standpoint of their most advantag-
eous use.
Such a survey, according to Pro-
fessor Davis, would become the basis
for a land utilization policy that
would enable New England to locate
her agricultural industries in the reg
ions where enterprises might be con-
Quoted at lowest cost and insuring
the best economic use of each kind
Of land.
This would. incidentally, prevent
human suffering and economic losses
which result from the haphazard Sc
lection of farms by city bred people

who are ignorant Of what constitutes
sound farming business opportun-
ity, Professor Davis said,
Otner speakers on the days pro-
gram We're Willard A. Munson. d.
rector OF extension service at the
Massachusetts Agricultural college:
John 8. Lawrence, president of the
New England Council, Harry r. Lew
Is OF Davisville, r. l., chairman of
the New England Councils agricul-
turai committee, and Lieutenant
Governor Allen Of Massachusetts.
Virtually all Of the speakers iwelt
upon the increasing competition from
the west and midwest and urged
prompt measures to meet it. Com
petitors, they said, had learned the
wants OF the consumers and had met
them.
Mr.. Munson outlined a program IN
which authority would be given each
state department of agriculture to
establish voluntary grades for farm
products. He urged the establish
ment, Standardization and control of
brands by the state departments.
A comprehensive educational cam
paign would be- needed, he added, to
acquaint every farmer with the mar
ket situation and the need of pack
ing according to standard grades.
Collective effort should be made, he
said, in placing volumes of standard
lied products in the New England
markets under brands or trade
marks. After this is accomplished
it should be followed by a sound adj
vertising program.
More research work was needed, he
said. to best meet new problems of
agriculture.
Professor Davis, after urging in
yentory and classification of resource
es to take care of varying land con-
ditions, took up the problem of the
small farm, which, he said. was no
longer the best unit. He suggested
combining adjacent properties and
the renting of surplus houses to
summer visitors and to industrial
workers.
OF the problem of marketing he
declared that these perishable COM
modities can be sold under New Eng
land brands through the regular
channels of trade and at a profit to
the producer.
Mrs. Guy E. Spears. president of
the New Hampshire Federation of
NVomen's Clubs. told the conference
that there are 100000 families in
New England with yearly incomes Of
$4,000 and that this group constitutes
the market for the New England
farmers quality products.
At the same time the housewives
of this group want to know why their
lettuce should come from California.
spinach from Michigan and some
fruit from Europe, as well as why
New England products cost more
than those from the west despite
added transportation charges.
Definite grades Of farm products,
with a New England trademark that
would insure the consumer a square
deal, would result in a demand that
exceeded the supply of quality pro-
ducts, Mrs. Spears predicted.

for the interest rate.
President Coolidge's name was
brought into the proceedings with the
offer in evidence of letter Doheny
had written him on March s, 1924, re-
garding progress under the Pearl Har-
Dor contract. Government objections
to admission of the letter. on the
ground that it had no bearing on the
conspiracy charge, were sustained. and
the document did not go before the
jury. In whispered argument over the
bench 1t was stated by defense coun-

Government counsel late in the day
entered the preliminary stage of a
rigorous cross examination Of Mr..
Doheny but deferred their assault

the witness showed marked evidence
of fatigue.
Half dozen more witnesses from
Los Angeles, all of whom testified to

