vETOES S2.4O WHEAT VICTORY is CLAIMED
PRESIDENT SAYS FARMERS DO
NOT NEED INCREASE.
Arbitrary Basis is Not Fair to Pro-
Queer or Consumer-WouId Raise
Living Cost.

Washington, July II. - President
Wilson vetoed on Friday the annual
agricultural appropriation bill, con
tanning an amendment increasing the
price of wheat to $40 per bushel.
Members of congress from wheat-grOW-
ing states will make fight TO
pass the bill over the veto, but indi-
cations are that the wheatprice pro-
visions will be eliminated. The presi-
dents message said the increase in
the price of wheat would add 81 to
the cost of barrel of flour, and
would add 1887, 100000 TO the price of
the 100000, 000-bushel crop of 1918
wheat.
The presidents message in part fol-
lows:
81 regret to return without my sig
nature so important measure as
III. r. 9O54, entitled An Act Making
Appropriations for the Department of
Agriculture for the Fiscal Year End
ing June 80, 1910, but ! feel con-
strained to do so because of my earn
est dissent from the point of view of
principle as well as wise eXpediency,
from the provisions of that part OF
section IA which prescribes uniform
minimum price for No. northern
spring wheat of $40 a bushel.
Il dissent upon principle because l
believe that such inelastic legislative
price provisions are insusceptible OF
being administered in way that Will
be advantageous either to the pro-
Queer or to the consumer, establish
Ing as they do arbitrary levels which
are quite independent of the normal
market conditions"

TROLLEY CREW
SHORTAGE CUTS
RUNSOF CARS
W. R, & E.. Company Ham
pered by Difficulty Of
Getting Labor.

During the month Of April the
shortage OF labor on the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company
was so great that 7.4O7 trips on the
schedule Of the company were not
operated, according to a summary
made public yesterday by the Pub
lie Utilities Commission, of the daily
report Of the company as to the
number OF runs not operated.
Although the omission Of some of
the runs may have been due to other
causes, the company states that by
far the greater part OF the numbers
not operated was due to lack Of
labor to operate the cars.
On the Eleventh street line of the
company alone there were 2,3S3' trips
which could not be made for this
reason. The other two lines on which
the shortage of trips was most Sc
riously felt were the North Capi-
tol street line, on which 1,34s trims
were missed. and the F street Capi-
tol line. which omitted 1,2s5 trips.
The Public Utilities Commission IL
keeping a record of the trips missed
through the daily reports submitted
to the commission by the street car
company.
The necessity for obtaining a much
larger force of motormen and con-
ductors to operate the cars, which
the company has been endeavorfng
10 do' Is thus emphasized.
