TARDIEU ABANDONS
BUDGET ATTEMPTS
Bill to Postpone Opening of Fiscal
Year to April Is Introduced
in Chamber.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, December 1.-THE Tardieu
government, abandoning its attempt to
put the budget through Parliament be-
fore December 81 yesterday introduced
into the chamber bill postponing the
opening of the official fiscal year from
January until April /.
This creates a precedent for which
French government finance officials
have been working since 1910, and by
establishing it the conservative Tardieu
government has made one of the most
radical changes in French fiscal policy
in a century.

BALDWIN DENIES
IRWIN STATEMENT
Conservative Leader De-
C|ares He Has Not Espoused
Indian Dominion Cause.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press,
LONDON, November while the
Labor ministry cheered Stanley Bald
win, Conservative leader and former
premier, rose in his own defense today
IN Parliament to deny published asser-
! tons he had fathered expressions OF
Viceroy Irwin OF India regarding gov
eminent views on eventual dominion
status for India.
/ An article in the Daily Mail
svehemently had attacked the Con-
sentative leader and alleged he was re-
/. sponsible for the viceroy's action in
Affirming in published statement of
British purpose OF eventual attainment
of dominion status.
Disruption Is Seen.
. The action was described as one
which the Conservatives firmly believe
means the end of British rule in India
and will lead to disruption of the
empire"
Asking the indulgence of the House
to- make an observation, the former pre-
mier said:
AN article has been brought to nv
notice which appeared in today's Daily
Mail. 1t is sufficient for me at the
moment to say that every statement of
fact and every implication of fact con-
tanned in that article is untrue and in
my opinion gravely injurious to public
interest, not only in this country but
throughout the empire"
He added ne would take an early
occasion to make more complete state
ment on the matter.

for India. previously in answering a
question by David Lloyd George, Lib
eral leader, had stated the Simon COM

passage in the viceroy's statement re-
lating to the constitutional status of
India in the empire.
Intended to Set Out Goal.
This passage, the India secretary said
was intended to set out the goal of
British policy as stated in the declara-
ton of August, 1917. In view of doubts
which have been expressed both in
Great Britain and India regarding in
depreciation to be placed upon the in
tentionS Of the British government in
enacting the statute of 1919, the viceroy
was authorized on behalf of his maj
esty's government to state clearly that
in their judgment it was implicit in the
declaration of 1917 that the natural is
sue Of midas constitutional progress is
the attainment Of dominion status"
Benn explained that questions Of
policy Involving changes either in sub
stance or in time" could not be con-
sidered until the reports of the Simon
commission and the India central COM
mission were submitted. Then the gov
eminent must consider these matters in
consultation with the Indian govern
ment, in the light of available material
and after the meeting Of the conference
which it Is intended to summon.

CUBA WOULD CUT
SUGAR PLANTING
Campaign Is Launched to
Do Away With One
Crop Farming.
Ay the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
HAVANA, November 1.-The Cuban
government, realizing that its future
lies not in the concentrated growing OF
sugar and tobacco, but in diversified
farming, has commissioned Gen. Eu-
genio Molinet. secretary of agriculture,
to start an extensive campaign OF edu-
cation.
Secretary Molinet said that the main
object OF the campaign would be to per-
suade Cuban farmers that they must
give their attention to diversified farm
ing under modern methods in order to
emerge from their present critical sit
uation and in order to place Cuba on
a closer self-sustaining basis.
Patience to BE Necessary.
It is we'll understood by the griZzled
war veteran that 1t Is going to be a
labor of patience to convince the old
time planter that cane cultivation alone
is not profitable. Molinet said, with a
wry smile, that Cuba has too long been
a one product nation and that no bene-
fits will be derived until the Cuban
planter is weaned from his fallacious
belief that sugar is paramount and that
Cuba rules the world market
Cuba has been a one-crop country
for nearly century and must educate
her people out of situation that has
become a Veritable tradition. Yet
within few years she hopes to have
the Cuban planter lay aside cane plant
ing, substituting tractors for oxen
hauled plows and sow by machine in
stead of by hand. 1t is a problem and
the government well knows it. Secre-
tary Molinet expressed it when he said:
Clings to Tradition.
CUBA holds fast to its traditions OF
sugar cane planting and it will take
effort and strong arguments to get her
on the right track to prosperity
The agricultural department has al
ready inaugurated campaign for the
dissemination of farm news, weather
reports. planting and harvesting ad-
vices. Weekly radio lectures are gwen
on farming and specialists have been
sent into all provinces to aid farmers.
A scientific fight is in motion against
parasites, bacteria and fungi attacking
fruits and vegetables, Agricultural
schools have been established at i'm
portant farm centers.
A weapon for the government is
the state Of canefield workers. They
now earn only about IS cents day and
Col Jose Miguel Tarafa, sugar mag
nate, said that the field hands cannot
earn even a bare living at this rate.
He said that the small wages we're a
direct result Of the low price OF sugar
and the uncertainty prevailing in the
market because of proposed increases
in the United States tariff.

Prescription He Wrote
in 1892 is the Worlds

When DR.. Caldwell started to
practice medicine, back in 1875,
the needs for a laxative were
not as great as they are today.
People lived normal, quiet lives.
ate plain, wholesome food, and
got plenty of fresh air and sun
shine. But even tn at early
there were drastic physics and
purgeS for the relief Of conStipa-
ton which DR.. Caldwell did not
believe were good for human
beings to put into their system.
So he. wrote a prescription for a
laxative to be used by his
patients.
The prescription for con-
Stipation that he used early in
his practice, and which he put in
drug stores in 1892 under the
name of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
PepSin, is a liquid vegetable
remedy, intended for women,
children and elderly people, and
they need Just such a mild, safe,
gentle bowel Stimulant as Syrup
PepSin.
Under successful management
this prescription has proven its
worth and Is now the largest
selling liquid laxative in the
world. The fact that millions of
bottles are used a year proves
that 1T has won the confidence
OF people who needed it to get
relief from headaches, bilious
ness, f1atulency, indigestion, loss
Of appetite and sleep, bad breath,
