'llie league will not be able to tell us wliat pm't wc inns' play in the war, what men and money wc must, supply. The league miiy even liesilate about, establishing' a blockage against American goods. If we were in . the league, we should be expected to acquiesce in that arrangement as a mat ter of course. M Thai's one advantage of hav ing the voters overrule our foolish so-called "diplomats." This nation, lias no diplomat ic relations with Russia. Russians and Chinese liave been our friends in the past. .Russia has proved her friend ship practically. Hut because foolish boy bank ers in Wall Street bought bonds from, the czar and Kercnsky, when a baby-iuight have known better, and because Russia won't pay, our government re fuses to recognize the Russian government. We ought to be offering our services as peace makers. Having no diplomatic relations, with Russia we keep ' out. .- .

That- no.t (he railway seizure, caused the Russian out break. If Russia conquers China, which is entirely probable, and Communism is forced from China, there is no knowing what chaos may be produced in that country, not. suited to bol shevist experiment. Remember the Kellogg l,a,,' beautiful document, that was China both signed that Kellogg pael. Now watch how beauti fully it docs NOT work. To prevent wars between na tions, Mritaiu and the United Klales, with llie co-operation of other nations if possible, should make themselves so powerful in the air, and under water, that nations preparing to fight would obey orders when told not to light.

The Florida fruit emergency caused by the fruit fly is the first and only specific proposition to j gain the attention of the board. The Kloritlans were told to get nil slate agencies together on tho ques tion of relief for marketing and to reappear on Monday. Pending further consideration of the Florida situation, the board tackled again its problem of de termining a genera! policy for the uplift of agriculture and for handl ing the J 100. UUt).

No loans are to be made until (he usual avenues of creditthe- hanks and the govern ment's intermediate credit institu tions have been exhausted. He cause it must deal directly with co operative marketing agencies, tho board has sent word to American farmers io organize. Only about 2.QUO.0HU of the 6,000,000 farmers are. now in the cooperative associa tions of the various commodities. It appears likely that the Cali fornia grape industry will be among the first to set up a atablllzutlon corporation to take charge o( marketing the crop wiilch matures this fall. l.Ioyd Tenny, vice presi dent of the California VlricyuxdislH association, will appear before the board Tuesday lo present plans for the stabilisation corporation. The farm relief not contemplated !he -organization of these corpora tions by the cooperative marketing associations and producers as a means of centralizing marketing plans. After the formation of the stablllza) ion corporations, advisory councils are to be selected for each commodity. These councils will be the intermediaries with the farm board.. The Florida, citrus exchange pre sented the appeal of the fruit grow ers of that state for relief in mar keting such of the crop as Is spared from the fly pestilence. Marie I,. Wirt, president, and C. C. Com mander, general manager of t he exchange, appeared before , the hoard. They are now enlisting the milted mipport of other marketing agencies of the slate preparatory to going 'before the board again Monday.
