Chinese palates, whetted by 15,000,000 bush els of federal farm board wheat, may furnish American farcers with a new market larger than any they bare ever had. Tha National republic of China was "very anxious' to buy more. George P. Milnor. president of the Farmers' National Grsin corporation, said, but the farm board ''doesn't feel justified'' in granting China's request for credit terms eTen more liberal than of the first bargain last year. M. S. Briggs. representative of the grain corporation ' in fahangbai, re ported to Milnor that more than 2. C00.0CO Chinese have been converted perraancnlly from rice eaters to wheat consumers, and that an enor mous market had been created for Amrican grain fn the Yangtze valley. The 35.000.000 btuhels purchased by China last fall were used to par a: minion laborers to construct i,UW miles of drkes and levees along the Tsnrtze, Bris? "id. Thee people have lesrned." he wrote, "that they can work harder and longer on les wheat than on their customary rice." The Chinese nation! flood relief commission. whih created the new market, will be forced to halt noon "rtnless additional grain can be had, Briggs said, but it was working on an even more extensive prorram of con struction in the bore of buying more what on easy credit. Milnor aid the farm board hod f. 000.000 "tie up" in extending credit to China and it wonld ned additional funds before it could strike another bargain. A bill pendinr before congress would authorize the secretary of agri culture to use S40.000.000 in financing the exportation of wheat and cotton surpluses, but it may not be passed at this session. "China paid us $162,000 Interest charges Jane 30 on notes It sirned when it bought the wheat last fall." Milnor said. "They are meeting obli gations promptly and probably will continue to do so, but the other side was on three-year credit terms. They want five years to pay for tbe next purchase, if consummated.'

(UP- The Japanese occupation of Manchur ia military. rHtical nod financial has now reached the point where offi cials here view it as virtually com plete. Railroads, public utilities and banks all have come under what American officials regard as "effective control" by the Mancboukuo state, with the aid of Japanese "advisors." This shows that roughly 1200 miles of Manchurian railroads, controlled by the Chinese at the time of Ja pan's attack on Mukden last Septem ber IS, are now under Japanese dom ination. These lines are strategically placed so as to dominate the militarv situation In the provinces. They fur nish essential vfeeders" to the South Manchurian and other lines previous ly operated by tho Japanese. Jn addition, the map shows other changes which the Japanese have made to improve the strategic value of Manchurian railroads. For in stance, tracks of the line from Muk den to Sbanhaikwan, over which Chi nese troops irom imnn proper mipbt be sent into Manchuria, have been cut. Also ths line between Tuncliaochen and Ltacyuan have been cut, thus in terrupting throush traffic that might pass from Ishanbaikwan to Angankl on the Chinese Eastern railroad with out going through Mukden. On the other hand, the Japanese are constructing a line to fill a gap in the Kirin-Hueining railroad, which goes from Central Manchuria down ; into Japanese-controlled Korea. The Chinese government had strongly op posed completion of this section. The names and values of Chinese public utilities and banks taken over by the Mancboukuo authorities, with the aid of Japanese "advisors." are not available here. However, officials declare this control is "effective" and virtually complete. Most of the Manchurian banks and public utilities were owned complete Iy or in part and frequently were con trolled by municipalities or provin ces. In sneh cases, Japanese "ad visors" have been placed on the di rectorates or controlling staffs of the institutions. Decisions of these advis ors are said to be final. Another phase of the Manchurian Eroblem which is worrying officials ere is the recent effort of the Man chuoktio government to take over collection of customs. Tbe state department, although saying little now, has not weakened in Its opposition to Japan's campaign in Manchuria. It is not likely, how ever, that there will be any further diplomatic moves by the United States or the league of nations, until after the league's investigating commission makes its report. OLTMPIA. Wash.. July 7. OP) This city has washed its hands of the responsibility of caring for unenv ployed who have converged here and tnose contemplating joining their com rades, in an attempt to bring about a special legislative session for relief. The city council has passed a resolution that the city would not be responsible for either food or housing for new arrivals. Those already here, about forty out of tbe 600 who arrived on Independence day to seek an aud ience with the governor, are camped at the city auto camp and were with out food last night. The remainder of the group bad left for their homes. The council's action notwithstand ing .calls had been sent to Seattle and Tacoma for immediate reinforcements and reports from the unemployed here said the appeals would ba met with new caravans to the state capital to day and tomorrow. They have been asked to bring their own food. Russia Mobilizes To Harvest Crops MOSCOW. July 7.0P) Joseph Stalin, Russia's strong: mm and Vyacheslaff Molotoff. chairman of the councu ot peoples commissars, issued a joint decree today calling for mo bilization of the nation's agricultural resources to insure the success of tbe Harvest of all crops. Ordering an avoidance of the mis takes of last year resulting in larse losses of crops, the decree called for tne extension of the nifce work svs. tem in repayment for labor on col lective state farms. A scale of bonuses was set nn in volving increments in money and crops ior inose eiceeaing quotas, a reduc tion in wages for thow falling behind was provided.

THE EVIDENCE OF SCIENCE '.'This is to certify that In 75 repeated cool teats made of the leading cigarette brands . . . measuring the heat content of each cigarette in B.T.Vs. with ths Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter, it waa shown that: Oli Cold averages 112 B.T.l's. Cooler than Brsnd X Old Gold average 155 B.T.l's. Cooler than Brand Y Old Gold averages 156 B.T.l's. Cooler than Brand Z "To further vrrify Old Golds roointwi, the temperature (Tahrenheit) of the tmeke oj earh ciiarette brand was checked sod Old Gold's smoke was found to he definitely cooler than the smoke ot the other three brands." (Sljncd) KEW TORK TEf TINrt LABORATORIES G. Brintoa Jack, Jr., Dinctcr "Conclusive evidence that Old Gold gives a cooler smoke . . . cooler than any of the three other leading cigarette brands ... has been obtained through the most accurate heat-testing method known to Science," it has been announced by the New York Testing Laboratories, "Seventy-five repeated tests of the four big brands confirmed this finding," G. Brinton Jack, Jr., Director of the Laboratories, asserted. Mr. Jack emphatically stated that the tests were initiated by the Laboratories solely as a matter of scientific research, and entirely without the participation of cigarette manufacturers. "Accurate temperature records made of the smoke of each of the four cigarettes completed the proof that Old Gold is definitely cooler than the other brands," Mr. Jack asserted. "It is not our province in this report to speculate on the reasons for Old Gold's cooler smoking qualities," Mr. Jack stated. "But we are told that Old Gold is a cigarette of the finest and purest tobacco quality . . . without arti fkial flavoring. This alone might well account for its cool ness and mildness, since low grade tobacco, or tobacco containing oily flavorings, has a tendency to burn Into hot and irritating fumes." He continued: "These tests required eight months to complete. We purchased hundreds of cartons of the four leading brandi through regular retail channels, and each brand was rep resented in each of the 75 tests. We employed the Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter, recognized bv scientists throuehout the world as the most accurate method of measuring the heat given oil in the combustion of any organic substance." OLD GOLDS ARE PURE TOBACCO NO ARTIFICIAL FLAVORING
