FARMS TO GET
OUTSIDE HELP
Coulter Says Federal Govern
ment and Other Agencies
Will Give Aid

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 15.-(F)-Much
will be done in the near future by
the federal government and other
outside agencies to aid the farming
industry, President John Lee Coul-
ter, at the North Dakota Agricul-
tural college, said at the opening
session today Of the annual confer
ence Of members of the staff of the
extension division.
There will be much more Wig
orous pursuit of opening of water
ways for cheaper transportation of
agricultural products, such projects
as the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
waterway and the deepening of the
Mississippi river channel. Lowered
transportation costs which will re-
suit from combination water and
freight rates may change North Da-
kota's distance to water outlet
from $500 miles relatively to 500
miles," the president continued.
Undoubtedly many favorable
tariff changes will be made on such
products as flax, grain, butter, wool
and meats, and these changes will
accelerate diversified farming devel-
opment in our state.
more research work will be done
in the utilization of agricultural by
products.
"A federal farm board will be
established with adequate finances
to handle such situations as tenn
porary market gluts and the sea
sonal variations in production OF
different commodities.
"More money will be available to
secure new varieties of crops re-
sistant to disease, drouth and other
damage factors"

One expedition under the head of

4 man and woman who between
them share the responsibilities OF the

"Women have encountered greater
opposition in the ministry than in

Interested in Problems
After graduating from Mt. Holy
oke College, Miss Eby completed
the four-year course at Union Theo-
logical Seminary in three years. She
has spent the last two years abroad
studying theology and religion at
MArburg University, Germany, and
at the University Of Edinburgh in
Scotland.
Miss Eby believes that woman's
greatest service as minister will
be her ability to help with the prob
lens of women and children. She
does not expect them to bring up
the masculine attendance.
Curiosity always will bring out
a fairly large congregation the first
time q woman preaches," she said.
II know that from experience. But

them that they are willing to re-
ceive."

dice against women in the church it.

terrain denominations will not ordain
women, though the Unitarian, Bap-
fist, Congregational and Methodist
will. In liberal churches and among
the younger ministers there is no
feeling of discrimination against a
woman, but there is no denying that
it exists among more conservative
groups and among the older clergy

Miss Eby admitted that the young.

should be, and they would be if they

New York, Dec. 15.-(NEA)-
Seven years ago, Betty Meehan
danced in a Follies chorus. In odd
hours, along with other "ladies of
the ensemble" she boosted her in
come by playing extra roles at a
Long Island film factory:
The other day, Miss Elizabeth
Meehan, who still could pass the
meticulous muster of any music
show producer, both for face and
figure, came back to Manhattan with
the prize scalps of scenario-land
dangling from her sinuous waist.
Only few intinates had known
that the Betty Meehan of the chorus
was the Elizabeth Meehan whose
name could be found on such super
productions as "Beau Geste," "Sor-
rel and Son" and "The Great
Gatsby"; the same Elizabeth Meehan
who had been selected to adapt to
screen form the great Conrad epic,
"The Rescue" and who now holds
conferences with Fannie Hurst on
the screen version of "Lummox."
In other words, Betty Meehan, of
the chorus, has become one of the
four or five outstanding scenarists
of the moment. Which is doing
rather we'll for a chlorine and an
extra girl.
Miss Meehan, to the contrary, is
quite astounded to find that anyone
should consider her rise exceptional.
