HOUSE coNFEREEs
REJECT $3.50 WHEAT

The House conferees on the asricul-
tural bill have refused to accept the
Senate amendments for $3.50 wheat
and an appropriation Of $250,0o0, re-
spectively. for dehydration Of asricul-
tural products and prizes to stimulate
production.
The conferees finished their con-
sideration Of the amended bill last
night. The proposed increase from So
to $3.50 per bushel for wheat as mini
mum price guaranteed by the govern
ment was the biggest stumbling block.
The confsrees decided to report q dis
agreement.

gers plans to arrange for an early vote
in the House on the three disputed
provisions. The House has not yet

Landing of U. S. Men
at Wadivostok
Assures Russians

Landing Of American marines at
vladivostok Is expected to have a re-
assuring effect in Russia. With Ameri-
cans joining the British and Japanese
naval forces in protecting life and the
vast, stores Of war material belonging
to the allies at the Siberian port, the
enterprise is given a distinctly inter-
national character, which, it is believed
here, should quiet fears of the Russians
aroused by German suggestions that a
Japanese invasion has been begun.
Since the attitude OF the United States
10 credited with having stayed the pro-
posal for real Japanese Intervention in
Siberia to check German influence, par
tfcipation by Americans is counted
upon to emphasize the purely local
character Of an operation undertaken
to protect life and property where there

enforce order.
