FRANCE DEMANDS
 GREATER QUOTA

Budapest, Hungary, Nov. 22.- (UP) France. hitherto a non-ex- porting nation, caused consterna- ton at the international wheat con- ference today by demanding an export quota greater than that of the United States. Jean Chavard of France demanded that France be given a share of the world market with 1885 export quota on the ground that her surplus stock mus. be sold abroad.
 He was understood to have askea Ia quota of 20,000,000 bushels. which is more than the United States is asking.
 His staten ent increased the diffi- culties of dividing quotas among the producing nations, already made difficult by forecasts of in- creased acerage in Europe.

Bitter Against Americans

Early in Berthelot's career. while he was on mission to the Far East, an incident occurred which embittered him against Americans and many of his co1laborators felt in after years his dislike for the United States. He attended dance at the residence of Governor Will liam Howard Taft in the Philip pines and was rebuked for the con- duct of his partner.
 His one visit to the United States was as a member of the French delegation to the Washington naval conference in 1921.

Machado left the ship here to go

Dominican Republic, his most re-

He was leaning heavily on his cane,
clinging tightly to the arm of his
personal physician and former secre-
tary of agriculture, Eugenio Molinet.
All the 18 days of the passage on
the little ship he was seasick, Ma
chado said. He was seriously ill in
the Dominican Republic, spending a
j, month in bed.
Even here precautions were taken
to protect the former President
against the assassination he must have
feared ever since that day in August,

him and he fled Cuba by airplane

100000 Acres to Be Used.
Contracts already have been Sc
cured, Darling said, for more than
100000 acres to be used in the con-
servation program. He expressed the
hope this acreage will be more than
doubled before the program is COM
pleted. A considerable portion of the
ground is in the Northern plains States
and includes large areas formerly oc-
cupied as breeding grounds by sew
eral species most favored by hunters
In that region the survey plans to
restore at least 100000 acres of water
and marsh areas with view to build
ing up the water fowl population of
this formerly great natural breeding
ground from which, Darling said. the
birds. formerly migrated to almost
every part of the country. Drought
during the past Summer, however,
caused the area to dry up. And, it
was indicated by Darling, the survey
now plans to undo the harm done.

The average size of the refugees
will be in excess of 10000 acres. AS
the areas are acquired they will be
developed by the construction of dikes,
bitches and by others means to i'm
pound or stabilize water and improve
environment conditions.
All efforts of the survey will be
seriously hampered, however. it is
pointed out. unless hunters strictly
observe the game laws. He said funds
from the migratory bird hunting
stamp issue have enabled the survey
to more than double its field enforce
ment personnel and to inaugurate a
regional supervision that will help

men who run the long marathon,
seems natural enough. The man in
the street has never peeped behind
the scenes. He does not realize the
long and arduous program Of train
ing a runner must go through. So
the whole idea Of running 26 miles
when he thinks it a hardship to
walk a mile, seems crazy to him.
We all know that the marathon
runner is not richly endowed with
this worlds goods. However, we do
know that he is an honest, hard
working and upright citizen, with
a wholesome mind and good COM
mon sense who asks and receives
no favors. This is good backbone
material for any country.
That men like Clarence DeMar,
Bill Kennedy and Mike Lynch are
a credit to the game only tends to
enhance the quality of the other
men who like this sport so much
that they come back year after
year when men in other sports
have long since faded. They are
always ready to take another crack
at the "old marathon" So I
think in this love of sport and self
sacrifice lies the answer to why
