ENDFORECL0SURES
Opposition to Mortgage Ac'

BY the Associated Press.

DES MONIES, Iowa. January 25.-
An agreement evolved by an Iowa bar
association brought virtual cessation of
farm mortgage Foreclosures in one
county yesterday as this problem con-
tinued to occupy attention over a wide
MidWeStern territory.
At Algona. Iowa, where the bar as
sociation called upon its members to
arrange, if possible. amicable settle
ment between farmers and mortgage
holders, only two DEGREES were asked
in District Court out of 100 foreclosure
cases called during the day. In one
Of the two the decree was entered with
the consent of both parties. The bar
associations plan provided also that
no deficiency judgments be taken or
receivers appointed until after the as
Sociation had acted.
Ask for Moratorium.
Preparations were made by a Legis-
lative Committee of the Illinois Tax
payers Association to ask Gov. Henry
Horner to issue proclamation for a
moratorium on farm mortgage fore
closures during the present emergency
and until the Legislature can act.
In Minnesota the Legislature will be
asked to declare a tWo-year moratorium
on farm debts owed the State John
Meager, president of a Stearns County
farm group, said
Two hundred farmers gathered at
GlenWood, Iowa, in anticipation that
deficiency Judgment might be taken
on the 260-acre farm of Max Leu OF
Malvern. No objections were made,
however when the insurance company
which held mortgage of s2O,lOO bid
the full amount of the loan.
Prosecutions Planned.

PR0C[A|MS DEATH
FOR ALL GRAFTERS
Chen Chi.Tang Makes Cor.
ruption More Serious Crime
Than Murder.

CANTON (SpeciaD Death for cor
ruption in governmental circles is the
penalty threatened against any official
in the Kwantung provincial govern
ment, according to a recent decree pro-
mulgated here.
Gen. Chen Chi-tang, chairman Of the
Kwangtung government, appears to be
determined to inaugurate a new mo-
rality among his colleagues, and is Sc
lecting the most drastic measures to
enforce it.
Recently Gen. Chen enunciated a
set Of rigid ethics for government Of
ficials in which all vices, negligence OF
duty, nepotism, ETC., are considered Sc
rious offenses. He ranks official thiev-
cry as a more heinous ohense than
crimes committed by private citizens.
Under him, the southwestern Kuo-
mintang has decided that the accept
ance of bribes, participation in Snug
CLING narcotics and other articles on
which there is a government embargo,
are to be regarded as crimes warrant
ing capital punishment.
More Serious Than Murder.
Like the U. S. S. r., Gen. Chen be-
lleves crimes perpetrated with the in
tention of robbing the state for personal
gain should be regarded as immensely
more serious than crimes committed by
individuals for revenge, out of jealousy
and other motives. He would rank even
murder as a less grievous offenSe than
embezzlement of state funds.
Nepotism, squeeze" or petty embez-
element. acceptance of bribes in the
form Of gifts, has long been considered
the prerogative of officials. An old ira
dition Of the Manchu imperial govern
mental system, it has died hard in
modern republican" China. Gen.
Chen's drastic indictments of it as the
core of our national corruption" do
not promise to be popular among Kuo-
mintang officials.

ACTION PRESSED
FOR D. c. AIRPORT
Federal and Civic Leaders
Stress Emergency at
House Hearing.

Emergency legislation to provide for
continuation of the District air termi-
nal, now privately operated at Wash
ington-H Hoover Airport, was urged by
representatives of the Federal Govern
ment and District civic organizations
Eher hearings on the airport situation
were resumed today by the House Com
mittee on Public Buildings and Grounds
All witnesses appearing before the
committee stressed the emergency char
acter of the legislation declaring con-
greSSonal action necessary at once, not
only to insure continuation of the air
terminal, but also to protect the lives
OF thousands of air travellers visiting the
Capital.
The Commerce Department "feels
very strongly that it is of great i'm
portance that something be done to i'm
prove conditions at the airport" A. Pen
oleton Taliaferro, jr., chief of the air.
port inspection of the department S
aeronautic branch, said today.
Alarmed by Conditions.
'We have been considerably alarmed
at the conditions at Washington Hoover
Airport" Mr.. Taliaferro said. 1t is
absolutely essential that Military road
now dividing .he airport, be closed SO
that the landing area may be enlarged.
If this read could be closed and the
grounds moved over it We would con-
slider that safety is improved at least
100 per cent"
Mr.. Taliaferro said the department is
Heartily in favor of the Government
leasing the airport property for at least
fnvV, hyr 10 n.
ment. He advocated that the operation
be placed in the hands Of the Office OF
Public Buildings and Public Parks.
Col u S. Grant, Sd, director OF pub
lie buildings and public parks, declared
that apparently private operation of the
airport cannot be continued much
longer in the face of the existing oper-
ating deficit, and that Congress must
act if the existing air transportation is
to be preserved.
Urged by Littlepage.
Enactment of airport legislation was
characterized as one of the most i'm
portant projects for the District now
pending in Congress by Thomas P. Lit
tlepage, president of the Washington
Chamber of Commerce.
Mr.. Littlepage said the Inaugural
committee, on which he serves, has had
hundreds of requests from all parts Of
the country as to the condition of the
local airport from people who expect
to fly here March 4. He advocated i'm
mediate action as an emergency ep-
pedient, leaving a permanent decision
for the next Congress.
The Washington Board of Trade also
requested passage of the bill through
Clarence A. Miller chairman of its Air
port Subcommittee The hearings will
be resumed in a few days.
