APPROVE PETITION
Bingham, Moses and Reed
Would Have Senators Op-
pose Peace Bill

Washington. Jan. l4.-tP)-An oml-
nous deadlock, unyielding to white
house concern. gripped more tightly
the Kellogg anti-war treaty in the
senate TO-DAY threatening both the
act and the cruiser construction bill.
Fortified with round robin petit
ton" bearing "a signatures, the Re-
publican Democratic group demand
ing an Interpretation of the treaty In
connection With American adherence
decided in Sabbath day conference
to hold their ground against efforts
to limit debate.
This decision was reached despite
stubborn opposition to the proposal
for an Interpretation by President
Coolidge who called in Oh Saturday
night Senator Bingham, Republican.
Of Connecticut, one Of the sponsors
Of the petition.
Unconcerned by the round robin
petition Chairman Borah of the COM
mittee. prepared today to renew his
request for limitation of debate on the
treaty.
The "interpretationiSts" have an
nounced that request will not be al
lowed. This means more delay on
vote on ratification but Senator Bor-
all realizes also 1t means more delay
In getting to the cruiser bill in which
he is not SO much interested but
which the "interp1etationists" almost
to q man, are very anxious to get to.
So the treaty advocates were content
to hold against the Interpretation and
let things take their course.
Meanwhile. the president who is
concerned for both ratification of the
treaty and passage of the cruiser bill,
Is doing the worrying. But he is just
as anxious that no manner of reser-
walton be attached to Americas adj
herence to the treaty. He insists that
even report by the foreign relations
committee would amount to a reser-
walton.
Senator Bingham stood his ground
against this contention and argued
just as firmly that under practices of
international law a committee report
interpreting nations position under
q treaty could not be regarded as a
reservation.
The round robin petitioners ask
that the foreign relations committee
draw up a formal report on the trea-
ty embodying the views expressed in
senate debate by Chairman Borah
that Americas right of elf-defense
Is not abrogated or embarrassed by.
the treaty nor is her Monroe doctrine
infringed upon in any way.
Unless that request is allowed. the
petitioners assert their belief that it
will be necessary to adopt resolu-
ton of Interpretation such as has
been proposed by Senators Moses,
Republican, of New Hampshire.
While Senators Bingham, Moses,
and Reed, Democrat, of Missouri, who
are circulating the petition are con-
fident OF getting more than one-third
OF the membership to sign the petit
tion-the necessary votes to defeat
ratification of the treaty-they dis
claim any intention of defeating rat
ification.
Likewise, treaty advocates are smil-
Ing at the petition, confident of votes
to ratify the pact and of the votes to
invoke the clOture rule limiting de-
bate if filibuster develops. They
insist that many of the .,-lcrs of the
petition. whose names have not been
divulged. will not stand in the way
OF ratification Of the treaty.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
CULTIVATION IN 1928
REACHED HIGH PEAK
Liquidation Of Rural Mortgages
Cited as Greatest Area in
History Is Titled

North Dakota and Montana have
more land under cultivation TODAY
than ever before in history. exceed
ing even the figure for the peak
year OF 1919, while the farm land
situation of the two states is greatly
improved, last year having brought
much progress in the liquidation oil
mortgages by farmers, the @. M
Corwin Co. of Minneapolis says in q
statement summing up its 1923 op.
erations.
The company sold 1877 farms, to.
falling $4,000 acres, during 1923, Mr.
Corwin said. Last year brought real
progress in liquidation Of farm lands
acquired under foreclosure as well
as in payment of mortgages.
prices Of small grains last fall
prevented liquidation which other
wise would have occurred and much
more land would have been sold in
recent months had prices equalled
those Of 1927" Mr.. Corwin stated.
Discomfort Is Absent.
Although farmers were disappoint-
ed, there was not the feeling of dis
content that existed in previous
years. The market for northwest
farms is confined largely to local
buyers, such as tenants and owners
of nearby lands.
More Land Cultivated.
Despite all the abandonment that
occurred from 1920 to 1925, there is
more land under cultivation in North
Dakota and Montana today than ut
the high peak f cultivation and resi-
dent ownership in 1919. This has
been brought about by power ma
chinery and the conclusion of farm
ers that, with power equipment, they
can farm more land and thus reduce
production costs.
"The solution of the farm problem
in the northwest, I believe, is larger,
rather than smaller, farms, with
plenty of power equipment. Diver
sification and improved farming
methods are tending toward better
agricultural conditions. Because
there is much distressed land, with
many holders wishing to get out
from under, lands are selling for
less than the intrinsic value, / look
for continued improvement, but cam
not foresee the re-establishment of
the prices Of 1920 for a number of
years to come. For many reasons,
l do not regard it as desirable that
prices should be so high as nine
years ago.
Profits Are Possible.
"On present land values buyers
can make profitable incomes from
operation Of farms. Farmers as a
class are in much better financial
condition than at any time in 10
years, but it will require continued
patience on the part Of investors in
farms, for ultimate liquidation.
There is only one crop of farm and
grazing lands and eventually all the
good agricultural soil will be needed
to feed and clothe our own people in
the United States. SURPRISES worry
us now, but believe the Hoover ad-
ministration will help solve some of
the problems attending the disposal
of them. In 20 or Is years there
will be little cause for worry as to
of crop SURPRISES. I be-
lieve that everyone should have
greater faith in the future Of agri-
culture in the northwest than ever
before"
