Kansas City and elswhere. and these
cities are waiting for Omaha TO take
the lead.
Up to Chambers.
"If the chambers of commerce are
to justify their existence" said Mr..
Kennedy, they must do something
to save the farmer in his hour OF
need. No movement can be OF perma-
nent value unless 1t arouses the coun-
try to the realization that the farmer
has been bearing the brunt. We can
help the farmer by this temporary
means while he has got to sell. but
this is only damming the stream Of
economic law.
IT we don't legislate TO give the
farmers a fair show, they are going
to legislate for themselves. l do not
favor a reduction in farm production,
some crops and more of others. Great
er diversification offers the farmer op-
portunity to help himself. But the
present crop is the immediate emer-
gency, and we must do all we can to
help meet 1t and save the west from
heavy loss"
The advice OF practical grain men
was needed, Mr.. Kennedy declared,
and he called on y. r. updike. who
advanced the plan for buying -four.
Speculation Opposed.
"I think we first ought TO define
what Wa are trying 20 do. 'Mr Updike
said. whether the object il to put
wheat up temporarily or permanent
ly. IT won't do any good to put up
the price temporarily unless we go
farther. One OF the quickest ways
would be for everybody who can 70
buy barrel OF -four Immediately. To
buy 1000 bushels OF wheat would not
have any permanent effect. This
should not bs done with tho idea OF
money in speculation.

London, July 20.-The cabinet. at
an extraordinary session this after
noon, ratified the draft OF the British
reply to the German note on repara-
tions.
The memorandum and the covering
letter are being forwarded tonight to
the allies and the United States,
Japan and the foreign offices of the
neutral powers.
The usual source of information at
the foreign office have been hermeti-

while the reply does not demand that
Germany cease its passive resistance