the defense case for the day. After

WILL PROPOSE j. S.
CANCEL COURT OK.
Senator TrammeII to Pre-
sent Motion in Congress.
Voted for Adherence.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Withdrawal of the Senate's ratifica-
ton of the World Court will be pro-
posed at the coming session of Con-
gress by Senator Trammell. Democrat.
Florida, one of those who voted for
the resolution of ratification.
The Florida Senator said yesterday
he had decided to make such a pro-
posal because of developments in Eu
rope. where an international confer
ence soon is to convene under the
auspices of the League of Nations to
discuss the acceptability of the res
ervations by which Senate ratification
of the court protocol was qualified.
Recently Senator Gooding. Republi-
can. Idaho, announced that although
he had supported the court, he now
opposed it because of changed condi.
lions resulting from the French atti-
tude toward the war debts Senator
Trammell said he knew of several
other Senators who likewise had come
to regret their support OF the court
and would vote for withdrawal, but
he named none of them.
Does Not Predict Result.
Neither did Senator Trammell at
tempt to assess the fun effect of the
campaign Waged by the courts oppO-
nentS since ratification or to predict
whether Il resolution of withdrawal
would carry. The Senate accepted the
court 76 to II. more than the re-
quired tWo-thirds. Senators are in
disagreement whether a simple ma
jOrity or a two-thirds vote would be
required to overthrow the action al
ready taken.
At the time the vote of ratification
was taken. Chairman Borah of the
foreign relations committee and others
OF the group of irreconcilableS oppOS-
ing the Court, gave notice that the
issue was not yet decided. They since
have made good their threat to carry
their fight to the country in a far
flung campaign in the newspapers and
on the stump.
When Senator Trammell introduces
the resolution of withdrawal made
public by him today 1t will go TO Sena.
tor Borah'S committee, Il ma jOrity OF
whose members are opposed to the
court. Presumably, the first test of
strength would come on the floor
itself should an attempt be made to
get the proposal up for action.
Five Nations Have Ratified.
Thus far only five small nations
have agreed to the Senate reserva-
tions, and more than Il score of others
who have membership in the court,
including all the great powers. are
withholding Il decision pending the
outcome of the conference to be held
at Geneva. In his resolution Senator
Trammell said that lit is now deemed
advisable to rescind" the Senate ratifi-
cation. since "the powers signatory to
the protocol have not indicated their
acceptance of the reservations and
understandings" upon which ratifica-
ton was based
The resolution would direct the
President to withdraw all notes and
communications" addressed to the ma.
tons holding membership in the court.
This would cancel the circular note
sent out by the State Department set
ting forth the conditions of American
adherence. and would leave the United
States just where 1t was before Ameri-
can membership was first proposed.

AVIATION ACCORD
REACHED IN GENEVA
Arms Farley Accepts Ameri-
can Regional and Com
merciaI Plane Views.

By the Associated Press.
GENEVA, August 2S.-The trouble
some problem of how to treat COM
mercial aviation in any convention
bearing on the reduction of arma-
ments was settled finally today by the
members of the preliminary disarma-
ment conference, in a manner 10
satisfy the United States. Argentina
and other countries of the western
Hemisphere and for the first time In
weeks unanimity was reached on
question of first Importance.
The solution provides that while
commercial aviation should be per-
mitted to develop freely and unre-
strictedly to the maximum CONNER
cial requirements of each country
its military value should be taken
into account in framing any conven-
ton for the limitation OF ornaments.
but that in so doing. particular at,
tention should be paid to the regional
aspect of the problem.
This embodies the principle for
which the Americans have fought
since the beginning of the conference.
namely, that reduction of ornaments
is essentially a regional problem and
best treated as such
Today's decision cannot be con-
strued, it is believed. as interfering
with the development of commercial
aviation in the United States. since
the American air service under no cir
cumstances could be considered as a
menace to Europe, nor American air
forces a menace TO the Western Hem
isphere.
Shou1d tbo priuciDlp he aUDl,ed at
the future disarmament conference, it
will be for European countries to de-
eide how far continental commercial
aviation should be restricted.
The delegates also voted that in fix
ing methods for reducing land forces
distinction should be made between
nations having CONSUMPTION and those
possessing standing armies.

Affection for Youth Held in

who is accused of manslaughter in
connection with the mysterious death
of the girl last Sunday.
When arraigned in Police Court to-

SO 900. The case was continued until
September 6. He is charged with adj
ministering drugs to her which caused

E,rmils part in the love tragedy
was brought out when detectives
found Dorothy's diary and letters
which BalaneScu had sent to her.

Day by day thereafter, the dairy
shows, her love increased for him,
though they quarreled at times and
often she found it hard to under
stand his moods.
Dorothy often displayed pride in
her lover in her references to his
commissions as medical delegate to
different parts of the country and
the researches in science which he
was undertaking-all just imagination
in the mind of Balanescu. in the de.
tectives' opinion.
Detectives compared these refer
ences to "Frenchy's" letters. In the
letters Emil sought to WOO the girl

physicians had sent him on.
