According to statistics compiled by
the United States Department of
Agriculture, there were $50 aban-
doned farms in Maine in 1924, an
increase of lie per cent. over the
preceding year. The proposition to
colonize these farms by special ex-
emption in the immigration laws to
admit desirable aliens who will take
up these farms, is not meeting with
favor in Washington. We do not
think it an altogether desirable solu-
ton of the problem, The Farm
Bureau is working on more de-
sirable lines. Put farming on bust
ness basis-a paying business basis
by scientific and intelligent farming
and cooperative marketing, and the
abandoned farm question will take
care of itself.

FOREIGN STUDENTS
 FIND CHRISTIANITY
 LACKING IN AMERICA
fBv Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Apr. 17.-America has the largest enrolment of foreign students in the world and many of these youths, composing the great est student migration in history, are struggling against heavy odds of in hospitality and race prejudice while carrying on their studies, according 10 the findings of a committee of Investigators. An expansion of the Friendly Relations committees of the Young Mems Christian and the Young WOmen's Christian AssOcia- tions, the Investigating group is com posed of 24 representatives of many welfare and denominational bodies. It is called the Commission on Sur vey of Foreign Students in the Uni ted States, and it's labors in this field have taken three years.
 The need for self-support has been n osmall factor in the lives of these young students from distant lands, the commission found, and many have taken back a sense of disillu- sionment as to Americas ideals and practices. Some find that "the Christianity acquired from American missionaries was not confirmed by the Christianity they met in the land which sent the missionaries

 We can, if we will" says Dr. Speer, send back each year to their many lands, an army of ambassadors of goodwill and helpful intercourse. The church may find in these thous- ands of students as many mission aries to carry Christianity back to their own people,"

 SEATTLE, Apr. 1S.-Ray Zbinden was arrested yesterday on a warrant charging him with additional forger- ies of papers on which money was borrowed on automobiles for secur- ity.
 Prosecutor Colvin issued the war rant after denouncing Judge Walter M French of Kitsap county sitting here for suspending the sentence of Zbinden, the scion of an influential family in a previous case, where he confessed he obtained one thousand dollars by swindles to finance rum runners who told him they lost all they had thru hijackers.

 There are more than 5000 of these students in colleges and universities of the United States and 5000 more in secondary schools, the iepor6 sets forth. Fifteen hundred are women The condition of these young people 1 the problems involved, and sugges- tions as to their treatment are set forth in the report.
 American life and the Christ tian church never have met more se- were and searching test" says Dr. Robert E. Speer, secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian church, than in the presence of these foreign students. 1 They will not carry back what they do not get, and they will not get what we cannot or do not give"
 Dr. Speer points out that not all these students have been disappoint- ed and that thousands have gone home with strength and faith. Tn general the results of study abroad are more beneficial than detrimental to the cause of international friend ship and of the church.
 The other side of the picture is suggested in detailed statements by students of painful experiences, and their complaints of political and com mercial dishonesty in America, nor al 1aXity, craze for organization, and imperialism" which they compare with what they have seen and heard of American ideals and achievements. Much of this criticism" says the report, lis unquestionably sincere. Some of it comes from intolerance and from lack of energy in appropri- ating what is offered
 A Japanese observer writes: T can readily name 20 young Japanese who intended to become ministers and entered American theological semin-' aries, but later changed their minds and entered education, or business of official service" Elmer Yelton, executive secretary of the commis- sion, asserts that 'the fact cannot be ignored that there is among for eign students in the United States "a rising tide of criticism of the whole Christian movement"
 Suggestions from representative American leaders show unanimity of opinion that responsibility for work among foreign students rests upon the Christian people of America working thru the church and it's agen- cies, the Y. M. c. A. and Y. W. c. A., college faculties and student boards of advisors, with the special help of the Friendly Relations committees already organized.
 The data upon which the report is based has come from hundreds of sources at home and abroad. Re- plies to questionnaires were receiv- ed from S30 foreign students in more than 400 different colleges and uni versailles of the United States. About 25 per cent of college administra tors who have to do with foreign stud ents' problems replied to question naires. There were also replies from church pastors and Y M. C. A. and

nounced in no uncertain terms

cheapest thing they could find,
and the rent goes to $500

the couple does not use them,
but Sept. they must move,
Then what?
There is grave concern among
those who have the best inter
ests of the State at heart, for
says the Miami Herald:
Newcomers seldom linger more
than few days or few weeks.

Space forbids further compare
tive prices but the Child n Georgia
Ipays from SEQ per cent to 1000 per
cent more fer books than the child
in Ontario. What is the result?
The Minister of Education in On
tarjo says that illiteracy is scarcely
factor in the Province, while in
the country counties of Georgia,
the illiteracy Of white children aver
ages 7 per cent aud of negro chill
dren 81 per cent. The illiteracy #
the white children in the country
districts has been reduced l per
cent in the last Is years. SOME
PROGRESS, Ell? The high priced
books prevent our children from
buying, and we have a compulsory
attendance law Under this Bill you
can get for Georgia children the
best texts that love and money can
supply, SO cheap that every child
can be supplied.
We are spending millions land it
is all rightly to have carved upon
Stone Mountain the statues Of our
beloved President Davis and our
loved General Lee and others that
the Yankee school books mention by
foot note and devote 20 pages
to Grant, and this book was adopt
ed in the Atlanta schools. What
do you think Of this? You have the
golden opportunity Of breaking the
shaclles of the Infamous BOOK Trust
both as to cost and eliminating il
Iiteracy in Georgia.
From 1912 to 1916 the prices Civ
IN obtained in Ontario, but when
the War came on, prices advanced
some, and the Province bore the ad-
vance, but even at the prices aver
aged 500 per cent less than is paid
in Georgia. In the adoption Of
1913, the Primer cost 12c; in 1918,
the Primer cost Ice; in 1923. the
Primer cost 42c. Why this robbery
under the form Of law? We have
100000 children using the Primer.
At the last adoption the change in
Biographies alone cost the children
Of Georgia over two hundred thou
sand dollars, and we did not get as
good text as was on the adopted
list. Ask Prof. Ballard, Tx. State
School superintendent
Gentlemen, one million school
children pray your help today. 'For
in as much as We have done it unto
one of the least of these, We did it
unto me-"
We have offers to print Primers
at 12c, Readers from 16c to zoe,
the publishers to furnish plates,
etc.
This is the bill that Prof. Mathis
came to Atlanta and spoke against.
