Cheaner Money

Even a food can bring some benefit
To rehabilitate their desolated lands Southern
States are turning to the Federal farm loan board.
Which means that thousands Of farmers Will
probably discover for the first time how cheaply
and easily money can be borrowed from an interme-
date credit bank
Mississippi rehabilitation corporation has al
ready arranged for $4000,O00 advance. similar
corporation is being organized in Arkansas The OBJ
ject lesson can be expected to spread to other
States.
The present corporations will be in the hands
of bankers and business men, of course But it
won't require intensive thinking after the flood is
over for farmers to realize that by proper organiza-
tion they can use this of credit directly.
Aaron Sapiro, farm cooperative expert, claims
that use of Federal credit by the Texas Cotton Grow
ers Association reduced the cost of crop loans from
10 per cent for few months to 6h per cent for an
entire year.
Federal credit is available to any cooperative
marketing association able to show that it fills
need controls sufficient amount of the commodity
to function economically and has sound marketing
program and business organization"
The intermediate credit system created
March 4, 1923 Up to the end of 1925 cooperatves
had borrowed only $215949,0S4.

Unpuzzling the Chinese Puzzle

CHANGING over the headlines before he takes his
family to the movies, the average busy American
once more finds his news from China as mysterious
as a bowl of birds-nest soup.
A couple of months ago the situation under
standable
The Southern nationalists had captured Hankow,
Shanghai, Marking and other strategic points con-
trolling middle and south China, and were headed
straight for Picking and complete victory.
Then something happened. The drive north
ward slowed down. 1t seemed to be losing
ground, in places, before the northerners The
tionaliss split up into two camps, moderate, and
the other radical, today all is confusion again
Basically, however, it is quite simple.
Three factions are now maneuvering for advan-
tage, each seeking control over all China, while
fourth is holding off with everybody wondering what
it will do
First, have the northern, or Pekin faction,
headed by the former bandit king, Marshal Chang
Tso-Lin, war lord of Manchuria. The Pekn crowd
until recently, had the advantage of being recognized
by the foreign powers as the government of China
Second, there is the moderate nationalist gov
eminent of Marking, chief of which is Gen. Chang
Kai-Shek, the man who, up to six weeks ago. seemed
about to capture Pekin the capital. 4.
Third, there are the radicals with headquar
ters at Hankow. These the Chinese who have
Moscow leanings. Formerly part of General
Chiang's nationalists, they read out of the
party or kicked out, by Chang following the killing
of an American and other foreigners at
Marking.
Fourth, comes Marshal Feng Yu-Hsiang the so
called christian general" who with approximately
100000 men, is playing a. waiting game encamped
northwest of Hankow On the flank of any northern
attack against the southerners, of the southern
ers against the northerners, Feng's group consti
tutes sort of balance of power.
What Marshal Feng will do no man can say
until it's DONE He has way of suddenly changing
his mind in the middle of battle He has literally
done that very thing, turning certain victory for
the one side into certain victory for the other,
There you have it. For the moment events are
marking time, but the indications are that there
will be something stirring SOON
Shanghai is seething with rumors of the most
sensational order. Moscow accuses Chang moder-
ate nationalist with having sold out to Britain
japan and the rest of the great powers Feng is
accused of being the tool of the communists There
is gossip of this that leader feathering his own
nest at the expense of his cause and a thousand
and one other whsperngs. -,
But through it all, the one point we Americans
should not lose sight of is this: Young China ma
tonalst China, is on the and nothing can pre-
venther ultimately reaching the goal of real nation
hood and complete independence no matter what
may happen now.
1t is possible, even virtually certain, that it is
going to take not only this, but many more such
efforts for China to get what she wants.
Meantime let's not allow ourselves to become
cynics. We can help by being fair.

Knighthood Flowers Again

What with bobbed-haired bandits lady thugs,
feminine forgers, girl go-betweens, and the more
deadly variety of husband killers, it might that
womankind, in her found freedom Of the nine
teenth amendment had carried this business of
equality with man shade too far.
Man now admits, though perhaps with bit of
shame, that woman is at times his equal in evil
deavor as well as in good. The charge that woman.
kind is hardened in her emancipation is not without
grounds and the oldfashoned chivaIry grows pale
and wan.
When aMaryland judge, therefore, frees wom-
who pleads guilty to the embezzlement of some
$4,000, solely because she is woman, the happen
ing is so unusual that it is sent fther and yon by
Geographic news service for the people to see and
marvel at.
81 come of stock" said the judge in handing
down his opinion that never believed in punishment
of a woman until she should become so deprayed
that she was dangerous to the public at large"
Here is a gentleman of the old school. Here is
chvalry of the kind that iourished when knighthood
was at its foweriest. Here is throwback to the
happy philosophy which held all women good women
just because they women. Under its teaching,
no woman might ever see the inside of house of
correction unless she became recruited to the ranks
of the machine gunnefs.
1t would be pretty indeed for the world to turn
back once more to codeN such as the Maryland
judge advocates His decision is an optimistic note
in the symphony of the times-a symphony played
largely with the crashing of cymbals of pessmism.
1t is, however, note doomed to die. Woman has
gained her equality with man and as she stands in
any court of the land she must be prepared to take
its findings under the same laws and the same codes
that mete out justice to men.

