Albert West, young man who
forged couple of checks on julius

stealing wheat. His true name is
Angelo Lund and he is now serving
two years in the penitentiary. He is
former sailor and was identified

BARNES SEES FARM
GAINS BY TREATIES
Former Grain Director Says
Skies Are Clearing at Home
and Abroad.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. March 21-Agriculture
can face the Immediate future with
every confidence that its chief prob
lens are assured Of solution and its
future is certain, julius H. Barnes,
former director of the United States
Wheat Corporation, said in speech
here.
Declaring that the treaties of the
armament conference constitute the
Worldwide treatment of worldwide
problems" Mr.. Barnes asserted that
the consequences of a possible re-
lection Of these treaties were APP
palling. He said that a result of re-
lection would be that 'the steady APP
exchange would be destroyed and re-
viving commerce thrown back to
chaos"
Making Remedies Effective.
mo industry would feel this result
again SO quickly as agriculture, and
surely there must be ratification of
this effort to provide the method of
making effective commercial and fl
nancial remedies" he declared.
THE American farmer can be told
today that the day Of opportunity
for agriculture has arrived. 1t can
be told that thrift and energy In
agriculture pursuits may now count
with confidence on the reward of
those fundamental qualities.
Industry may be told that on basis
of revived agriculture now assured, it
may begin to frame its productive
program afresh. At home and abroad
the skies are definitely. clearing. and
the record of progress in the healthy
restoration of our industries will be.
believe. day by day. increasingly
clear"
Reasons for Optimism.
Mr.. Barnes cited the following de-
Velopments rs the reason for his be-
lief that the chief problems of agri-
culture are assured of solution:
The consumer market abroad for
all products of farm and industry is
now reviving.
THE market for farm products at
home and for the products of our
industry is beginning to stir.
Wheat has increased 40 per cent.
sheep have doubled, cotton has
doubled. hogs have almost doubled.
steadily advancing foreign ex
change values show that the era of
exchange speculation has passed and
the era of legitimate export and i'm
port trade has begun.
"a Europe whose trade channels
were cut and closed by new from
cial flow across the boundaries by
trade agreements that are restoring
the healthy life of Europe.
Must Rendjust Burden.
"A Europe that conceived repara-
tons to be collectible beyond the
current productive capacity of peo-
pie is learning that the burden must
be readjusted to the limit of en-
durance.
"A Russia that is recovering from
it's destructive debauch of com
munism is plainly approaching saner
relations with the world.
Our national Congress has, per-
haps insufficiently, eased the sitting
pressure of taxation.
THE easy and happy thought that
government operation could spell re-
lief for all human distress has lost
its seductive charm"
Mr.. Barnes declared that 1t would
be unfair and unkind. in recording
the Improvement in farm position.

of the War Finance Corporation with
