 The new minister was formerly a strong supporter of the radical republican party headed by Alejan- dro Lerroux, now minister of state. However, two years ago the party divided and a new faction called republican action" was founded on the belief that Lerroux was too old to head a vigorous movement. Gi- ral joined the new faction. Its present head is Manuel Azana, provisional president of Spain.

Seeks to 'Hitch Up''
 Farm Groups for Relief Pull

situation is that one group is per- fectly willing to see the other suc- ceed if 1t assured of the same measure of success at the same time
 Farm Ranks Easily Split
 Both the farm bureau and the grange are committed to the theory that surplus removal means getting an excess commodity out of the country It is on the method of doing it that they disagree.
 Because of this lack of common policy it has been comparatively easy to split the ranks of agricul- ture and defeat the wishes of the respective wings one at a time.
 The agricultural marketing act which both seek to amend, each in it's own way, was enacted as sub stitute measure when years of leg- islation brought nothing more than veto for the equalization fee and only Senate approval of the deben- ture.
 The bureau and the grange stood aside for it to pass rather than lose farm relief legislation alto- gether.
 Now each would equip the farm board with it's own pet plan in lien of the emergency stabilization clause and instruct the board to invoke it whenever the members found the necessity.
 Grange spokesmen say McNary may find it easy to hitch a team to both the debenture and the fee but equally difficult to tighten the traces on just one load.

s 100000 FILL . ON WlLLOuCHBY
 IS PROJECTED
Movement Is Launched by Chamber to Fill in Tide
 flats in That Area

A movement leading to the fill ing of the flats along Willoughby Avenue from Femmer's Dock ap- proach to Gold Creek was launched today by the Chamber of Commerce, following tentative statement of estimated costs made by Dr. w. w. Council, President.
 He said the project could be completed for a cost of $l00000 and that the necessary expendi- lures could be recovered by the sale of real property created by the fill The tentative plans for the work and cost estimates were worked out with L. H. Metzgar, General Superintendent of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Com pany.
 Would Require Seawan
 The plan suggested by Dr. Coun- cil would entail the construction of a rockwall bordering deep water and extending from Femmer's dock to Gold Creek. Tailings from the Alaska Juneau mill would be turn ed into the area and fill from the retaining wall to high ground back of the beach.
 The improvement would have to be undertaken by the municipality if at all. pr. Council said the fill would make about 100 lots for building purposes These could be sold, at the rate for which other realty is being transferred, for enough money to cover the entire cost of the improvement. In addi- tion there would be enough public ly owned ground left to provide for playgrounds, ball park, etc.
 Save Street Funds
 The City is now expending ap- proximately $70oOl per year for maintenance and repairs of Will loughby Avenue. If a permanent improvement were made, such as suggested, this sum would be saved to the city each year.
 MT. Mtezgar, declared Dr. Coun- cil, is satisfied that the plan is entirely feasible and practicable. The matter was referred to the Chambers Civic Improvement com mittee for study and recommends tion at an early meeting
 Kotzebue Has Future
 Kotzebue's history is not all in the past, the Chamber was, told by Dr. R. E. Smith, physician in charge of the Office of Indian Affairs hospital in that far north ern community, who was guest of the Chamber today. He is en- route to his headquarters there after atrip to the states for med- ical attention.
 The Kotzebue Sound district :, history dates from about 1840, he said. It has produced considerable gold and furs in great abundance. It still has many gold bearing areas capable of being developed, and some substantial developments are now under way. Trappers con- tinue to operate successfully in the region.

LONDON, Nov. 10.-The bombing of guns and shifting of soldiery in Manchuria gave some promise of two new battles at the Nonni River Bridgehead, according to advices received here today from that Oriental front, although Tokyo re- ported the situation quiet but ap- prehensive."
 Reports received by two London newspapers said Japan has de- manded the surrender of Tsitsihar by Gen. Nah Chanshan.
 Deny War Declared
 Unofficial advices received here from Chinese quarters deny that war has been declared against Jap- an, pointing out that Gen. Nah Chanshan has no authority to take such action, as reported yesterday, and that any way no authority in China could declare war until after November 16, the date the League of Nations has set for the with drawal of Japanese troops from Manchuria.
 International Army
 Official dispatches received here state China has requested the League of Nations to send an in- ternational army of 4,000 men to police the railway in Manchuria pending settlement of the present trouble.
 Japan has sent reply to Wash- ington to Secretary of State Stim- sons "aide memoire" but 1t is stated he did not ask publication of the documentary interchange.
 Harbin dispatches state the Jap- anese have withdrawn a few miles south of the Nonni River bridge but are assimiliating reinforce ments and a new attack on Gen. Nah Chanshan's army is expected.

