GREENSBORO DAILY NEWS. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 192J Agricultural Man Believes People of Country Should Have Meetings. ASKS TOWN FOLK TO HELP Raleleh, Nov'. 0. "W have tlio Rotarlans, chambers of commerce, Klwsnlanl, Merchant! associations, ClTltaas, Women's cluba, Lions and other erf antiatlons whoss purpose la to build for the publlo toed. But fcive not all of these overlooked the blret, nearest, most economical and remunerative Investment of them all the farmer?" , This question was asked by Fran K Parker, agricultural statistician of the North Carolina and United States departments of agriculture, In Issuing a statement today appealing to olty residents and ors-anltatlons to manifest more Interest In the farm rs of the country districts and to extend them more Co-operation. "North Carolina Is an agricultural state." said Mr. Parker. "There are no real cltlea The towns depend en tirely on the farm Interests for their prosperity. Tet how many of the organizations I have named have made a real constructive plan toward helping the farming- Interests as they would for a far less deserving and essential Industrial Interest In their limited city district? "As soon as the farmer gets a real start toward an organisation of the same kind and purpose, that the city enjoys, the selfish business Interests say 'It can't be done; It must not he done.' This destructive propaganda Is started. Money for the 'antr work i becomes plentiful, whereas that for Mrl of the deservingand prosperity -yr-rofiuctng farmer Is all too rare cx rept by country-reared men. "What v.O'ild happen If our cities, Kalelgh for Instance; should first im prove their streets that connect with all the major country roads and have a large sign at the city i limits. Th Fanners Interests Are Ours wel come'? What If they all had a square for the farmers to congregate, offer shelter and a meeting place, curb market and the evidences of slnceity In their 'welcome'? What If all the business men were to deal ae brother to brother with their coun try neighbor and have, as well at show, a real Interest In his affairs? , "Too few do this. "Because the farmer has to wear soiled clothes by virtue of dealing with the soil, Is no excuse for think ing him Ignorant and one to be Ig nored and belittle. A clerk In i store recently was riding In his flnt car and a farmer passed In his dlngj Ford- The clerk, remarked: 'It make, me tired the way these farmers com plain of hard times when they all have automobiles and pay cash for their purchases' Who deserves o needs an automobile more than the farmer? Who1 should criticise the farmer for wanting to save a few cents by offering his hard-earned cash for his few purchases? Who has the most freight and largest turn over of capital and profit In salse, the farmer or the urban commodity dealers? Which Is the most essen tial industry? "Opportunity lies right at our doors. Investments In farmers' af fairs pay the best interest. Th basis of our national prosperity be gins with the farm." he declared. The official explained that he did not wish his remarks to he Inter preted ss unfavorable criticism. The statement was issued, he said, "with ths hope of securing united efforts on the part of civic organlratlons to co-operate and assist the farmers of the state." Savaauak Baak Merge. Savannah. Oa..

Ambassador Sees No Reason Entering Needless and En tangling Pacts. TO PREVENT OTHER WARS t No Tongue or Type can describe the Rhodes Gift Bazaar. Last December we waxed enthusiastic in our announcement of gifts for men and today we ,are doubling our claims of a year ago! One lady who was in Wednesday said, "It's all so beautiful I'd love to sit in the center of the store in a revolving chair and study it." And this invitation is written to ask 1,000 ladies to come and carry out this suggestion Everything new Everything a man likes! Everything fairly priced! The Rhodes Clothing Co. Always Reliable Houston. Tux., Nov 30. Declaring that America should cancel at leant part of her war debt from the allie n order to make- sure that the world war wan a war to end wan, John Grier IJibben, president of Princeton university, In an address at Rice in stitute here today asserted that "now! is the time for the United States to.' ft u a (re whether the war sacrifices or the country have been in vain." "A great toll." he aald, "was paid by ' the allies in the year when we were In preparation to enter the, war. "If we exact further payment in money we will he demanding; that the allies pay the debt they owe us twice ever. It may be said by some that white this is a generous solu tion on our part of some of the diffi culties of Europe, it is not right that the nation should forego a contrac tual debt, that the government la the trustee of the funds of Ita peo ple and must safeguard the financial Interests of Its citizens. But if the people themselves demand it, they have the right to sacrifice their own Interests In view of a higher end possible of realization. -"We have already manifested thla spirit on a small scale In our his tory. The indemnity given to us by China on account of the boxer rebel lion was found to be larger than the claims of our American citizens. Con-N sequently, we returned $13,006,000 to China, "A similar action now on our part would not only give new courage and hope to Europe but would bring to our American people again the same elevation of spirit which we expe rienced In the years of 1917 and, 1918, during the world war. It Is a great day In the history of mankind when a powerful nation shall rise up and prove to all the world that It has a soul. "If we are wise enough and great enough to do thia thing we should very carefully safeguard our gen erosity through the demand that the nations of Europe should balance their budgets so as to wipe out the present annual deficits. They can not do this however, without a very substantial reduction of all their army and navy appropriations. "I do not know whether to regard It as a tragedy or a comedy that we should In the present world situa tion be represented at the various conferences abroad by one whose function Is that of a spectator. We are the only nation of the world that can act with striking power, and yet we are satisfied to look on. "We may delay and delay and de lay, taking those steps assuring us that the world war was a war to end wars until It la too late to avert such a war, and too late to guard ourselves from participation In It, or from the disastrous effects upon us and upon the generations yet to come, of another world war."

