male. Eighty-three men were
convicted of murder in 1928, and 81
women. Thirteen men and one wo-
man were hanged.

FRANCE unable
TO PAY Interest

Paris.-M Violette, reporter-general
of the budget, has virtually confessed
the inability of France to meet in
terest payments on her huge debt.
If it is impossible to find relief from
interest charges now amounting to up
ward of one billion dollars annually,
Violette told the chamber of deputies,
at. soon would be impossible to draw
up new budget"
1.-THE budget we are now presenting
(that for 1921" Violette said, rep
resents the maximum effort of French
taxpayers. We must reduce public ex-
penditures in 1926"
Violette pointed out that the ex-
penses of the government were equal
to half of the annual gross income of
French citizens.
Violette warned the chamber the
limit had been reached. Violette is
chairman of the finance committee of
the chamber.

AMERICANS LEAVE
OPIUM CONFERENCE

Geneva.-The American delegation
withdrew from the League of Nations
antidrug conference here. This &C.
tion was taken on the authority of
President Coolidge after a so-called
uper-conferenoe of 16 nations had
discussed report rejecting practically
the proposals submitted at Geneva by
Congressman Stephen Porter and his
colleagues.
The first reaction among the dele
gates of the great powers to the Amer
ican withdrawal was one Of disappoint-
ment and encouragement. Viscount
Cecil of Chelwood, head of the British
delegation, seemed almost overcome
when informed of it.
The second reaction among the dele
gates of some of the great powers
was disappointment plus the declara-
tion that Mr.. Porter's action was un-
necessary, anyway premature.
The Chinese delegation also with
drew from the conference, following
the withdrawal of the United States.

JARD|NE CH0SE:ii FUR
AGRICULTURAL POST
Appointments to Cabinet For
New Term Completed BY
President Coolidge.

Washington, d. C.-President Cool
idge completed the cabinet that will
serve with him after March 4 with
the appointment of William M. Jar
dine of Manhattan, Kan, president of
the Kansas State Agricultural college,
to be secretary Of agriculture.
All posts now are filled, the only
hitch being the opposition in the SEN
ate to confirming the nomination of
Charles B. Warren of Michigan to be
attorney.general.
The special session of the senate on
March 4, however, is expected to dis
pose of this stumbling block. Con-
forming to his policy of cleaning off
his desk in preparation for his new adj
ministration, the president also sent
to the capitol the nomination of Frank
B. Kellogg of Minnesota, now ambas-
sador to Great Britain, to be secre-
tary of state, succeeding Charles
Evans Hughes, March 4.
Cecil Cree], director of the Univer-
sity of Nevada Agricultural college, is
expected to get the assistant secre-
taryship when Jardine takes office.
Jardine is a product of Idaho
ranches, on which he was born Janu-
airy 16, 1879. Moving to Kansas about
1900, he took up agriculture from the
academy standpoint, teaching several
agricultural schools. Later he became
affiliated with the federal government
in experimental work. He was nam
ed president of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural college in 1918 after eight
years in connection with it. Recent
ly he was a member of the presi-
dents agricultural commission, whose
recommendation now are pending
before congress.

ENGLAND ASKS THAT
FRANCE PAY Debt
Payment Requested Irrespec.
tive of Proceeds From Ger.
man Preparations.

London. Great Britain's note to
France explaining the Baldwin govern.
ments viewpoint ON the question of
the repayment of Frances debt to
Great Britain lays down succintly the
principles of which Great Britain
hopes France will agree to meet her
obligations, without going into any
details or figures. The idea is ad-
vanced that details may be threshed
out in conference here, should Pre-
mier Herrot or Finance Minister
Clementel, or both, come to London
for this purpose.
The main points of the note are:
First, that Great Britain declines
to agree that Frances payments
should be dependent upon Germany's
full payment of the Dawes plan an
nuities.
Second, that with a view to facil-
itating repayments Great Britain is
willing to accept fixed annual pay
ments, irrespective of the Dawes pro-
ceeds, with further annual charge
on the French share in those proceeds,
and
Third, that Great Britain will de-
vote any surplus beyond requirements
for her American Indebtedness to
diminish the burdens upon Great Bri-
tain's allies.