Woman Originated Red Cross Christmas Seal

The Red Cross Christmas seal was
introduced in the year 1907 by Miss
Emily Bissell, secretary Of the Della
ware Red Cross at Wilmington. But
Jacob A. Riis, the social reformer and
author, was responsible for it's adop-
ton
An article by Mr.. Riis in the Out
look in 1907 on Christmas stamps and
seals and how they had been sold in
Denmark for the support of a chill
dren's hospital, gave Miss Bissell her
idea. She accordingly appeared before
the central committee with a stamp
bearing a red cross and the words

Year." which that chapter desired to
sell for the benefit of antituberculosis
work. Her suggestion was adopted.

Praise for Secretary Baker.
My next call was upon the secretary
of war, Mr.. Newton D. Baker. 1t was
a much younger and considerably
smaller man who greeted me than ]
had expected. He actually looked d.
minutive as he set behind his desk,
doubled up in rather large office
chair, but when he spoke my impress
sion changed Immediately. We talked
of my recent experience in Mexico and
of conditions on the border, which,
fortunately, were quieter than they
had been for several years.
Mr.. Baker referred to my appoint
ment and said that he had given the
subject very careful thought and had
made the choice solely upon my rec
ord. l expressed my deep apprecia-
ton Of the honor, mentioned the re-
sponsibility of the position and said
that hoped he would have no reason
to regret his action.
left Mr.. Bakers Office with a dis
tinctly favorable impression of the
man upon whom, as head of the War
department, would rest the burden of
preparing for a great war to which
the wholly unready nation was now
committed
Still proceeding under the assump-
ton that l was to command only
division in France, my feelings may
well be imagined when a few days
later, the secretary of war called me
in to say that it had been decided by
the President to send me abroad as
commander in chief, and that l should
select my staff accordingly and prepare
to sail as soon as possible.
The thought of the responsibilities
that this high position carried de-
pressed me for the moment. Here in
placed in command of a theoretical
army which had yet to be constituted,
equipped, trained and sent abroad.
Still, there was no doubt in my mind
then or at any other time of my abil-
ity to do the job, provided the gov
eminent would furnish men, equip
ment and supplies.
Hartford Chief of Staff.
Obviously it was advisable to choose
my staff as soon as practicable. After
studying the records of several officers
of my acquaintance and of others who
were recommended for the position,
chose Maj. James G. Harbord. His
efficiency in every grade from the day
of his enlistment as a private in the
army in January, 1889. was not only

Ontario Farmer Claims
to Own Oldest Reaper

Mr.. William Dunn of Hilton Beach,
Ontario, has a reaper he thinks about
forty years old. When he dropped in
to the office of the Sault Ste. Marie
Star recently he told about it, and
was as proud of the machine as a
man could be. Mr. Dunn still has the
original paint on his reaper. and a
repair bill for the machine of less
than 81 for the whole of the time he
has owned it. He never leaves the
reaper out in the weather, and he
believes in constant oiling.
An interesting feature of the story
is that it was secondhand ma
chine, Mr.. Dunn buying it in 1908
from a farmer who had used it eight
or ten years. Mr.. Dunn has used it on
his farm since 1908, besides cutting
some for his neighbors. and in all
that time has needed only a new
tooth for the reaper, he having
broken one by forgetting to insert
the pin which held the tooth.
''It is all intact and in good work
ing order, and if it had new knife
it would be as good as new," said
Mr.. Dunn, who thinks there is not
another reaper in Canada that has
such record, land probably not in
the world."-Sault Ste. Marie Star.
