president OF the Equity Cooperative
exchange. who returned from WASH
ington yesterday, where he conferred
with President Wilson, Herbert C.
Hoover and Secretary Houston, of the
department of agriculture-said today
these men agree that farmers should
be guaranteed a certain price for
their products.
Mr.. Anderson was one of commit
tee of seven appointed under the di-
rection of the Equity exchange at a
northwest at Fargo, N. D., to meet
with President Wilson, Mr.. Hoover
and Secretary Houston and the COM
mittee of agriculture of the house food
committee to discuss the food situa-
ton.
1.-THE government feels the necessity
Of encouraging the production Of ag-
ricultural products and believes this
can be best done by guaranteeing
prices to farmers" said Mr.. Anderson.
"All officials expressed themselves as
being opposed to speculation and es-
pecially the boarding of food products
by middlemen. We were given to un-
derstand that when any indication of
boarding. occurred the government
would step in and take possession OF
the food material.
1--WE have reason to believe that the
grain exchanges will be watched dur
ing the war and that the discrimina-
ton which they have practiced
against the farmers organizations
will not be tolerated"
While in Washington Mr.. Anderson
filed complaints with the federal trade
against the Minneapolis
chamber of commerce asking relief
from the campaign it is alleged the
chamber of commerce is conducting
against the Equity exchange.

Ohder the heightened schedules the
through passenger trains can take
care or the business now handled by
the local trains in addition to the
through business, thus releasing a
large amount of equipment, power and
crews for other purposes.
Facts in Figures.
When the government commences
TO move troops and supplies conse-
quent upon the calling out of the
100000 men to be drafted, summoning
the national guard into service and
the concentration of the regular army
with the establishment of military
cities throughout the country equip
ped with railroad facilities, the full
force Of what the movement will be
VIII be apparent to the people. Some
IDEA OF the equipment required by
the railroads to move these troops
may. be gained by the following facts:
To move $4,000 men, technically
known as a brigade, of field army
troops, requires a total of 1929 cars
made up into S66 trains with as many
locomotives. The 6,229 cars would be
divided into 2,115 passenger, 1856 bag
gage, 1,O55 box cars and 1899 stock
cars and IT'S fiat cars. Inasmuch as
the army plans to move 1000, 900 men
this would require more than twelve
times as much equipment and power
as shown above.
Cooperation Needed.
When this movement begins 1t will
be necessary that 1t be rushed as
rapidly as possible and crews, equip
ment and power must be placed at
the disposal of the government so
that no delay may ensue. This will
mean that only equipment that can
be spared from government use will
be devoted to commercial business.
There is no question but that the
people Of the country will cooperate
with the railroads in this re-arrange-
ment of service and necessary re-
arrangement of schedules, which.
while it will deprive the public of
some Of the present luxurious travel
it is only done under the stress of
necessity.

War NeUs as Told in Official
Statements Of Three Nations

I'VE took a few prisoners early this
morning as a result of patrol encount-
ers east of Laventie and a further
sixteen prisoners this afternoon in a
successful raid south of Wytschaete.
-Four German airplanes were
brought down yesterday in the air
fighting, FIVE others were driven down
down by our anti-aircraft guns. Four
of our airplanes are missing"
The French Statement.
Paris, June 1.-The official COM
munication issued last night reads:
According to supplementary re-
ports the German attacks last night
and this morning against the Plateaux
of Vauclerc and California were car
ried out by units belonging to two di-
visions. On the Vauclerc plateau the
Germans assaulted in very dense
waves; at certain points the enemy
infantry moved forward shoulder to
shoulder in the first attack and were
driven back in disorder by our fire:
THE second attack which was more
violent and accompanied by jets of
flame, enabled them to gain a footing
for a few moments in our advanced
elements, but they were beaten back
almost Immediately by an energetic
counter attack. All the attempts
against the west and central sections
of the California Plateau completely
failed.
1.-The same regiments. which had
covered themselves with glory in the
capture on May 4 and of Craonne
and the Vauclerc and California pla-
teaux gave new proof Of their admir-
able valor in defense of the positions
they had conquered.
FINALLY, in the northeast corner of
the plateau the enemy who renewed
his attempts in the morning and gain
ed a foothold in our trenches of the
first line, was driven out by a bril-
liant return offensive of our troops.
In this struggle the enemy suffered
very heavy losses. We maintained
completely all our positions and took
additional nriaoners"
