Meanwhile, James and Elliott
stuck to their jobs in New Jersey
and Texas.
A AA officials, already worried
IA about processing taxes and
the complicated new cotton sub
sidy, now are scratching their
heads over the biggest crop pro-
gram they have ever tackled.
1t is the control Of the loWly
spud.
What makes the program diff
cult is that there are 100000
potato farmers. In the regular
potato areas such as Idaho, North
Carolina, the eastern shore of
Maryland and Aroostoock County,
Maine, control is fairly simple.
1t is the thousands of small po-
tato patches throughout the coun-
try which present the problem.
Because of the size of the prob
lem, the AAA has turned to the
Postoffice Department for help,
and it, in turn. will soon put on
sale a new variety of stamp which
Jim Farley so far hasn't heard Of.
1t is a tax-exemption stamp for
potato growers. Every potato
grower who keeps his crop within
the allotment program will get
tax-exempt stamps. Potatoes not
grown under the program, or in
excess, must pay a tax Of As cents
a bushel.
All of this entails tremendous
detailed supervision.
First tie AAA plans to make a
survey to determine the allotment
to be grown by each Of the 3,000.-
600 potato farmers. This is
especially hard among growers of
small patches"
Next there is the greater prob
lem Of checking on every Tom,
Dick and Harry who piles a few
spuds into the back of his tin-lizzy
and goes to town to sell them. He
is supposed to have tax-exempt
stamps on his potato bags or else
pay the as cents tax.
The AAA, which never wanted a
potato program, would like to
throw all the spuds back to the
authors of the bill in Congress.

They had no assurance that a man who did re-
port the conspiracy would be upheld. There was.
on the contrary, reason to believe that the entire
baseball industry would resent information that
some of the most valuable players in the business
had been guilty of conduct which would destroy their
box office value entirely. Christy Mathewson himself
had been rebuffed for impugning the honor of the
notorious Hal Chase.

a new era of industrial development and expansion made
possible by a new source of cheap power.

That is the opinion Of inventors, engineers. and in

Invented in 1892, developed into a ponderous, slow
moving engine by 1910, ut-distanced and all but driven
INTO oblivion by the rapid advances of the gasoline engine
ana the automobile in the last 20 years, the Diesel engine
was regarded by most engineers as interesting but unim-

In 1880 it began to stage a comeback. Today, Just
five years later, its advocates believe that is is ready to

DEFENSE
OF BASIC LAW

NEW BRUNSWICK, 7. j., Sept.
20 0.N.SD 1.-The defense of the
American Constitution against
encroachment or usurpation is
and will be your first RESPONSE
bility over the years to come. DR..
Robert C. Clothier, president of
Rutgers University, told students
at the opening convocation today.
He said:
Forces have been unleashed
which threaten the integrity
of our American Constitution.
In a period of social and eco
nOmic distress we have relaxed
our vigilance in the hope that
certain maneuverS dOubtlesSly
conceived in honesty of purpose
would bring back employment
and Sufficiency to our people.
Certain of these experiments
have violated the principles set
forth in our American tradition.
The defense of the American
Constitution against encrOach-
ment or usurpatiOn is and will
be your first responsibility over
the years to come"

London tomorrow reflected con-
Germ in high quarters.
King George, in contrast to most
of the worlds present crowned
heads, takes a deep interest in af
fairs of the nation, and the inter
national crisis was said to have re-
suited in his plan to hurry back
to London ahead of schedule.
Lloyd George Needed
The warning of David Lloyd
George, who guided Britain as
prime minister in the World War,
was regarded carefully by all Of
ficialS.
Government officials stressed
today that Britain will act in ap-
plication of sanctions, whether
economic or military, only in col
llaborati ton with France, the Little
Entente, and other units of the
League of Nations.
Threat to League
For this reason, a spokesman
said, the concentration of a vast
fleet of Italian airplanes on
Sicily, within striking distance
of the augmented British fleet,
cannot be regarded as threat
against Britain alone, but the
entire league.
The Little Entente-composed
of Czechoslovakia. Rumania and
Yugoslavia-has let it be known
that it is backing Britain to the
limit.
France, which may ultimately
determine the Leagues course,
opposes any drastic action
against italy, in spite of declara-
tions of support of the League
Covenant.
Besides the dispatch of battle
ships and fighting planes to the
Mediterranean zone, it was
learned, the British War Office
has ordered the crack First Bat
talon of Scots Guards to Egypt.
Normally they would go as re-
placements. but under the present
circumstances they will be rein,
forcementS.
Premier Mussolini's rejection OF
the League commissions peace
formula of foreign advisers for
Ethiopia and territorial readjust.
ments is accepted as a foregone
conclusion here.
Ethiopia, it is believed, would
never consent to complete milit
airy domination by Italy, so the
League of Nations will be faced
squarely with the issue of sane
tions as soon as the first italian
soldier marches into Ethiopian
territory.

seen in many years, and in Geneva
BY virtually every other member
of the League.
With indications that Ethiopia
was likely to accept the peace
proposition of the Leagues COM
mittee of five, it was reported
that Premier Mussolini was max
ing a last-minute attempt to take
the Italo- Ethiopian dispute away
from Geneva, fearing he may be
Unanswered into a position where
he could not wage war against
Ethiopia legally"
If the League council should
adopt the report of the committee
of five, and it is accepted by one
of the two disputants-in this case
by Ethiopia-the other, Italy,
would have no right under the
league covenant to declare war
legally.
II Duce wishes to avoid this
situation. Although heretofore
he apparently had given little
thought to this angle, today it
was evident he does not want to
break with Geneva unless he Is
compelled to.
AlOisi Courts Laval
The small powers would bitterly
combat any move tC take the dis
pute from the Jurisdiction of the
League Council, fearing a prece-
dent might be created if Ethio-
pia's formal complaint is side
tracked. This precedent in the
future might be used against any
one of the weaker League mem
berS.
Further indication of Premier
Mussolini's more cautious attitude
was his ordering Baron Pompeo
Aloisi, chief Italian delegate at
Geneva, to try to induce Premier
Pierre Laval of France to give as
surance the League would not in
woke severe military and naval
sanctions against Italy in the
event she rejected the Leagues
proposed settlement of the East
African dispute.
Instead of answering imme-
diately, M. Laval conferred with
Capt. Anthony Eden, chief British
delegate, and here Italy's case
again hit the firm opposition of
Great Britain. Captain Eden said
no such assurances could be given
at present. The smaller powers
again were believe to be lined up
Solidly behind Britain.
No further peace moves, and
especially no direct Italo- British
negotiations, are expected before
the communique that will prob
ably bare the results of Premier
Mussolini's cabinet session is is
sued.
Certainty was expressed that
Premier Mussolini would reject
