By EDWARD W. PICKARD FOR the first time In history the farmers of all sections of the United Stntes are getting together to work for their mutual benefit. Wheat growers, corn growers, cotton plant ers and live sfbek raisers, numbering more than two millions, decided at the meeting of the American Institute of Co-operatives In Baton Rouge to create a nntionnl chamber of agri cultural cooperatives with headquar ters in Washington. This organization, which Is expected to be the strongest of Its kind In the world, will be ready to function nlmost Immediately and Its ollieers will represent the nation's farmers before congressional commit- ca. It stales emphatically that no part of the territory covered In the general treaty shall be ceded to a third power, wlfli:h seems to put an end to Bolivia's strong hopes of gain ing an outlet to the Pacific ocean.

In a reply to Mr. McNutt the President says he Is relying on the agreement between the United States and Greut Britain looking to complete equality iu the strength of their navies. He describes the agreement ns "the first step of the renewed con sideration of reduction of the exces sive world naval armament” nnd holds it to be “a forward step of the first Imperialism day” by the Communists, I importance," reiterating his position nnd they made demonstrations In many of the lnrge cities of Europe, though their activities were curbed by the authorities everywhere except In the Soviet republics. D ALE JACKSON and Forest O'Brine, flying the Curtlss-Rob- ertsop monoplane St. Louis Robin above St. Louis, Mo., established a record for sustained flight that may stand for a long time. They remained In the nlr 420 hours 21 minutes and 30 seconds, and then landed not be cause they or their engine was worn out, hut In order to attend the funeral of a friend, another aviator, who was that defense Is all that the United Stutes Is seeking.

This action follows closely on the formation of n committee of leaders of farmer co-operative groups for the purpose of organizing the producer- owned $20,0(10,000 grain marketing cor poration proposed by the new federal furrn board. The members of this committee are now conferring with tlielr respective groups nnd conduct ing u drive for membership. They meet again In Chicago August 20 nnd soon thereafter will be In Washington preparing for Incorporation of the big concern. William II. Settle, head of the Indiana Farm Bureau federation, is ch airman of the committee, lie was prominent In the “farmers’ revolt”' nt the Republican national convention tacts with another plane, 47 of which were for refueling, nnd they flew ap. proxlmately 25,200 miles, or about the distance around the world nt the equator. The two pilots earned more than $-12,500 by their exploit. The flight was especially a triumph for the mo tor, a six-cylinder aircooled radial type engine designed by Arthur Nutt. After being feted In St. Louis, Jack- son nnd O'Brine started on u tour of the country In their record-breaking plane, following about the same route taken by Col. Charles A. Lindbergh two years ngo. An endurance flight started nt Min neapolis ended In the crashing of the plane nnd the death of the pilots, Owen Ilaughlnnd nnd Capt. Preston lust summer. The new corporation I L. Crichton. They had been up 154 was officially named the Farmers’ Na tional Grain corporation. To the meeting In Baton Rouge, Chairman Legge of the federal farm board set forth his views of the prob lem of rehabilitating American agri culture, and his outline of the hoard's program was approved by the other members. Mr. Legge made It plain that the otily farmers’ organizations which will receive financial help from the board are those that are efficiently organized nnd properly administered within the provisions of the law. The kind of co-operative organization he hits In nilml is one that will exert a real Influence ns a stabilizing agency In the marketing of the products of the more than G.OOO.OOO farms, an or ganization that will exert, as he put It, "at least a measurable degree of control” over the flow of those prod ucts to the markets nnd an agency virtually in control of the condition under which the products of Ameri can farmers are sold. The board, he emphasized, never will buy or sell any commodity. President Hoover completed the membership of the farm board by naming Samuel R. McKelvle, former governor of Nebraska, to represent the wheat growers. Mr. McKelvle accepted the appointment with the understand ing lliut he may withdraw at the end of one year, lie is the owner of the Nebraska Farmer and was Indorsed by a large number of farm organiza tions, and Mr. Hoover chose him for the place nfter the different wheat groups were unable to unite upon a recommendation. hours. Lieut. Harold Bromley, Intend ing a nonstop flight from Tacoma, Wash., to Tokyo, came to grief as his monoplane slid down the runway and turned over on Its right wing sad was smashed. He promised to make an other start as soon os he CouM get another plane. Roger Q.

S EVENTEEN hundred convicts In Auburn prison, New Y’ork state. contemplated by President Hoover, nnd he has ordered a general staff survey of army expenditures. He ox peets a report with recommendations in time for the submission of an econ omy budget nt the next regular ses sion of congress. Branches of the military establishment, especially the cavalry and the const artillery, were alarmed and at once begun marshal ing arguments In their behalf. Out side the nrmy thq opinion was that the President’s move was a threat es pecially against the many “political” posts that are of no military value nnd are maintained at great expense through the Influence of congressmen nnd politicians of the districts or states In which they are located. Senator Bingham of Connecticut said: “At least 50 of the garrisons which the taxpayers are now called upon to maintain are not needed for national defense and have no military value. The army Is considering the establishment of three large divisions East, South nnd Far West—and the limitation of array posts to a few, well planned and chosen because of the proximity to divisional headquarters ns well ns their nvailubillty for train ing large units of the service together, would be not only economy but sound military practice. “Of course the Infantry school at Fort Benning, Ga„ the general service schools at Fort Leavenworth and sim ilar projects should be maintained, but there are forts nnd posts all over the country that should be abandoned, the property on which they are loeuted should be sold, and the proceeds ap plied elsewhere In the service.” There Is now pending before con gress a bill appropriating $1,000,000 for child hygiene, to be spent in the various states. The bill is very simi lar to the Sheppard-Towner bill that has been In operation for the past five years, but which was repealed iu 1927. This bill Is known as the New ton bill, named for Its author, the con gressman from Minnesota. Georgia has derived much benefit from the federal aid in the past, and it Is the desire of every citizen to see our mothers and babies continue to get the benefits of such work. So far as Is known there has never been any adverse criticism of this law or Its ad ministration In our state. Mothers and babies are deserving of the very best that we cun give them. Federal funds are appropriated to states for schools, highways, hogs and cattle, why not for the protection and pro longation of human lives? We need the help; God knows we need something when two mothers die In our good state every day In childbirth, where us a sacrifice one mother dies out of every 117 live births; I know and you know that \0e need help when every third baby born In Georgia Ib not at tended by a physician. With our six thousand midwives as the sole depen dence we know that they should be taught how to best attend a mother when above all times in her life she needs good attention. I know and you know that something should be done to save the liveB of babies when we are told by our State Board of Health that 20% of all deaths occur prior to five years of age. Judging by the past we know that Georgia's general assembly is not going to appropriate sixty thou sand dollars for this purpose, but we know that by federal aid’ this much money has been available for the past few years. Are mothers and babies any account anyhow? If you think so, tell your congressman about Georgia's need; II you don't know the need write the State Board cf Health and ask them. If you think mothers and babies are worthwhile and are entitled to care, trll your member of the legislature about what you think. It’s up to us, the citizens and taxpayers to tell out representatives our wishes and out desires Veal Cutlet Prlntanler as Prepared at the Atlanta Blltmore Hotel Recipe for this tasty and artistic hot weather dish, which Is nutritious Imt not unduly heating, furnished by the chef of the Atlanta Blltmore Hotel, showing how It Is prepared In that famous hostelry: Bone veal cutlet and saute In but ter.
