CHINA EVOLVES PLANS TO SOLVE OWN PROBLEMS .General Proposals Will Re Laid Before Arms Conference. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.—The Chinese delegates have a concrete proposal for the solution of China’s difficulties to lay before the armaments conference at the proper time. Dr. Wellington Koo. Chinese m.aister to Great Britain and one of China’s chief conference delegates, has announced. Details of the proposal have not been worked out Dr. Koo said, but the general principles upon which the plan will be based have been formulated. Briefly China will take her position as follows: The peace of ihe Far East depends upon the rehabilitation of China and the restoration of tranquility within the Chinese republic. Absolute political independence for China. No plan or proposal which seeks to internationalize China can be tolerated by the Chinese delegation. China must be left unfettered to work out Its own political, economic and financial salvation. To this end foreign control of railroads and means of access to Chinese resources must be removed. Relinquishment by Japan of claims of special interest in China and abandonment by other nations of the “sphere of interest’’ idea as far as China Is concerned. Mr. Koo explained that members of the Chinese delegation expected to move deliberately, even cautiously and will await an opportune moment for putting their ideas before the conference. No attempt will be made to monopolize the kconference sessions or ask for more than might be reasonably expected.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

We Bel ieve in Indianapolis FURNACES Each year there are produced in the city of Indianapolis enough warm-air furnaces to heat every home in a town of slightly more than 22,000 inhabitants, such as Lafayette or New Albany. Over 25,000 tons of iron and steel are used each year in these Indianapolis-made furnaces, and over 50,000 tons of coal are each winter shoveled into the furnaces that are made in this city in a single year. These furnaces are shipped all over the Northern states, as far East as Maine and as far West as Utah. They also are delivered in quantities in Kentucky, Tennessee and other Southern States. The seven Indianapolis manufacturers who devote all or part of their resources to furnace-building, annually produce more than 5000 furnaces, with a total value, when installed, of approximately $1,188,000.

METROPOLIS OF GEORGIA IS BUSY CITY (Continued From Page One.) | city. Collections are much better, and ! 1 the financial stringency has been relieved j to a fair degree. Governor Joseph A. j McCord of the Federal Reserve Bank, | says his reports show the improvements I as all the earmarks of permanency. Going into details, he says in volume of goods sales are larger than this time last year and textile manufacturing is on ,a full-time basis. He adds. NO Si DDEN BUSINESS REVIVAL EXPECTED. “The business public does not expect any sudden revival of prosperity nor a i revival of the' excess profits which were made in 1919 and the early part of 1920. j but those enterprises which are willing 1 ■ to conduct their business as economically ! as possible, and which are satisfied with ; fair profits, do most toward effecting a ! ] return to normalcy.” At the same time all well-informed | men in this section of the country apj predate that Georgia is not doing jusi tice to itself agriculturally and that, if i its farming establishment was bandied I properly, it would not be subject to any ; such severe trials as have been experienced in the last few years. Georgia is the largest State east of the Mississippi , and has some of the best land in the republic. Only about one-third of its area is under cultivation and that cultivation is not what it should be. WEAK POINTS IN AGRICULTURE. The weakness of the State agriculturally is in the tenant-farm system. There are ! too many large farms and too few small | farms. Owners of large farms turn over j portions of their holdings to renters. These j renters have no more Interest in the up- j keep of the properties than renters in j ! tenement structures in New York City have in the upkeep of the houses In which i | they dwell. | The renters never get rooted into the | j soil. They take a piece of land, and, I if favored with crops sufficient to pay ‘ | the rent and the incidental bills they! j contract in the making of the ereps, all i well and good. If they are not favored j by the weather or otherwise and are un- i { able to meet their obligations, they move ! j elsewhere. Having no direct interest in 1 the land, they rarely spend money to I nourish it with fertilizer. Not owning the farm buildings, they do not take much care of them. Being, as a rule, > I careless, their neglect results in deteriora- j tion of the property. What Is worst of 1 all, they exhaust the land through failure to return to It the nourishment withdrawn from the soil in the growing of the crops. SOLUTION TO I'ARM PROBLEM. it is going to take long and hard work jto br'-ak up this tenant-farm system. A start is oeing made, however. Earnest J men are preaching the gospel of breaking up the large farms Into small tracts i and disposing of them on terms of easy payment and under conditions that will make it necessary for the purchaser to | look after upkeep of the farm property and to the nourishment of the land. I Atlanta is intimately concerned In this movement. If success attends the effort, j a great and rich agricultural population, | to be supplied in large part by Atlanta. ♦rill be developed. Not only that, but j business throughout the State will be ! I stabilized as otherwise it would not be. • • • j Together with the effort to abate the tenant-farm system forward-looking men | are endeavoring to promote the dairy inI dustry throughout Georgia. They point out that nowhere else in the Republic is Will Take Off AH Excess Fat Do you know what there is a simple, ; harmless, effective remedy for over- : fatness that may be used safely and j seeretiy by any man or woman who is losing the slimness of youth? There is; ; and It is none other than the tablet form j of the now famous Marmola Prescription. ' known as Marmola Prescription Tablets i Vou can well expect to reduce steadily md easily without going through long i sieges of' tiresome exercise and starva- ! tion diet. Marmola Prescription Tablets | are sold by all druggists the world over : at one dollar for a ca<-e, or you can ! secure them direct from the Marmola t 0., I 4612 Woodward avenue, Detroit, Mich., ion receipt of price.— Advertisement.

