Delano, prflldentl of the Chest, the other by Mrs. Elwood Street, wife of its director. | Recalling promises kept by the Com- munity Chest during the past year as a basis for its_continued support by the people of Washington this year, Mr. Delano called attention to some. of the achievements of the Chest in its first year here. Social work execu- tives have been relieved of the burden of raising money, he explained, and enabled to devote their entire time to ccnstructive service, Only Necessities Included. “Only organizations which accom- plish a necessary work have been ad- mitted to the Chest,” Mr. Delano said. “The budgets of these agencies were approved only after a detailed study by a committee of experienced and re- | sponsible citizens, ~ Buslness-like ad- | ministration, coupled with competent bookkeeping, regular service reports and audited financial accounts have result- ed in a larger percentage of every dollar going into actual constructive work. “Every contributor has had a share in, conirolling the Community Chest through ballots on which he might vote for persons nominated for the board of trustees. Furthermore, the Community Chest bills have carried on them space for suggestions and criticisms by con- tributors. “Contributions to the Chest for 1929 amounted to $1,487,000, a considerable increase over the amount previously raised by separate appeals of member organizations. The increase was neces- sary to prevent deficits and borrowings |- which existed under the old system. ‘Whereas only 13,000 givers were listed in 1928 by the 57 separate appeals, the Chest received contributions from 65,000 people. Collections already have | reached 92.3 per cent; and when all collections are in, in spite of additional appropriations which have been made necessary, a surplus of about $80,000 will be left, which will be applied to roducing the amount which otherwise would have to be raised this year. “Whereas the separate appeals before cost anywhere from 15 to 25 per cent of the funds collected, the Chest con- ducted the campaign and collected and disbursed the funds at a cost of 6 per cent in 1929, and this wlfl be reduced to 5% per cent in 1930.” Mrs. Strect spoke at the Sunday school meeting of the Swedenborgian Church, Sixteenth and Corcoran streets. Underprivileged Children Aided. She explained the care of under- privileged babies and children under the supervision of the visiting nurses and opportunities with the Boy and Girl Scouts and also in the Summer umpuottheY M. and Y. W. C. Associated ' Charities and the 'l?.\elm Ald Soclety were praised. Mrs. Street explained that the con- tributions this year may be given on @ four-payment plan. FOURTH BANDIT TAKEN.

Never since the | war days has Washington joined hands | so wholeheartedly for a common pur- | pose. : We believe in the Community Chest because we think it makes for a quicker development of. all social resources of the community; because it develops friendly understanding between agencies which in the last analysis must make | for better service to the unfortunates | looking to these agencles for needed | care. We belicve in the Community Chest because as public health nurses we are public servants and we believe the Chest is for the public good. We work through our staff for better mental and physical health in thousands of families and (nr‘ the relief of sickness among all groups. | To do this we-co-operate with almost all of the other community agencies, whether these be hospitals, clini settlement houses, family l:gse worklng agencies, or the Y.

SOCIETY 0 STuDy MEANS TO PEACE .- Kellogg Agreement Outlawmg War Inspires New Survey. ‘The American Peace Society, an or- ganization more than 100 years old, with headquarters at 20 Jackson place, today made public its program for 1930, the most outstanding feature of which is the study of “pacific means” avail- able to nations for composing thelr dif- ferences. Expllimnl the new study, President William Fortune said in part: “‘Pacific meéans,’ the peace society believes, are the paramount words in the peace movement today, and on these two words will largely hinge practical efforts for establishment of peace in the future. By the Kellogg-Briand u'uty we have outlawed war, agreed to use only pacific means in settling inter- national disputes. The problem of. de- fining and establishing the pacific means that will be practical and acceptab! all signatorie: of the treaty is of the greatest impatance to the world. It is by the peace experts and the peace orfi\utlom that this problem must be solved.” SHIPPING NEWS Arrivals at and Sailings From New York. - ARRIVED, Pastores—Port Limon.

