Seminole Indians Cling
to Ancient Folk Songs

Westinghouse new kind of folk
song has been recorded for posterity
by Miss Frances Densmore, Smith
sonian institution ethnologist, who
recently returned to Washington with
more than 200 monograph records of
songs of the Seminole Indians of the
Florida Everglades.
Miss Densmore was told by the re-
ticent Indian peoples that the Semi
noles had no songs. After a four
month stay among them, however,
she discovered and recorded much of
an unique native music.
The Seminole songs, she found, are
used only at two big annual feasts-
the corn dance In the summer and
the ceremony preceding the hunting
season in the fall Music also is
used in treatment of the sick.

used to dot the suburban countryside

Experts who participated in the

The report, prepared by DR.. Leices-

is described as an analysis of the role
of architecture in the present art con-
seriousness of the social body.
The waning interest of the wealthy
in large private houses is explained
by Doctor Holland as largely due
to an increase in mobility" and fur
ther to the fact that the wealthy, in
stead of concentrating on single es-
Establishment, are now in the habit of
maintaining two or more residences
in different parts of the country or
even abroad.

of mobility will extend constantly

to lessened interest in the personal

choose her husband from the

twenty-eight and thirty-three, the
usual marrying period for men.
IF she waits until after twen-

man of her own age or few

they are no longer fit to do manual labor.
 Now then, the question before us is, what is the remedy to apply and how quickly can a stricken na- ton be lifted out of the chaos and morass in which 1t finds itself? In place of the trade-destroying Haw- ley Shoot tariff which has brought about hostile reprisals from our best foreign customers, the con- gress should substitute q trade-pro- noting tariff policy, based on the principle of reciprocity. Reciprocal arrangements will produce within very short tiUe, foreign markets for our great mass of goods now stagnant in factories and ware houses, and at the same time open the door to foreign imports, and thus give debtor nations an oppor- tunity to honor their obligations in- stead of continuing the present confidence-shattering drift toward repudiation and default.

I would not for moment consider the sup porting of any tariff law that would III any way HOOd our COuHtTy WitH articles manufa ctured abroad to be sold to the detriment of similar do- mestic articles. Europe owes us ap- proximately twenty billions of dol lars, and I believe we should make every effort to collect these obliga- tions. I am distinctly opposed to the cancellation of the foreign debt.

R. E. (. LOAN MAY
 HELP FARMERS TO SELL WHEAT
Farm Board Confers With K. F. C. on Scheme to Peddle l5,00O,OOO Bushels in China

Washington, Sept 26-- (UP)- Possibility of a reconstruction fi- nance corporation loan which would take 15,O00,000 bushels of wheat off the domestic market, increased toCay, following a White House conference between Presi- dent Hoover and a group of gov- ernment officials.
 Members of the Federal Farm board and the Reconstruction Fi- nance corporation conferred last night with the president, and Secretary of Agriculture Hyde. They discussed the proposal of northwestern farmers for an $8.- 900, 900 loan to aid in disposing in China of 15,000,000 bushels of surplus wheat.
 No final decision was reached, 1t was reported. but the plan un- der discussion was for handling the proposed transaction through the e<grain stabilization corporation, farm board agency. The farm board, it was pointed out however was consulted primarily because it handled shipment of similar amount to China year ago.
 The president, it was under stood, took the initiative in calling the conference, of which an ad- vance notice had been given.
 Under the proposed financing scheme, the stablization corpora ton would work with northwest cooperative groups in arranging details of the shipments. The plan 1t was said, involves no farm board controlled wheat. and the financial aid, if rendered, would be strictly to the private farm groups in the northwest.
 Should the loan be made, and the huge amount of wheat be shipped to China, government of- ficials consider that wheat far mers generally would be benefit ted by removal of 15.000,000 bush- els from the domestic market.
 Attendil.g the conference were c. E. Denman and Charles s. Wilson of the farm boald and the following director of the R. F. C., chairman At!ee Pomerene, Jesse Jones, Garner Cowles, Wilson Me- Carthy and Harvey c. Couch.
