MIDDLE WEST. JOINS THE {
GRAIN y GRADE FIGHT

IL -
changes in federal grain grades 50
that spring wheat would be graded
as it was under the old Minnesota
standards, now have the support of
organized farmers in ten other
states! g.: e., -
The presidents and secretaries of
ten state farm bureau federations,
meeting in St.. Paul, passed a reso-
luton urging congress to pass the
Steenerson bill which would change
federal grades to conform to Mime
sota's old spring wheat standards.
In letter to members of the ag-
ricultural committee of the lower
house of congress, the Minnesota
Farm Bureau federation. this week
pointed out that the bill is support
ed by the whole grain producing re-
gion Of the central. west. The ac~
tion Of the midwest farm bureau
conference, representing the Dako-
tas, Wisconsin, Ohio, Missouri, Him
ois, Indiana. Kansas, Nebraska and
Iowa, proves that Minnesota farmers
are not asking special favors, and
that other grain states have no OBJ
lection to- changes in spring wheat
grades, the letter says.
+. The Minnesota federation also out
lined specific remedies, urging speedy
legislative action to put them into
effect. The complete statement
with it's supporting evidence was
presented to all members of the joint
congressional committee, under Rep
resentative Sydney Anderson, which
is investigating agricultural cpndi-
tions.
Five recommendations were laid
before congress by the Minnesota
federation, as follows:
-a'Finanee-Credit facilities must be
adjusted to the needs of agricultural
production and financing The 80 to
80 day loan suited to ordinary COM
mercial and Industrial enterprises is
not equally adapted, to the needs of
agriculture;> it puts the farmer under
a serious financial handicap as COM
pared to the manufacturer and mer-
chant.
transportation Railroad freight
rates must be reduced to level that
will restore the movement of the
necessities Of life, before the farm
ers' purchasing power can be re-
stored or the consumer can be bene-
flied by the decline in the original
selling price OF farm products.
Foreign Observation-Disclosures ag-
riculture cannot prosper unless it is
accorded the same tariff protection
that is accorded other American in
dustry. So .ong as the farmer is
compelled to buy on a protected
market, he must be allowed to sell
on a protected market, or be reduced
by competition with foreign peasants
and poems to a condition disastrous
and unthinkable.
neutrality-suspicious. of the
producers in distributing their prod
ucts is entitled to a fair trial in
open competition with the existing
system, and congress should enact
necessary clarifying legislation to
guarantee the right of the producer
and the consumer to this trial.

HAND SIGNALS FOR
 THE AUTOMOBUIST
Traffic Officers Pass Out New Set Fur nishcd by New Haven Club for
 Safety Week.

The New Britain tra fife officers have been furnished with a supply of auto mobile placards to hand out to the passing drivers in an effort to aid l the Safety First" week which went into effect today. The Automobile Club of New Haven is responsible for the new hand signal regulations and are issuing the cards. All motorists are urged to make use of the simple set furnished and by this method it is hoped to eliminate the many ac- cid Tents which are caused by the fail- ure of drivers to properly give the signals which show the way they wish to go.
 The little cards gives a dcmonstra- ton of four signals for left-drive autos
 which may be reversed for right drive cars. The signal for stopping
 is to extend the left arm straight out
 with fingers close together, and held
 stationary. For a left turn, the driv-
 CT will extend his arm and point with 'forefinger the direction he contem-
 plates to take. For a right turn, he
 will hold out his arm and make a
 rotary motion from the rear to the
 front and to back up, he will extend
 the arm and move it up and down
 from a horizontal position.

MONEY COLLECTED
 FOR TWO PLATOON
Proponents of Changed System fo. Fire Department Have Additional
 Argument for Counciimcn.

Hackers of the two platoon system for the fire department have prepar- ed figures relative to the tax phase of the question which they plan to have presented at "Wednesday even- ing's session.
 They point out that, whereas $36,- 900 was appropriated at the city meeting to defray the expense of the plan for six months, but $22,00o, ap- proXimateiy, will be required under the plan to be brought before the council "Wednesday. This, they show, is about three-fifths of the original appropriation. Figures from the collectors office show but $2SS.175 in taxes yet to be collected. That figure substracted from the tax-book figure of $1,995,292, shows $1,707,117 or about four-1ifths of the entire tax col fected. Since but three-fifths of the two platoon appropriation will be used and four-fifths of the tax has been collected, they point out that more than enough money for the sys- e.D is already in the city treasury.

THREE DAYS SINCE
 MURDER TOOK PLACE
(Continued From F'irs- Page).

(Continued From F'irs. Page). body having been taken in on a team. Teams drive in and out at all hourl and do not attract attention. If such was the case the murder might have occurred miles away. This theory the police do not believe. on the other hand. a crime such as this, would take place with littIo or no noise and would ba all over in Q few moments. Even if the victim did not die instantly. he would be unconscious and incapable of moving. The position of the body when found. with ono leg doubled under. would indicate that the man was left where he fell. Yet the ap- parent care in placing his hat in the crook of the left arm would indicate that tho murderera oid not leavo tho site where the body later was found until they knew their victim was dead. Attracted No Attention. If tho murdered real estate mans body was carried into the rear of the building from Main street, il must have been taken in between and 5:30 o'clock in the morning and life must have been extinct at the time. Patrolman Fe'fney was on duty on Main street until a. m. and employees of the livery passed there at 5:30. From 5:30 until the body was found. the carrying in of a dead man would have been apt to attract attention. Before f o'clock Policeman Feeney would have been likely to see 1t. An automobile driv- ing in during the night would at tract attention of livery employees. as would a team. it being part of their business to look after the wants of all callers. and it is likely had some one driven in from outside they would have been unable to es- cape notice.
 Probably Private Outfit.
 Since Wrinkle ordered a horse and carriage at a local livery for Friday morning and did not call for it. the outfit being kept waiting for him all day, coupled with the fact that the team he used was an attractive out fit. gives rise 10 the theory that 1t may have been a borrowed outfit. This again comes back to the ques- tion of the identity of the early morning caller Friday.
 Thought It Was Brother.
 A telephone call from some person in New York who declined to state his name, was received at the Herald office yesterday stating that Wrinkle had a wife in New York who knew nothing about the death of her hus- band. Further investigation supports the conclusion that the call came from Louis Friedman. of 1912 avenue NJ, Brooklyn. at whose home Mrs. Fred k. Wrinkle. wife of Constable Wrinkle and a brother of the dead man is visiting.
 Sergeant w. c. Hart and Patrol man Feeney. who have been work ing on the case were joined today by Detective Sergeant D. J. Richardson. who has just returned from a brief vacation at Point O'woods.
