.S2.2O WHEAT PRICE
!. NOT TO Be CHANGED
Price to Stand Despite Iso-
lated Protests, Says
Mr.. Hoover.
AIDS FARMER AND USER

| The price of s2.2O a bushel for wheat
| fixed by President Wilson will be main
| tained, it was made clear yesterday at
| the food administration, despite iso-
| lated protests from farming interests
| that the figure is too low. Virtually the
only objection of any consequence, 1t
| was said has arisen in North Dakota
| where the crop was unusually poor.
| North Dakota farmers are demanding
So bushel for their wheat and are
| asking for removal of the food admin
istrations regulations designed to pre-
vent speculation. They particularly OBJ
| ject to restrictions against elevators
storing grain more than thirty days.
| DR.. r. A. Pearson, assistant to the
Secretary of Agriculture. has just re-
turned from Il trip throughout the west
with a report that he found the wheat
price generally acceptable except in
communities where crops were far be-
| low normal
What It Means.
| The result of the price fixed, food ad-
mnistration officials say. is that the
| farmer will receive about 33 per cent
more a bushel than last year. On the
other hand. through arrangements
made for the elimination of speculation
and to control distribution the con-
sumer should they contend. obtain
or 20 per cent under the average of the
last four months.
Herbert Hoover, the food admins
TRAITOR, foresees some actual suffering
among farmers in North Dakota and
in localities In other states whatever
the price. The wheat failure in some
districts, he said, means that some
growers will lose money.
The plan generally" he said, "is
running smoothly except for the neces-
sarily expected local misunderstand-
| ings, and the food administration will
not depart one iota from the prices
determined on by the President for
government purchases. either now or
throughout the year. L believe that
the sense of support shown the gov
ernment in dealing with the difficulties
of war an ample guarantee that
wheat will flow regularly to our con-
Suming centers and to the allies.
Railroads Handling Grain.
The arrangements made by the rail-
roads permit their handling wheat more
rapidly this year than last So far the
roads have been able to take care of
all the movement and probably can
continue to do SO until a little later
in the fall
]. W. Sullivan. who represented the
American Federation of Labor on the
wheat price fixing committee. said yes
terday that if the price Of wheat came
up again for review labor would de-
mand a lower figure.

SMOTHER THEIR ANGER
IN DESIRE FOR PEACE
Wilson Note to Vatican, Though
Criticised, Gives Hope to
Germans.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press,
BERLIN, September 9, via London
September s.-The semi official North
German Gazette today devotes a full
page to a parallel reproduction of the
original and German texts of Presiden,
Wilson's reply to the Pope's peace note
and also to the publication of a com
parison between the German text and a
distorted French version, which the
newspaper says was circulated outside
of Germany by a French news agency
German newspaper readers have been
favored with no less than five differ
ent renderings of the Presidents note
They vary but slightly In phraseoloey
and generally agree textually in the
reproduction of the Presidents stric-
lures upon the German government
has made the outstanding feature of
the note.
Urging Calm Judgment.
In the discussion over the Presidents
reply Philip Scheidemann, the social
democratic leader. and Matthias Erzber-
ger, leader of the Catholic center party
are counseling calmer Judgment, and
urging that the perplexing work OF
bringing about peace should not be
handicapped by wave of indignation
which threatens to drown out sane dis
cussion of the note. These two leaders
are pleading for an unbiased perusal OF
| the essential features of President vii.
sons program.
Feeling over the supposed intention
of President Wilson to insist upon the
idislodgment of the Hohenzollern dy-
nasty continues to agitate the press
and non-political circles
1t is announced that the special COM
mission of seven members of the
| reichstag appointed for the purpose
will again confer with Chancello,
Michaelis regarding the German reply
to the Pope on September Is. The las,
| session OF the commission was on Au-
gust 25.

\ bill covering only three and half
lines. but which, if enacted, will un-
dOubtedlv stimulate enlistments in the
army and navy. has been introduced
by Representative NJ. G. Smith of
michigan. 1t provides that every pri-
waite in the army and every seaman in
the navy shah be paid $50 per month
from the date of his enlistment. That
amount is exactly twice what is paid
at the present time, but is So less than
the amount that Canada appropriates
for its soldiers. While men do not en-
list for the compensation Offered
alone, the payment of IA decent wage
has been found in Canada to be a rea
indueement to recruits aad Mr.. Smitl
believes that the same result would OBJ
tain in this country.

England. On March |. 1917 there
were $50 cases in cold storage,-less
