REVIVAL OF u. S.
GRAIN CORPORATION
f IS URGED BY YOUNG

Washington, Jan. 13.-Congress1nan
George NJ. Young, North Dakota.
strongly urged the revival Of the u. S.
Grain corporation in the house today
with an enlargement Of it's powers of
regulation and control.
He said that in every former panic
or liquidation period the prices of all
commodities. manufactured or other
wise, we're reduced in price, including
farm machinery, clothing, shoes and
other n~ecessaries. He said manufac-
turing concerns had been getting cost
plus a profit. Mr.. Young also said the
farmers had q business which could
not be closed down excepting to go
into bankruptcy and that thus far it
had been impossible to secure an in
telligent control over the amount Of
farm production through co-opera-
ton. He maintained that the govern
ment could not take over the opera
ton Of American farms but could
remedy the situation through govern
ment regulation and control ini con-
nection. with the revival Of the U. S.
Grain corporation.
To make the plan feasible ard
workable and to guard against too
heavy a burden upon the U. 8. treas-
ury. Mr.. Young declared an intelli-
gent scheme OF acreage reduction
must be adopted ana enforced.

HASTY ACTION
ON CONFERENCE
Delay Expected In Deter.
mination Of Attitude To-
ward Genoa Farley

Washington, Jan. 12.-Determina-
ton of the administrations attitude
toward participation in the interna-
tlonal economic conference called to
meet; at Genoa in March may be de-
layed as Il result OF the resignation of
Premier BRAND of France. it was in
dicated today in high official circles.
1T is the intention oI the admins
tration to- avoid haste in deciding it's
course in connection with the econ
onic conference, absorbing to high Of
t~iciais, II it is believed that the
change in the French ministry will be
another factor to be considered be-
fore q decision as to this govern
ment's attitude Will be reached.
So far, the United States has not
agreed to participate in the Genoa
conference, it was said, at the state
department today in response to in
"uirics arising from the statement by
NJ. BRAND in the chamber Of deputies
at Paris Thai the American govern
ment had agreed to take part in the
meeting.
U. S. viii! Wait.
The administration however, is un-
derstood. to consider the resolutions
adopted by the Allied supreme coun-
Gil in calling the conference rs couch
ed in the terms of an invitation to the
United States to participate and to be
without division of opinion on its at
titude toward the present situation.N
Until the scope of the c~ontemplat-
ed conference discussions are known,
the United States also scarcely will be
able to determine the ACCESSIBILITY OF
taking part in the proceedings. in the
View of high officials, and for this rea-
son it is believed receipt of the agenda
for the meeting will be awaited be-
fore the different factors to be consid-
cred by the government in reaching
it's decision be studied.
Objection to the Genoa conference
was made today by Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
OF Labor, in a formal statement in
which he advocated the conference
idea but asserted that an economic
conference should be called by tho
fixed by the United States.
There is" he said. mo place in an
international conference for Lenine
and Trotzky," adding that his objec-
ton was to the action Of the Allied
supreme council which constitutes
recognition Of the Soviets as the de-
Iacto government Of Russia"
The call for the economic confer
ence, determined upon by former
Premier BRAND and Premier Lloyd
George at Cannes, was largely the re-
suit, it is understood, Of the convic-
ton reached by both prime ministers
that the United States government
would not take the initiative.
NJ. BRAND. while here, made care
full unofficial inquiries as to the atti-
tude of President Harding and of Sec
rotary Hughes. Mr.. Hoover, Mr.. Mel
Ion and others with the result that,
before his departure Nov. rs. he
formed the impression that If the
arms conference was a notable pont-
ical success for America there might
be a disposition to take the lead in
calling an International economic con-
ference to deal with the financial dis
orders OF Europe.
