Large Acreage In wheat.

The abandoned acreage sowed with
wheat last autumn was unusually large,
as reported by the Government OH
May !, but the crop condition was suf-
f,ciently good. being 5 per cent better
tnan month before. to forecast a yield
OF 5si,7e3.OOo bushels, or no more than
per cent. less than the complete out
turn in 1921. with farm labor and sup
ply costs lower than in the spring OF
last year, the chances are excellent for
a spring wheat planting greater than
a year ago, and an even break on the
weather from now to harvest time
should permit wheat crop of at least
normal proportions at prices permitting
the growers the best profit since the
crop of 1919 was sold. The strong un-
dertone of the demand for old wheat
was displayed last week in a single
days advance of more than cents
a bushel in the May option at Chicago.

The New York herald., 1922-04-20

New York rests in a peculiar way on
the broad basis OF the prosperity of the
whole country. If time proves that
lower rates are consistent with national
welfare. the elastic clauses OF the new
bill protect the great consuming public
by providing regular and effective
means for reducing rates without a
general revision of the tariff. Tho bill
authorizes the President to modify tariff
rates either upward or downward within
prescribed limits and in accordance with
definite rules laid down by Congress so
that the rates may at all times conform
to existing conditions. The bill should
stabilize business.
"The growing Importance OF foreign
trade in our life Is recognized. The
principle of protection to home industry
has been extended TO our foreign trade.
Effective provisions have been adopted
to assure cur overseas commerce equal
ity of opportunity and protection
against discriminatory measures. The
President has been given power to inn
pose additional duties on the whole or
any part OF the imports into the United
States from any country which dis
eliminates against our overseas COM
merce.

bill has ever before DONE"

roo MUCH GOLD IN u. S.,
SAYS II. "A. E.. CHANDLER
Economist Warns Of Period Of
Initiation.

That another period Of imitation. with
the cost OF living soaring beyond the
high peak OF 1920, will affiict the United
States within the next fourteen or six
teen months unless we dispose OF our
surplus gold reserve is the opinion OF
the best financial minds of Europe and
America, according to Prof. Henry A. r.
Chandler, economist of the National
Bank OF Commerce In New York. who
addressed the Bankers Forum at the
Pennsylvania Hotel last night.
Prof. Chandler said there were .rree
ways In which we could get Europe to
take our surplus gold: Cancel or defer
payment of all intergovernmentaI debts,
invest capital In Europe and import Eu-
ropean goods. Then we might expect
the European nations to return to the
gold standard of currency and 1t would
be possible to get rid of $500, ,0O0.0 900
to s1,000,000, 900 that we now possess
over and above our normal gold supply.
THE stage Is all set for another tre-
mendous imitation" he said. "Our po-
tential expansive power Is eleven and a
half times our surplus gold reserve. or
at least s11,5oo. .000.0 .000."

arrival was the signal for the opening

Immediately after the bill is read the
question of policy will be taken up. THIS

Tho Republican tariff bloc met to-day
and decided to stand by the schedules
included in the Senate finance bill with
the exception of the duty on manganese
and magnesite, which the group wants
Increased. These articles are used IN
the manufacture of steel, and Western
producers say their effort to have tho
duty raised Is being fought by, the steel
trust The bloc adheres FIRMLY to the
agricultural schedules.
1--WE believe" said Senator Goodng
udaho). chairman OF the bloc, that
agricultural interests are well taken
care of In this bill. In many instances
Eastern agricultural interests are more
snsistent for higher duties than are
Western farmers Maine wants higher
duty on potatoes, white New York asks
more on eggs and butter.
Senator Calder (N. Y.) said to-day:
'"rhe bill has been written not in the
interest OF any class or group OF citi-
zens but OF national security and pros
perity. We are confronted with unprece-
dented conditions. Business is depressed
at home and the force of competition
from abroad is difficult to measure.
1T will be easier in the future to
lower rates. IL they prove too high, than
to restore industries destroyed by for
oiyn competition made doubly severe by
deprecated currencies and a desperate
effort of foreigners to capture our rich
markets. The rates of duty in the bill,
arc protective, not prohibitive. II en-
acted 1t will therefore be the most ade-
