mild, was the fine spirit of cooperation
shown between the business men and
the farmers und the altogether sune
und buslness-liku view or the farm
problems In this slute. The confer
ence, he said, entirely destroyed the
popular idea that the farmers of the
state are d lsgru n t led and eager for
rudlcul action or anamoured with
Non-l'urtlsan League nostrums. Two
thirds of the delegates were dirt fur
me I'M, every county In the slate but
thitwfwere represented, but politics
were scarcely discussed, everyone,
farmers, business men and farm ex
perts, talked common sense.
No hasty conclusions were niudo, no
- panuoeus sought. Every department
of the. farm problem was carefully
thought, out and recommendations
made ' utter , serious consideration.
These reports when finally published,
the Speaker said, would be invaluable
to the agricultural welfare of this
stute and should be studied by til citi
zens Interested In the state's develop
ment. Prejudice) to Ovemmio
Mr. Chapman emphasized tho point
that there was prejudice among the
farmers against the city. This was
only to bo expected. Tho farmer, he
Said, Is tired of hot air, tired of pro
mises. But when the business men
'show, as thoy showed at Corvullls,
that this movement is not a new
scheme to "furm the farmer," but Is
an earnest, conscientious effort on the
purt of leading citizens in the com
munlty and the stute to put tho far
ttwv on his feet, restore that well bo
lug and prosperity which can only be
achieved when agriculture is prosper
OUB, this prejudice would soon he
overcome, and a greut stop toward the
re-establlshmcnt of cooperation and
fcood will between the man on the
land and the man In the city would
be attained. .

