JOINT MEETING REACHES MANY FARM PROBLEMS Bankers and Farmers Are Led by Governor to Harmony. MONEY WILL BE LENT Hundreds of Indiana bankers and farmers today returned to their homes from the meeting 1 held at the call of Governor Warren T. McCray yesterday afternoon with more confidence in one another and with an apparent determination to pul! through the present period of low prices for farm products. The meeting was attended by about one thousand men, almost equally divided between farmers and bankers. Nearly every banker present agreed to assist with money borrowed from the War Finance Corporation if necessary and a large number declared they would lend money with corn as security. BANKS APPEAL FOR FARMERS. An appeal for more assistance for the farmers from the banks and for lower Interest rates was made by Eugene C. Meyer, managing director of the War Finance Corporation. Mr. Meyer explained that through the War Finance Corporation the banks can make longer time loans than otherwise and he declared it is necessary for farmers to have longer loans. He complained of the extremely cautious attitude of some of the banks which are able to take care of the farmers and urged that they be more liberal. “Very few applications for money are coming to the War Finance Corporation from Indiana,” he said. “Are the farmers of Indiana being taken care of or is something left undone that should be done?” Mr. Meyer expressed the opinion that the appointment of the corn belt advisory committee, of which Governor McCray Is chairman, has had a favorable effect and has been largely responsible for the recent slight Increase In corn prices. BANK HELP NEEDED. “The cooperation of the local banks is needed,” Mr. Meyer said. “There is talk of red tape in securing money from the War Finance Corporation, but 1,000 banks have availed themselves of our offer. The number of people helped is far in excess of this number. We know our machinery is workable because it is working. “I think things at this time are at their worst and that they are going to get better. The money situation is improving and the excessive interest rates must be brought down. A banker should not figure 8 per cent or 10 per cent as a decent rate of interest to charge a farmer. The tendency of interest races Is downward.” Mr. Meyer explained that the War Finance Corporation has available $1,000,000 and that there is no limit to the amount that might be supplied to any State. BAYS BANKS ARE READY. John Ilhue. president of the Indiana Bankers' Association, expressed the willingness of bankers to cooperate with the farmers providing proper security could be obtained for the loans. He suggested the organization of county societies of farmers which could endorse the notes of farmers wishing to make loans. He said that In nearly every case where loans have been refused proper security is lacking. He denied that Indiana bankers are indifferent and that they are not appealing to the War Finance Corporation for loans. One farmer arose in the meeting and said he had been unable to secure a loan with 10.000 bushels of corn as security. E. T. Meredith of Dos Moines, former Secretary of Agriculture, who was one of the speakers at the meeting, demanded to know how many bankers in the audience were willing to lend money on 10,000 bushels of corn. Several hundred arose to their feet. Mr. Meredith in his talk declared that the farmers' problem is a mutual problem. He said that farmers are receiving $5,000,000,000 less for their crops this year than in previous years. TELL OF COTTON MEN. Carl Williams of Oklahoma -City told how the cotton growers In Oklahoma and Texas had formed cooperative associations and how these associations had obtained money directly from the War Finance Corporation. Governor McCray following this talk expressed the opinion that it would not be necessary to form any organizations around the barker* of the State. A conference of Governors of the efrn belt States has been called by Governor McCray to meet in Chicago Fridaj for the purpose of cooperating in meetings similar to the one 'held here. The States to be represented are Illinois, lowa, Ohio, Kansas. Nebraska, Oklahoma, Missouri. South Dakota, Minnesota, Michigau and Kentucky.

