thought that they found a spy, and,
acting, presumably on the presump-
ton that these mems suspicious
were well founded. The Nonpartisan
Leader made use Of the occasion as
an excuse for heaping untruthrul
and malicious abuse on me in its
April u issue. Having no desire 70
do anything that would hinder the

did, every league member in this
county knows that / did. am
learning, however. now that the part
that I played in this incident also,
even though 1t was one of sacrifice
for the good OF the league, is being
pointed to as proof OF disloyalty.
There is a limit TO what any man
with ordinary sense and backbone
will let go by unnoticed. and believ-
ing that il is my duty to state these
facts for the information OF those
who are willing to know the truth
and be fair to both sides, this
statement is respectfully submitted

grain in those sections Of the world
that are now cut off from transpor-
tation, should again come into COM
petition with his products. To in
crease the price of wheat above the
present figure, or to agitate any in
crease of price, would have the eff
feet Of very seriously hampering the
large operations Of the nation and
of the allies by causing the wheat of
last years crop to be withheld from
the market. It would, moreover, dis
locate all the present wage levels
that have been established after
much anxious discussion, and would,
therefore, create an industrial I'M
rest which would be harmful to ev-
cry industry in the country.
Spirit of Farmers.
Il know the spirit of our farmers
and have not the least doubt as to
the loyalty with which they will ac-
cept the present decision. The fan
wheat planting which furnishes two
thirds Of our wheat production, took
place with no other assurance than
this, and the farmers confidence
was demonstrated by the fact that
they planted an acreage larger than
the record of any preceding year,
larger by 100000 acres than the
second largest record year, and T.
900, 900 acres more than the average
for the five years before the out
break of the European war.
at seems not, to be generally I'M
derstood why wheat is picked out
for price determination, and only
wheat, among the cereals. The an
swer is that, while normal distribu-
ton of all our farm products has
been subject to great disturbances
during the last three years because
of war conditions, only two COM
modities, namely wheat and sugar,
have been so seriously affected as
to require governmental :mterven-
Why Wheat Is Singled Out.
"The disturbances which affect these
products (and others in less de
gree), arise from the fact that all
of the overseas shipping in the
world iss now under government con-
troll, and that the government is OBJ
liged to assign tonnage to each COM
modify that enters into commercial
overseas traffic. Tt has, consequent
ly. been necessary to establish single
agencies for the purchase of the
food supplies which must go abroad.
The purchase of wheat in the Uni
ted States for foreign use is Of so
great volume in comparison with the
available domestic supply that the
price Of wheat has been materially
disturbed, and it became necessary
in order to protect both the producer
and consumer, to prevent specula-
ton. Ii was necessary, therefore,
for the government to exercise a
measure OF direct supervision as far
as possible to control purchases of
wheat and the processes of its eX-
portation. This supervision neces-
sarily amounted to price fixing, and
/. therefore, thought IL fair and wise
that there should be a price stated
that should be at once liberal ana
equitable.
Farmer Serves Nation.
'aThese circumstances, governing
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1918-02-25

the handling and consumption of
wheat, put the farmer at the very
center of war service. Next to the
soldier himself, he is serving the
country and the world, and serving
it in way that is absolutely
fundamental to his own future
safety and prosperity. He sees this
and can be relied upon as the soldier
can.
The farmer is also contributing
men to the army, and am keenly alive
10 the sacrifices involved. Out of
18,800,0 900 men engaged in farm in
dustries, 100000 have been drafted,
or about 1.48 per cent of the whole
number. In addition to these there
have been volunteers and the farm
eTs have lost a considerable number
of laborers because the wage paid
in industrial pursuits drew them
away. In order to relieve the farm
ing industry as far as possible from
further drains of labor, the new
draft regulations have been drawn
with a view to taking from tho
farms an even smaller proportion of
men and il is my hope that the To-
cal exemption boards viii make the
new classifcatiOns with a view to
tightening the load upon the farm
rotary of war has asked for author
ity to furlough soldiers Of the ma
tional army if conditions permit it,,
so that they may be returned to
their farms when assistance is
necessary in the planting and har-
vesting Of crops. National and local
agencies are actively at work, be-
sides, in organizing community help
for the more efficient distribution Of
available labor and the drawing up
on new sources of labor. While there
will be difficulties, and very serious
ones, they will be difficulties which
are among the stern necessities of
war.
Railways Will Co operate.
THE federal railway administra-
ton is cooperating in the most ac-
tive, intelligent and efficient way
with the food administration to re-
move the difficulties of transporta-
ton and of the active movement of
the crops. Their marketing is to be
facilitated and the farmers given
the opportunity to realize promptly
upon their work.
THE department of agriculture
and the food administration VIII
continue to cooperate as hereto
fore to assist the Farmers in every
way possible. All questions OF pro-
duction. of the marketing of farm
products, of conservation in the
course of production, and of agricul-
tural labor and farm problems gen
orally, will be handled by the de-
partment Of agriculture, while. all
questions of distribution of food
supplies to the allies and OF conser-
walton In consumption will be hand
led by the food administration; but
the chief reliance is on the farmer
himself. and / am sure that reliance
will be warranted by the results.
The chief thing to be kept in mind
is that regulations of this sort are
only a part Of the great general plan
OF mobilization into which every ele-
ment in the nation enters in this war
as in no other. The business of
war touches everybody. II is stern
a cooperative business, al
of energy and sacrifice. O.
of service, in the largest
and best and most stirring sense Of

four SOLDIERS PLOTTED
TO SHOOT THEIR OFFICERS
- Associated Press.l

Camp Lewis, Feb. 23.-The arrest
of four soldiers against whom SER
ious charges may be filed, was an
nounced today at the Office of the
division Judge advocate, who with
held their names. What action in
regard to their cases is to be taken
the Judge advocate would not say,
beyond the fact that instructions
were awaited from Washington.
According to the judge advocates
office, the men are accused of having
entered into a plot to shoot their Of
ficers as soon as they were placed
on the battle front in france ana
Ia deliver the men of their organiza-
ton, il possible into the hands q
the Germans as prisoners.
If the accusations are sustained,
the men face death as the extreme
penalty, and in any case discharge
from the army and internment as
enemy aliens, the judge advocate
said.
