" FAMINE MAY HIT" IMEN'S JOBS SOFT - !N BIGPROVINCE; DRIVER OF TRUCK U- MOItUIS J. HARRIS CHUNGKING, China, Dec. 27. (&) The high cost of living has become an acute problem in' the life of 25,000,000 or more persons in the west hnlf of Szechuen, China's largest province. Tho present poverty-stricken condition of tho territory, is attrib uted to taxes, poor crops, 'banditry nnd the silver slump. There are so many taxes that farmers have , lit tle left after paying them. in many sections of tho sur rounding country peasants are i confronted with possibilities of famine. Tho rice crop In Szechuen was less than, 50 per cent of normal, although It was better than usual in most provinces of China. To forestall actual starvation as long ns possible, soup kitchens have been opened in many towns and villages and they- aro kept moro or . less in constant use. The beggar population has man aged to treblo since tho arrival of cold weather nnd a muti with a prosperous appearnnco has no business on tho streets unless he has enough cupper coins to pass out among the crying, sometimes screaming mendicants who follow him. Foreign trade, like tho crops and the tnx-iidden farmers, has been hard hit. Business has fallen off heavily in the past six months nnd this once prosperous Yangtze river port has almost become u deserted clly. This particular phase of tho de- i press. on Is attributed moro to high I taxes than the low price of silver, j There aro taxes for unloading; cargo, taxes for moving goods from the dock to tho merchants' shelves, a dozen different kinds of military taxes, an even greater number of civil taxes. By tho timo n box of freight reaches its destination, if consigned to this city, It bears no less than 42 different tax stamps. Communism presents another problem. Discouraged over their present condition, tho peasants are turning to communists to show them a way out. of their difficul ties.

METROPOLITAN FARM LUXURIES HELD CAUSE OF ARGENTINA ILLS - i ' ! - Petition Asking General Re .trenchment Sent to Presi den t Prohibitive Taxes Sought. ; ' Hy T. S. Garrett. BURN OS AIRES (JP) To auto mobiles and luxuries is laid much of the blame for depression In Argentlnn. A petition citing extravagance on the farm and asking general retrenchment has been delivered to Provisional President Jose F I riburu by brokerage interests of the nation. The petition was introduced nt n stormy meeting in tho Bolsn de Comercio, tho principal stock and grain exchange, and was signed by half the gathering of 400. Prohibitive taxes on Imported automobiles, motion, picture nnd luxuries are advocated in the pe tition. The present general depression Is viewed as a correction of war time Inflation, and it is felt the situation must be met by lower ing production costs. To enable Argentina to compete in world markets, workers are urged to accept reduced wages, railroads to reduce rates and landowners to charge less rent. Automobile imports are particu larly blamed for Argentina 1930 foreign trade showing. The peti tion says Argentina's exports de clined 7.1 per cent this year, while imports dropped only per cent. Besides constituting a largo nem of the imports total, automobiles, it is contended, cause farmers to lose time from their work, to spend money which formerly was saved, and generally to raise the cost of living.
