WHEAT GRADING

Application of Government
Standards at Buying Points
to be Taken up
PARTICULARLY IN N. w,

Washington, Aug. g.. 6.-Investigation
of the duplication of Government
standards in wheat grading, particular
ly at country buying points, has been
ordered by Secretary Wallace. A prac-
tical mill and economist with expert
enced assistants are to study "the pro-
blems connected with grading especi-
ally in the Northwest" a department
announcement said.
The investigation will include grad
ing at local elevators and will follow
/ le wheat through the several processes
70 the mill with view of showing
how the grades can be arranged to re-
fleet the milling values to the grower.
Secretary Wallace recently refused
to change the federal grade standards
for spring wheat and stated that not
enough evidence had been presented
to justify changes. If such evidence
is found by the investigators, it was
said changes will be made in advance
of the marketing season next year.

Washington Aug. 6.-Demand is
growing from women of the country
that President Harding name woman
on the American delegation to the dis
armament conference. Mrs. Harrie,
Taylor Upton of Ohio probably will be
the choice of the administration.
Here are views of some national
women's leaders on the question of
permitting woman to sit on the del
egatiOn: t..
MISS FLORENCE KING, Chicago
president National Woman's Associa-
ton Of Commerce: Members of the
disarmament conference should be
persons Of unusual ability, clear vis-
ion and an understanding of the COM
plicated problems. Women should not
be barred because Of sex. nor should
not be appointed solely in order that
women might sit. II the president can
find women whose ability and con-
structive ideas would aid in bringing
about condition necessary to effect
disarmament, he should consider them
the same as men.
MRS. EDWARD f. WHITE, deputy
attorney-general of Indiana and legis-
lative chairman, General Federation
of Women's Clubs: If President Hard
ing can find woman qualified to sit
by reason of study and experience with
questions Of diplomacy or foreign pol
icies and with capacity for effective
collaboration with other American con-
lerees, she should be appointed. She
would represent group of citizens
who have almost unanimously endors-
ed the principle Of disarmament.
believe there are such women.

Voters: My position is best shown by

The Elks lodge, at meeting last

day, Aug. Is and 16, fifty per cent OF
the receipts to be donated to the swim

Two of the committees did not fin
ish their territory on the second drive
and they will cover the territory COM
pletely. However, it was announced
that the promise of p r. Fields, head
of the Elks, made in his presentation
speech, that there would be no new
solicitations would be kept. Mr..
Fields explained that there was adeficit
and that various activities would be
promoted to meet it.
VIM. Kraft was named chairman Of
a committee to handle the events pro-
posed. One Of these may be water

SAYS RESERVE
METHODS HELP
IN BAD TIME
Governor Harding Asserts That
Reserve Board Policy was
Successful
THE HEARING is CLOSED
Was Possibility of Panic Had
Not Board Taken Action it
Did, He Says

Washington, Aug. 6.-Reserve bank
policies OF 1919 and 1920 were formu-
lated solely to prevent the countrys
| banking system from collapsing and
were successful, in their object, Gov
ern0r Harding of the reserve board
declared yesterday in closing two
days appearance before a Joint con-
sressional commission no questiOners
he repeated that the board had not
sought to influence prices, either up
or u0wn, but had prepared to meet II
Worldwide price break and maintain
and expand credit lines.
There was a bare possibility, he said,
that if in 1918, the reserve board had
raised national re-discount rates, "the
runaWays in prices might have been
checked and the result might have
Deen BETTER" but he mentioned needs
OF the government financing as influ-
entail III determining the course taken.
Representative Summer, Democrat,
Texas, suggested that "the word
might have gone OUT from the board
to bankers TO be fearful OF prices,
but Governor Harding said that no
thing lad been done inconsistent with
this statement.
1T was not good time to be talk
ing too much-in l921,-' he remark
ed, "but we can be bolder now"
"All ever the country, we learn that
agricultural and livestock interests
find they need more credit facilities"
he said, land want something to make
themselves independent OF banks. The
farmers credit horizon is necessarily
limited and local. Any man hesitates
about getting the government in bust
ness, and We cannot use the reserve
system for that, because it's funds are
essentially reserve funds, but consid-
err there is a possibility that the farm
loan banks might be extended to meet
he need" ...., h.

DEFENDS ACTION
ON CONTRACT OF
STATE PRINTING
Head of Printing Commission
Asserts Quick Print Can't
Handle Work

| Defending its action in granting q
| state printing contract to the Norman.
den Publishing company and denying
the contract to the Quick Print Co. Inc
Of Bismarck and Mandan, the chairman
OF the State Printing and publication
Commission filed affidavits in district
court asserting that the Quick Print
Company was not equipped to handle
the business and give necessary SER
vice.
The affidavits were filed when the
matter came before Judge Nuessle late
yesterday afternoon. w. II. Stutsman,
state railroad commissioner, acting as
attorney for the Quick Print company,
asked time in which to answer the
affidavits. Judge Nuessle informed at
torneys he was leaving on vacation
tomorrow and it was decided that at
torneys should ask a Judge to hear the
matter next Tuesday.
Frank Milholan, of the state COM
mission, and James Curran, state
printer, filed affidavits saying that the
Quick Print company was equipped
to do chiefly commercial printing and
company did not have equipment suf-
ficient to handle the state contract it
sought to get Mr.. Curran said in his
affidavit that in June, 1921, at meet
ing Of the Mandan local Of the Inter-
national Typographical Union ma
jority Of the members present at the
meeting voted to surrender their char
ter of the said Mandan local and that
under the constitution and bylaws of
the typographical union the Quick
Print shop was no longer entitled to
use the International Typographical
Union label. A state law requires the
union label on state printing.
The Quick Print icompany had OBJ
tanned a restraining order from Judge
Nuessle prohibiting the commission
from awarding the contract, it alleging
it was the low bidder. Assistant Attor
Foster asked that the
matter be determined as quickly as
possible because it was desired to have
the work started on the printing, and
opposed Mr.. Stutsman's request for de-
lay. G. l.. Young appeared as at
torney for the Normanden Publishing
COMPANY.
