 nyersations between the Japa- noso delegations and Washington officials indicate that the Japanese have a, fixed idea of what constl- tutcs a navy for defensive purposes For one thing, it would change the 5-5-S ratio of the Washington con- ference to a 10-10-7 ratio. which would give Japan more ships. Rather than decreasing the need for ships since the Kellogg pact was written it would seem that Japan thinks she requires more war boats.
 After conferring with Amcrlcal officials. the Japanese delegates who stopped off in Washington while cn route to London ti an understanding on cruisers witt the American government. Thl' shifts interest so far as these nation are concerned 10 other types of Ncs sels-battleships and particular. submarines
 The Japanese contention regarding the need for large fleets of sub marines is easily understandable Submarines are an effective weapon and give nations with an infcrIorit
 complex in large ships that specie
 of satisfaction which comes with in
 knowledge that the submarines ca
 keep them at safe distance necessary. The Japanese high re gard for submarines, Of course, opposed to the English view. whiC regards them with much alarm.

Dear Dad: I've got a bit of news for you which will surprise you. ] am en- gagged. Just think of that. Her name is Marjorie Wheeler. of very good family. She is twenty-thrce. and is the most adorable creature that ever lived.
 Her father, who. l gather, was an engineer, has been dead for three years, and it was in consequence of this that the dear girl, to help her mother, pluckIlY set out to earn her own living. Finding that office worK was bad for her health, she gave mp and has been on the stage for two years and eleven months.
 l spotted her first in the chorus and fell head over ears in love with Ter right away Much against her will, have induced her 10 give up her stage career, which is full Of promise, when she marrics mo. Bless her dear heart. She is longing 10 see you and I am longing 10 introduce her. I know you'll love her. As I've had some heavy expenses | lately, could l have my quarter! 1 chcquc for $500 in advance?

the bank in turn begins to exert pressure upon the mortgagee to pay his tax at no less than a year or so after they are due, something may have to give way. The tax col lcctor usually is as eager to get what's due as the banks are to in slst that mortgage payments be made. And under such circum- stances difficulty arises. It would be much nicer world for some of us if there were no mortgages or tax payments in it.
 An investigation into the tax col lccting situation would disclose no more than that the collector has been collecting and not playing at it, and that the payees are no keen CT about their speed in reaching for the money than they were in the days beyond recall. If it is going to be the policy Of the city to ease up on the tax collecting system the collector no doubt will know how to carry out the policy. though this may be distrcssingly dispieasing to Mr. Blodgett, who lacks m9atho- tie attitude toward dcIinqitnts. Tax collecting is one Of the worlds oldest trades and there is a wealth of eX-
 pcrienca in the annals of the craft ] New Britain can have almost any 1 kind of experience it wants.

C. OF (. OPPOSITION TO "EARNI RELIEF"

The disagreement between the l United States Chamber of Commerce i and the Federal Farm Board is | easily understandable considering | the influence of the great grain cle- ! vator and milling interests in the l Middle West. These industries, which i are identified with the L, s. C. of C., 1 had no objection 10 the principle ol farm relief" so long as there was no apparent need to believe the re- lief extended would really relieve, But Chairman I.egge Of the Federal Farm Board has given indications that the activities of the board will be a considerable threat to the mid dlemen grain interests; indeed, there is q likelihood that the Farm Board will all but put some of the concerns out Of business That is a horse of another color Strong opposition to the federal farm relief plans has ac
 cordingly developed.
 IL is surprising that the milling, packing and produce men in Minnc- apolis, Chicago, Kansas City and Omaha did not take either Mr. Coolidge or Mir, Hoover at their words when they spoke about help ing the farm cooperative assoCi- ations It was the northwestern | farmers. indeed, who were luke warm about nominating Mr. Hoover. while the principal source Of western ] campaign contributions came from
 the food interests in the cities men,
 toned. Now all they receive for their
 money is actual governmental CO.,
 operation with the o-operativcs. chiefly consisting in the government
 loaning the farmers organizations
 many millions of dollars at 1-2
 per cent intcrest-approNimatcly
 half the interest rate the private
 milling, packing and food interests
 pay for financial assistance from
 private sources.
 For many years complaint has
 been rife throughout the agricul-
 tural regions that the prices the II pt .
 was out of all proportion 10 the
 prices charged the ultimate cOnsum-
 CTS after the products had gone
 through the hands of the food fabrl- eating concerns. For years, too, CO.,
 operative marketing has been spokel of as the only means Of avoiding cX-
 cess charges by middleman. But the l milling and grain interests were no alarmed so long as everything il sounded like mere talk.
 c Formation of the Farmers Nation h al Grain Corporation by the Fedora , Farm Board. however, came as O shock. Its plan is to unite all th V existing grain co-opcratiVes in tn n United States and finance the graf V corporation with cheap money fror 0 the American treasury. It is planne e 10 handle large percentage of neA Y years wheat crop and buy out c i. duplicate existing privately oWne IS elevators and milling facilities. W Julius II. Barnes, one of til ,e largest grain commission men in Il
 Northwest, and enjoying the frlen( ,c ship of President Coolidge, has pr' al tested in vain. The letter of Willia t. D. Butterworth, president ot u K l.. $. c. of C., to Chairman Leg; in of inc Federal Farm Board, was ol e. Of strong protest; but 1t fell up' he Geaf ears. What the Federal Far ti- Board is doing now vastly pleas li- Senator Nyc, who originally doubt q the utility of the farm relief b be passed last May.
