WALLACE BLOCKS
PRICE INCREASE
Secretary Suspends Proposed
20-Cent Raise in Corn
Fed to Livestock.

Secretary of Agriculture Henry C.
Wallace yesterday issued an order
suspending a proposed increase of
20 cents a bushel in the price of
corn fed to livestock at the Indian
apolis stock yards scheduled to go
into effect tomorrow. At the same
time a hearing was set for April IT
to be held at the Federal court room,
Indianapolis, to consider the pro-
posed new rate.
In a telegram to the Belt Railway
and StOckyards Company, operators
of the yards. giving notice of the
suspension for thirty days pending
the hearing, Secretary Wallace de-
clared that the increase appeared
to be unreasonable. Although the
price of corn has gone up recently.
the Secretary did not believe the
rise warranted 2O-cent increase in
the charge for feeding to livestock
at the yards. His action was taken
under the authority conferred upon
him by the packers and stockyards
act Protests from livestock men
affected by the new rate have been
received by the department.

DENBY STRESSES
QUALITY OF NAVY
Equal in Size, But Highest in
Efficiency Is Aim of
Secretary.

That the American navy. reduced
by the arms conference, should be
equal in size but superior in quality
to any other navy. was the opinion
of Secretary of the Navy Edwin
DENLY in his address at the banquet
of the American Society of Naval
Engineers held at the willard Hotel
last night. Senator L. H. Ball. OF
elaware, agreed with the Secrc-
tary of the Navy. in supporting the
principle set down by the naval
agreement of the Washington con-
ference.
ut is our duty to make the navy
granted by that conference an ef-
ficient cooperating navy" Ball
said. ready at any time to protect
properly the interests Of this nation
whether it be our merchant marine
or our citizenship. Only after the
highest efficiency is established. can
the minimum navy be adopted with
safety thus insuring the success of
the naval agreement"
The Assistant Secretary of the
Navy, Theodore Roosevelt. spoke of
the safety in the existing ratio as
set down by the Washington con-
ference. He lauded the cessation of
competitive naval construction.
In speaking of the attitude of Con-
gress toward the navy. Representa-
tive l.. p. Padgett, OF Tennessee.
stressed his personal approval of the
recent conference. but lamented the
fact that the limitation was to start
with the scrappinG of the best of
the navy's machines rather than the
gradual elimination of the worst.
That the merchant marine should
be developed along with the scrap
ping of the fighting fleet was the
opinion of Homer L. Ferguson,
president of the Newport News
Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Com
pany. Mr. Ferguson who is one of
the pioneers of the ship building in
dustry in this country, declared
America should be the carrier of it's
own trade. The only way to in
sure absolute equality of navies is
to insure an equality in merchant
marines" said Mr.. Ferguson.
Admiral r. E. Coontz spoke on
the personnel of the Navy, Rear
Admiral X. J. Robinson praised the
education given in the American
Navy.