PAM IS JUST LIKE OTHER GIRLS As She Will Be Down in a Minute
BY WALTER D. HICKMAN. Pam is just like other girls. How do you know? You ask. Tell you all about it. The other evening I elected to have a little chat for publication with Miss Pamella Bradford, the dancer, with "The Right Girl,” which today Is in its final two performances for an Elks' benefit at English's. Pam made the hour at 6 o'clock. Promptly on the dot 1 asked the telephone operator at the switchboard for the Lincoln Hotel to “tell” Miss Pam that I was waiting for her down stairs. “I’ll be down In the lobby In five minutes,” she said. See, she Is just like other girls. Don't you remember when “calling" on your best girl on “date night” that she usually said, “I'll be down in n minute.” Y'ou know, now I ask you, you know what a minute is In a girl’s life. Slightly after the five minute dead line, Pam floated out of the elevator. She didn't ask me pardon for being late. She is original, very original, you know. “I was galloping over the stage practicing a toe dance this afternoon and 1 scraped part of the skin off of a toe,” she said. “I was putting on new skin. That's the reason I was late.” Not being a toe dancer myself, but knowing what a tack has done for me, I sympathized with Pam.. “Y'ou're going to have dinner ’with me tonight,” she said as if everything was settled. “And I am going to pay the bill. You are my guest for a while any way. No use trying to explain—we eat. I am starved to death. Now don't grab the check, 'cause it is mine.” I started to say something In the negative. “Y'ou know as well as I do that a meal isn't going to buy any sweet words in print from you,” she said. “I want honest reviews as well as you do. Dinner we are going to have." She moved toward the dinning room. I followed in a troubled state of mind. It was anew idea for me to be carted off to dinner with the feminine part of the party doing the honors. “A woman has a few rights,” she contended and I decided right then and there to check me hat aud coat. And in I went into dinner. When the orders were placed, she said: “I am starved. Eating doesn't ruin art. On the stage one has to be careful of eating, but why let a perfectly good steak interfere with art? No reason at all.” As' she toyed with her soup spoon she gasped, "Green olives. How I love them.” And then like a girl in the home of her parents she "speared” an olive. She then told me of her little two years on the stage. She started In the chorus until today her picture adorns the front of the theater where "The Right Girl" Is showing. “It means hard work to succeed on the stage,” she said. “I was brought up in a Quaker community. 1 was permitted to learn toe dancing. Not for stage appearance. Those days passed. Hard work. And here I am.” She was n member of the Boston company of "Take It From Me" and was with "Honey Dew.” Now Pam is coming into her own. She Is not satisfied, not contented but dreaming of the time when she can do more important things. She has been trained in the art or classical dancing and she believes that such dancing has a place on the musical comedy stage. She Is right. Y'ou agree with her when you see her on her toes come gliding In during the last few minutes of "The Right Girl" clad In a ballet costume. She spoke of Pavlowa and how she enjoyed seeing the great dancer recently in New York. She told- me of some new pretty frocks she has ordered for “The Right Girl.” Pam is one of those natural people of the stage who refuses to talk “Bos lonian” or put on high class manners She is real —really real, Just like any other girl. Y'ou don’t have to be a prima donna of the parlor to be sweet and unaffected, you can be on the stage aud be just as sweet and real. That's Pam. She even dreamed of her cottage In New Jersey by the side of the Atlantic, where she spends her summers and where she builds air castles, only to tear them down and longs to do something worth while during the following season on the stage. The finger bowls appeared. They were removed. The check for the dinner appeared with that unconcerned manner by which a carefully trained waiter slips you the glad news. A little hand shot out and covered the check.

Petition Asks Lawyer to Turn Over $12,000 A suit was filed in Superior Court, room 4, late yesterday by Harold D. Kramm, president of the Kramm Foundry Company, against John W. Claypool. asking judgment of $14,000. on the grounds that Claypool has in his possession $12,000 which was derived from the sale of real estate belonging to Kramm. The sale of the property was the result of an agreement between Mr. Kramm and his wife, who filed a suit for divorce in Circuit Court. The money was to be paid to Mrs. Kramm when she obtained her divorce. Her first petition for divorce was denied on Feb. 10. 1921.

OLD AGE, HiS MARK Oliver Wendell Holmes, in the charming discourses of “The Professor at the Breakfast Tab#,” refers to an unmistakable sign of old age. It Is three parallel lines between the brows Wa can defect the first traces of disease by signs just as plain. When a woman suffers from backache, nervous depression, dragging-down pains, and those ailments peculiar to women, it is plain that she needs a woman's medicine. What either medicine could she more wisely resort to than Lydia E. I’inkham’s Vegetable Compound, which for half a century has proved the natural restorative for these troubles?—Advertisement.
INDIANA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 30,1921.
NOW A STAR
MR. GEORGE SIDNEY. The fact that perserverance, combined with intelligent directive work, will enable one to reach a goal in time, Is well examplified in the case of George Sidney, the star of "Welcome Stranger" coming to English's Thursday night, who, after years of striving has finally landed in the front rank of American actors. Years of experience in all classes of theatrical work from burlesque to legitimate comedy, prepared the way of success when the time arrived for him to reach it. In this respect he is like Frank Bacon, who patiently worked for a life time to finally achieve his life’s ambition in “Llghtnin’ ” In which he has established himself as a star of the firstclass. George Sidney came from the lower enst side of New York. He Is not the only one of that district who has won fame. There is a club in New York known as the “Grand Street Boys," composed of men who were born or brought up in that neighborhood and among its members are men prominent in the judiciary, lawyers, bankers, merchants and
