SHANGHAI. (Correspondence of
the Associated Press.) A definite
trove, to brlna; about peace between
the northern and southern factions in
China was made in Aucust. when the
Pekin foternmtnt appointed Wans;
Tl-tana. a former minister of finance,
ot head a northern peace deification
to take tip astain with the southern
representatiTes the negotiations that
were broken off last s prime. At that
ttmethe north rejected eight demands
made by the south and so brought to
an end the Shanrhal peace conference.
The eiKht demands of the Canton
government comprised the following:
Abrogate all secret treaties with
Japan.
f'unish the officials who negotiated
the secret Japanese treaties.
Dismiss military and civil govern
ors of provinces wbo had violated
certain laws.
iMsband the northern defense anr.y.
Rescind the mandate of 117. by
which the old parliament thebody
that removed to Canton and there set
up the southern government was de
clared to be dismissed.
Recognise President Hsu Shih
cbang only as provisional president.
What, if any. modifications the
Canton government has expressed a
willingness to make in Ita demands
have not been clearly defined.
Late in August it was learned that
private negotiations to withdraw
troops had been inprogress between
military leaders of the north .and
south who apparently sought to hold
a peace conference of their own at
Nank'ng. Since the Pekin govern
ment haa appointed a new peace dele
gate, the opinion has been advanced
that this military conference may not
be held.
The great masses of people In
China have scant concern with the
strife which has been disrupting the
country.
Whatever division might have ex
isted between the masses of people In
the north and the south, was swept
away by announcement from Paris
that the citv of Tilnrtao and the
rights formerly held by the Germans
in the province of Shantung had been
awarded to the Japanese. The whole
country, north and south, saw that no
action to avert the consequences of
the Shantung decision could be taken
with China divided against itself and

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. Organiza

Humboldt county, California, to con
serve redwoods, the finest trees in
the world, is the object of a strong
campaign being carried forward by
the "Save the Redwoods league." Mil
lions of years ago redwood trees cov

America. In tUis geologic age they
are restricted to California and a
fringe of southern Oregon.
To preserve these magnificent
trees for posterity, to see to it that
they are not' destroyed by fire and
lumbermen's axe. the "Save the Red
woods league" have cqme into exist
ence. Secretary or the Interior
Franklin K. Lane is its president.
tfnd among its officers and sponsors
are Congressman William Kent, Di
rector of National Parks Stephen T.
Mather. President R. L. Wilbur of
Stanford university and William E.
Colby, president of the Sierra club.
Actively in charge of its campaign is
Professor John C. II err lam of the
University of California, chairman of
the leagues executive committee.
There are two kinds of redwood

To finance its plan of saving these

errlam said lumbermen were aiding
he league in a liberal and co-opera-
ve spirit.
Efforts are at present being con
centrated upon some liO.000 acres of
giant redwood along the south rorit
of the Eel river and near Dyerville,
Humboldt county, at the northern
boundary of California. Already
lumbering has attacked this stand of
virgin timber, so that quick action is
necessary. The state highway to
Eureka runs through the middle of
the grove, and it is hoped a state
park can be created along this road,
with a national park t oeach side
beyond.
For the preservation of the timber
along the highway $60,000 already
has been subscribed $30,000 by the
supervisors of Humboldt county and
$15,000 each by William Kent and
Stephen T. Mather. The number of
trees saved for the proposed parks
will depend upon the amount of
money obtained and upon action by
the state and national governments.
Addressing a Sierra club gathering
recently its president, Mr. Colby,
said :
"To allow this wonderful stand of
redwood, the finest trees in the
world, to be destroyed would be noth
ing less than a sacrilege and a crime.
They are the tallest trees anywhere.
The late John Muir. the famous nat
uralist, made a special voyage to
Australia to verify this. He found
the eucalyptus grew to 820 feet, but
our own California redwood topped
350 feet."

Government Endeavoring: to Relieve
High Cost of Living: by Stabi
lizing Rate of Exchange.
SANTIAGO, Chile, Aug. 28. tCorre
spondence of the Associated Press.)
The Chilean government is endeavor
ing to relieve the pressure of the high
cost of living by stabilizing the rate
of exchange. It has proposed the
adoption of a gold standard and that
Chilean currency should be made con
veitible at sight. This would be at
tended by the organization of a cen
tral bank to act in the same way as
the federal reserve bank of the United
States. It is argued that thus would
put the economical resources of the
country on a steady financial basis
and eliminate the private specula
tion in gold which is felt to have
much Influence on the present ex
change rates.
The rise of sterling exchange is at
tributed in part to an adverse balance
of trade against Chile in 1918 to the
amount of about $7,000,000. This dif
ference has to be paid in gold, conse
quently the pese declines in value.
Chileans have been affected by the
increased cost of living like the rest
of the world and there have been pub
lic demonstrations, meetings of labor
men and congressional debates on re
strictions of exports of foodstuffs and
upon providing work for the unem
ployed. Nitrate, which is the main stay of
Chilean industry, has been out of the
market for several months owing to
the slump in the demand resulting
from the ending of the war and the
scarcity of freight steamers. This
threw thousands of workers out of
employment. To meet this labor sit
uation the government proposed
measures providing for the expendi
ture of several million dollars in con
struction of highways and railways.

employes. The meeting was presided
over by General Francisco Murguia,
chief of military operations m tne re
gion, and is said to have resulted in
an amicable agreement calling for a
prosecution of bandits.
