GOOLIDGE SEEKS, BEST MEANS OF RELIEF ON FARM Great Variety of Plans Are Submitted at His Request. BY FRASER EDWARDS (United Press Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, Sept. 29—Out of the mass of the farm relief plans piled on his desk. President Coolidge tonight sought a remedy to put ag- pauiaas back on a sound economia is. In his search for a way to relieve the Stricken wheat farmers the pre: ident has invited suggestions from the country. A great variety of p'ans have been submitted to him as a result. They have come from bankers, farmers'and government of- fictals. From these widely varying propo- sals the president is finding difficulty in determining upon the best solu- tion of the most serious problem now confronting the government. He is expected to come to a decision next week after the various plans have been threshed out by the cabinet and governmental agencies studying the problem. Here are the suggestions from Which the president expected to se- lect his remedy, 1. Revival of the United States Grain corporation to handle the wheat crop and cooperate with t farmers in regulating future acreagt To carry out this suggestion made by a committee of northwestern farmers and bankers the president must call an extra session of con- gress. 2. Call an extra session and fix the price of wheat at $1.75 a bushel, s urged by Senators Brookhart, Towa: 7 Frazier, North Dakota: Wheele Montana;; Johnson and Shipstead of Minnesota and many others. 3. Increase the duty on wheat from 30 to 45 cents a bushel, under the flexible provisions of the tariff act, asked by Representative Ander- an ugly outcome appeared probable. Well informed authorities said the federal government already _ was considering retaliatory measures against Bavaria and might cut off traffic between Bavaria and outside points, The foreign office here still hoped for a peaceful solution. By CARL D. GROAT (United Press Staff Correspondent.) BERLIN, Sept. _29.—Another Stone in the wall separating Ger- many and France in their effort to reach a basis for resumption of ne- fotiations to settle the reparations problem had been removed. tonight. Following strong intimations from Paris that the French government would refuse to enter negotiations wntil Germany cancelled her order of January 13 stopping payment of reparations with manufactured pro- ducts and raw materials from the Ruhr, the Reich's authorities this afternoon rescinded the objection- able ruling, The German foreign office ex- plained, however, that lifting of the ban on deliveries of German goods to France and Belgium did not mean, necessarily, an immediate resumption of these deliveries. Resumption of the payments “in kind,” it was explained, naturally depends upon a return to normal of the economic life of the Ruhr. The Ruhr industries, offieials said, have suffered even more than the world has been led to believe, as result of the nine months idle. ness brought about by passive re. stance to the Franco-Belgian oc. cupation, Germany feels that France Stopped the Ruhr’s production and that France and Belgium are nc {#0 of Minnesota and farmers and sponsible for the disorganized in.|>®"kers committee. dustrial and transportation systems|_,*-_ Create @ grain export corpors of the great German productive|#tion- This was suggested See- area.

Raile roads would be prohibited from trans- porting any produce not packed in standard container: In a message accompanying the bill, outlining the p'an, the gov ment says that Argentina's agricul- tural output is one of the most in- fluential factors in the world’s grain markets. but despite this fact, the methods in vogue are antiquated and the producer does not obtain a fair recompense for his labor.

(United Press.)— Segregation of sexes aids in the cure of tuberculosis, according to Dr. I. D. Bronfin, medical superintendent of the Denver Santtorium, a national ingtitution, maintained by the Jewish Consumptives’ Relief Society. In his report, Dr. Bronfin demonstrates the need of a special building for women patients. A new building, costing more than 250,000 for which the major pot tion of the funds was obtained by the ‘w York Ladies’ Auxiliary of the society. But already the need of more room to accommodate appil- cants, especially women patients, is apparent. The report points out that the women’s waiting list is now much larger than that of men. ‘This in itself would prove the need of addi- tional facilities, but aside from that, it has been found, that it fs best to segregate the sexes, and there js no doubt that such segregation would result in definite benefits to both men and women patients. It is therefore hoped that some measures will be taken to construct in the com- ing year a new building to accom. modate at least 75 women.
