CALLS FARM FARLEY
Harding Directs Wallace to En-
gineer Huge Conference to be
. Held Late in January.

| Washington. Dec. 3o.-President
Harding tonight directed Secretary
Wallace of the agricultural depart
nent to call national conference to
consider the agricultural problems
of the American people"
While it was LETT to the secretary
whom to call. the President sug-
gested that along with farmers, rep
resentatlves OF allied industries and
those dependent upon the farm be
Included.
Most of the confcrees probably
will be members of farm organiza-
tions, state commissioners OF agri-
culture and representatives from az
ricultural colleges, but the packers,
the millers, country bankers, grain
dealers, implement manufacturers
and Dealers the elevator men, the
rallroaus-even the much lamDasted
miadleman-willh have hands in the
conference.
1t IS the belief Of the Presiden; and
Secretary Wallace that by getting
together not only representatives. OF
the farmers and cattle raisers, l.ut
of those who deal directly with them,
more concerted effort TO relieve the
situation can be made.
Inc conference, 1t is expected, Will
agree upon some program whereby
the government can assist in rellcv-
ing the present depression more than
it now is dong. Inns program the
administrator will get behind III
congress and back to the limit
1t was made plain at the White
House today, in announcing the COM
ing conference, tnat the Information
it Woulu aduuCc was Tor the benefit
o. congress as well as the admins
tratlol. In other words, congress Is
expected to deal with the situation
promptly. More than that, 1t is
hoped that aside from legislation,
otncr methods OF lettering the farm
situation can be worked out through |
cooperative efforts by the farmers |
and the allied industries.
The conference is certain to have
one result--renewed attention and
pressure for still further reduction Of
railroad rates ON farm products. The
administration did not say so, but
inc TACT lllat TdllTOaQ llcduS are "
be invited is indicative that such
move is certain to come up. Trans
portation charges, more economical
means of marketing and farm credits,
probably will be the three subjects
most widely discussed. 1t is known
Secretary Wallace iirmy believes
that in the agriculture future there
must be more cooperative market
ing. President Harding has accept
ed his view.
Just bow many will sit in the con-
ference is. not certain yet. 1t is
probable there will be more than
two hundred at first The date has
not been set, but is will come in the
after part January, about the time
Inc arms con terence is expected to
conclude it's work. Whatever it ac-
the conference will bring
together the most representative
BODY ever gathered with the sole
purpose of seeing what can be done
. lift agriculture out Of the rut

CHITA PRESSES ITS CASE
But Farley is Not Inclined to Take
Charges Seriously.

Washington, Jan. 2--While vir
tually all the machinery OF the arm:
conference stood still over the New
Years holiday, the unofficial delega
ton of the far eastern republic took
advantage of the lull to press theil
charges of secret Franco japanese
understanding for perpetuation OF
Japanese control in Siberia.
The delegates declared proof OF
their charges, already denied by the
French and Japanese delegates, could
| be obtained by examination of origi-
nal documents in the archives of the
! far eastern government in Chita.
They suggested such all inquiry be
made by Americana consular Off
Gals. in order that the results might
be known to the conference when it
takes up consideration of Siberian
To emphasize the French public
denial made yesterday, Albart Sar-
raut. head of the French delegation,
formally notified Secretary Hughes,
as chairman of the conference, that
the charges were wholly without
foundation in fact. The French gov
crnment, M. Sarraut said in. writ
ten communication to the conference
head, had entered into no commit
ments regarding Siberia except those
of which the United States already
was aware.
The naval experts, alone. worked
through the holiday, giving their day
to a study of the technical details re-
naming to be settled in connection
with the naval Limitation agreement.
1t was said their deliberations were
at such state tonight that all the
loose ends of the settlement probably
could be cleared away within few
days. If questions of policy raised
by the submarine regulation propos-
ais can be settled in time, the con-
ference leaders believe the 5-power
treaty for naval limitation can be put
into definite form this week.
The question of proposed restric-
tons on submarine warfare is regard
ed by all the delegations as most
troublesome of the naval problems
remaining unsolved.
With the naval settlement in final
form. there seems to be general con-
fidence that the far eastern slate can
be wiped clean in time to permit ad-
journment of the conference by about
the middle of January. The Shan
tung deadlock remains the greatest
barrier to far eastern accord. but
the Japanese expressed tonight re-
newed hope of a settlement and the
Chinese held to their refusal to re-
gard the present impasse as . final
failure to agree.

out in broad daylight shortly after

Lower Crop Values.

Washington, Dec. 2o.-Undauntee
by the tremendous shrinkage in
crop values, the American farmer is
planting almost as much as ever, the
wheat and rye planting estimates by
the department of agriculture Thurs
day showed.
In spite of the fact that the princi-
pal farm crops dropped almost so per
cent in value this year over 1920. the
winter wheat area sown. this year is
only IL per cent less than last year
while the rye planting was estimated
at gao per cent more than last year.
The winter wheat area sown this
iall totaled 44,2o3.ooo acres.
Last years total was 44,847, 900
acres.
The condition of winter wheat De-
cember 4 was 76. compared with 87.o
in 1920. and an average of So for the
past 10 years.
Rye sown tliis fall totaled S,I6l,ooo

MISSOURI NOTES

The place that the automobile has
taken in the industrial world is
shown by figures complied by the
Kansas City Chamber of Commerce.
The jobbing trade in autos and ac-
cessories in that city report business
amounting to nearly six and one-half
million dollars in the past year,
which was the highest amount of
any jobbing line in the city except
hay, grain and straw. According to
the report people in Kansas Cfty's
trade territory paid $27,337,36o more
for autos and accessories than they
did for groceries and canned goods
and $3o,453,375 more than they did
for agricultural implements and trac-
tors.
