Pennsylvania Milers' State Association, the
outcome of a resolution adopted at the an

peal for legislation that will broaden mar
kets for American -four The letter says the
-four mills of this country have ample Ca

wheat produced here, and that the statistics
of our exports for the last fiscal year show
that the equivalent of nearly 20,0000O0 bar

shape of whole grain to be ground in for
eign mills and most of the product sold in
competitive markets against American -four.
1t is pointed out that the milling industry OF
this country is the greatest in the United
States in point of capital invested and value
of product. The letter continues 1--WE are
