|Reviisiions Made
In AAA Program
New Seedlings May Qualify
as Part of 20 Per Cent
Conserving Acreage.

In an effort to insure production OF
vital war crops, the 20 per cent con-
serving acreage requirement OF the
Agricultural Adjustment program in
the north central region, including
Minnesota, has been adjusted, accord
ing to a recent announcement from
Charles w. Stickney, Minnesota AAA
chairman.
In explaining the adjustment, Case
Nieboer, Pine County AAA chairman
points out that regulations require
farmer to have 20 per cent of his
crop land in conserving crops ir
order to receive maximum allotment
benefit. Up to this time only ole
seedlings of grasses and legumes ano
new seedlings without a nurse CROP
qualified for the 20 per cent require
ment.
New Seedlings May Qualify.
Under the revised plan, new seed
ings of perennial grasses and legumes
or biennial legumes, seeded in &C
cordance with good farming prac-
tices with flax or small grains as q
nurse crop, may qualify as part OF
the required 20 per cent of crop land
in conserving acreage.
The maximum acreage which may
qualify under this item will be linn
tied, however, to 40 per cent of the
total 1912 acreage of the war crops or
the farm.
Included in the list of war crops
which will qualify for the 40 per
cent are soybeans for beans, flax
hemp, sugar beets, dry field peas
dry beans, canning peas and canning
tomatoes.
''The adjustment will aid consider
ably in bringing about the needed
increase of these products, which
have become grim necessities since
our entry into the war;" Mr.. Nieboe1
said. This applies only to those farms
in Pine county having a wheat OF
potato allotment.

The treaty ended a brief war in
November, 1910, when the Siamese

feat in Europe and attacked Indo-
China. The war hardly had started
when Japan stepped in as "the
predominant power in the extreme
Orient" and negotiated" an ar
mistice.
Regarding Mayotte which the
British seized last week, the Laval
government issued this communique
in connection with its protest:
For several days the radio station

pelago of Comore no longer has
been replying to calls from our
stations. According to information
/ of foreign origin this island which
has no means of defense was the
object of stroke of force. British

Froehling is the uncle Of Herbert
Haupt and was the first person con-
tacted by him In Chicago.
1t was revealed by Mr.. Hoover
that Froehling's name was on the
list of persons to be contacted, which
was approved by the German high
command. The saboteurs intended
to utilize the Froehling residence as
hiding place and a clearing point
for the exchange Of information.
Froehling has admitted, that on
Haupt's arrival at his home he left
in Froehling's possession bag con-
tanning $9.950 concealed in a secret
compartment. This money was
found by FBI agents in the Froeh-
ling home. He has admitted that
Haupt informed him of his landing
in the United States from a Ger
man U-boat after being trained in
Germany by the German high COM
mand to commit sabotage and he
knew the money in his possession
was to be used for that purpose.
Haupt was contacted at the Froeh-
ling home by one of the other
sabotage agents.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Froehling were
born in Germany. He arrived in
the United States in 1926 and be-
came a naturalized citizen in Chi
cago in 1881. She arrived in the
United States in 1923 and was nat
uralized in Chicago in 1885. They
are known to have associated with
members of the German American
Bund and other German organiza-
tionS.
The trial of the eight saboteurs
was resumed about 10 am. today,
with indications that the prosecution
may rest its case before the end OF
the day.
After a quiet week end in the
District Jail the eight prisoners were
taken to the Justice Department
about o'clock this morning in the
same prison vans which have trans
ported them back and forth in the
past.
The arrival at the Justice De-
partment was a little later than
usual. AS a result the prison vans
and convoy Of soldiers and police
men encountered at the entrance tc
the courtyard a number of cars with
Justice Department officials.
These cars, which are usually
parked in the courtyard, were held
up at the curb on Tenth street until
the vans were unloaded. In one oi
fhen were FBI Director Hoover ane
