WIRELESS STEERED SHIP
HIT BY AIRPLANE BOMB
Test Proves Better Exhibition of
Mechanical Control Than of
Accuracy of Navy Bombers.
,,o Associ.tad presx

BY the ASSOclhteu Frekt.
LONDON, August 13.-Moving at
fourteen knots an hour, the old battle
ship Agamemnon, steered by wireless
was put out of action this week by a
bomb dropped from an airplane at an
altitude of 5000 feet.
Bombing trials were carried out by
six big bombers. and the missile that
struck the Agamemnon was one of the
two direct hits made out of about 100
bombs dropped, although ten fell within
twenty feet of the vessel.
It was a better exhibition of wireless
steering than of bombing. for the old
battleship lodged about. responding to
every order sent by wireless from a
destroyer more than mile away. Con-
sidering the stormy weather prevailing
and the altitude of the attacking planes,
the naval experts consider the trial to
have been successful.

for an immediate special session OF
Congress to provide for relief for the
nations wheat growers was urged
upon President Coolidge in telegram
sent by the American Wheat Growers
Association, Inc. the largest associa-
tion Of wheat growers in the country.
The telegram was signed by officers
of the association and trustees of the
nine state wheat growing associa-
tions which compose the parent body.
In its communication to the Presi-
dent the American Wheat Growers
Associated advocated immediate legis-
lation authorizing the establishment
of a federal agency to purchase
wheat in the open market when IL
reaches price lower than i.75 a
busheI. as a means of stabilizing this
market.
Cannot stand Another Year.
Reports from all states show that
wheat growers are unable to with
stand another year of present prices
George c. Jewett, general manager.
declared last night. Mr.. Jewett stated
that at present there are twelve state
wheat-growing associations. nine of
which act through the American wheat
growers organization.
The need of the wheat market is
for immediate, temporary action" Mr..
Jewett said. There is no thought
of any permanent fixing of prices by
the government. Before the next
mark keting season the cooperative
associations will be in control of more
than two-thirds OF the wheat grown
in the heavy wheat states. and from
that time the farmers will be in
position to determine by their own
power that domestic wheat prices are
set on a plane that Will afford salts
factory returns"
The nine states affiliated with the
association are Colorado. Idaho, Min
nesota, Montana, Nebraska. North
Dakota, oregon, South Dakota and
Washington.
