US. Milling Of
Canadian Wheat
Is New Proposal
Millers Would Be Allowed to
Import Any Amount Pro-
vided Equal Amount Then
Be Exported.

Minneapolis, Mimi, May 6.-Wheat
producers, farm organizations, county
agents, University of Minnesota au-
thorities and business men through
out the northwest have been re-
quested to give consideration to a
proposal for the milling of Canadian
wheat in bond by United States
mills by James Ford Bell, vice presi-
dent of local -four milling company.
In letter to Lotus d. Coffman,
president of the University of Mime
sofa, made public today. Mr.. Bell.
writing in regard to a permanent
tariff measure, says that the prices
paid to the producers for his wheat
and the price paid by the consumer
for his -four, will be determined to
large extent by the treatment of
Canadian wheat.
The proposal is that United States
millers be permitted to import from
Canada any amount of wheat for
manufacture into flour, providing
that for every 100 pounds SO i'm
ported, they export 100 pounds OF
-four. Under this plan the niillers
would be bonded by the secretary of
the treasury while importing the
Canadian wheat, such bonds to be
cancelled when they have exported
flour equal in weight to the wheat
imported.

way Can Be Constructed
From Present Ap-
preparation.

Lincoln, May 6.-(Special THE
reduction of 50 and IS per cent in
road building materials announced
recently by George Johnson, secre-
tary of the department of public
works, will mean the building OF
100 additional miles of state roads
in Nebraska this summer, accord
ing to figures compiled here.
With the opening of bids and the
discovery of the big decreases in
materials. it was estimated that 50
per cent of the money on hand
would be left after present con-
tracts are awarded. At present road
building material prices, this 80 per
cent means 100 more miles OF roads.
The business of awarding con-
tracts for 400 miles Of roads is un-
der way at the state house. The
senate chamber has been filled with
contractors all week listening to
reading of bids and the awarding
of contracts.
