WAR DEBT DECISION.
DESIRED THIS WEEK.
Administration Seeks Action
and Makes italian Plan
r. Key to All Problems.
By the Associated Press.

by the ASsCCldteO EEcss
The Administration hopes for an
early conclusion of Americas war debt
funding negotiations.
A decision by the Senate on the
italian debt and the five other agree
ments negotiated during the past year
will be sought this week.
If successful in this move, there is
every indication that the American
debt commission will resume confer
ences Immediately with France aand
Jugoslavia, the only heavy debtors
who have not yet come to terms.
Not Optimistic.
Conferences between Ambassador
Berenger of France and Secretary
Mellon have laid the groundwork for
resumption of negotiations with
France, but officials here are not so
optimistic over the nearnesS of an
agreement as French authorities are
quoted as being.
Nevertheless the principal STUN
bling blocks in the unsuccessful con-
ferences of last Fall between the debt
commission and French Finance Min
lister CaSllaux have been gone over
thoroughly and the road has been
paved for new meetings. Ambassa-
dor Berenger, a member of CaillauX's S
has devoted his attention to q solu.
ton of the debt problem.
Await Decision on Italy.
It is evident that the Treasury still
holds that the italian settlement,
which has been under severe attack
in the Senate, is the key to future
settlements. Representatives of Ju-
goslavia have been here for several
rr,1,i yitt,,n 11x-
have been agreed upon, a decision by
the Senate on the Italian settlement
is awaited before final step Is taken.
Chairman Smoot of the Senate
finance committee, a member of the
American debt commission, an
nounced yesterday he would recall
the Italian settlement before the Sen
ate on Tuesday.

THAT TIRED FEELING"
UNKNOWN TO FARMER
Despite Depression, He Is Working
II Harder Than Ever,
Says Report.
Bv the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, April 10.-The ag-
ricultural development of the United
States may be tagging behind the
progress made in commercial, finan- l.
cial and industrial fields, but this is
not due to any prevalence of that
tired feeling" among American farm
eTs.
A statement today by the National
Industrial Conference Board asserts
that while agriculture is not forging
ahead as rapidly as other branches
of our national economic life, the
American farmer is more efficient,
cultIvates more, ground, and pro-
duces greater crops than he ever
has before and than the farmer of
any other country does.
During the five-year period preced-
ing the war, PA acres were being
cultivated per farm worker in this
country as against 1876 in Scotland
e.5 in England, S.3 in France. 60
I'm Germany and AZ in Italy. From
1910 to 1920 efficiency of farm labor
increased 2S per cent the volume OF
crop production despite a 9 per cent
decrease in the number of farm
workers.
Increasing productivity is attrib-
uted by the board to greater use
of power and machinery.

WI HOLDING PEKING
AFTER Clever COUP
Feng Out of Picture, With
Chang Seeking Chance +
to Regain Power.
Rv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PEKING, April 10.--Marshal WI
Pei-Fu, leader of the Chihli party,
ousted from control of the Peking
government Il year and a half ago by
Marshals Chang Tso-Lin and Feng
Yu-Hsiang, once more dominates the
capital of China.
A bloodless coup d'etat, carried out
early today by leaders of the kuo-
minchun national armies), formerly
followers of Marshal Feng, placed
Chief Executive Tuan Chi-Jui under
restraint, freed his predecessor. for.
mer President Tsao-Kun, and called
Marshal WI ito restore the political
situation in Peking."
Thus WI is able to return to the
capital, backed by his own Hupeh
army, and acknowledged as chief by
the Kuominchun, the creation of his
bitter enemy, Feng, whose leadership
the national army generals no longer
admit. Feng is believed to have re-
tired to Urga, Mongolia.
Alliance Broken Up.
The coup means a complete realign-
ment of the forces striving for mas.
terry in Northern China. 1t breaks
the antikuominchun alliance between
Wu and Chang TSo-Lin and his Man
Notwithstanding army. While the
kuominchun hold Picking, backed by
Wu's army on the south and
southwest, the Manchurian-S Shantung
forces, presumably hostile to the new
combination, threaten the city from
the east and northeast. In view or
the strength of the Wu-Kuominchun
alliance, Chang is not expected TO take
the offensive soon.
The turnover is the outgrowth of
negotiations carried on for the last
week between the Kuominchun lead
ers and Marshal WI, who. with the
Hupeh army, with which he has ad-
vanced from the Yangtze River in the
last two months, has been awaiting
the expected call at Paotingfu, ~
miles southwest of Peking.
Coup Carried Out Quietly.
The coup was carried out quietly at
9 O'Clock this morning The body
guard OF the chief executive was dis
armed without struggle and SUP
mitted to being transferred TO the
southern part of the imperial city
where they were enrolled in the
Kuominchun. The detection OF this
force, which was Marshal Tuan's chief

