Carson Gives Birds-Eye View of Growth Of
Americas Business Barometer"

ito N.gis. s64.5i3. Thru big profits,
the corporation made water worth

The aggregate net profits u the
steel trust. available for dividends.
for the 10 years. 1912 10 1921. were
81. 0s7.i77.is5.
Like Topsy. the steel trust just
grew by sucking on profits Of $50
per cent over 10 years, Or 70 per cent
year.
And yet this same steel industry
came 10 congress asking for a new
tariff increase a year ago. They got
what they wanted.
Senator Underwood OF Alabama,
democratic floor leader and a steel
mngnaie. said.
Il am In the business myself ]
represent q great iron and steel dis
irict would not willingly harm a
people that represented. but neither
would l willingly betray a people 1
represented by taxing them unjustiy
for special interests. / know this
iron and steel schedule and know
that Il is fraud and shame upon
the people OF this country. know
that IL is not even in the interest Of
the industry in the end"
Now comes the day Of warnings
justified,
The shortage IN this country Is
about made up. Prices got 10 high
the people stopped buying. Even the
government put on the stop signal.
Without so great demand from this
country. the steel corporations have
20 begin figuring on export trade.
But they find the tariff which
gave them tremendous profits when
consumers in this country had 10 buy.
may now cause them trouble. For.
elgn competitors become real com.
po,liors. They underprice our steel
industry.
II means that for the steel trust.
rich and prosperous. there ls cause
for alarm. II looks Ike the tariff
wall might smother the steel trust
In the future. And then-why then
well have a revision Of the tariff to
help the trust again. We viii hear
rumblIngs Of II IN the next congress.

ADVOCATE LESS
WHEAT ACREAGE
New Wheat Council Says
CurtaiIment Is Necessary

Reduction Of wheat acreage has
become a necessity, in the opinion OF
the Wheat Council Of the United
states. The council was organized
AZ the conference Of wheat men. held
in Chicago. June 20. and was ineor.
ported June 20. The organization
has been perfected and the newly.
elected officers have issued a state.
ment reviewing the wheat situation,
and advocating curtailment Of pro.
duction.
"a survey Of domestic md world
conditions in the production and
marketing OF wheat" the statement
says. demonstrates that the stabill.
zaiion OF the domestic price al a prof
liable level and the consequent i'm.
proyemcnt OF the condition OF the
wheat farmer Is dependent upon
bringing tho control OF the domestic
wheat price within the borders OF the.
United States. For this three things
are necessary: Reduced acreage and
production. orderly marketing and In.
creased consumption.
Under the stimulation OF the world
war the wheat acreage OF the United
states was enormously extended. For
the past three years wheat acreage
in the United States has exceeded
the average acreage. 1s0s-lel5. by
more than 1900. 900 acres. This Is
equivalent 10 an excess production
OF from 100000 TO 200,00o.o0O
bushels annually.
"The directors Of the Wheat conn-
ell. after full consideration OF tho
facts. are fully convinced that a re.
ductlon In the wheat acreage and
heat production in this country IS
absolutely essential 20 profitable
Price for wheat TO the American
wheat grower.
THE distressed conditions existing
in many wheat growing sections OF
the country, which are having a
tendency TO force into the market
vast volumes OF wheat which cannot
ba readily absorbed, must inevitably
tend to produce lower prices, which
more orderly marketing might
avoid"
Headquarters Of the council have
been established in Chicago. and the
new officers are as follows: sydney
Anderson. president; Harvey j.
seoncc. vice president. o. f.. Brad.
flute. treasurer. Grosyenor Dave, ex.
sr.,tive vice Y,reSldnnt and C. T.
