Quite a number of farmers have destroyed
cotton stalks. It is probable
that many others wil do so at once 1
Considerable acreage has been plant
ed to wheat. Oats have been sow:. ^
more generally than heretofore. Wi
arc on the right road, the only trou :
ble being that we are not journeying
fast enough. i
It becomes more and more clearly
revealed that there will bo very little "
results from the disarmament con- ,
ft rencc. France clings to her big !
navy. The United States clings to *
her determination to build big submarines.
The fact is, not much may b<
expected from the widely heralded
meeting in Washington. The truth is,
if the world is not yet ready for a
league of nations, it is not yet ready '
to disarm* If the nations cannru ^
agree to a few general and openly
espoused principles, it is not likely 1
that an agreement to disarm will be '
reached.

rhe Nations' Council
of Literature and Art
New York, Nov. 19,?The American
\cudemy of Arts and Letters, the corlerstone
of whose new building was
aid today by Marshal Foch, was
ityled by Professor William Milligan
Sloane as "the nations council of
iterature and art." Hamlin Garland,
novelist and playwright, said it can
>e counted upon to support every
movement for elevating American1
deals of living, for preserving the
beauties of nature and for upholding
:he permanent standard of arts.
Marshal Foch appeared as the cen.
tral figure at the dedication ceremonies
after he had received the honjrary
degree of doctor of laws from
Columbia University. He figured, not
is a soldier, but as a delegate of the
French Academy, founded nearly 300
years ago.
The laying of the cornerstone today
brought to fruition the dreams of a
group of leaders of American art and
letters who laid the foundations of
the present academy in 1904 when
they formed the National Institute of
Arts and Letters. The present academy
is chartered by the federal government.
The new building will be a part of
x ^ VI 1 * < r
ii;v kiuuji at nroauway ana i;?oin
Street which includes the buildings of
the Hispanic, American Indian, Numismatic
and Geographical Societies
and the Spanish Church. It will
house a meeting: room for the 50
members of the academy, library, exhibition
room and executive offi< es.
It will be distinctive in its architectural
features.
Skin Diseases Due
To Waste Products
In The Blood
For Genuine Relief Your Blood
Must Be Purified.
For real, downright, harrassing discomfort,
very few disorders can approach socallcd
skin diseases, such as eczema, tetter,
boils, eruptions, scaly irritations and similar
skin troubles, notwithstanding the lavish use
of salves, lotions, washes and other treatments
applied externally to the irritated parts;
To correct the basic trouble?vcaste podnets?the
blood must be purified. Don't clog
your blood. Ju~t clean it out. Nature will do
the rest. Pure, rich, red blood nourishes the
body and fights off disease.
S. S. S., the standard blood purifier and
system builder, is the ideal remedy for skin
eruptions. The effect of S. S. S. is to rid the
system of the waste products which are causing
the trouble. For over SO years S. S. S.
h;;s proven to be of unusual merit. Begin

Six Baver Skins for
Freedom of City
Now York, Nov. 21.?"To on? free
dom of the city?C beaver skins."
Entries like this would have dottet
the debit side of the expense account:
of Foch, Diaz, Bentty, Jacques an<
others of the brilliant process'ion o:
old wold figures drawn to America ii
the wage of the world war, had the;
come about three centuries earlier.
And instead of riding at the head o
triumphal processions to the city hall
of vnrious municipalities, there to re
ceive the freedom of the city at th
hands of respectful mayor?, to the ac
companiment of bands and cheerini
throngs, they would have had to fil
petitions in court for their frecdor
and take oaths not to offend ngains
the lnw of the land.
Conferring of the freedom of a cit;
on a visitor has come to moan almos
precisely the opposite of what i
meant in the young days of Amer
ica and?earlier?in the mcdieve
days in Mcrrie England.
"The orgin of the custom of grant
ing the freedom of the city to alien
is virtually lost in antiquity," sai
Professor Harold McBain, instruct?
in municipal government at Columbi
University, commentng on the roun
of brilliant receptions that have kep
the mayors of New York and othe
cities almost constantly in tall hat
and frock coats in recent months.
"It appears, howevor, to have grow
directly out of the medieval organiza
tion of industry on a monopolistic ba
sis, and was originally an eeonomi
measure, pure and simple.
"In the old English borough i
amounted to a license to carry on bus
iness and, later, to vote. Without th
status of a freeman, conferred by th
grant, a man could not rise above th
class of employe.
The early Dutch settlers of Ne^
Amsterdam?now New York?set u
a similar status, called the Burghe
Right, in 1G48, as a protection agains
'Scotch Merchants and Petty Trad
ers who spoil trade and business b
underselling.' Persons not holding th
Burgher Right were prohibited fror
conducting business 'either wit
Christian or heathen.' The fee wa
six beaver skins.
"Freedom of the city was provide
for in the Dongan charter of 1686the
first English charter of New Yor
city, and its dispensation was entrust
ed to ye mayor or any three or mor
of ye aldermen. The fee by this tim
v/aa reckoned in British pounds in
stead of beaver skins?3 pounds, 1
shillings for the shopkeeper class an
1 pound, 4 shillings for handicrafts
men.
"Persons receiving the grant wer
required to take the oath, 'Obeysan
and Obedient Shall be bee to th
Mayor and Ministers of this Citty
and swore to take turns at the watel
pay theif'taxes, and warn the illayo
of 'Any Gatherins, Conventicles o
Conspiracies made a trains t the Kine
Peace.'
"It was in the latter part of th
eighteenth century that the practic
of bestowing gratuitous, honorar
freedoms of the city appeared.
"Early New York records recite th
bestowal of the freedom of the city o
New York on Captain Sir Peter Wat
ren for his exploits against th
French and to Generals Shirlej
Monckton and Gage.
"Later there is an entry showin
the honor was bestowed on three sail
ors of a vessel lying in New York har
bor, in recognition of their services i;
helping extinguish a disastrous fire.
The formality had nearly died ou
when the termination of the wa
brought a revival, designed to hono
noted visitors. Professor McBain sai
he new of no records showing the ori
gin of the practice of delivering th
"keys of the city" to persons receiv
ing the honor.

Appeal to J. D. Rockefeller
Manila, P. I.f Nov. 20.?The Philippine
Islands Anti-Tubeculosis Society
has appealed to John D. Rockej
feller, Jr., who is now at Peking,
i China, tq assist in the work of stampj
ing out the tuberculosis which it is
f estimated causes the death of 30,000
1 Filipinos every year.
P Mr. Rockefeller in a reply cable,
stated that he had referred the socif
ety'a request to Dr. Victor G. Heiser,
representative of the Rockefller Foun
lation. and former director of health
in the Philippine Islands, who would
return to Manila from Peking within
a short time, for the purpose of conducting
an investigation of health
f "conditions throughout the Philippines.
According to the records of the Anti.uberculosis
Society approximately
k >00,000 people in the Philippines are
suffering from tuberculosis at the
t present time. Officials of the society
expressed the belief that the Insular
?overnment would- make an appropriition
wth. whch to start a health cam>aign,
pointing out In support of this
belief that Major General Leonard
( Wood who has frequently staled in
5 public speeches that the government
not only could not economize in ext:
pqnditures for sanitation, but that it
would bp compelled to spend more
. money each year for that purpose. Soc
iety officials said it was the belief
that substantial aid could be expected
r from the Rockefeller Foundation in
:he fight against tuberculosis, provided
the government made the start in
t in intensive campaign against the disease.