made available by the diplomatic
corps to pay the guard and Peking
police, is alleged to have been retained
by the chief executive.
Secrecy surrounded the preparations.
The great gates which pierce the
massive walls of Peking were closed
late last night, the telephone service
cut off and the residence of the chief
executive surrounded by the Kuomin-
chun troops.

POPE GETS RADIO PLANT.
Transmitting Outfit, Gift of Ameri-

BY Radio to The Star and the Chicago Daily
ROME, April 10.-The Vatican an
nounced today that the first radio
transmitting apparatus ever installed
within it's sacred precincts would be
ready for installation in June in the
Vatican observatory.
The plant is the gift of the Ameri-
can inventor, John Hayes Hammond,
jr. Space already has been cleared in
the observatory, a large room beside
the hall of honor being set aside for It,.
The plant will broadcast scientific
communications from the observatory
and from the Pontifical Academy of
Sciences. 1t Is stated that the gift
was accepted by the Pope "for scien-
tific purposes" but 1t is considered
probable that later the plant will be
used to broadcast pontifical messages
to the whole world.

despite the protests Of several
ministers who objected to the break
ing of the Sabbath by playing base
ball whether on a dirt diamond or
an electric scoreboard.
Ministers Deplore
During the week, the ministers
adopted resolutions "deploring"
Editor Whites hospitality when he
printed a piece in his paper for EN-
porians to "eat late Sunday
dinner and come on down and watch
the game" The ministers objected
on the grounds that such an in
vitation interfered with the intent
and purpose OF Sunday in Emporia.
Editor Whites town is strict about
such things as Sunday baseball and
musical comedies where figures, not
notes, are featured. Several shows
in which feminine charms were re-
ported to be displayed generously,
were forbidden to play in Emporia
recently.
But all that is beside the point.
Editor White had put up the score
board and he was determined the
baseball fans, deprived OF actual
flesh and blood Sunday playing,
should follow the fortunes of the
western favorites, the Cardinals, on
his scoreboard.
White Answers
no TIT 81
resolutions, White answered by ask
ing editorially, just how many hours
after church services did the Sunday
baseball game cease TO be a sacrilege
and become just a ball game.
He asked for information as 70
whether the game became less sin
full as the interval between tho par.
sons benediction and the umpires'
play ball increased.
There was no replay forthcom-
ing from the pastors. They felt they
had done their duty.
Fans on His Side
So Editor White felt his obliga-
ton to the fans was finished only
when the last play of the final in
ming had been flashed on the score
board.
, And today the hundreds of fans
who swarmed in front of the Ga,
zette off1ce-many Of whom had fid-
geted all during the morning sermon
for fear they would miss the first
inning-were on "Bill" Whites side.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH

Douglas Combs, colored employee

of Magnolia and Grant Streets, car
ried a heavy charge Of electricity into
the plant where the unfortunate
negro took hold of light socket. AL
most instant death was the result.
Efforts to resuscitate him were made
but without avail. 1t was learned
that during the morning several of
the employees, as we'll as Others in
nearby buildings, had received light
shocks when canning in contact with
electric wiring but nothing was re-
