Reports of business conditions
throughout the country from federal
reserre agents are. In the main,
favorable and show Improvement for
Is'cTembcr, according to Information
from these sources published today
by the Reserre board. I
Boston, one of the least optimistic J
or the twelve reserve districts, says
(hat their business has improved
"but slightly, If at all," but that the
economies of the past months are not
now being so rigidly observed and
that the public generally Is spending
money more freely than In the past,
due, presumably, among other
tt.ings, to the fact that labor la more
generally employed."
ew York Baalaraa Better.
Activity and Improvement In trade and
Industry continued during; the. month,
Js'ew Tork report. 7Wa.ll and depart
ment stores have foQd bun!neaa very
much better with an Increaalns: demand
for higher rrada goods. Steel orders are
reported as very heavy notwithstanding
heavily advancing price's.
Philadelphia, says that conditions
throughout that district are gradually be
corr.lng better and substantial Imprve
mnt la reported In nearly all lines, mills
and factories of all kinds working at
nearer normal rapacity than for some
time, with voluntary wage Increases by
soma concerns, and reduced working
hours and larger payrolls than ever be
fore. Wtar Demd for Steel.
A tremendous demand for st-el prod
ucts and unprecedented activity In the
steel and allied businesses continue
through the Cleveland district with
prices the highest nlnoe 19CS. Output from
automobile and rubber manufacturers la
at rapacity and there is it scarcity of
labor.
Futher development of "the very satis
factory general conditions heretofore re
ported," features the Richmond district.
This Is said to be strongly In evidence
and general business is described as in
excellent i position both Immediate and
prospective.
Atlanta reports conditions generally
there as representing mora of a contin
uation of the favorable situation and out
look for the previous month than as
possessed of new features.

Business development In the Chicago
district Is reported as favorable and con
firms former reports of general recovery
with accumulated orders for future de
livery In steel equipment cars and heavy
structural forms exceed' ng all previous
experiences. Confidence in the future is

St. Louis says there ts Indication of a
considerable jncrease In business activity
In all parts of that district. ' with busi
ness men optimistic as to the future and
generally confident. The Improvement la
noted in almost all lines and the manifest
Improvement In the last two months is
aaid to have gone far toward wiping out
the losses of the early months of the
year.
Industrial conditions are reported good
In the Minneapolis district, with labor
fully employed. Bank deposits have In
creased, with lncresses In loans and dis
count over September.
Farmer lloldlnar Wheat.
Although; farmers In the Kansas City
district are reported as showing a de
cided Inclination to hold wheat for higher
prices, a considerable amount Is now
moving to this market With cold,
weather' approaching, improvement is
looked frr In commercial, industrial and
buelnecs conditions, and the district la
said to be facing the next few months
with optlmlstle complacency.
Reports from Texas, southern Okla
homa, northern Louisiana, southern New
' Mexico and southeastern ' Arisona are
aid to show a gratifying recovery from
conditions existing, at this period a year
ago.

that there ti not the slighteet ground
for such an intimation.
Each application for a paasport will
be subjected to the closest scrutiny. It
being feared, as one official said, that
"a wolf In aheep'a clothing" might get
aboard the ship end while playing the
part of an advocate of peace be In reality
a spy.
The Ftate department does not con
template that It could stop wireleaa mea
sagca being sent out from a neutral
Kuropean country calling the soldiers
from the trenches, but the belief was ex
pressed today that such messages would
necessarily be received In belligerent
countries by official government stations
and would be easily auppressed.
Vara Promataro Mlsht Be Arrested.
Legal authorities In the State depart
ment expressed the opinion today that
If the peace party went te any belliger
ent country and attempted te stop the
war they might be considered by the
country Involved as promoters of sedi
tion and treason. '
The number of applications for pass-
ports received so far te small and Mr.
Ford himself has sent bo application.
Only two mora days remain before the
peace ship Is scheduled to salt and It Is
considered doubtful that a great number
of passports can be issued by Saturday
vnlttsa the department receives a large
number today and before noon tomor

pects other neutral nations to send dele
r.stlons to meet the American peaoe party
at some place to bo decided upon later,
probably The Hague. A general confer
ence will then be held to decide on fur
ther steps.
Mr. Ford proposes that the delegation
from each neutral country appoint five
members of the permenent body. This
volunteer court of arbitration will map
nut schemes' for the establishment of

ceptable to all the belligerents.
Louis P. Lochner, secretary to the ex
pedition, said the idea of "getting the
toys out of the trenches by Christmas"
had been given up. "The whole thing is
trying the Impossible," he said, "but we
are trying Just the same."
Ford's Statement.
In a signed statement today Mr. Ford
declared :"Knvoys to thirteen belligerent
and neutral Kuropean governments have
found overwhelming evidence of a uni
versal peaoe iealre. We havo further evi
dence In hand that tho belligerent gov