Mr, Jnmes II. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
thin terrible diftcaso left him helpless
and unable to work.
Ho finally decided, after years of
ceaseless Btudy, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac
cumulated Impurities, commonly call
ed uric ucid deposits, were dissolved
In the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body. j
"With this Idea In mind he consult
ed physlclnns, made experiments and
finally compounded a prescription
that quickly and completely banished
every sign and symptom of rheuma
tism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery, which
he called Ailenrhu, to others who
took It, with what might be culled
for those who desire to see the points
of Interest.
The meeting was very well attended
and all the speakers were heartily ap
plauded.
In Introducing the speaker of the
evening li, 10. Harder, president of the
Medford chamber spoke In part as
follows:
"I think It Is commonly known and
accepted as a fact that the farming
industry as a whole in the state of
Oregon Is none too profitable. This
, common knowledge Is whut has led
( the Oregon Agricultural college to
take the lead In holding at Corvullls
an agricultural economic and land
settlement conference for the purpose
of working out a progrum of farming
and land' settlement for the stute oi
Oregon.
'Those who attended thut confer
ence from Jackson county, some 1
in number, huve decided, with the aid
and assistance of the various chum
bers of commerce and the extension
service of the O. A. C, to hold a sim
ilar conference In Jackson county.
"Why in Jackson county? For this
reason:
A large purt of Jackson county
suitable for agriculture is embraced In
three large Irrigation districts, one of
which, the Medford district, most of
the land Is In cultivation but produc
ing only In purt such crops as will
create sufficient wealth to pay the
cost In form of tuxes for this Irrigation
and leave anything for the comfort
and enjoyment of the farmer.
"This upplles also to other Irrlga
tlon districts but they huve an uddl
tional problem In thut all their lund is
not In cultivation.
- "This gives us two problems of vital
Importance to solve; 1st Hotter
farming, und mnrketlng, such as will
be profitable and will enable tho stau
d n rd of living to be such as the far
mer is entitled to and not to drug
him down to tho standard of living of
the foreigners who come to our coun
try or the peasant class of Europe.
Second: Adlltlonal farmers 011 un
occupied land and the division of
large tracts of land Into small hold
lugs such us one man can farm in a
profitable way. Tho slogan should bo,
'The one man farm.'
"This conference can do much
towurd solving the first problem of
better farming und marketing, but a
large amount of work is necessary to
solve the second or the question of
lund settlement.
Tho Plan Adopted
Various plans were dlscussod at the
Corvullls conference and the plan
ndoptod wus:
"1st An economic survey of each
county, along the linos to be hold here
on tho 18th, 10th and 20th of this
month
2nd A listing of all uncultivated
lands under Irrigation and a listing of
large tracts, whether cultivated or not
suitable for subdivision and sale In
units of tho 'one man farm. These
lands must be npprnlsed at a fair
value such us will permit tho pur
chaser a degree of prosperity, you
and' I will not engage In the real
estate business but we, will assist in
getting thenew comor located in a
fair way to him. Tho real estate deal
ers of southern Oregon will make the
actual sales.
Where Oct the Purchaser
"Tho question naturally arises
where will we get the purchuser? This
I believe to be tho big question. And
one which wo cannot solve nlone.
Fortunately tho various railroad sys
tems reaching Oregon and the Pacific
northwest, together with tho Portland
und stato chambers of commerce are
spending und are going to continue to
expend large sums to attract the home
seeker as well as tho tourist to Ore
gon and the west. This sum has been
stated to be as much us $&00,000 for
the year 1024. Advertising on this
largo sculo will bring results. We
must be prepared to cooperate with
tho stato chamber in locating people
here. Our own auto camps will be
fertile fields In which to seek the
prospective settler und Interest him In
our locality. Pluns are being perfect
ed to make the most of this oppor
tunity. Tho tourlHt alone on pleasurt
bent will not be neglected but will be
encouraged to spend as long a time us
possible in our locality In order to
enjoy tho various beauties of nature
with which we are so well blessed.
The Industrial operations suitable
and such as can be made profitable
will not be overlooked but given every
encouragement
"You will agree with me that this Is
a rather large program, one that will
require considerable timo and oner
gy.
It Is not a few men's Job but Is n
Job big enough for all.
"That Is why yoti are nHked here
tonight to enlist your support nnd as
sistance In carrying out a program of
better nnd more profitable farming
and a land settlement plan that will
be for the benefit of all.1
that in one or two respects the Inter
view as reported Is not accurate."
PARIS, Feb. 7. (By the Associated
Press.) Prime Minister MacDonald of
Great Britain has written Premier
Poincare expressing regret for the in
cident caused by the Lloyd George in
terview, asserting the discovery of an
agreement at tho Paris peace confer
ence between Woodrow Wilson and
Premier Clemenceau regarding. the oc
cupation of the Rhineland, says a dis
patch to the semi-official Havas
agency from London this afternoon.
The letter points out that the fault is
not Mr. MacDonald's.
PARIS, Feb. 7. "If Lloyd George
will produce a secret agreement be
tween Wilson and me, I will pay the
reparation," said former Premier
Clemenceau today after reading the
text of the statements ascribed to
David Lloyd George concerning a se
cret pact between Clemenceau and
Woodrow Wilson regarding the occu
pation of the Rhine.'
Andre Tardieu's denial made during
the session of the chamber of depu
ties yesterday and amplified later and
approved by Clemenceau, says:
"The text that Mi. Wilson accepted
on April 20 at C p. m. in conversation
with M. Clemenceau and myself had
been In the hands of Mr. Lloyd George
as well as those of Mr. Wilson for fif
teen days. ., It was the same text that
Mr. Lloyd George, absent from Paris
on tho twentieth, accepted on mo
morning of tho 2L'nd after a last resist
ance. Tho clauses In question bocame
articles 428 to 432 of tho treaty of
Versailles. -
"If Mr. Wilson were still living his
denial would be added to that which 1

tho former British prime minister. The
national guarantees we obtained for
France on tho Rhino were acquired
only after months of terrible strug
gle, but it is our pride that wo obtain
ed them with the loyalty of our allies."

Sensation In London
IjONDON, Feb. 7. (By the Asso

tire making a sensation out of Mr.
..loyd George's statement in nn in
terview with tho Associated Press
Sunday last that an ugrement existed
between Mr. Wilson and M. Clemen
ceau, regarding the French occupa
tion of the nhlneland of which the
then English premier was unaware
until the French government sought
permission to publish the memoran
dum. Tho Evoning Standard In a double
column story refers to Mr. Lloyd
George's statements a "a disclosure
whlchi could not easily have been
made public during Mr. Wilson's life
timo."
The British foreign office, however,
which is preparing an explanation
throws cold water on the story by say
Ing the so-called secret agreement was
nothing more thnn a routine memo
rnndum which the French government
was seeking to publish in ordinary
course.
Officials expressed the belief that
Mr. Lloyd George's statement has bo
come greatly exaggerated since It was
first made to the Associated Press.
They point out that the documents to
which ho referred ns having been se
oret is only one of many memoran
dums exchanged among the big four
during the protracted negotiations re
garding the Rhineland. Each of the
allied premiers outlined his vlows on
tho Rhineland issue at the timo and
exchanged memoranda with their col
leagues. It was during this period that the
Ilrltlsh premier returned to London to
look after important domestic develop
