SPEAKER CITES DANGER SPOTS
WHICH THREATEN WORLD PEACE

In a talk given on danger spots
in the world today Syud Hossain
lecturer on international problems,
at todays Ell Centro Chamber of
Commerce luncheon, blamed the
conditions of unrest which charac-
terize the world on the treaty of
Versailles. This is a paradoXical age
the speaker stated, for, while there
Is almost universal desire for peace
among the masses of every country,
simultaneously there is manifest in
every nature war rumors and war
psychology because those who are
running the governments are not
| truly representing their constitu-
entS. The treaty of Versailles" he
/ stated, never brought peace. 1t was
a military peace imposed in terms
of the psychology of militarists." "
Hitler, HoSSain stated, has capi-
taliZed the sense of hatred and hu-
initiation which has existed in Ger
many as a result of this treaty un-
til he controls IS 100000 people, and

has unrest because the terms CT the
treaty of Versailles were not car
ried out in the far east.
The speaker explained condi-
tions in Japan and China which
have led to the present strife and
touched on conditions in Russia.
Russia, he stated, is TOO involved in
its gigantic problem of internal re-
construction to be interested in war
at the present time, but if Russia
and Japan should become involved
in war he stated it would also in
volve other nations, and particular
ly the United States.
Much of the address was given
over to conditions in India today,
and Hossain stated that disarma-
| ment conferences have all been
failures and would be as long as ma
tionS take the attitude which Great
Britain has to curtail its arma-
mentS while holding India by its
naval and military strength.

ONE MANS LIFE
Baldwin, N. D..

aug. D, 1883.
Editor Tribune:
This here evacuation plan advocated
BY DR.. Elwood Mead I may not en-
tirely understand. Instead would
suggest that all rulers Of our earth
would prohibit the broadcasting of
radio waves, and go back to the older
style farming.
This writer never wanted to make
public his life but when our North
Dakota, dncluding Baldwin, is to be
evacuated as farming territory it
concerns me and I am asking the
editor to favor me with little space,
so the officials at Washington, D. c.,
may consider 1t.
My father died in Germany when
was eight years old. Mother, my
one sister and I emigrated to the U.
8. when was II years old. We came
to Bismarck, N. D., on the 3Oth day
OF April. 1891. Mother had a little
money left after she had paid the
fare for the three Of us, but it would
not 60 very far, so we all had to work
out. My first job was herding horses
on the Clarence Price place s miles
east Of Bismarck at $500 a month for
months. Next year I herded cattle
at Wogansport, 20 miles north of
Bismarck, along the river at $1,000
per month for 6 months, and from the
age OF IA to 10, became a general
farm hand and the highest wages I
received was $2N year on a farm
near Glencoe, N. D., Ton the Burleigh
county south line).
When was 10 years old I started
up farming Q89O here on my moth
ers homestead (Which I now own

ing out from the age Of IL to IL. This
was my start. Well, when I was 81
years old received 500 inheritance
from my fathers estate. Today I
own $50 acres Of land, home and
have a family with children. am
sure that I could find no better To-
cation on this world than / own.
Neither a more productive farm than
| have. I paid as high as 100000
Tor one quarter Of land, and my land
IS no better than that of my neigh
bors.
Just to show you what can be done
near Baldwin. in 1928 had a so acre
field OF summer blowing in with mar
quis wheat and It averaged 80 bu. No. l
nard wheat per acre. It is true that
this IS the driest year I ever saw in
my life, and even at that harvested
s. acres Of wheat with q Deering
binder.
I farm with horses and save the
Straw. All own made by diversified
farming and I am sure I could not
have done any better anywhere else
I thank you.

CUT THISYLES FOR

AGENT IN WARNING
Putnam Predicts General Food
Shortage With Hay Prices
Higher In Fall

With the price Of hay and feed
steadily climbing and the continued
drouth making imr ossible even a
reasonable hay harvest, County Agent
Henry o. Putnam Tuesday implored
Burleigh county farmers to cut every
bit of hay they can find, including
Russian thistles.
"The thistles make q fair feed
II cut and stacked Immediately" the
county agent was quoted as saying,
but they must not be left on the
ground to cure for in the extreme
heat they lose much Of their palat-
ability and become unsuitable for the
stock.
In order to prepare the thisles
for feed 1t is often advisable to spread
salt In the stacks and cover, If pos
sible, with other hay that Is not so
easily spoiled by the sum-" he said.
I'VE are facing q general hay and
feed shortage in this winter" Putnam
continued. Everything that is worth
feeding must be saved. Already it is
practically impossible to ship hay into
the county and the situation will be
much worse by fall"
Alfalfa hay. which is now selling
for $50 a ton, will g. even higher by
the end Of the summer. Putnam
warned In urging farmers to take adj
vantage of every opportunity to pro-
vide subsistence for their herds dur
ing the winter months. Sloughs and
creeks all over the county have dried
up. leaving scant possibility Of late
hay crop.
Cattlemen still holding stock they
wish to sell to the government should
see their township committeeman at
once and have the herds appraised.
Information relative to when this
stock may be shipped has not been
received but cattlemen should be In
readiness to move their stock immed-
lately after the re-purchasing begins.
Efforts are being made to clean up
the appraisal work In each township

areas may be avoided by the bureau of

states. Tuesday made public here q
four-phase plan for an experiment In

He said the plan ultimately would

Phases OF the project, on which
work already has started. are:
Rehabilitation Of rural South Da-
