eral days. It went into effect Sep
tember 2, exactly one week after the
North Dakota congressman elected
by League farmers had mobilized
platoon Of northwestern farmer dele
gates and stormed the offices Of the
United States Grain corporation at AZ
Broadway, New York City, to deliver
what was, in effect, an ultimatum on
the subject of wheat prices.
In the now historic New York con-
ference on August 26, julius H.
Barnes, federal grain administrator,
freely admitted the justice OF the two
main contentious on which the Non
partisan league has based it's fight
against the grain grades "fixed" by
the notorious Charles J.. Brand.
Barnes agreed that the price spread
under the present grades is unfair,
and he admitted also that under the
present grades the farmer gets prices
often far below the milling value of
his wheat. Unable to revise the
grades set by the department of agri-
culture he has done the next best
thing in formulating new price
scale. This is as follows, as drawn
for terminal sales at Minneapolis,
with country point sales subject only
to the appropriate transportation
discounts:
No. /, $2.21k per bushel; No. q,
$2.18A; No. 8, $2.15h; No. 4,
$2.117s; No. 5, $2.O71s.

League Wins Wheat Price Victory
Baer Young, Sinclair and Doctor Ladd Convince Barnes
Farmers Should Get More for Low Grade Wheat

For all wheat conforming to the
general specifications of No. 5 or bet
ter, but deficient in weight, the No. 5
price is to be discounted not more
than 3 cents per bushel for each
pound deficiency in test. This ruling
applies to grades running as low as
As pounds. Wheat grading below
No. for reasons other than deficiency
in test weight is to be bought on it's
relative merits.
9 The new price rulings now in effect
further specify that cents bushel
is to be the maximum discount for
slightly smutty wheat, although grain
that is badly smutted may be sub
jected to larger discounts. Garlicky
wheat is to be discounted flat 2
cents. and discounts from to cents
will be applied to mixed wheat ac-
cording to judgments of quality made
by the grain corporations vice presi-
dents.
Mixed wheat and rye, grading as
mixed grain, will be discounted as fol-
lows under the new standards: The
average value of the wheat and rye
will be estimated separately at their
proper value and in their proper pro-
portion, figuring rye at go pounds to
? the bushel Allowance will be made
for dockage or other foreign material
and deduction will he made as seems
justiiable, with the provision of not
less than 5 cents per bushel penalty
for the mixture.
Outstanding features of the new
rulings are as follows:
The action is taken at such time
that the advantages will be realized
on the first grain brought in to the
elevators.
The standard price scales have been
sent by Mr.. Barnes to all zone Offices
of the United States Grain corporation
with instructions to them to have the
government buy in competition if the
dealers try to evade or underbid the
federal scale.
The price scales specify a not more
than 10-cent> spread between No. 1
and No. 4 wheat. At the conference
a mass of data was submitted proving
that the farmers have been receiving
for their wheat prices with a spread
of from Is to AZ cents bushel. The
unfairness Of this, in view of the rela-
tive milling values of lightweight
wheat, was strongly emphasized by
President Ladd Of the North Dakota
Agricultural college.
The new price scale is based on the
government guaranteed price. .
Since the guaranteed price on No.
wheat is not affected by the new
standards, and as flour prices are
based on the price paid by the millers
for this grade, regardless of the pro-
. portions Of No. ! wheat which ulti-
mately go into the making of the
flour, there is no excuse for raising
the retail price Of bread and other
wheat products by this decision. Any
attempt by the millers to make up
this increase to the producer out of
the pocket Of the consumer will be
vigorously dealt with by the grain
corporation, it is promised.
The necessary arrangements for the
conference which has resulted in this
memorable victory for the organized
farmers were made by Representative
George M. Young of North Dakota.

PROJECTED CONFEDERATION OF
CHURCHES


Zion is familiar with the teaching that one of
the,great world signs of the Time of the End will
be the formation of ecclesiastical Babylon through
confederation of churches, and this will paral
lei political Babylon as seen in the revived Roman
Empire
In confirmation of this. read the following
article, entitled, "World League of Churches
Plan" which appeared in the Chicago Herald and
Examiner a few days ago:
"New York, March 2.-Plans by which the
Roman Catholic, Greek, Russian and Protestant
churches may organize league similar to that
Of the proposed society of nations to cooperate
in Christian work as brethren, will be laid before
the Pope by three Protestant bishops, it was an
nounced here today by the Right Rev. r. H.
Weller, Protestant Episcopal bishop of Fond du
Lac Wisconsin.
Bishop Weller said that, accompanied by
Bishop Charles Anderson of Chicago and another
bishop yet to be named, he would journey soon
to Rome in behalf of the church league"

ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL SITUATION
IN GERMANY, GRAVE

1t half the reports emanating from Germany
are true, the new moderate government which
was established few weeks ago, is now rapidly
approaching crisis in its affairs. Industrial and
political disorders are sprnging up everywhere
and a general strike has begun in Berlin which
may develop into nationwide revolution.
London papers, in speaking of the internal
decentralization in Germany, and the dangerous
growth of Boshevsm as a result of lack of food,
and the increase of unemployment, express deep
concern at the problem thus created for the allies.
The Berlin correspondent of the London TeIe-
gram contends that if the allies do not act immed-
atey there will be no Germany to negotiate with
because anarchy will take the place of the govern
ment. The writer declares that the entente powers
must send help at once by dispatching foodstuffs,
even if that involves considerable relaxation of
the blockade

IMPORTANT LEGISLATION BLOCKED
BY FILIBUSTER DURING CLOSING
HOURS OF SIXTY-FIFTH
CONGRESS

Congress adjourned at noon, on March 4, IN
the midst of Republican fllibuster which efectu-
ally blocked long list Of important legislation.
Senator Sherman, of Illinois, Republican, be-
gan a speech at 80 q. m. and held the floor more
than four hours This successfully prevented
further consideration of the railroad appropria-
ton of $75O,OOO,0OO, which may result in quick
return of railroads to their owners, unless the
situation is remedied by an extra session of
Congress.
The Washington correspondent Of the Chicago
EUening Post says:
"Never in thirty years, Veteran congressional
employees said, had there been such a complete
tie-up of business by flbuster, which today
blocked even the usual and perfunctory affairs,
such as resolutions and other exchanges of cour-
tesy to and from retiring officers.
"The long list of measures that failed included
all reconstruction legislation, including the gen
eral railroad legislation and bills defining ship
ping policy and dealing with unemployment labor
and illiteracy problems the oil, gas and coal land
leasing and water development bills; the new
compromise woman suffrage resolution; meat
industry legislation; immigration exclusion and
alien deportation bills; resolutions to terminate
government control of telegraph, telephone and
other wire utilities Dec. 81 the sedition, or So
called red flag" bill, aimed at unlawful acts
and propaganda; the resolution to repeal the 10
percent tax on semi-luxuries in the war revenue
bill; and Secretary Lanes bill appropriating
$1OO,OOOOOO for reclamation Of waste lands to be
allotted to soldiers and sailors"
A strong effort had been made to force Presi-
dent Wilson to call an immediate extra session
of Congress, but this he refused to do. In
public statement, he said that a group Of men in
the Senate had deliberately chosen to embarrass
the administration Of the government, to imperil
the financial interests of the railway systems of
the country and to make arbitrary use of powers
intended to be employed in the interests of the
people.
He declared it was plainly his duty to return
at once to the peace conference in Paris. 1t was
also his duty, he said to be in close contact with
public business during session of Congress, and
ne was forced to choose between the two.
In all probability, an extra session of Congress
will be called after the president returns from
Europe
Half hour before adjournment, President
Wilson signed the $1,O00OO0,O0O wheat guaran-
tee measure, thus insuring $40 bushel to farm
ers for the 1919 crop
On March 3, he also had signed the victory
loan bill which had passed the Senate on the
previous day and which authorized the treasury
to issue $7,OOO,O0OO0O in short term notes and
provides $1,0O0,OO0OOO for the use of the war
finance corporation in stimulating the country's
foreign commerce

BRITISH GENERAL STRIKE POST
PONED, PENDING INVESTIGATIONS
OF LABOR CONDITIONS
&C. B. W.

According to London reports, Premier Lloyd
George has succeeded in persuadlng the great
triple alliance of coal miners, railroad men and
dock laborers to postpone their nationwide strike
for one week or from March IS to March e.
He is said to be handling the labor crisis in
mastery manner In one hall. on February 27
ne set up great national commission, repre-
sentng both labor and capital, to report wa ges
hours and other questions. At the same time, in
another hall, ne was exerting every influence
with the triple alliance to stave off the drastic
action threatened
During the entire day, he was busy PASSING
from one meeting to the other, and ended. late
IN the afternoon, with speech of great power
and eloquence, with the result that thousand
delegateS = representing ten million workers,
i,dil IL idoor leaders and half EMPLOYERS passed
he resolutions he desired in the face of hitter
protest ~ oi''ei
II is hoped that before the time set for the
general strike the special commission created h,
parliament will have reported recommendations

u the British Empire for several weeks and
l1ioi ndI oeen regarded as graver menace than
the world war ITSELF
Lloyd George is said to have told the renre-
Sentatlves of labor and capital that he hoped to
eLiect reduction, by summer in the high cost
of living. Isl Oo''
Tie declared that there was no wav to re1;e,,a
ol,enployment until industry was fuliv restored
"iiioii could not be until peace was sioned Hou,
ever ne hoped that would be accomnished ,,;tn;,
a few weeks. ''''hsiieu Within
Representatives of the triple alliance have da
oidleu tnelr intention of obtaining for themselves
dii increasing share of the wealth which tbe;r
labor has produced and produces, and. moreover
to shorten the hours of labor
Ihey declare their dissatisfaction "w;tb tba
system OF society which treats the labor power as
mere commodity to be bought and sold, as
though men and women were machines Ike
units IN the process of wealth and distribution.
The workers demand that they shall become "real
partners IN industry, jointly sharing in determin-
ing working conditions and MANAGEMENT" They
also say that labor has become increasingly alive
10 It's sovereign power and will shirl no resnon-
Sbllltes and will be denied none of its RIGHTS and
privileges"
They declare further that "the miners rail-
way men and transport workers stand unatera-
bly, for the ownership by the state of the mines
and railways and the means Of inland and coas-
tai transport.
The principle at the bottom of these declara-
tions seems fair and reasonable enough but when
it comes to demanding 3O-hour week, together
cudes that, in its practical application, more ty
rann1cal selfish and one-sided than the Prus-
sian militarism against which almost the entire
world has been fighting
1t is hoped that sane and reasonable adjust
ment with due consideration for all parties con-
cerned, will be reached.
