HIDING SUGGESTS1
GREATER FINANCIAL!
AIR FflRFARAAERS
Also Favors Co-Operative
Marketing — Bryan, Who
Follows Him at Farm Parley,
Praises Agriucltural Bloc.
Washington, Jan. 24. — President
Harding made three major i eoom
mendatlons Monday in hie speech
opening the national agricultural
conference.
They were:
1—Legislation permitting na
tion wide co-operative market
ing.
£—Organization of the agricul
tural Industry on an efficiency
basis, to put an end to haphaz
ard production and over produc
tion.
3—More extended financial
support.
Calls Orisis “Qrtm Reality.”
Based upon these major points, the
president elaborated a plan upon
which congress should legislate to
relieve the present crisis in agricul
ture which he described as a "grim
reality," and to provide a solid basis
for permanent welfare of the indus
try
. The president told the delegations
from every state of the union that
upon the base of sound and prosper
ous agricultural industry rested the
economic structure of the nation.
The delegates, more than two-thirds
of whom are directly interested in
farming, arose to cheer the president
when he appeared to open the confer
ence.
The president’s declaration that the
whole country Is awaiting with
"acute concern” the ability of the
conference to find a way to improve
the agricultural situation, met with
prolonged applause.
“Truly a National Interest.”
"It Is truly a national interest and
not entitled to be regarded as pri
marily the concern of either a class
or a section, or a bloc,” said Mr,
Harding.
The president pointed out that the
capital indebtedness of the country’s
enormous "agricultural plant” is
small, hnd he urged wider establish
ment of rural finance societies and
co-operative loaning associations to
give more elastic credits to farmers.
Citing the co-operative societies of
Russia, lie said they are "the most
potent support in that disturbed
country.
Taking up the question of high
transportation rates, which figure so
largely In production costs and In
prices to the consumer, the president
stressed the necessity of waterways
development hs a remedy. He de
clared that the United States rep
resents the world’s most attractive'
opportunity for extension of the sea
ways many hundreds of miles inland.
"Feasibility of the St. Lawrence
Great Lakes project is unquestioned,”
he declared in Indorsing the project.
He suggested nearly all railroads be
electrified later.
Representative farmers from eaoh
section of the country described con
ditions In their localities, and told
of the effects of agricultural depres
sion upon allied industries.
The conference appointed commit
tees to bring In reports on various
phases of the situation. These com
mittees will prepare drafts of legis
lation for submission to congress,
which will be acted on by the confer
ence as a whole before it adjourns on
Friday.
Bryan’s Talk Warmly Applauded.
William Jennings Bryan, although
not a delegate, addressed the confer
ence in praise of the agricultural
bloc In the Senate. It was the first
time, he said, that the farmer had a
champion in congress, to make known
the needs of the great agricultural
population. Mr. Bryan’s references to
the agricultural bloc were warmly ap
plauded.
Secretary of Agricultural Wallace,
who announced Representative Sid
ney Anderson, of Minnesota, has been
made chairman of the conference,
urged greater constructive efforts on
the part of the national and state
governments to improve agricultural
conditions.

DENY WIRTH CABINET
TO FALL THIS WEEK
Well Informed Political Oir
cles Declare Crisis Reports
Are Premature.
Special Radio Dispatch.
Berlin. Jan. 24.—Sensational rumors
that the Wirth cabinet will fail before
the end of this week are discounted in
well Informed political circles. It is
declared reports of such a cabinet
crisis are at least premature.
There was much discussion of the
speech of President Loebe, of the
reichstag, announcing the possible fall
of the cabinet Wednesday. The
speech is characterized as a social
democratic maneuver and as a, club
to force an agreement upon the taxa
tion program.
Plans were almost perfected last
week for enlarging the coalition gov
ernment by taking the people’s party
into the cabinet, with Herr Becker,
the former finance minister of Hes
sen, as minister of finance and Herr
Stressemann as foreign minister. The
plans were upset by the unexpected
differences over taxation schemes
which would put additional burdens
upon the people.

AS SHE DESIRES
—SHIDEHAHM
U. S Delegates Plan to Flee
Rather Than Fight as Tokio
Baron Throws Down Gaunt
let at Parley.
