ed by practically all of the delegates,
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace

being received from 95 per cent of
those invited, the secretary said, also
contained strong commentator for
the idea behind the conference.
President Harding, no doubt, will
open the conference, Mr.. Wallace
said today. The delegates Will meet,
he continued. without any previously
arranged program and whatever is
accomplished will come out Of the
conference itself and by it's own
initiative. Ali of the experience, in
formation and resources of the agri
cultural department, however, he
said, will be placed at the disposal
Of the delegates.
The conference, the secretary said.

agricultural life of the nation, with
representatives of allied industries
dependent on agriculture and a coup
Of outstanding men representing the
public. With them will sit the joint
congressional agricultural inquiry
commission which will give the dele
gates the results of it's work, MIR.
Wallace said.
Lots of friends are retained by
our not saying the smart things we
might have. said.
