T II R DAILY NBBRASKAN GOMPERS 8PEAKS ON DISARMAMENT (Continued From Page One.) he hopes to soo America tnke tlie lend, lie said today. Mr. Gompers' statement endorsing the international economic conference which has been proposed by the gen era I committee on the limitation of armament, follows: "An international economic confer ence should follow the conference on limitation of armament, taking full advantage of the tremendous impetus which it has given to international thinking. "At bottom the major immediate troubles of the world today are eco nomic. "The world is not living normally Over large portions of the world the machinery of production is practically at a standstill. In some places it is even in a state of decay. "Work is disjointed, production crip, pled. "I venture to ansert that thousands of skilled workmen have lost much of their skill and much of their will to work, because of the long continued absence of opportunity to work The world is losing both immediate and potential production. "This Jeopardizes progress. "However much exploitation may in terfere with the process, it is ines capably true that human progress, the improvement of standards of living, the broadening of human horizon, rests upon our aggregate ability ta produce and distribute wealth. "We cannot suffer a great break down in production without paying a' penalty. It may not be immediately obvious, but society pays, neverthe less. "An economic conference, rightl conceived, going about its work in the spirit of the conference now bein held, determined to achieve, having our best possible contribution of min and thought and unselfish construe tive ability, could accomplish much toward a restoration of economic sta bility. "It must be clear that a purely fi nancial conference would be inadc quate. More than finance must be considered. Finance may be dis cussed, but it is essentially secondary to commerce and production. Troduc tion is primary, finance is important but secondary. "The root of the juble is in the fact that factory! wheels (are idle that human hands are idle, that hu man being are in need. It is the basic needs of life that must be con sidered. Commodities must be stud ied. A comprehensive dealing with necpssities r.nd fundamentals is the prime requirement of the hour. "We have been given such hope, such audacity to hope, by what we have been witnessing that it is pos sible to go beyond hope an l ti ex pert that we slia"l have I' e groat statesmanship to bring about such ; conference and to carry the gat pi-eject to success. "The first essential on this globe is th proper sustenanre of human life. The response already manifested indicates the broad desire for a con ference that will consider human life. It will be noted that European le;:dprs already are manifesting keen interest ami curiosity. American idealism again has an opportunity to function for the salvation of the world. I trust that those wiio are charged with the responsibilities of government may see and sole this great opportunity." Since the general committee's pro posal for an International economic conference, to be called by the gov ernment of the United Stntes, was announced on Monday, many vigor ous endorsements from all over the country have reached the committee headquarters, 1319 P street. cTnder the chairmanship of fiishop Mclioweil, a battalion of nearly 1.R00 speakers an) ready to take the platform to arouse a nation-wide expression of public opinion In behalf of recurring international conferences, anil a world agreement based upon an 'organic and continuing relationship" of na tions. Any organization In any state may be provided with a speaker, by notifying the speakers' bureau, gen eral committee on the limitation of armament, 1319 F street, Washing PRACTICAL LESSONS ON HUSKER FARMS PRACTICAL LESSONS FOR HUSKER FARMERS The college of agriculture, through its department of rural economics, has recently made another step forward in bringing before the farmer the facts concerning the economics of agricul ture The method used to reach the fanner is through meetings held in rural school houses at which an ex tension man from the college of agri culture is present to explain various phases of farm economics such as the use of farm accounts, the influ ence of cost of production on profits the freight rates, the corn surplus the trend of agricultural prices and the organization of the various farm enterprises. At one of these meet ings held recently in Johnson county, E. L. Taylor of the extension service discussed the present corn surplus and the problem it presents. M.r Taylor also presented a very interesting chart which by a curved ne showed the fluctuations of prices from 1S40 to 1920. One particularly interesting fact brought out by the chart was that pricefiuctuations were practically the same for the Civil war and the World war. First there was depression then a rise in prices which continued rapidly until they reached a peak shortly after the war closed. Following this peak they Iropped with great abruptness. It also brought out the fact that agricul- ural prices rose first and dropped first in both cases. Several such meetings to study ;;rm economics nave Deen neia al ready and a large number are planned or January and Februry. GLEN A. REEVES VISITS ON NEBRASKA CAMPUS Glen S.
