Pays for a Rail Trip
After 31-Year Lapse

Ontario, Cal-(P)-A railroad pas
senger fare from Iowa to California.
81 years overdue, has been paid at
last.
An aged man stepped into ticket
office here recently, and in trem-
bling voice announced that he wished
to make amends for a wrong he per-
petrated against the company early
in 1898.
His was the story of a father with
a large family, who needed the call
to the west. But when final arrange
mentS had been made he lacked fare
for one member of his flock. So he
devised special packing box, which
was sent with the household goods, In
which he made the trip.
The ride must have turned the
boys ambition toward railroad ca
reer." the man beamed, as he paid
the fare, because today he is a con-
ductor."

farm RELIEF Bills
TO POP Up ON BOTH
SIDES OF CONGRESS
Leaders See President and Nc.
Nary Announces He Will
Report Old Measure

washington. March 9.-(R-The
legislative program Of tho coming
special session and the question
whether farm relief legislation should
originate In the house or senate was
placed before President Hoover, to-
day, by leaders of both branches Of
congress.
Chairman McNary, of the senate
agricultural committee, and Chair
man Smell, Of the house rules COM
mittee, called at the white house TO
ascertain MIR. Hoover's views. and It
developed that both house and senate
propose to have q farm bill ready for
consideration when the special ses-
sion convenes, April Is.
Chairman Smell said the proposed
legislative program Of the house Is,
first Of all, farm relief, then the tariff
and later, II measure Is passed by
the senate. congressional reapportion-
ment. He predicted that the house
would dispose Of farm relief within
a week.
Chairman McNary said he expected
his committee also to have farm
bill drawn up by the beginning of the
special session and he predicted. too,
that his branch of congress could dis
pose Of it In week. The senator said
that hearings would be initiated
shortly, with the bill which he intro
duced at the last session of congress
as basis Of discussion.
This measure. which failed of &C.
ton, provided for the establishment
Of large federal revolving fund to
assist cooperative marketing and. in
many respects. was similar to the Nc.
Nary Haugen bill, except that the
equalization fee had been eliminated.
The view of the administration, as
unofficially made known, is that the
house should devote itself. first of all,
to the tariff, since such legislation
must originate there. with the senate
meanwhile considering farm meas
ure.
The purpose Of the plan is to en-
able both branches Of congress to
make the best of their time.
It was made known at the meeting
that Mr.. Hoover's proposed law en-
forcement commission would not be
finally selected for at least q month,
although it was explained that this
was not to be construed as meaning
the president will not approach
prospective members within that time.
It was indicated that the American
Bar association and similar national
organizations might be requested to
make recommendation as to the per-
sonnet Of the group. It's size has not
yet been determined, but it was indi-
Gated that it probably would have
nine members.

Of easier money rates for some time

President Hoover is for adequate preparedness as

upon the soil Of our country. President Hoover avows
that the United states is willing to reduce its naval
strength In proportion to any other. mo matter how

These are his words: I'VE will reduce our naval
strength in proportion to any other. Having said that,
IL only remains for the others to say how low they
win 60. 1t cannot be too low for us"
He spoke in the washington auditorium at Armis-

His voice was carried into the homes Of millions.
As a preventive as well as q limitation OF war. Pres.
Hoover advanced. for the consideration Of the world,
the proposition that ships laden solely with food
should be placed on the same footing with hospital
ships during the war.
He would place a ban by the nations Of the earth
on starvation as q weapon Of the war.
If his plan had been in force when the world war
was on the food ships OF America would have landed
their supplies at the docks Of German seaports rs
we'll as at the docks OF all nations threatened with a
food famine while the soldiers OF the nations were en-
gagged in bloody contest on the field Of battle
He declared that one Of the powerful influences Tor
armament races between nations Is the fear that sea-
borne food supplies will be interrupted and that ne
commended that once this sphere removed nations VAL
have less fear for armament and that the world must
sooner or later recognize this as one OF the under
living causes Of its armed situations. but Tar beyond
this starvation should be rejected among the weapons
OF warfare"
For four centuries Great Britain has declared its
RIGHT backed bv its might to be the mistress OF the

pire to search the ships Of neutral nations, indeed the
ships Of all nations without Observation-Disclosures by
the greatest navy afloat.
There should be freedom Of the seven seas and the
ships Of neutral nations should not be subject to the
four century old search and seizure piracy act OF tne