Mr. Ford said that the expedition ex
pects to stop first at C hristian a. Norway.
From there It will proceed to 8 lock holm,
Copenhagen and The Hague. He asserted
he had definite letters of assurance that

They called attention to the Immediate
necessity of an adequate system of rural

farm demonstrators the city mea are

W. H. Campbell, reporting for the edu
cational committee, reported as follows,
the report being adopted:
We believe the twet Interests of our
school can be conserved by changing the
annual teachers' Institute from the hot
summer months to the autumn months
mi In shortening the term from one or
two werks to only two days at the woek

BRIGHTER FUTURE
FOR RURAL SCHOOL
W. H. Campbell of Clarks Gives
Fanner.' Congress Benefit of
His Studies.
WOULD HAVE WINTER TERM
W. II. Cnmpbell of Clarks, chairman of
the educational committee of the farm
ers' congress, msde his report on rural
schools during the afternoon session.
Csmpbell Is himself the father pf seven
boys and girts, and he says these are the
seven reasons why he Is interested In
good rural schools.
In concluding a long and exhaustive re
port "he said;
"In regard to the prospects for the fu
ture, there Is one matter of general In
terest to all dwellers of the country rela
tive to the division of the year Into school
periods. As arranged at the present time
lor the grading of subjects the year Is
divided Into two terms, which usually
t rrak In January or February. This as a
rule shuts out the larger boys and girls,
who find It necessary to work In the field
Curing most of the season, but who wish
to enter school during pecember, January
and February. The state superintendent
of pttbllo Instruction has as a part of
Mr program for next year the arrange
ment of a course of study adapted to the
rural conditions and divided Into terms
In such a manner that new classes may
be formed at the opportune time and re
views carried such as the larger boys and
Clrls of the country districts may wish
to pursue.
Tatars Look Brighter.
' "Testerday all the forces seemed to be
woiklng against us. Tdday confusion Is
turned to gladness. We have the oo
rperatlon offered of all public-spirited In
stitutions and Individuals. The powers
of the press are at our service. Shedding
the great reformtty light of publicity.
The Teachers' association sees a
new,
light, and the great state university is
doing much to meet country needs and
conditions. Ths board has made favor
able rulings and provisions.
"Among these is the ruling that a stu
dent will be accepted who has finished In
an accredited high school, even though !
he' took the ninth and tenth grades In the The bill win not be Introduced in con
rural or any other school. They also ' gress until President Wilson has given
have arranged with the state superintend-: his approval after Its revision by admlnls-
ent that a student may omit the foreign
languages from the ninth and tenth
grades and aubstltuts mathematics. Thus
the schools are coming to meet the needs
tnd the demands of the people.
tVaata Wlater Term.
"Finally we recommend a winter term
In rural schools for those who cannot
take the full year's work.
It can be done. It must be done. The
tracher may be secured from among the
normal trained students of ths School of
Agriculture.
Three months of teaching
will be good for them and will serve the
people of a community.
It we would conserve the youth of the
ccuntry, we must educate them where
they are. This winter terra will come,
as ass the night school of the cities, ss
supplementary and cltlsen-maklng in
struction. "In conclusion, we believe that the
greatest advancement comes through pub
licity, and we thank the press for their
generous effort Our future progress will
depend upon whom we elect to legislate
and administrate. Let ue do our duty.
Let us approve every effort to conserve
soil and stock, but our great burden Is to
conserve our youth for the present 'end
the future of our splendid land"

Ship Invefkip Hits
Submarine Boat
Near Gibraltar
NEWPORT NEWS. Vs., Dec. 2.-Cap-tnln
Olassen of the British steamer Inver
klp, which went Into dry dock here for
rush repairs today, says he believes he
accidentally rammed a submerged sub
marine while passing out the Straits of
Gibraltar on November .
The Inverklp, from Valencia to Norfolk
In ballast to load coal, was about one
hour's run from Gibraltar when there
was a great shock. The ship's officers
saw oil rise to the surface, and this, with
the fact that a long diagonal dent was
made In the bottom of the Inverklp, leads
Captain Olassen to believe he struck a
rubmarlne.
Several holes were torn In the Inverkip's
ballast tanks, and but for extremely calm
weather Captain Olassen believes his ship
would have sunk' immediately. The
steamer returned to Gibraltar, where tem
porary repairs were made.
