HARVARD STUDENTS

HOLD MANY POSITIONS TO DEFRAY EXPENSES ("By Associated Press) CAMBRIDGE. Mass.. Dec. 21. Half the Harvard University student body of about 6,000 is working its way through . college in whole or in part. A survey of student employment Just completed at the Graduate School supplemented by figures from the Student Employment Office shows that those obtaining regular and casual employment ranging from professional househunting to instruction in languages to an inmate of an insane hospital earned more than $11,000 toward the expenses of the academic year 191&-20. Nine hundred ninety-eight registered for work last year, 382 of whom obtained it. The number of positions available is always less than the number of seekers. Occupations in term time include that of waiters, chauffeurs, choremen, furnace tenders, hotel clerks, window eleaners, university guides and players In jazz orchestras. Some students spend Christmas holidays chopping wood in the forests of Maine. One man is reported working nights, sleeping five hours out of the twenty-four, and earning 50 a week. Tutoring is the most popular employment in term-time and in one form or another it is also remunerative in the summer recess. One man last summer earned $150 a month and expenses as supervisor of children's play. Another spent his mornings with a group of children at a popular resort on the Maine coast, and made $1,200 in two months. Several took ocean cruises as tutors, companions, or cooks. Another man picked up several weeks' expenses posing for an artist.

NORWAY PROHIBITS REDS' PROPAGANDA

(By Associated Press) CHRISTIANIA, Dec. 21. To stop the circulation of Russian Bolshevist propaganda, the Norwegian government has prohibited the importation of literature from Russia no matter in what language it is printed. The only exception is strictly scientific non-political literature. It has been charged here that for some time the Norwegian socialistic headquarters have been the center for the distribution to other countries of Russian soviet propaganda literature which is imported from Northern Russia by way of Northern Norwegian towns. This literature is printed in Moscow in different European languages and preaches civil war and revolution. It is re-exported by Norwegian agencies and through different channels it is smuggled into other countries. This action has caused unfriendly feelings toward Norway and in some instances Norwegian vessels and crews have encountered trouble in foreign ports.

figures; the largest in the world's experience. In our review of the volume of business done we must not forget that our dollars have appreciated; they are buying more per unit than for a long time. They stand for a laiger quantity of goods, both as to exports and imports, and more especially the latter. America isn't verging on bankruptcy. Far different. We have everything needed in plenty; an ocean of currency and the best banking system on the planet. Moreover there Is a desire to help, to build up and not to destroy. Great constructive forces are everywhere at work. If we have not arrived at the bottom of the decline we are pretty close to solid earth. We have a wonderful foundation on which to build. The present depression can be put temporary. We ourselves are in need of the product of loom and factory, in ever increasing quantity. We need more homes, more school buildings, more in fact of everything. There is work ahead for millions of willing hands. As soon as this brief and troublous period of readjustment passes, we shall presently start with a clean slate, on which America will once more write "Peace, Plenty and Nation-wide Prosperity." And this is our time to smile In anticipation. :

Move Cargo of Ship Ashore in Havana HAVANA, Cuba, Dec. 21 Preparations have been made to move the cargo of the United Fruit Line steamer San Pablo, which went ashore at the entrance to Havana harbor a week ago. The tug boat relief from Jamaica, has begun an examination of the ship's position taking soundings and making ready to pump out the water which had accumulated in her hold. It is said a considerable portion of her cargo has been damaged by water.

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. The outstanding fact in relation to our exports is that our farmers have enjoyed a better foreign trade than have our manufacturers. This is proven by figures from the department of commerce, covering all the products of the soil. The progressive effects of business reaction in this country is shown in the figures for imports in November. These were $23,000,000 below those of October, and $231,000,000 under the total for June, or a decline of 40 per cent. Had Europe been able to have continued exporting to this country, as during the earlier months of this year, the foreign exchange situation would have been in better shape, and our exports have been on a still more liberal basis. It is the ability of the foreigner to buy, and not his wants, which governs. Europe needs everything we can offer, practically. There is a great, hungry, consuming market on the other side, not merely for food products but for all classes of our raw material. The railroads need steel and locomotives; the farmer is suffering for the lack of farm machinery. There are millions needing our shoes and clothing, and even furniture. So much has been destroyed that there is scarcely a human want that would not be sup

plied, in part, from America, were tb.e needy free and able to buy. Buy Coton Liberally. While our November exports of cotton fell below those of November, 1919, they were 101,000 bales greater than October, and were the largest in any month since March. The wheat growers who are complaining so bitterly should take a look at cotton prices. These were off 50 per cent as compared with November, 1919, and are even lower now. Despite the flurries in "option wheat," exportable cash grain in November was not to exceed 25 per cent lower than a year ago. Our total exports in November figured $354,000,000 in excess of our im

ports, or more than one-tnivd or a

billion dollars. This compares with our November record excess of $125,000,000, before the world war. These figures' need no amplification; they are sufficiently clear. We Talk in Billions.

This being a billion dollar country

SOME BARBERRIES ARE OF HARMLESS VARIETY COLUMBUS, O.. Dec. 21. People in Ohio and other states have gained the impression from a recent opinion of Attorney-General John G. Price that all barberry plants are a menace, John Watson, Princeton, N. J., wrote yesterday to E. C. Cotton, chief of the state bureau of plant industry, asking Cotton to set the public aright Hundreds of persons, Watson declared, are digging up beautiful hedges of harmless varieties of barberry in the belief that they spread wheat rust. "The purple-leaf varieties of the barberry are the ones that are pests and should be destroyed," Mr. Cotton paid yesterday. "The varieties that act a3 host for the rust which plays havoc with wheat have clusters of berries and three-prong spines. The harmless barberries have individual berries and single spines."
