PLUMB DECLARES
CAPITAL LEVY TO
PAY DEBT POSSIBLE
Head Of Tri-Partite Control Of
Railroads Speaks on Ma
tional Indebtedness Before
FaFmer.Lab Conference.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1s.--Biseharge Of the
national debt by a capital levy upon
property may be necessary, Glenn p.
Plumb, president OF the Plumb Plan
League for a tri-partite control OF
railroads, said in an address here last
night before the All-American Farmer
Labor Cooperative conference.
"Our problem In meeting the ma
Jional debt" no said, sis so to adjust
our affairs that the two per cent or
the people owning SO per cent of the
wealth shall pay their percentage OF
this Indebtedness; the SS per cent Of
the people owning IS per cent Of the
wealth shah pay the percentage due
from them and that the SIS per cent OF
the people who own five per cent OF
the wealth shall not be required to pay
more than their proportionate amount
of this indebtedness.
III we meet this Indebtedness by. a
tax on industry we distribute the liza
bility to each man in accordance with
his purchasing power. When all Is
said and done we may be compelled TO
accept the solution already adopted In
Germany and now considered as in
evitable in Great Britain-the discharge
Of the entire national debt by placing
capital levy upon property.
Advocates Study.
II do not say that this is the method
that must be adopted. But in our own
interests we must study this question
and determine upon the method which
we unitedly RECOMMEND for the solution
OF this problem.'N
The farmer-labo conference looks tc
the establishment Of a cooperative en-
terprise, Mr.. Plumb said embracing
every step from the production of raw
materials to collection. manufacture
storage and distribution to the ulti-
mate consumer. 1t is hoped to include
100000 men representing upward o.
20,000,000 citizens in the project.

PLENTY NEXT DOOR,
Record Harvest Predicted for
Canada.

After having made a careful sur
vey Of the wheat producing area Of
the United States. experts whose bust
ness It Is to keep the people Informed

state that this year there will be q
failing on In the wheat production IN
the States. due to a considerably less
area cultivated. The opinion OF these
experts Is that the decrense will be
several hundred million bushels OF
wheat less than in previous years,
which according to past experience
Will be scarcely. sufficient to meet the
requirements OF the demands OF the
people Of this country.
In Canada, however. the situation
is different Reliable reports on the
crop situation throughout Western
Canada are such as TO create the most
substantial optimism. Never before
were the prospects so encouraging for
a bumper harvest. II Is predicted
that the yield this year Will be even
greater thnn in 1915. the year OF the
record harvest in CANADA, when the
total production was S03.542.0 600
bushels. Not only Is the wheat looking
excellent, but the same is true OF oats,
harley and fax. Of which greatly
increased acreage has been sown In
the great grain producing provinces Of
Canada.
The rains that have fallen recently
have come at the right time to stinin-
late growth and there Is now consider

the world generally facing q shortage
Of wheat and a continued heavy de-
mand for 1t, the price Is likely 10 be

early spring have every prospect OF

Birge, "all kinds Of strange things hap
