FARM PROBLEMS PLACED BEFORE HERBERT HOOVER
Two Heads of Agricultural Organizations Have
 Conferences

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-Com- plexities of the farm problem were brought to the attention of Herbert Hoover yesterday in con ference with Louis J. Taber, Master of the National Grange and Cleveland Newton, General Counsel for the Mississippi As sociation.
 Taber told Hoover his organi- zation favored an increase of the agricultural tariff to extend the farmer the same protection as industrialists enjoy He said the average customs duties in indus try are AZ per cent while only 22 per cent are shown for farm products.
 Taber said afterwards that Hoover would make a. "heoric ef- fort" p solve the farm problem.
 Cleveland Newton presented to Hoover the views of his organi- zation which is interested in the development of the Middle West and relief of agriculture by pro- viding cheap transportation on the Mississippi.
 Hoover received a long list of visitors yesterday afternoon.

motor trucks in an effort to has ten delivery and to fill stock rooms scraped nearly bare.
 The total of new refined copper withdrawn on domestic account during 1928 is estimated by the United States bureau of mines at 1,5SS,000,000 pounds, an increase Of 12 per cent over the 1927 with drawals of 1.423 100000 pounds and the greatest in history with the one exception of 1918, a war year.
 A decrease of nearly 100000, 900 pounds in refined and blister stock at the beginning of 1929 bespeaks the failure of production to over come the handicap of three months required to transform ore Into the refined product although shelter pfoduciion increased 70 per cent production of new refined copper gained 6 per cent and the output of secondary copper in 1928 was . per cent above that of 1927.

NEW THOUGHT IS EXPRESSED
 BY PRESIDENT
Discusses Alliance of Wash ington $ Time and of
 Presen. Period

ASHIN TON, Feb. 23.-- President Coolidge in his Wash ington Birthday address last night, declared that he thought in Washington day that Ian al- liance meant banding together of two or more nations for of- fensive and defensive purposes against certain other nations, either expressed or implied"
 The President said: ''it was purely an artificial creation and 1t had no reference to association of practically all nations in an attempt to recognize their com mon interests and discharge their common obligations.
 While we should at all times defend our own independence and maintain our own sovereignty, we should not forget nations, as we'll as all individuals, have natural and inalienable rights of life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness, in the words of Jefferson, and while we should fail disgracefully in our mission in the world if we did not pro- tect those rights fer ourselves, we shall also fail if we do not respect them in others"

INVESTMENT HOUSES

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-GradIal growth of confidence in the prom ise of the average man to pay his debts. promoted through sale of motor cars, radio sets, clothing and other articles on the install ment plan. is believed to be large ly responsible for the entrance of commercial bank and Wall Street investment houses into the small loan field.
 Generally the man of moderate means appears to be playing a larger part in Wall street than ever before, not only through his participation in small way in the ftock market, but also because of the attention Wall street has been paying to financing his ac- tiyities. A thousand small accounts evidently have been found to make a sizeabIe total worthy of con

PARIS, Feb. 23.-The sub-com- mittee of the Preparations Com mission is back at the task of trying to find method of pro- cedure satisfactory to the full committee. The program pre- sented was not accepted. It sug- gested the possibility of substitut- ing transfers for annuity pay ments.
 There is a distinct feeling manifested that unless this fresh attempt to establish procedure is successful, the Commission work will probably be prolonged be- yond the five weeks originally agreed upon as the term neces- sary for solution of the whole problem of reparations.

PRICES AND OUTPUT
 OF COPPER IRE HIGH

NEW YORK, Feb. 23-These are boom days for red metal. and back of the prevailing r cents a pound price for copper is a story of the failure of the 1928 record peace time production to keep up with the heaviest domestic peace-time withdrawals in history. A decline in imports of the refined product and wide gain in exports are combined with depletion of near ly 100.000.0O0 pounds in refined and blister stocks as contributing factors.
 Steady advance of copper stocks traded on the country's exchanges give evidence of the beneficial ef- fect npcn earnings of the rise in the nonShly average price of cop per during 1928 from 13.96 cents a pound in January to 15.9 cents in December. Today the selling price is around F cents, with consum- CTS moving their own purchases in

 It is estimated that more than $250, 0,C00,000 capital will be put out in small loans during the cur rent year. Clarence Hodson & Company, fiscal agents for corpor- ations active in this field, say that more than 200 new small loan companies have been organized in the past year, the total number in creasing from 2,39S in 1927 to 2,636 at present.
 The small loan companies func- tion along different lines. some re- quiring collateral and others en- dorsing the borrowers notes.

LONDON, Feb. 23. Frigid weather settled over Central and Southwestern Europe today with as firm a grasp as if had never given temporary respite earlier in the week.
 From the Scandinavians to the southeastern tip of the Balkans, the story was one of frozen wat erways, fuel-less towns and cities and people without food and ex- periencing dire sufferings.
 Hungary appeared the hardest hit. The inhabitants of Buda- pest are said to be expecting ex- treme privations due to the cold, and ice in the Danube which is nine feet thick.
 All hope of fruit crops is gone.
 It is estimated that 50 per cent of the nations honey bees which provide one of the chief indus tries, have perished.

sS0o,O0O FUND AVAILABLE FOR ALASKA ROADS
Congress Appropriates that Sum for ARC Pro-
 grame Not Decided

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-Tht appropriation for roads and trails in Alaska for the next fiscal year nas been fixed at $S00,000 by action of the conferees of the House and Senate on the Army approprition bill.
 The House passed a half mil lien dollar appropriation and the Senate increased this to one mil lion dollars, on plea Of Senator Wesley l.. Jones of Washington then the conferees compromised.
 The program of the Alaska Road Commission for the next fis- cal year will be made up on the basis of the $S00,O00 appropria- tion as announced in the above dispatch, it was said today by Major Malcolm Elliott, President It will be sometime before the complete details of the years work are approved and mapped out.
 A conference of district super intendents has been called to open here on March 12, at which time the program will be finally adopted Recommendation of the field men will be considered and the program cut to fit the money available for work.
 Major Elliott announced, how ever that 1t had been definitely determined to do preliminary work on an extension to the Gull kana-Chistochena Nabesna route which is planned to carry that road into the Nabesna mining district From all information had by the Commission, he said, this would open up and aid in the development of very prom ising region.
 This route, he added, will form a link in an international high odJ iloii thC hltCQ DLdtto dSi ioos Canada into Interior Alaska, if such a road is ever constructed. It would afford automobile trans portation from all parts of the United States to the interior of this Territory. coming through Vancouver and Hazelton, B. O., and Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, thence up the White River Val icy. It is estimated that not more than 900 miles of such a route would have to be new con- struetion, mainly in Yukon Ter ritory and Alaska. There is all ready an automobile road from Vancouver to Hazelton, B. c.
 Other projects to be considered on the program, but which def mite decision cannot now be made are. Illiamna Bay-Laks road, extension to the Ruby Long-Poorman road, and numer- ous other smaller jobs. All of these will be discussed at the general conference here next month.