Washington. Jan. 24.—Japan on
Monday flung down tho gauntlet to
the armaments conference on the
juestlon of her military occupation of
Siberia and Monday night the Amer
ican delegation was preparing once
more to turn and flee rather than put
up a fight.
Baron Shldehara was waiting with
hla challenge. Secretary Hughes had
hardly concluded his brief announce
ment that "the next subject on the
agenda was Siberia," before the
baron was on his feet demanding rec
ognition. He Informed the confer
ence that he would state "exactly the
Intentions and alms of Japan In re
gard to Siberia.”
Viewed as a whole, Shidehara's
statement can be boiled down into
this defile:
"We will get out of Siberia
when we get good and ready, and
not before, notwithstanding the
American protest. If you don’t
like it, what ore you going to do
about It?"
"Nothing," the American answer
appears to bo.
Baron Shldehara stated the only
region now occupied by Japanese
troops Is the southern portion of tho
maritime province around Vladivostok
and Nlkolsk. Retention of the troops
there, he declared. Is necessary for
the protection of the lives and prop
erty of Japanese nationals until a
stablo government is established and
order restored. Further, the Japan
ese said only by this means could tho
security of the Korean frontier bo
protected from anti-Japanese con
spirators. He continued:
"The Japanese government Is
now seriously considering plans
which would Justify' It In carrying
out Its declaration of tho com
I plete withdrawal of Japanese
j troops from the maritime prov
ince, with reasonable precaution
for the security of Japanese resi
dents and of the Korean frontier
regulations."
duivu kjinu' iiai a iiauy siaicu iim
Japanese occupation of Sagballn
province Is wholly different and will
be sustained until Japan is indemni
fied for the losses to her nationals
in the massacre at Nlkolaievsk In
1920. But he assured the confer
ence:
“Nothing is further from the
thought of the Japanese govern
ment than to take advantage of
the present hopeless conditions of
Russia for prosecuting selfish de
signs."
Japan Prom iaea to Reaped Russia.
Summing up. the baron said:
“In conclusion, the Japanese
delegation is authorized to de
clare that It Is this fixed and set
tled policy of Japan to respect
the territorial integrity of Russia,
and to observe the principle of
non-intervention In tho internal
affairs of that country, as well as
the principle of equal opportunity
for the commerce and Industry of
all nations In every part of tho
Russian provisions.”
The session was adjourned im
mediately upon conclusion of Baron
Shidehara's statement. Discussion
will be resumed tomorrow morning.
American spokesmen Monday has
tened to hall the Japanese statement
as a “disclaimer."
American spokesmen further con
•eded Japan fixes no time for with
drawal of her troops and, under tho
tsrms of her statement, Is to be her
own Judge of the fulfillment of tho
conditions precedent to her with
drawal.
The point was attempted that this
time Japan asserts her honest Inten
tions "more definitely and positively
and without any effort to qualify her
previous declarations.
This statement by a responsible
American authority appears indica
tive of the course to be pursued:
“A more solemn and formal
declaration hardly could bo made.
It Is assumed that Japan's inten
tion was to make her disclaimer
so categorical that it will be Im
possible for her to remain defi
nitely In Siberia."
The United States, It was declured.
Is on record in unmistakable terms.
Secretary Hughes wrote a long note
last summer calling upon Japan to
get out of Siberia. The Japanese re
ply was virtually a paraphrase of
Monday’s statement. It Is asserted
this government has not receded from
any position It has taken In the mat
ter.
But American spokesmen declare
without hesitation that Baron Hhlde
hara’s statement was “very welcome.”
In one responsible quarter It was even
stated the Japanese statement
recognizes the American promise of
a "moral trusteeship" for Russia.
The conference has no authority to
go behind the Japanese statement and
see If conditions set forth actually
exist. It was asserted. Every power
In the conference has Information on
conditions in Siberia, however, and
some of them think the very presence
of Japanese troops creates the con
ditions put forward as Justifying Jap
anese occupation. It was declared.
A Russian prince has decided to for
get tins' soviets and has come to America
to study. He Is D. A. Shvetzoff, 19. who
recently arrived In New York, saying he
oxpeeted to enroll in the University of
Texas. He told the story of his family's
adventures, how they were imprisoned
by the bolshevlsts after tho revolution
and how he was set free.
