I NEW DEBT DEAL. j The row over the collection of bad debts sown broadcast by American Amer-ican bankers for unsuspecting American bondholders during the Coolidge era, has now been settled. Neither the bankers nor a government-formed agency will attempt at-tempt to gather in the sadly shrunk debts. Instead a group of distinguished and Mnprejudiced citizens Will form a committee to do the job. It will be completely independent of the government and also of the bankers. bank-ers. A lot of hard organization work has been done on this and it looks as if it will be one of the outstanding outstand-ing achievements of the new deal. !

It was regarded as likely that formal negotiations would be deferred de-ferred until after the German election elec-tion and plebiscite on November 12, when the country will be asked to back the government's withdrawal. with-drawal. League officials thought It probable prob-able the October 26 meeting of the disarmament conference would adjourn ad-journ at once until after the ejection ejec-tion to permit more time for private pri-vate negotiations. Reports of German readiness to negotiate followed a United Press report from Rome that the German, Ger-man, British and French ambassadors ambas-sadors already have started informal in-formal conversations, whose tenor was not revealed. s OREM PARTY Ray Loveless was named as the Citizen's party candidate for president presi-dent of the Orem town board in the corning election at a meeting conducted at the Sharon school house Monday evening.

Able-bodied men who are drawing draw-ing aKotments should be willing to do something towards alleviating their own condition and not sit idly by and wait for everything to be thrown into their laps. When calls are made for workers on such projects as this one all of us should be willing to do our share. FAMOUS TRAIN : COMES TO S.

William Langer, North Dakota's two - fisted executive, today clamped down an unprecedented embargo em-bargo impounding the state's 60,000,000 bushels of wheat within its borders, in a dramatic dra-matic effort to force immediate federal action to help the farmer. As grain prices crashed downward down-ward in fear of Europe's rising war talk, Langer called upon his fellow-executives of agricultural states of the west to enact similar embargoes and force the federal government to act. Hopes To Spur Action The governor had no hope that by halting grain shipments out of North Dakota he would immediately immediate-ly raise the price of wheat. He launched the move in hope he could spur federal authorities to act quickly to relieve the economic distress of the farmer. The governor took his bold step on a day that saw grain prices continue con-tinue the fall which started last week and was halted on the Chicago Chica-go board of trade only by the automatic auto-matic action of the pegged minimum mini-mum prices established after last July's disastrous breaks. Prices have been demoralized for several days as a result of uncertainty un-certainty over the administration's dollar stabilization plans and the tense European situation. Langer pointed to the general -f-fattirre 6f asTicnrtural prices to -fol low the upward trend of retail commodities, and then as the representative rep-resentative of the state which has cradled many a startling economic theory, issued his proclamation. He promised full military action to enforce the" decree but doubted whether this jvould be necessary. P. G.

Elliott, manager mana-ger of the Provo division of the Home Owners Loan corporation. Up until last Friday there have been 301 applications received; the applications asking for $634,535 in relief from mortgages on homes, together with .sopQft. tax delinquencies. delinquen-cies. In every case on these 301 applications, the person or firm holding the mortgage has agreed to accept government bonds in exchange ex-change for the mortgage. The bonds carry a four per cent interest and have been selling at par. Thus far in the month that the Provo division has existed only 29 applications have been rejected. Rejections have come usually because be-cause of technical .inaccuracies in the application forms or because the mortgagee has added some special qualifications in his acceptance accept-ance terms, according to J. Harold Wilson, assistant in the office. Many people have been saved from being shunted out of their homes by the act, according to Mr. Elliott. The new government corporation cor-poration is lending financial aid which not only saves the homeowners home-owners but in many cases the mortgage holder from an embarrassing embar-rassing financial situation.
