The epitaph for the British soldier reads: They buried him among kings because he had done good towards God and towards his house."
 Belgium allowed one of her sol diers, blinded in battle, to select the Unknown's body, while four comrades who had lost a right arm
 and four who had lost left acted as pail bearers.
 After a night spent in prayer an Italian. gold star mother selected the casket for 1taly's Unknown by placing on it a white rose. The
 body was selected from the un- known dead in a little grave yard
 near the Adriatic sea. The sepul-
 chre of Victor Emmanuel, which was opened to receive the body, is the finest in Rome.
 It is regarded as fit that the tomb of Americas Unknown Sol dier should be within the shadow of Washington monument in Arl-

WASHINGTON Nov. 27-The decision of the jury of awards on the design for the completion of the tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington is being awaited here with much interest. The competi- tion has narrowed down to five models.
 The jury is conferring regarding the final selection with the Ameri- can Battle Monuments, Arlington National Cemetery and Fine Arts commission and will announce it's ultimate decision to Secretary of War Davis.
 Most European countries have buried their Unknown Soldier in some national shrine already erect ed, but America has yet to com plete her tribute.
 France, which was the first coun. try to honor the Unknown Soldier brought her dead from Verdun to rest beneath the Arc de Triumphe England took her hero from the blood soaked fields of Flanders and laid him in the stately halls oi Westminster Abbey. Italy opened the sepulchre of Victor Emanuel the highest honor she could ac- cord for her "Ignoti Militi."
 It was a Frenchman, Maurice Maunoury, commander of the 2Sth French artillery, who originated the idea of a memorial to the Unknown Dead of the world war When awarding prizes at the Lycee de Charlemagne he proposed a memorial to the poilu to symbolic the homage of grateful country France eagerly caught at the idea, and Joffre, Petain and Foch led the funeral cortege when the Un- known Poilu came home.

By FRANK |. WELLER "A. p. Farm Editor1

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.--Facine a multiplicity of difficulties carried over from two presidential vetoes, farm relief has another obstacle to hurdle as congress approaches. It's proponents are disagreed as to the proper time for renewing the battle.
 The short session begins Decem- ber 8 and Senator MeNary, co-au- thor of the twice defeated McNary- Haugen bill, is eager to initiate the first day with pronouncement of a new plan, broadly along the lines of his old bill, but eliminating the equalization fee. Senator Borah, admittedly close to the incoming administration. insists the farm question should be carried over to special session promised by MT. Hoover.
 Washington representative of various farm groups are lining up with the opposing views. Chester Gray of the American Farm Bureau Federation, is of the opinion con- gross has too much to do at the short session to consider farm re- lief properly. He believes it should be held for a special session, to start in April or May, and if nec- essary, continue until inauguration of the seventy first congress in December, 1929.
 The Grange. however, while awaiting expression of it's legisla- tive committee strongly fayors all possible speed Louis J. Tabor, national master, explains that the Grange does not favor nasty, slip shod legislation, and that while he personally believes more is to be gained by a special session, he welcomes the first opportunity to start a constructive program.
 Gray, who threw the whole strength of his organization be- hind the controyerted equalization fee until it became apparent con- gress never could enact it, is the most outspoken in agricultural cir cles as the new obstacle arises. He has not changed his position that farm relief and the removal of crop surplus are analogous, and that the commodity served should pay for the removal of it's own surplus.
 He sees in an attempt to rush remedial legislation through the short session a tendency to set up the MeNary- -Haugen machinery