STAR, WASHINGTON, NDEPENDENCE AIM OF MONGOLS TOLD Amban of Barga Declares Russian Efficiency Has Dis- credited Chinese. As the first American correspondent in the Barga area of Manchuria following cessation of hostilities with Russia, Paul Wright has obtained a significant decla- ration from the highest chieftain of the Mongols, who are claiming independence from China. BY PAUL WRIGHT. By Radio to The Star and the Chicazo aily News. Copyrigh HA!LAR Manchuria, .ununry 19 (Delayed) —Barga’s movement for in- | dependence, now the immediate goal of that Mongol district in Northwest Man- ! churia, was fanned largely by the Soviet invasion during the Sino-Russian con- | troversy, according » Prince Kuei Fu. The prince is the « aban, or supreme Mongol chieftain, of Barga, and in an interview with this correspondent, who accompanied American Consul Gen- eral Hanson and other consular of- ficials as the first American press rep- resentative to enter the region since the late _skirmishes, revealed the aims which he was ‘especially anxious to have understood in the United States. Soviets Used Propaganda. Prince Kuei Fu explained that the Soviets made the best of their stay in Manchuria by disseminating Com- munist propaganda. In addition to this direct influencs. Zuc vuatrast of the highly effirizat “Russian mmathine with the loose and antiquated Chinese organization was too much for Mongol allegiance to China, China's’ grip on Western Manchtria was weakened by the conflict with the Soviets, incidentally promoting Barga’s cause, the amban showed. When Hailar became panicky, the Mongols took a valiant part in policing the city, thus goining confidence in their own powers, while at the same time they saw the disruption of the Chinese army. Aé;n the Mongols are annoyed by the conduct of the Chinese taoyin, a sort of governor general, who has grown rich handling Mongol taxes. Since his return, a few daws ago, he has pro- claimed a heavy export tax and has or- dered the railway to ship out no goods without the stamp of his office. Total Freedom Desired. For the sake of Mongol co-operation China has been paying the local Mon- gol administration $30,000 a year. Bar- ga enjoys something like extraterrito- riality and lawsuits involving Mongols are settled onl{‘ by the Mongol yamen, | while mixed Chinese and Mongol cases are heard in mixed courts. But the emboldened Bargans are attracted by total freedom, and even want to send their own delegate to the Moscow con- ference for February to liquidate the ‘hinese Eastern Rallway issue. —_—— OVER NINE BILLIONS { TAKEN IN 1928 TAXES National Industrial Conference Board Finds Rise Due to State and Local Levies. By ‘the Assoclated Press, NEW YORK, January 20.—Federal, State and local government taxes col- lected in the United States during the fiscal year of 1928 totaled $9,289,000,000, according to a survey announced Satur- day by the National Industrial Confer- ence Board. ‘This was an increase over the $9,059,- 000,000 collected in 1927, the survey stated, due entirely to rising State and local taxes, as Federal tax collections for 1928 were lower than for either 1927 or 1926. State governments in 1928 collected $1,465,000,000 in taxes, the survey re- vealed, and local governments $4,630, 000,000. State and local taxes, combined, for | the year increased in all but three States—North and South Dakota and | Montana—and the decreases in these States were slight, the report said. | Total collections of State and local ! taxes per capita of population were greatest in Nevada, amounting to $86,84. | California ranked second with $78.16 per capita and New York State third with $76.10. Alabama’s State and local tax col- lections were lowest, amounting to $17.68 per capita. DICTATOR’S i’LANS TOLD.

We have already done so in regard to the exchange and reception of programs between this country and Europe.” Studies Here. Mr.. Lewis will spend several months in New York, studying American meth- ods. In the productions he will direct and produce for N. B.

The act of valor and self-sacrifice which won the award for Lieut. Math- eny occurred at Managua, Nicaragua, August 30 last, just after Lieut. Math- eny, with Lieut. Dwight Canfield and in an LB-6 bombardment plane, which was one of four being ferried from the United States to Panama for use in the Canal Zone. Fire Starts in Airplane Motor.

Two women high in public life en- gaged in a radio debate on the tariff today, expressing their theories in terms calculated to appeal to the American housewife. Representative Edith Nourse Rogers of Massachusetts defended the high protective tariff of the Republicans, while Representative Mary T. Norton of New Jersey upheld the Democratic low tariff principles The debate was broad- cast from Station WMAL over the Co- lumbia Broadcasting system. Representative Rogers argued that “protection for one is a benefit to all and discrimination against the producer is bound to react against the con- sumer.” ‘Warning of the dangers in lowerin, tariff barriers, she said, the tari “should not discriminate against any section or any class of producers.” Representative Norton devoted part of her address to a direct attack on the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill. She de- fined it as “an extraordinary protection to the already overprotected rich indus- tries of this country, whose considera- tion is not so much their employes as it 1s world dominance.” She also declared that the American policy of buying from the debtor nations on our own terms is prejudicial to the interests of world peace. 17 PATROL PLANES ARRIVE AT SPOKANE!

ARMED PATROL FEARED BY CANADA Danger -of Clash Seen as Parliament Deliberations Approach. BY CHARLES LYNCH. Special Dispatch to The Star. OTTAWA, Canada, January 20.— Questions of international importance will occupy a considerable portion of the Canadian Parliament's deliberations | during the approaching session, opening February 20. Proposals for an armed American | border patrol to prevent liquor smug- | gling into the United States will not | be relished by the parliamentarians who fear that it would inevitably lead to a serious clash. To Abolish Clearances. Premier Mackenzie King has given both public and private pledges that clearances to vessels with liquor cargoes for the United States would be abol- ished. Production of alcoholic liquor is legalized in Canada, but Premier King will make it illegal to export a legal product. Only 2 per cent of the liquor consumed in the United States emanates from Canada. ‘There is also the problem of joint development of the St. Lawrence River, With the hostility of Montreal to de- veloping navigation and power by joint action between Prescott and Montreal, no agreement is anticipated at the com- ing session. Changes more palatable to patriotic Canadians are in project for the British Columbia fisheries pact which Conserva- tive members of Parliament from that province successfully fought last session, although it has the support of ths | provincial government, Partnership Control Equal. By this treaty for the preservation of the Sockeye salmon industry in the Fraser River, the United States is given an equal partnership control in the waters of the Fraser Basin. Premier King has not announced his tariff policy with respect to the United States, although there has been a de- mand from Conservatives for retaliation against the tariff increase on Canadian produce. Canadian purchasers per capita in the United States are about $50 annually as against $4 for the American here. It is not believed that tariff revision will do much to remedy this disparity by checking American manufactures pouring into Canada or the flow of Canadian raw material to the United States to produce exports to this country.
