Although the British communica- tion describing the compromise has yet to reach Washington, it is under- Stood here that it includes the as- signment of a total combat ship ton- nage to each nation and will permit the resumption of the conference in e fall. It is believed, too, that France and Great Britain have found a way out of their disagreement on limits to upon the construction of submarines, cruisers, destroyers and smaller vessels. The deadlock arose when France rejected proposals to limit submarines and great Britain declined to approve any limitation of craft used as a defense against eubmersibles. To reconcile total tonnage limita- tion with British views which are shared by the United States and Japan, it is understood that France is willing that the projected treaty set forth a specific construction pro- gram for each class of fighting ves- els, the grand tonnage total not to exceed the maximum prescribcd for each power. The treaty, it is fur- ther understood, would be effective for a specific length of time, within which each signatory nation would agree not to exceed the tonnage al- lotted to it for any class of war- ships. AIR REGULATION PROBESTARTED Whether it can regulate the busi- ness of air transportation, and if so, | to what extent, was occupying the time of railroad commission mem- today. The first thought of the members ‘was that air lines will come within their jurisdiction just as other com- mon carriers do, but they want to make sure. The board’s legal department is working on the question today, and to have a definite idea of the board’s powers within a day or 0. Two applications for permission to operate air lines have been re- * evived, one each from Minot and Fi “Chairman Harding will confer ‘with the Minot applicants within a day or two, he said.

Mosquito Reuer oo a» FEW CEQ, WCRAY FARM REVERTS BACK Former Indiana Governor Re- gains Famous Farm, Thanks to Friends Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 1—#)— Warren McCray today reached another turn in the ders d road of life. With the financial aid of friends he came into control again of the 2,640 acre Newton county farm on which he built up years ago, a world famous herd of Herefor cattle. The farm arp from him in 1923 when, while serving as gover- nor of Indiana, his presonal finan- cial affairs became involved. An assignment to creditors, a receiver- ship and finally a federal grand jury investigation resulted. Then came a trial and his sentence to ita federal the mails in fur- me to defraud. A year ago he passed out/of the prison gates on parole and within the 12 months he has reorganized his affairs and today his friends say he has the chance of fulfilling promise he made to repay every penny of loss occasioned by his fi- nancial failure. ‘ It is MeCray’s hope that he will be able to build up again the Here- ford herd from which at one time he sold cattle at ee as high as $25,000.for one bull. McCray is now 63 years old. TE The Farm Week ¢ * i in Washington —<_$ $< $$$ BY FRANK I. WELLER (Associated Press Farm Editor) Washington—(AP)—A plain story of the social and economic problems to be solved on the farm has been told to the Department of Agricul- ture by 2,745 city dwellers who one time were farmers. It is their an- swer to the government’s inquiry, addressed to 20,000 ex-farmers in an effort to determine why had given up agriculture as the means of a livelihood. The picture they pre- sent is an extremely human one, in- dicative of the farm ills as they have presented themselves to the men and women they affected. Summarizing and classifying the replies to government questionnaires and allowing the authors of such re- plies to speak for themselves, the story may be worded as follow: “We represent every state in the unic Some of us were farm ten- ants and some were farm owners. In fact, one out of six was a farm tenant. None of us was a hired man at the time of leaving the fa: Two-thirds of us, who were owners, still own our farms. The 2,745 of us have a total of 9,000 children, and somewhat less than half of them are still in our homes. More than half of our number discontinued farming prison for us therance of a scl AKA 7s Why dread nightfall .. the menacing hum ..the stinging mosquito bite . . when just a few cents’ worth of FLY-TOX sprayed in rooms and on screens gives you complete relief?

A third of us had been farming from 100 to 175 acres. A sixth had farms of from 175 to 249 acres, and 24 had farms of 1,000 acres or more. Most of us were born in the United States, country. ° “Various reasons for giving up agriculture prevailed with us. In this respect we may be classified in- to five main groups, each group hav- ing a different principal reason for moving to town. “More than a third of us found farming to be a poor business, This group could not make its income only 1 in 10 coming from a foreign |be meet expenses. High oe! for the goods bought, low prices for the things sold, and high taxes, con- vinced this group that matters could not be worse in town and might be better. “The next largest group contains fully one-quarter of our number. Most are elderly and needed consid- erable hired help, which could not obtained. Feeling the strain of advancing years, the members of this group decided the best solu- tion of their problém was to go to town. They are the redl retired farmers, very different in age and aims from those found in the first group. “A third group, 1 out of 8 of which were farm owners and 1 out of 18 tenant farmers, decided that the educational advantages for their childgen were too poor in the coun- try and did not go far enough. They quit farming and moved to town to give their children the benefit of city schools. “A small group, 1 farmer out of 50, gave up the farm to a son or son- in-l ind joined the retired-farmer group. “The last of the five significant groups is composed of farmers who ssess money. Twenty-six were jarm owners and three were tenants —this is, nearly 1 out of 40 of the total number leaving the farm found themselves economically to the city and lead an Dance tonight at the DOME.
