on the McHenry statements as well as

understanding that developed into bit

to have approached prospective EN-
ployer of McHenry and informed the
interested party concerning some facts
in connection with McHenry's record
IN the Far East.
McHenry was about to accept a pO'

not accept of his services after hear

Sound companies have been in favor
of this reduction all along" said Her
bert Jones, local agent for the former
company last evening. Our action in
placing the rates above what the farm
ers seemed to desire the first of the
season was taken only when it seemed
necessary after rival companies had
put up the storage rates. 1t is true we
have been subjected to a good deal Of
criticism on the outside for Our forIper
action and after thoroughly investi-
eating the situation we have conclud-
ed to reduce the rates to the point
where the grower will be satisfied"
That the reduction in storage ratss
was brought abeut mainly because OF
the action Of the grain insurance com
parties. who almost coincident with the
raise in storage rates announced re
duction of insurance rates on grain
stored in the fields is believed by
many persons. Certain it seems"
