Wheat Will Bring
Now in The Dalles

The Dalles, Ore, Feb. 19.--Was-
sr0 county ranchers will not be able
80 sell wheat for more than 81
aSushel during the next two months
.saccording to the present trend OF
Ahe wheat market, Harry Starrett,
hnanager of the Diamond Milling
-ssompany, of this city, announced,
This low price is due largely to-
ahe low price for which Argentine
z1nd Australian wheat Is selling for
-s1u the Market" he explained.
Each of these countries has
Barge surplus of export wheat, with
which 1t is flooding the market.
-The big millers in America esti-
1nate that this surplus will not be
~zxhausted for at least two months
yet"
Starrett stated that he received
"A notice from Kerr-Gifford q COM
pany, owner of the local mill, to
nte effect that all purchases of ex-
Rort wheat would be at $1.25 a.
knshel, {. o. b. Portland. Counting
freight and othef 'charges, this
uEould give Wasco county farm
>ers a return of about 81 a bushel
Tor their wheat. he explained.
Virtually all of the wheat grown
fln Wasco county is the grade
tknown as export wheat, according
40 Starrett.
Wasco county farmers, holding
Hheir wheat in the hope of a re-
wtving market are hard hit by this

Dealers Hear
Ford Official
Talk on Sales

With his picture gracing the
wall behind a chair left vacant in
honor of Henry Ford, some 60
dealers in the Willamette valley
met at a banquet last night in the
Y. w. c. A. for the purpose of
hearing Frank V. Hadas. general
superintendent OF the River Rogue
plant, Detroit, Michigan, who ar
rived on the Shasta Limited and
was greeted with an ovation as he
entered the hall.
In the few brief remarks that
Mr.. Hadas made, he said, Henry
Ford had shut down his factory
for the first time in the history of
the company because he wished to
force the price of raw materials
down, and when operating would
commence it would take sometime
before the factory would be turn
ing out its capacity owing to large
number of employees necessary to
get work into full swing. i
The rumor that the Ford COM
pany was going broke was untrue,
he said, and had been circulated
by bankers, whose offer to loan
Henry Ford seventy-five million
dollars had been rejected, and who
did not stop to think that the
company had one hundred and
fifty million dollars worth of raw
materials in the fcatory and upon
which Ford could have borrowed,
if he had needed it, more than
twice the sum they offered.
He, as we'll as Mr.. Stellwagon, |
manager of Portland Branch, |
warned the dealers to get rid of
their present stock of tractors and !
cars as quickly as possible. to pro-
eect themselves, as there would be
a shifting of stocks to dealers who
could sell them, and which would

Germany, he pointed out, had
delivered bonds to the allies, but
ahe value of these bonds depended
upon the value of the German
security at the. present moment
Raw materials, ships, property of