ANGELINE BATES. Dell, author of Moon Calf, said, "The play reaches into one’s psychic ’innards’ like nothing 1 have ever seen except Shaw's Heartbreak House’—and twists them. It was a very poignant and beautiful experience, such as one has only a few times in a life time at the theater.” The play has a prelude with Indian characters which make the opening scene somewhat spectacular. Director Somnes is using his ingenuity in the settings. By a skillful arrangement of lighting devices he shows the same setting at six different times of the day. Tickets are on sale at the Kautz stationery store, 116 North Pennsylvania street.

day the farmer of Georgia goes on a hit-or-miss plan, and much too frequently it results in a miss. Buying by the farmer will be negligible thte fall ana winter. He has little money, despite the advance in cotton. But, while he has little money, he Is not going to suffer physically. Never wero there more foodstuffs on the farm. There Is a lot of corn. The farmer ftas not sold it because the price he could get was trifling. There Is plenty of cattle. He

has not sold cattle because they bring so little. It is so with nearly all products of the farm. The country people will have plenty to eat, despite the scarcity of cash and credit. Those farmers who have money are reluctant to purchase goods because prices appear so high, measured not only In money, but by their produce. PREWAR CONDITIONS AND PRESENT. . Samuel D. Jones, president of the Atlanta Stove Works, illustrates this as follows : “Before the war I was paying $5 a day to my lubor. During the war I paid SB. $9 and even $lO a day. Since then I have been able to get wages reduced a j little, but not much. Selling goods made j by men getting those high wages to men ; earning about $1 day, as is the rule on | the farm, does not fit. “Before the war I made a range for j which 1 received S3O. When it went j through the hands of the jobber, plus j freight charges and retailer's profit, it i got to the buyer at S6O. That’s about what he paid. “When, in the war period, labor and freight shot up, I couldn’t sell that range for less than SOO. Then when the jobber, plus freight charge and retailer’s profits were added, the rtove cost $125 to the purchaser. “Now, In 1019, when the farmer was getting forty cents a pound for his cotton, he was perfectly willing to pay the $125, for it equalled only about three hundred pounds of cotton. “I am selling the range now at S4O, but when it gets to the consumer it is put at SIOO, owing to high freight rates and higher charges generally. “The man on the farm says, T was able to buy that stove a few years ago for 3W pounds of cotton. Now, if cotton is at 12 cents, I have to pay 1,000 pounds of cotton for it, and if cotton is 20 cents a pound I have to pay 500 pounds of cotton for It. I can not do it.’ And he can not. “That’s what’s the matter with business. The return on farm products Is too low. We have made it impossible for the farmer to buy. Either his prices must come up or ours must come down.” BANKING CONDITIONS. Bankers say the financial situation In ! the country is not so troublesome. There ! have been failures of country banks, yes, j but not many, considering the great num- j her of such banks. Some failures were j due to misfortune and some to mis- j management. There probably will be some more that will have to close, but 1 they are unimportant and the effect is j discounted. This portion of the south Is not. out of the woods, but It Is nearly out. Every month shows betterment.—Copyright, 1921, by i’uhlic Ledger Company.
