LANE ASKS MORE TRADES TAUGHT INU.UGH00LS Development of Land for Soldiers, Americanization of Foreign Born and Education . Big Problems. WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. Development of arid, swamp and cut-over lands to provide farms for returning ! cldiers, and improvement of the public school system to provide for Americanization of forelen-born citizens, and the education cf illiterate mounlain whit populations and negroes, nrc two big reconstruction problems, Secretary of the Interior Lane says in his annual report made public today. Schools, he added, should lay more emphasis on teaching trades. Of the immediate importance is the proposal that the government systematically go about the work of providing work for soldiers on existing irripatlon projects In the west. Later, Secretary Lane suggested, more extensive reclamation of waste land phould be put under way, and small farms sold to soldiers by the government on long-term payment plan. Referring to the returning soldiers, he said: "Being Americans and being young, they will not ask or expect pensions. They will want work. They will want, if possible, a chance for a home of their own." Protect Labor Market. Hy systematic government development of Idle lands, said Mr. Lane, there will be provided immediate Jobs for these men, labor markets will be protected against possible collapse by being swamped with a surplus of labor, re-established Industries will be supplied with an immediate demand for their products, the movement of population to cities will be checked, many "best proven Americans" will be affixed permanently to ' agricultural occupations, and great areas of land now neglocted and valueless will be brought into use. "As an immediate program," said the Secretary, "we should first offer an opportunity upon our present irrigation projects for all who wish work at clearing and leveling the land not now cultivated, but for which water is available, or to which water can be brought under the present irrigation system, and that such trncts shall be developed under an appropriate landtrttlement plan. This we can do at cnce and meet whatever labor problem may be immediate. C "As a second step I would urge an "8 impropriation for one or more of the largest Irrigation schemes for which surveys are in an advanced state. Concurrently it would seem to me wise to undertake the draining of the most promising projects Government owned land preferred, but, if privately owned, the land to be bought at an Appraisement made by the Farm Loan Hoard and subject to the approval of the Department of Agriculture. GERMANS MUST PAY ENGLAND'S WAR COST LONDON, Dec. 12 Germany must pay England $38,400,000,000, Premier Lloyd George announced last night. "We propose to demand Great Britain's war cost $38,400,000,000 from Germany," he declared. He said the war had cost Germany leas than it had cost Great. Britain. Tho German bill, he believed, was 6,(100,000,000 or 7,000,000,000 pounds ($37,600,000,000). He contended it was indefensive that the person who was in the wrong and had lost should pay less than the person who was declared to be in the right and had won. The premier said a British Imperial Commission had been appointed to Investigate the capacity of Germany (to pay) and that he had received its report. CUT THIS OUT

Lid on Sugar Bowl But Conservation

is Lifted Now is Still in Fashion

The sugar bowl is again in fashion at public eating houses.And oh, boy, ain't it a grand and glorious feeling to know that you do not have to consider long and seriously as to whether you will have that spoonful of sugar in your coffee or on your cereal. ' You qan have all the sugar you want now, but, restaurant and hotel managers say that there will never be an opportunity again to waste sugar as it has been wasted in the past One restaurant manager said he intended to place the sugar bowl on the table, let the diner take all he wants, and ' then f take i-the sugar . bowl off again. "People add unnecessary ingredlants to their food, for the mere sake of amusement," he explained. The manager of a hotel dining room has a similar plan. For the sake of conservation, he said, pointing out that food is still as badly needed as it was in war times. There was a time when no hotel manager had conservation in his dictionary, but the war has changed things. A thing which has been commented upon before. Anyway, point out the managers of the eating houses, people don't want as much sugar as they did before Hoover became a household word. They are not taking advantage of the "open sugar bowl." Conservation is a habit that is not so easily acquired, tut which sticks by one, it has been learned from observation. The housewife, probably is most greatly relieved by the lifting of the sugar ban. . It has been difficult to

prepare a satisfactory meal with a i

limited amount of sugar, but the house wives have done very w-ell, and have not taken any noticeable advantage of the fact that they can order just as much sugar as they like. . The sugar substitutes, corn syrups and molasses are expected to continue in popularity even though there is opportunity to get any quantity of sugar. Confectioners are relieved of a great deal of worry as they are able' to get out their supply of Christmas candy without worrying about the sugar. The demand for candy has been even greater than usual they say.
