CHICAGO, April 6.1The Department
of Agriculture should lend the same
aid to farmers in marketing their
crops as it does in their production.

There is just as much reason he
said, why the department should as

the department"
"Should Turn on Light"
The department should turn on the
light" he continued. "If there are
points along the way at which there
is unnecessary waste, that should be
made known. If there are men along
the way who are taking too much
toll for the service they render, that
also should be made known. A plen-
tiful supply of food at prices which
are just to both producer and con-
sumer is vital to our national welfare
and it is a proper function of the gov
ernment to do what it can to- insure it..
Right to Organize.
The farmers right to organize into
associations. cooperative or other
their crops, Mr.. Wallace said, cannot
be questioned. so long as they OBJ
serve the requirements of our laws -
"A denial of this right" he continued,
would result in reducing the free
farmers of the United States to a con-
dition comparable with the down.
trodden peasants or poems of less en-
lightened countries. and would bring
upon US all the griefs which those
countries are bearing"
While not discussing the committees
marketing plan in detail, the Agricul-
ture Secretary said it appeared to
have profited by practical experience
of the past and to have avoided the
weaknesses which had broken down
many previous organizations. It had
tried, he said, to improve the present
marketing machinery and not under
take to wipe it out, adding, In this
you have been most wise" The com
mittee. he asserted, was neither at
tempting to create a monopoly nor tc
fix prices"
"Condition Grossly Unjust
Calling attention to the current low
prices for farm products, while "prac-
tically everything the farmers buy is
from so to 100 per cent above pre-war
normals," Secretary Wallace said il
lis not strange that thousands OF
them should be willing and ready to
adopt drastic measures to correct a
condition which is so grossly unjust
and which is causing widespread
hardship and suffering"
The Secretary added, however. thai
it was mo time to be ruled by preju-
dices and no time for shallow think

POLITICS, MORROW SAYS
Governor Declares ROad-BuiId-

S7O,OOO,OO0

Louisville, Ky, June 7.-Govern-
or Morrow, speaking in the interests
of good roads throughout Kentucky
today at the initial session of the an
nual good roads convention, under
the auspices of the Kentucky State
Road Engineers association, as
serted that 1.-The good roads depart
nent will be kept out of politics for
the sake of good roads"
THE good roads department was
made and built outside of politics,
and" he declared, lit is my inten-
ton to keep it out of politics, to
keep it working decently, that it
may receive the care, interest and
thought that it demands.
This year there will be built
five times as much road as ever was
built before in the state in the same
period. The BODYBUILDING program
Of Kentucky necessitates an outlay
of between $6O,OOO,OOO and $780,
900, 900.
Every single line of endeavor in
Kentucky OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES on
good roads. Better lines of COM
munication lead to better rural
schools and better education. You
must have good roads traversing the
entire state, that here may flow the
commerce, business-the life blood
Of the state. The spirit is born that
will bring all this" he concluded.
Merritt Drane, Jefferson county,
president OF the association, in in
Producing Governor Morrow, ex-
planned that he was obliged to ad-
dress the convention today instead
of Wednesday because of a degree
to be conferred by university.
Among the thirty-five machinery
exhibits at the armory there were
twice made-in-ouisville displays.
The exhibit embraces everything
from tractors to gravel piles and
farm implements and machinery,
Mayor Smith welcomed the dele
gates, county judges, contractors
and engineers, representing every
county in the state. County Judge

Then private advice received

TREATY or An|Ty AND
COMMERCE PROPOSED
Mexico Asked TO Agree TO Safe
guard Rights Of Property
in That Country

Washington, June THE Amer
lean government has proposed a
treaty of amity and commerce with
Mexico, 1t was announced today at
the state department, in which
Mexico will agree to safeguard the
rights of property in that country
held by American citizens. The
signing of the treaty automatically
would accomplish recognition of the
Mexican government.
Formal announcement Of the ad-
ministration's policy toward the
Southern republic was made after
the subject had been discussed at
the regular cabinet meeting. Presi-
dent Harding and his advisors had
before them communication from
President Obregon relating to the
proposed treaty, which was pres
ented to the Mexican government
by George T. Summerlin the Ameri-
can charge at Mexico City, on May
81.
ObregOn's Reply Withheld
The text of Obregon's reply has
been withheld and administration
officers decline to comment as to
the relation to it of the announce
ment of policy made public by Sec
rotary Hughes. 1t is understood,
however, that Obregon referred to
the negotiations which are proceed
ing with Mr.. Summerlin and indi-
Gated a willingness to carry them
forward. 1t is known that he has
summoned to the capital Ministers
Gales and De La Huerta, who are
reported to have counseIled against
the signing of such a treaty at a
Mexican cabinet conference held af-
ter it had become known in Mexico
City that treaty of this character
would be proposed by the United
States.
Secretary Hughes announcement
contained no reference to the atti-
tude assumed by President ,Obre-
gon, but it did say that if Mexico
did not contemplate confiscatory
policy with regard to property the
American government could "con-
ceive of no possible objection to the
treaty.
Provisions of Treaty
1t was stated that the proposed
treaty contained 1.-The conventional
stipulations as to commerce and
reciprocal rights in both countries
that it provided for the conclusion
of convention for the settlement
of claims for losses of life and
property, and also a provision for
lust settlement of boundary mat
ters."
