LUBIN' PLAN
FINDS FAVOR
Italians Enthusiastically
Greet His Scheme for a
Chamber of Agriculture
TO BE INTERNATIONAL
Californian Hopes 1t Will
Adjust Conditions to the
Benefit of the Farmers

ROME, Feb. 1o.-David Lubin OF
Sacramento, Cal, who has been staying
here for some months perfecting the
plans for the establishment of an IN
ternationa1 chamber OF agriculture.
said to-day:
I do not wish to bs interviewed, as anything
coming from, a single person will diminish the
Importance Of the scheme. which Is and must
remain the undertaking OF King victor EN-
manuel, who has OWNED the true needs OF the
people throughout the world. and who Will
become one OF the greatest sovereigns In MS
tory if the project is carried out successfully.
Lubin has had numerous interviews
with Minister of the Treasury Luzzau
and prominent economists and agr1-
culturists. In a report on the subject
Lubin says:
The purpose OF the International Chamber
of Agriculture Is not to create abnormal con-
dtions. but to bring about and maintain as
normal conditions which are now abnormal
No consumer should object to paying normal
prices even II some of them be higher than
those now prevalent If consumers understood
the reason for this they would not only con-
sent to pay normal prices, but would eagerly
desire it, in the end prices would become
equalized.
Asked if the end sought in the pro-
posed chamber was not already met Dy
the Department of Agriculture. Lubin
answered.:
No, because the thousands OF documents ana
facts from throughout the world are too nu-
nerous to be mastered by Minister OF Agrt-
culture, he having means at his control 10
establish the authenticity of the facts. his Ju-
risdiction being bounded by his own nation
and his powers being limited and prescribed
by law. He also has no power to influence
other nations For instance. in America the
Department OF Agriculture is unable to abol-
ish the evil tendencies OF trusts combines and
mergers which made American agriculturists
lose millions OF dollars last year. But an IN
feru chamber could do than this.
The press comments enthusiastically
on the project of King Victor Emmanuel
to establish an international chamber
of agriculture. The Capitale says:
We cannot refrain from manifesting our
pride as Italians in a fact which will make
the name of King Victor Emmanuel applaud
ed from the Italian frontier TO the country OF
George Washington.