MUST PRESERVE FREEDOM B) JKtO'ietfHj Pmf.) Manchester, Kng . Nov. 30. George Tiarvey, the American ambassador. npeaking an the (cuest of honor at a Thanksgiving dinner of the Anglo America society tonight, outlined in six points what he considered a good formula for the national policy of the United States. The points as given by Mr. Harvey were: First: to foster the strength of republic by Just legislation and economy at homf. Second: To preserve to the nations of the world the blesslnigs of peace Third: To strive to cultivate anr" maintain a concert of Kurope. Fourth: To avoid needless and en tangling engagements. Fifth: To acknowledge the equal rights of all" nations. Sixth: The foreign policy of th" United States should always be in spired by love of freedom. Mr. Harvey, who responded to the toast "Cordial relations," said a very few words would comprise a compre hensively adequate response. "The relations between Great Brit ain and the United States, both be tween governments and peoples ought In he cordial, and they are," said Mr. Harvey. "They should con tinue to be cordial and they shall. What more need be aald. The toast has been proposed and the response has been given., Argument Is un necessary. The assertion is accepted, and the incident is closed " But having er dispoed of the subject of the to - Mr. Harvey pro ceeded to comment at some length on the present Industrial situation as compared with the period Immedi ately following the Napoleonic wars. The ambassador emphasized thaf. al though conditions now admittedly were bad, they "are .vastly better, both In fact and promise," than oh talned "15 long, dreadful years" fol lowing the Napoleonic wars. Spaklng of trade conditions and the exchange 'ate, the ambassador quoted a list of 'igures. He declared that 2(1,000 wouuld buy more food stuffs from the United States now than 26,000 would have bought a year ago. The chase of the pound sterling after the dollar had been a fascinating one, and, although the pace of the pound sterling had some what slackened last summer, Its stride had been resumed and the goal, parity, although hardly withl striking distance, nevertheless was In sight. "The day when It has been reached." the ambassador continued, "will Indeed be a happy day and worthy of celebration on both aid of the Atlantic. We want all the peoples of the world to make money, to makCMir money, If they can. by work, bVfenot by lylnr down or by pleading the baby act. Uncle Sam resembles the Deity In one respect, at any rate: He prefers to help those who a least try to help themselves. "The United States has become what has been called a creditor na tion. What of it? She was a debtor, and a very hard werklng debtor through many generations. It Isn't a crime to be a creditor. Is It? I ask you Englishmen; you ought to know! If It Is, beware the hereafter. "Great Britain has been, and as Sir George Paiah demonstrated the other day, after having provided for all he,r obligations, still Is far and away the greatest creditor of the world. That's right:, that as It should be. Tou sturdy, capable, far-seeing English men have fairly earned your wealth and are justly entitled to keep It or to use It aa you see fit. We quite humbly, but somewhat firmly, claim a like privilege." TRACK DOWN THIEVES MANY ACTS OF HEROISM Chicago. Nov. SO. Twelve thou sand Illinois men have been commis sioned as special constables In one of he most highly organized antt :ruelty societies In the United Statea. Formed four years ago as the de partment of constabulary of the Sta'te Society for Prevention of Cruelty and Apprehension of Horse and Automobile Thieves, the organi zation has extended into every county, and is now branching out in Indiana and Wisconsin under similar laws. There are already nearly a 'housand members In each of those states. Organized along semt-rallHary lines, the constabulary forms an adjunct to the regular paid peace officers, ready to assist In any emergency, or to take charge In the absence of the regular authorities. While the original purpose of the Movement, was to prevent cruelty and track horse and automobile thieves, the department now maintains auto mobile patrols, operates a special In telligence service tn ferret out vice, gambling, hootlep-ging and other of fenses, and furnishes men to keep order at fires and in other emergen ces. Among the cases brought by the constabulary, and now pending In Chicago courts, Is one In which a large teaming contractor is accused of underfeeding 600 horses. As a re sult of the society's work, according to Walter P. Stuart, general super intendent of constabulary, diseased, overworked and underfed horses have practically been eliminated from Chi cago. The constabulary has a troop in every police precinct in Chicago, sev eral In the outlying townships, and a troop In each downs tat e county, a total of 169 troops. The maximum strength of each troop Is one captain, four first lieu tenants, IS second lieutenants and 224 constables. In addition there Is an Inspector commanding each of the 20 divisions Into which the state has been divided, and a county super intendent of the society in each county. Lyacfc Will Meet Smith.
