Geneva, Switzerland, Feb. 1 (UP) ~—Swiss farmers, who seem to have the same tendency as American Ones for being overwhelmed with mort- gages and debts, have just applied to the Swiss federal government for & “Dawes plan” in their. behalf. It the scheme works they have no objection whatever to American farmers adopting it. provided ethey can put it over on Washington. Naturally, the Swiss government .( has no authority for paying off the L) ’ debts of its private citizens, but to get around this the project of the Swiss farmers merely provides that 1t create a special fund in their be- half by appropriating $100,000 an- nually, At the end of 13 years when this fund will total $1.300,000 the riations will cease. “’F:o Yhs meantime the authorities in charge of the fund will under- take settlement of the debts and all mortgages of small farmers who ap- peal to it. A First of all the administrators of the fund in each case will under- take a consolidation of the mort- gages and debts of each farmer, preference being given in every case to the claims of the oldest creditors. ‘When the debt on each farm has been consolidated, payment will be made from the fund created by the state at the rate of 10 per cent an- nually, of which ¢ 1-2 per cent will be for interest and the remainder for a sinking fund for the payment of the debt itself. Under this sys- tem the entire debt will be liqui- dated in 13 years. The only weakness that might ap- pear in the plan to the eyes of & .casual observer is that no especial provisions are made for the farmer to pay back the state for having liquidated his debts. Once, however, the farmer takes advantage of the state's “Dawes plan” to get him out of debt he no longer has the right either to dis- -pose of his farm or to incur fresh debts on it as a security. He can, however, pay off the complete in- debtedness at any time he may wish or may be able to do so and thus come back into full control of his farm—for the incurring of fresh ‘mortgages and debts, if he so de- sires, British Hunters Send Game to Hungry Miners Aboyne, Abedreenshire, Bcotland, ‘Feb. 1 M—Red deer of the Bcottish highlands are being slaughtered to feed starving British miners and their families Rich. sportsmen, guests of Lord Glentanar, are doing the killing on the Glentanar estate of 40,000 acres #0f the finest loch, river and wood- "and’ ‘wcenery in Scotland!

THREE JAPS LEFT FROM FIRST DIET Are Only Survivors of Original Congress in 1800 Tokyo, Feb, 1.—UM—Three griz- zled survivors of the first session of the Imperial diet, which met in 1890, are looking forward to an |active part in the current §6th ses- sion. Each of this trio - of veterans of the house of representatives has an unbroken record of participation in every sesslon since the beginning, each has battled successfully in 16 general elections to hold his place. They are Ki Inukal, Hajime Moto- da and Yukio Osaki, gallant rem- nant of a constantly dwindling band. Ozaki, considered Japan's most eloquent orator, maintains a life- long reputation for vigorous inde- pendence and belongs to no party. Inukai, formerly head of a liberal party, has found a temporary place in the - conservative ranks of the Belyukai, which supports the Ta- naka Ministry. Motoda has long been a wheel-horse of the Seiyukai and is now speaker of the house of representatives. All three men held cabinet posts, Inukai as com- munications minister, 1924-25; Mo- toda as rallway minister, 1918-22, 'jntongeq father-in-law, and told him tion, and Miss Creagh Henry ,will and Ozaki as education minster as far back gs 1898 and again as jus- tice minister, 1914-16, Ozaki speaks and writes English fluently. Ozaki will reach the Biblical three score and ten this year. Mo- toda is three and Inukai four years older. Japanese Honor Kato By High Appointment Tokyo, Feb. 1 M—Admiral Kanji Kato, Japan's chief naval adviser at the Washington conference of 1921- 2, has been raised to membership in the supreme war council, com- posed of the highest military and naval officers sitting as advisers to the emperor on imperial defense matters. Admiral Kato, whose promotion has been unusually rapid, is one of the youngest men to be thus hon- ored, as he is only 47. i On his elevation ‘to the council ihe was relieved of command of the first fleet, which carries with it com- mand of the combined fleets when- ever the navy is operating as a unit, and In that post is suceceeded by Admiral Shoshin Taniguchl, a vet- eran who formerly commnfanded the Kure naval base. 0 PRINCESS QUITS BEFORE THE ALTAR Refuses to Wed Prince as H Is Engaged to Another Regensburg, Bavaria, Feb. 1 UP— Two branches of an ancient Euro- ‘peun royal house were agreed today that love, rather than matters of policy. should be the controlling factor in matrimony. | Princess Illa, of the Bohemian brapch of the House of Thurn and Taxis, left Prince Raphael Ranier of |the Bavarian branch of the same | house, waiting at the altar yester- day, with the tearful explanation that her heart was “engaged to an- other.” | But far from a tendency to coerce her to go through with the cere- mony—which had reached th2 stage where the participants were | merely awaiting the reading of the service—the heads of the two branches of the family gave 1heir; sanction to the action of the prin- cess. There was regret that the fam- | ily name should have become in- volved in sensational publicity, but there seemed to be some relief that the pretty princess, who is 24, should have discovered her feelings while there was yet time. Today the princess was on her way back to her Czechoslovakian ©states, while people wondered who | the other man in the affair might | be. s Guests Gather Numerous guests had gathered at | Regensburg to witness the cere- mony and the bishop of Regensburg was ready to read the service when #rincess 1lla went to Prince Albert. ,the eighth reigning prince and her she loved another.

Prince Albert called the elders of the house, including Prince Krich, | Princess Illa's father, into & con- | ference, and then followed the can- cellation of the engagement. The Thurn and Taxis clan is ene of the oldest families in Germany. Onee it had the first Ger- man mail distribution contracts, for which it was paid a huge indemnity , in money and estates in Wurtem- berg, Bavaria, Bohemia, and Croatia in 1876 when the reich took thew over. Prince Albert, present chief of the house, was born in 1857, and mar. ried the Austrian grand-duchess, Margaret; the jilted prince, who is 22 years old, is their sixth son. An uncle of the jilted prince fm 1911 married Lida Eleanore Fitsgerald at Uniontown, Pa. The head of the Bohemian branch of the house, of which Princess Illa is a member, is hef grandfather, . Prince Alexander, who, born in 1851, married Princess Marie Ho- henlohe - Waldenburgh - Schillings. 5 fuerst, | Church Plans Morality Plays for Bank Clerks ' London, Feb, 1 (P—Workers in the City, London's financial aistrict, are to witness plays on a movabte stage in the Church of §t.
