Wheat Guarantee

Text OF the Measure Shows That Two
Dollar Price Is Not Contingent.

That the guarantee of two dol
lars a bushel for next years crop OF
wheat is absolute and not cOntin-
gent on the action of President Will
son or any board, is shown by the
text of the law. Notwithstanding the
statement contained in all summaries
printed, a rumOr persists to the effect
that the sections require simply sub
sequent action to put them in force.
This is incorrect as the following
paragraph from the law indicates:
