G.tAngus Fraser. adjutant general of
North Dakota, and for 80 years prolhi-

discharged from the national army the
day the convention opened was elected
president of the association.
General Fraser served with the First

upon the return of the regiment from
the inSlllar campaign was active in the
reorganization Of the national guard
in This state. He resigned the rank of
major in the spring of 1917. to become

clare un-American, insisting that Of

been so far removed from the people
to lose touch with their ideals and
with the principles of democracy.

Fraser today. "the national guard feels
that the citizen soldier more nearly
sl1uares with american ideals. and Is

WHEAT PRICE
TO MILLERS
Julius Barnes Makes Provision
to Adjust Flour Dis
tributiOn
SECURE EQUAL BENFITS
Profit Margins to Be Supervised
and Controlled by Federal
Government
SECURE EQUAL BENFITS

New York, May l4.-An immediate
reduction in the price Of wheat reach
ing all down the line from the pro-
ducer to the baker, is believed assured
according to a statement issued today
by Julius Barnes, wheat director, fol-
lowing prolonged conferences yester-
day between Mr.. Barnes and repre-
sentatives of the grain industry, in
dustry, including grain handlers, mill
ers, jobbers and bakers.
The statement issued oy Mr.. Barnes
says:
"There was general agreement
that in order that all the wheat pro-
ducers of the country should secure
equal benefits that the various trades
should be bound by contract to see
that the wheat trading was done on
the guaranteed price.
Subject 20 Control
In return for production against a
fall in price after the guaranteed price
had been made for wheat bought, the
wheat director would require from the
various trades contract obligations by
which their trade. practices and mar
gins of profit would be subject to re-
view and control by the wheat direc-
tor. >, ,E .v-.:
3. Reach Basis .-.,..
: 1t was suggested for instance that
the mills agree that their total gross
operating profits between wheat
bought and finished product sold
should not exceed an agreed basis per
barrel of flour manufactured, thus as
suring immediate reflection to the con-
suher of any reduced price of wheat
Supplied to the mills. A..r&..4.,.
The jobbers expressed willingness
also to contract that their handling
margins should not exceed the price
fixed on an agreed basis, thus making
effective lower retail price of flour
when made by mills on readjusted
wheat basis.
The bakers were willing to enter
into a contract by which they would
reflect at once in their product the
lower price of flour made effective by
the mills. In this way, there is
thought to be an assurance that a re-
duced price of wheat should be effec-
tive Immediately all down the line.
