The entire marketing situation has
so changed since the September joint
conference as to necessitate an entire
alteration in the plans Of price stabi-
lization. The current peace talk has
alarmed the holders of corn, and there
has been a price decline of from 20
cents to 40 cents per bushel. The fact
that the accumulations of low priced
corn in the Argentine and South Afri-
ca would, upon the advent of peace
and liberated shipping, become avail
able to the European market has Gre
ated a great deal of apprehension on
the part of corn holders. This decline
has spread fear among swine growers
that a similar reduction in the prices
of hogs would naturally follow. More
over, the lower range of corn prices
would, II Incorporated In 13-to-l ra-
ito, obviously result in continuously
falling price for live hogs. In view
of these changed conditions many
swine producers anticipated lower
prizes and as a result rushed their
hogs to market in large numbers, and
this overshipment has added to and
aggravated the decline.
The information Of the Department
of Agriculture indicates that the sup
ply Of hogs has increased about 8 per
cent, while the highest unofficial estl-
mate does not exceed 10 per cent in
creased production over last year. On
the other hand, the arrival Of hogs
during the last three weeks in the
seven great markets has been p per
cent. more than last year, during the
corresponding period, demonstrating
the unusually heavy marketing of the
available supply. In the face of the
excessive receipts some packers have
not maintained the price agreed last
month. On the other hand, many
of the packers have paid over the
price offered to them In an endeavor
to maintain the agreed price. The re-
suit in any event has been a failure
to maintain the October price basis
determined upon at the September con-
ference and undertaken by the pack
ers. Another factor contributing 10
the break In prices during the month
has been the influenza epidemic; II
has sharply curtailed consumption Of
pork products and temporarily de-
creased the labor staff of the packers
about 25 per cent,
The exports of 130,000,000 pounds
of pork products for October com
pared with about 100000 pounds
in October year ago, and the
export orders placeable by the Food
Administration for November, amount
to 170,0O0,000 pounds as contrast
ed with the lesser exports OF
9S000,000 for November, 1917. The
increased demands Of the allies are
continuing, and are In themselves
proof of the necessity for the large
production for which the Food Admin
istration asked. The increase in ex-
port demands appears to be amply
sufficient to take up the increase in
hog production, but unfavorable mar
ket conditions existing in October af
ford no fair index Of the aggregate
supply and demand.

nous shortage in fats in the Central
Empires and neutral countries would
Immediately upon peace result In ad-
ditional demands for pork products
which, on top of the heavy shipments
to the Allies, would tend materially
to increase the American exports, in
asmuch as no considerable reservoir of
supplies exists outside Of the United
States. 1t seems probable that the
present prospective supplies would be
Inadequate to meet this world demand
with the return to peace. So far as 1t
is possible to interpret this fact, 1t APP
pears that there should be even a
stronger demand for pork products
after the war, and therefore any alarm
of hog producers as to the effect of
peace is unwarranted by the outlook.
In the light Of these circumstances
It Is the conclusion of the conference
that attempts to hold the price Of hogs
to the price Of corn may work out to
the disadvantage of pork producers.
1t is the conclusion that any interpre-
tation of the formula should be a
broad gagged policy applied over a
long period 1t is the opinion of the
conference that in substitution of the
previous plans of sterilization the
Live Stock Subcommittee Of the Agri-
cultural Advisory Board, together with
the specially invited swine representa-
tives, should accept the invitation of
the Food Administration to Join with
the Administration and the packers in
determining the prices at which con-
trolled export orders are to be placed.
This will be regularly done. The in
tiuence of these orders will be directed
to the maintenance of the common OBJ
iect-namely, the sterilization of the
price of live hogs so as to secure as far
rs it is possible fair returns to the
producer and the Insurance of an ade.
quate future supply.
Ihese foreign orders are placed
upon the basis of cost of hogs to the
packers.

