THE FARMERS PROSPECTS

A welcome air of optimism per-
meates the annual report of the
Secretary of Agriculture. He is
Of the opinion that good reason
exists for believing that the
worst of the farmers plight is
over and that from now on"
gradual improvement may be ex-
pected. There is very little
ground for doubling the accuracy
of this representation, and every
one hopes that it will be more
than realized.
To the bringing about of the
unsatisfactory agricultural con-
ditions that have for so long pre-
vailed many causes contributed.
Foremost among them were the
general unsettlement due to the
world war, increased freight
rates, the production of big crops
at high cost, the failure of foreign
mark cts to absorb the American
surplus and unemployment in
many manufacturing industries
with its inevitable corollary Of
lessened power to buy foodstuffs.
1t surely is not unreasonable to
hope that as these causes one by
one disappear-as some of them
are already beginning to do
there will be a corresponding i'm
provement in the condition of
the tiller of the soil and that
Secretary Wallace's vision of a
new agricultural era will come to
pass. Washington Post.

RAILWAY BOARD RULING
MAY BRING TEST OF ACT
Brotherhoods Send Petition Asking
Decision on Power to
Call Conferences.

On the decision of the Railway
Labor Board of Chicago upon a petit
tion from the railroad brotherhoods
through Frank p. Walsh, general
counsel, hinges the posi- biIity of a
test of vital sections of the trans
portation act in the courts, Mr.. Walsh
announced yesterday.
Tho petition requests that the board
rule on it's power and jurisdiction in
calling conferences between railroad
executives and representatives of the
railroad unions.
Following the refusal of the rail-
roads to open conference with rep
resentatives of the unions on work.
ing agreements and general COM
plants, the unions decided to invoke
the protection of the law. it was
stated, which provides, under title 3,
what is considered the means of set
Ting disputes through conferences
between the two parties.
1.-The law presupposes the holding
of conferences" Mr.. Walsh said today.
The basic principles of the law were
for collective bargaining on q nation
al scale between the railroads and
the unions. In event that 1t is decided
that it is not within the scope of the
Railway Labor Board to order to con-
ference on these questions, it is pos
sible that we will take the case in the
courts to have a ruling on the law
The petition itself presents this pos
! sibility by declaring that lit may be
necessary to seek judicial action as to
certain features of the transportation
act and as to interpretations of the
act by carriers, by ourselves and by
your honorable body"

DROP IN HOUSING COSTS
HOPE OF THE BUYERS
10. S. Chamber of Commerce Ex-
plains Difficulty Met by Build
ers in Selling Property.

Prospective buyers hope that hous-
ing costs will come down with costs
of other commodities has contributed
to the difficulty experienced by build
ers in dsposing of houses during the
past six months, according TO an an
nouncement of the United States
Chamber of Commerce.
The civic development department
of the chamber bases this belief on
data obtained in a survey of the ac-
tivities of more than 200 chambers of
commerce interested in stimulating
home building.
The "slack" in employment is given
as another reason by housing COM
panies sponsored by chambers of COM
merce for the slump in the dwelling
market. The survey showed that some
companies are willing to sell imme-
diately at sacrifice, while others an
ticipate only temporary slump, and
are holding the houses, or renting
them awaiting sales.
The survey discloses that 81 hous-
ing and financing companies have
begun or completed the building Of
STA houses. and have made plans for
building 4 900 more.

NEW EMBASSY SITE
FOR FRANCE URGED
Nearness of Present Home to
German Headquarters Re-
garded Objectionable.

The fact that sites selected before the
war for embassy buildings of France
and Germany are located just across
from each other on street. has been
urged by owners of property in other
! blocks OF Northwest Washington as a
reason why tho French government
should trade its present holdings for a
site elsewhere. it was learned today.
The property owned by France was
purcha sed about twenty years ago, be-
fore international complications We're
dreamed of. and when property values
in the section selected were much less
than they are today. The land runs be-
tween Decatur and 5 streets near I'D
street northwest, extending several nun
dred feet on street, within hall block
of the house and grounds recently ac-
quired by President and Mrs. Wilson for
their future home.
German Site Across Street.
Directly across the street is the site
owned by the German government and
on which Germany had planned to erect
a magnificent home for it's ambassador
to the United States. With the advent
OF the recent war the property, along
with other German owned realty, was
taken over by the alien property custo-
dian.
The foresight of the French govern
ment in procuring the S street site is
reflected in the phenomenal rise in prop
erty assessments in the vicinity. In the
same block and on the same side OF the
street are the homes of President Will
son and Herbert Hoover. and nearby,
on Wyoming avenue. is President elect
Harding's private residence. The imme-
date section has become one of the
most exclusive residential communities
in Washington.
International Problem Cited.
There looms. however. the interna-
tional problem growing out Of the prox-
unity of the French property to the plot
belonging TO the German government,
than whom France knows Of no greater
enemy, and toward whom. despite the
cessation of hostilities. bitterness con-
tinues to be directed
1t is rumored that one prominent real
estate owner and builder has been quiet
" endeavoring to persuade French visi-
tors to Washington and French officials
stationed here to forsake the street
site for one on 18th street. north of
Florida avenue. where quite diplomatic
colony has been established On the
other hand. some objection has been
raised to such a plan. it is UNDERSTOOD
on the ground that a thoroughfare such
as 9th street would not be as quiet and
desirable as S street for residential pur-
poses In this connection. 1t IS pointed
out that the British embassy bought on
Connecticut avenue when the street was

nue. has become a commercial center.
