The original plan was to initiate formal collective action in de- nouncing communistic _propaganda abroad, but on reconsiderdtion, the statesmen came to the conclusion that this might create the impres- sion in Moscow that steps were be- ing taken for a united front against Russia. Poland is understood to) have been the guiding spirit in ad- vising against angering Russia by even an appearance of hostility, em- phasizing that such an attitude would serve to intensity the Rus- sian national spirit in the same man- ner as it was aroused at the close of the great war by military interven- tions. Nevertheless, according to the Geneva information, there is every likelihood that the German foreign minister, Dr. Gustave Stresemann, following up informal conversations on the subject with M. Tchitcherin, Russian foreign commissar, will acquaint him with the feeling that has beeft engendered throughout Turope by the activities of the third international, and warn him in a friendly way that these activities are militating against Russia. | In this connection, the German newspapers, while declaring it is the Moscow government's duty to repudiate the activities of the third | international, print warnings to Dr.<‘ Stresemann that he is In imminent danger of finding himself in the line- | up of anti-soviet nations. Commenting on the proposed con- | ference to consider the Russlan| problem, the soclalist organ Vor- waerts welcomes it on condition that | Russia is invited, and expresses the bellef that it would be an auspicious omen if"Germany were permitted to assume the role of mediator. Meanwhile the Russian news- | papers, according to despatches from Moscow, are laying stress on the necessity of preparing for a foreign . war, which they say is a prospect facing the country. But from all ap- pearances, it is declared, the warn- ings are attracting little attention, with no evidence of recruiting, drill- | ing or military activity. Notwithstanding all sorts of sen- sational reports printed abroad con- | cerning Russian internal affairs, di- | rect despatches from Moscow say all | is' quiet, with the population seem- ingly permitting nothing to interfere with their usual routine and summer pastimes. There are descriptions of crowded streets, parts and motion | plcture houses, and of trains loaded to capacity with pleasure seekers on the way to the favorite Crimean re- sorts. It is stated that the recent as-| sassination in Warsaw of M. Voikoff, the soviet minister, and the result- ant exchange of notes between Mos- cow and Warsaw have not evoked as much comment as the break in Anglo-Soviet relations. SPEECH ON UNWED | UNIONS ANSWERED Bishop Murray Dismisses Lewis' Remarks Lightly San Francisco, June 16 (A—The declaration that the church might find it necessary to sanctify unmar- ried unions, made to the Episcopat church congress here Tuesday nigat by Rev. Henry Lewis of Ann Ar- bor, Mich., was treated with calm- ness by Bishop John G. Murray of Maryland, presiding bishop of the Episcopal church. When his views were asked con- cerning Mr. Lewis' speech, the bishop said: “He is young. I do not agree with his views—how could I1? But I swe no harm in his voicing them. I cannot say whether he will have trouble over this; that s for the | legislative body of the church to decide.” In his declaration, Lewis sald that, “If to sanctify the unmarried union would do away, as some urge it would, with promiscuity and the double standard, and better protect the children of legal marriages, then to keep on fussing with rules THREE DAYS SALE of Used Sewing Machines 25 Singers from $12.75,$22.75 15 Whites from $12.75,.$22.75 5 New Homes from These Machines are in per- fect sewing order—Guar- anteed.

The farm market is on the up-grade. A tremendous volume of business is now being done nationally by those manufacturers who are aggres- sively reaching out for farm trade—and there is even more in sight.

July wheat—the first of this year’s crop to reach the market from' the Southwest—shows an in- crease of 21 cents a bushel in eight weeks. Northwest’s wheat—known as September options —shows a gain of 20 cents in the last eight weeks. Cash corn has been beyond the hoped for dollar a bushel. It shows the amazing increase of 26 cents in eight weeks. September corn is 20 cents a bushel above the 1926 level—an increase in value of over 25%. Cash oats and rye, and all future options, have advanced nearly 25% in value over 1926 prices. Cash cotton, middling upland, is 17 cents, a gain of 6 cents from last fall's low price.

In those sections where 1927 spring sales were smaller, many dealers felt that heavy rains and poor roads were to blame and that the loss would be more than made up later in the year.