Committee, representing the As to so

AFRIEND OF TIE NAVY

The late Representative Tall oft OF
MARYLAND was. and had long been, a
warm and active friend of the Navy
He had stood for years among those
members of the House with the proper
appreciation OF what the Navy meant
in our government equation, and ready
at all times TO give 1t the proper sup
port. He never failed TO exert him
self in the cause of an adequate sea
power for this country. 1t was con-
spicuous service, and the most impor-
tant he was able to render during his
long House membership. And he will
be long remembered for II.
One looks back with amazement
now at the opposition men like Mr..
Talbot encountered in the House in
their efforts TO advance the interests
of the Navy II seems almost past be-
lief that what was so clear a duty and
so earnestly demanded should have
been so long denied.
But, though often defeated, they
never despaired. They counted on ul-
innate success, and worked for ii I'M
fiaggingly.
Success finally came, through not in
fullest measure until the world war
had silenced those who had resisted
and retarded the Navy's growth
1t sometimes happens that public
servant does not live to see the fruits
OF his intelligent labors. He dies be-
fore they ripen, and with a sense of
failure.
Mr.. Talbot had better fortune. He
lived to see the Navy become much of
what he had desired and strived for,
and on the way TO become the most
powerful equipment of the kind in the
world.
IAN incompatible Navy"-the Presi-
dents phrase-is now the general de-
mand; and we shall get 1t. The need
OF II all see. No postwar appropria
tions will be better approved by the
people than those for the adequate
protection of our long coast-llnes and
growing sea-traffic. We shall be car
rying heavy war debt, and be charg-
ed with other heavy obligations, but
the Navy will be generally provided
for without protest. 1t will not be
necessary again for anybody to make
the fight in Congress that the friends
of the Navy had to make during the
score of years preceding our entrance
into the present war.
That fight was CALAMITY made. and
won. upon its merits. and the victors
are entitled to the highest praise

ones
Senator Duvall has been prominent
ly active in our governmental func-
lions for several years-long enough
for us to know him from the ground
up. He has been one of the strongest
representatives we have had in our
Legislature for many years. From the
very first he has shown himself TO be
a fighter who never acknowledges de-
feat. Like John Paul Jones. when the
enemy thinks he has whipped him,
Duvall comes up again smiling, show
ing that he has just begun TO fight
need only call attention 10 the splen-
did fight he put up against the Annex
alton bill, TO show the kind of stun he
is made of When in 1916 the measure
first came before the Senate. he threw
himself into the battle with an energy
which nothing could withstand, and
in spite of the great odds which SEEM
ed to portend defeat, he snatched a
signal victory from what was thought
TO be an inevitable defeat. That he did
not succeed when the matter again
came to the front this year was no
fault of his own. The fates were
against him from the beginning. The
Senate was almost equally divided,
there being Is Republicans and IA
Democrats. The Republican platform
had endorsed the Baltimore scheme.
and our Senator could not induce all
the Democrats to follow him. Hence
his failure to win the second time.
In various other ways Mr.. Duvall
has shown the sterling metal of which
he is made. When once he becomes
convinced of the duty he owes to the
public or to his constituents, he takes
his stand ana goes in to win and he
generally does win. He is the kind of
man we should send to Washington
to support Mr. Wilson. There never
will be any doubt as to his loyalty
either to his constituents or to the
great cause of democracy whose fate
is now in the balance. There is not
single reason why any good citizen,
whether he be Democrat. Republican
or Independent, should not vote for
him.

The Congressional Elections. Why
senator DuYaIl Should Be Elected.

TO the Editor Of The EUening Capital:
Sir: The time is fast approaching
when the voters of the Fifth Congress
sional District will be called upon TO
choose the man who is TO be their
representative in the Sixty-sixth Con-
gress. The choice viii be between
Sydney e. Mudd, the present repre-
sentative, and our own State Senator,
Frank NJ Duvall The Mudds, father
and son, have been representing this
district for many years. and to the
judicious-minded il would seem that
the position has been in the Mudd
family long enough and they should
step aside for some one else.
But there is much stronger rea-
son why we should make a change
Our country is now and will be, for
some time to come. passing through
one of the most momentous crises OF
its existence. We have been driven into
this world-war against our will, and
we are in il TO help TO determine
whether our own form of Government
where the people decide how they shall
be governed and elect their own ruler
or whether an autocrat, whose sole
right TO the leadership is based on the
so-called divine right of kings, shall
Cypress them for his own selfish ends
Considering the tremendous stakes we
are playing for, we can not afford to
make any mistakes. Every step in
our efforts to obtain the victory must
be duly thought out and properly pro-
vided for A false move. however, ap-
parently insignificant, may bring dis
aster. The grand man in the White
House, who seems to have been divine
ly ordained to be the leader in this
struggle for democracy, must have
helpers on whom he can absolutely
depend and who will follow him
through thick and thin to the bitter
end The voters, therefore, of this
district must send such a man to the
next Congress, as will stand behind
Mr.. Wilson in every move he makes
a man who will not play politics OF
be actuated by his own selfish inter
ests but who will act and vote with an
eye single to the success of the great
issue for which we are sacrificing our
