HOOVER HE Heed
ADVICE OF N
D. DELEGATION
Federal Food Administrator
Studies Wheat Grades
Sentiment.

st. Paul, Sept. 19.-The Mime
sofa railroad and warehouse COM
mission recommended suspension
OF the federal inspection rules as
to wheat grades yesterday in reply
to an inquiry from Food Admin
istrator Hoover of Washington,
and added its opinion that the
federal rules r unfair to the
farmers.
The commission in its reply,
said:
.'The Minnesota commission
heartily approves suspension of
federal grade rules on wheat.
'tThese rules resulted in the far.
mer getting less for his wheat
than 1t is worth. They cannot be
fairly applied by the local buyer
and causing serious dissatisfaction
among grain inspectors. receivers
and producers.
1.-THE suspension in all prob
ability will result in wheat NOV
ing more freely to market and
better prices to the farmers.
1--WE will restore substantially
the old inspection system, which
wa fair to all interested. The
change of grading rules, will not
~injurously affect the public, be-
cause only a small percentage of
the crop has been moved and that
has been bought by millers."

versant with the business, be contin"
ued. All of this was gone over with
the commission, and there was every
evidence that there was the strongest
possible desire on the part Of the
members of that body to cooperate
with the producers in every way pos
sible for the benefit of the public.
Plans for federal grades, however,
had been prepared, m these were
adopted, in order that they might be
observed In actual practice. The
kilograms quoted above indicate that
mission, fortified as it has been by the
correspondence with northwestern
people, which has been going on since
has convinced the commission that at
least some notifications of the grad
ing systems are advisable. The course
of the commission in calling for ex-
pressions Of opinion from persons on
on the subject, is in keeping with what
the North Dakota committee observed
as to the commissions wish to reach
the right decision on all Of the mat
tiers.
In relation to the seed wheat mat
ter, concerning which there has been
much discussion, reference is made to
some local correspondence.
On September 5, j. D. Bacon Of

interests operated an elevator just
north Of the city, wired Julius H.
Barnes Of the food administration In
Washington, asking If, under. the stor-
age regulations of the board, he would
be permitted to receive, clean and hold
for local farmers wheat intended for
seed. Mr.. Barnes replied as follows
on September 6.
please get a conception Of the
administration work as favoring
everything In the public interest. We
shall put no obstacle in the way of
sound preparation of seed stocks.
Have put no regulations on country
houses, except limiting storage to
thirty days, and this regulation we
will modify in h case Of seed stocks.
Information now going out to country
elevators to this effect"
Washington, Sept. 1S.-Congress-
mar Halvor Steenerson Of Minnesota,
today introduced a. resolution calling
on the president and the United States
food administration to inform con-
gress upon what authority of law a
maximum price has been fixed upon
the 1917 wheat crop. In an interview,
among other things, he said:
When the food control bill was
under discussion, 1t was claimed by
its advocates that 1t was not intended
to fix a maximum price for wheat Of
the 1917 crop; the act Of congress and
the order Of the president relate only
to purchases by the government and
contain no authority for fixing maxi
mum prices to private purchasers.
This power of the government to fix
prices II. would pay for wheat was sup
posed to curb speculation so as to
prevent exorbitant prices to the unit
mate No grade wheat is
not included in the government prices
and hence Chicken feed now brings
higher price in Minneapolis than No.
l northern and there is no authority
of law for deducting any commits
sion from the price fixed.
IT think congress and the people
should knox why the wheat raisers
should know why the wheat raisers
rye. barley, oats and other cereal
growers enjoy and nave the benefit of
an open competitive market.

Concord, N. c., Sept. 19.-Is it
physically possible for a woman to
shoot herself at the back of the left
ear with a pistol held in her right
hand?
Is 1t possible for a person to hold a
revolver so far away from the body
that a self-inficted shot would show
no races of powder?
Upon these questions depends the
final solution Of the strangely mys-
ferrous shooting Of the wealthy New
York and Chicago widow, Mrs. Maude
A.. King, at Blackwelder Spring, near
here, the night of August ga
tragedy hat has stirred the south as

shooting was accidental. The Chi
cago coroner, after the midnight ex-
animation and post norton in Green
land cemetery, Chicago, maintains
Mrs. King was murdered. as no
powder marks or burns were found
around the wound.
Governor Beckett protests that any
intimation from Chicago that politics
are hampering justice is "a gratuitous

his best sleuths down here to solve
