VENTURA, Cal, Dec. 9. U.P)-
California agriculture by surmount-
ing the task of reconditioning a
four billion dollar investment" will
procreate finer, saner and more
permanent prosperity than it has
ever known before" Gov. James
Rolph, Jr., told the Farmers and
Fruit Growers annual convention
here last night.
I'VE are starting all over again
here in California and as usual,
agriculture is in the lead" the gov
ernor said. 1--WE cannot review the
progress of the past year, and we
have made progress, without giving
agriculture its place in the van
guard of the procession"
Rolph cited the unification of %
agricultural industies and industry
units in a program of marketing
procedure as basis for optimism.
Already" he said, there has
grown out of that program three
big scale and permanent organiza-
tions of agricultural industry that
have already made a saving of
millions of dollars-millions that
would have been lost had it not
been for such organizations"
The governor credited his admin
istration with restoring harmony
among milk producers in Los An
geles and San Francisco, declaring
that the arbitration boards set up
will save the Los Angeles industry
S4,000,000 a year and already have
saved producers and distributors
in San Francisco 100000.

PARIS, Dec. 9. The French
government has decided definitely
to pay its December Is annuity to
Washington provided parliament
approves, it was indicated by ques-
tions and answers today at the
conclusion of Premier Edouard
Herriot's appearance before the
finance and foreign affairs COM
missions of The chamber of depu-
ties.
The French payment will be ac-
companied by a note containing
two reservations.
The first will ask the United
States to promise a conference for
revision of debts during 1888, TAX
ing into consideration the sacrifices
the French made at Lausanne in
foregoing reparations from Ger
many.
The second will be that the
$19,261 ,432 payable in December
will be counted against whatever
sum a new debt conference fixes
as the definite French debt.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9 W,P)-

in note to the state department

payment were not postponed it

BEVERLY HILLS, Dec. 3.
(SpeciaD awful lot of peo-
pie are confused as to just what
is meant by lame duck con-
gress." It's like where some fell
lows work for you, and their
work wasn't satisfactory and
you let 'em out. But after you
fired em you let 'em stay long
enough so they could burn
your house down.
You know that Ruth Bryan
Owen, the congresswoman who
had always been a prohibition
list and was defeated in the pri-
mary on it, you got to give her
credit. When she saw that the
vote was against it why she
held no revenge but voted with
the repealists. So there you
have a woman with more nerve

ENGLAND AND
FRANCE WILL
PAY IN GOLD
London Papers Disappointed In
United States Reply To British
Note.
FRENCH SEEK CONFERENCE
Both Nations Hoping For Re-
opening Of Entire Debts Ques-
ton During Coming Year.
BY HERBERT MOORE
United Press Staff Correspondent


LONDON, Dec. 9. = Reliable
British quarters predicted today
that Great Britain would make her
sos, $4,000 war debt payment to
the United States on December Is
in gold, and that France would fol-
low the British example of pay
ment.
Chancellor of the Exchequer
Neville Chamberlain said when he
returned from Paris that there had
been no decision regarding pay
ment. Prime Minister Ramsay
Macdonald told Premier Edouard
Herriot in Paris yesterday how
ever, that Britain would meet the
December payment.
London newspapers generally
were disappointed with the Unit
ed States reply to Britain's re-
quest for postponement of the debt
payment. They were uncertain
whether the door had been opened
or shut to ultimate debt revision.
The cabinet, confronted with ev-
idence that British diplomacy had
failed to complete its immediate
objective-poStponement was so
set back it apparently did not real
ize that a greater goal had been
gained, namely. agreement by the
United States to reexamine the en-
tire debts question.
Cabinet To Meet
The cabinet was expected to
meet today to deal with the method
of payment, expected to be in gold,
or part gold and part dollars.
There was the slim possibility that
new note might be drafted to
the United States again appealing
for postponement.
Payment in Gold, British Cab
inets Decision" the headlines said
on the debt story in the London
Times. The newspaper said that
at the Paris conference of Mac
Donald, Chamberlain, Herriot and
Louis Germain-M Martin. French
finance minister, Macdonald an
nounced that Britain had decided
to pay December Is "in gold"
The political correspondent Of
the Times said the real object
of the Anglo-French conference
was the necessity for explaining to
Premier Herriot the reason that
led Britain to make her decision.
There was no suggestion during
the conversations of a common
European front, however, the Times
said
The Paris correspondent OF the
Daily Herald said Macdonald urged
Herriot to pay "along with Bri-
tain"