The bidding should be: South one
No Trump which would obtain the
contract. The play to the first trick
should be: West, Six of Clubs;
North Dummy, -Four of Clubs; East
Jack Of Clubs; South CLOSED Hand,
Ace Of Clubs.
The point to be noted Is the play
Of the Ace of Clubs when the Queen
could win the trick and leave De
clarer with the Ace. The reason for.
this unusual play is that Declaro&
can see that his sure tricks are twN
Clubs, four Hearts and one Diamond;
but to go game, a Diamond finesse
must be tried. Should he win the
first trick with the Queen of Clubs,
put Dummy in with a Heart and try
a Diamond finesse, it Is very possible
that West would win the trick and
lead a Spade instead Of continuing
with Clubs. The Spade lead, if East
have the Ace, would be fatal to the
Declarer by saving the game for the
adversaries. If Closed Hand win the
first trick with the Ace Of Clubs and
the Diamond finesse lose, West hav-
ing the King will naturally Place the
Queen Of Clubs in East's hand and,
thinking that between them they
have the entire Club suit, will con-
tinue the Clubs-not shift to Spades.
This will ensure game for Declarer
who, by apparently sacrificing one
Club trick gains three in Diamonds
and does not lose his Club trick
either. An examination of the way
the hand would work out will show
the wisdom Of the play recommend
ed for the Closed Hand on trick l.

Fine SuperfIuouS

Harry r. Sinclair has been SEN
fenced to three months in Jail and
fined $500 for refusing 10 answer
questions put to him by a Senate
committee.
The jail sentence is no more than
he had coming, but the fine seems
supertluous.
Fines. should be abolished except
in cases Of technical offense. They
represent a clear discrimination in
favor of the rich and well TO do.
1t is just as hard for a millionaire
to serve a Jail sentence as it is for
a common laborer; perhaps, a little
harder; but he can pay n fine with
out feeling that might be impossible
for the latter.

Which Faction

Anti-Saloon League, now in session at
Washington, interrupts its plotting
against Governor Smith long enough
to tell President Coolidge that he
must appoint Roy 4. Haynes, pro-
hibition commissioner.
Secretary Mellon does not want
Haynes, Assistant Secretary An
drews doesn't want Haynes and
other treasury heads do not want
Haynes, but the Anti-saloon League
does.
1t will be interesting to see which
faction in this controversy has more
influence with President Coolidge.

Huerta Admits

Adolfo de la Huerta. former pres
ident of Mexico, admits that revolu-
tionary forces are fighting under his
banner, but denies that. he has con-
spired to violate the neutrality laws
eof the United States.
1t would be interesting to know
why these revolutionary forces are
so jealous in his cause if he has
done nothing to assist them
Either Senior de la Huerta is over
ly optimistic with regard to the at
titude of these revolutionists, or
they are peculiarly generous and
loyal.
Ordinarily, Mexican revolutionists
expect more than moral support
from a leader who remains in the
United States.

" Says:
He Is Betting Himself
but on q Bunch of
Machinery.
By NJ f. Tracy

One does not have to be very
imaginative to realize the chance
Lindbergh has taken. He is betting
not only on himself, but on a bunch
of machinery.
He must keep awake for thirty
five or forty hours, but that will do
no good unless, the engine continues
to run.
If a wire doesn't come loose, a
strut doesn't give way, a valve
doesn't stick, wing doesn't break or
any one of thousand things
doesn't happen that might easily
happen, he will win

Something Wrong

Sir William Joynson-H Hicks, Brit
ish home secretary, did not tell the
House of Commons much about the
recent police raid on the Russian
trade delegation in London last
Thursday, though he had promised
full and complete statement.
OF more significance still, the
British reply to Russias note of
protest is being held up.
Something evidently went wrong
in that raid, and something is evil
