 ''Brookhart had accused me of sit- ting in on the Wall street game and taking part in the recent denation of agricultural finances. The Senator will be compelled to go on the stand and not only prove every word of these charges, but tell all he knows about Wall street and it's game"
 Although declaring he is opposed to price fixing of products as the term is generally understood, Mere dith made a guarded admission that eventually price fixing in some form or other will be necessary.
 Please do not put me down as one who is advocating price fixing of farm products. because then my point cf view will not be correctly under stood" he said.
 Tt will be price fixing, but not as those who advocate price fixing want it,' Meredith continued.
 There will have to be price fixing of five or six of the staple farm products, such as wheat, corn, cot ton and wool, the price to be fixed year by year in accordance with the supply and demand. In other words. the price of these products will have to be fixed in advance at a figure that not only will guarantee a large and profitable return to the farmer, but still which will encourage him to raise the necessary amount of wheat and other products. If a surplus Is produced one year, then the price will have to be lower the next year so that a lesser amount will be pro- duced"

GREAT BRITAIN IS SEEKING ID SOLVE HOUSING PROBLEM
EnqIand At Present Is In Need Of 300,000 Houses For
 Working Men
By RALPH H. TURNER asRd Wire fo The ApR-HRrn1dl


 LONDON, August 26.-Three hun dred thousand houses are needed in England. That is the official esti- mate of the housing shortage, one Of the greatest problems that confronts the government today.
 The estimate, however, applies in general only to working class homes. It does not include the middle and up per class families who have almost as great difficulty in obtaining apart ments or houses, although they can be found if the prospective tenant will pay the price. This price fre- quently includes a premium as initial payment, followed by substantial rentals.
 It is the problem of the homeless working man, however, that mainly concerns the government and which has offered so much political capital to the labor party.

 Apartments, universally known here as flats" are scarce and in London generally command figures corresponding to New York rentals They may be obtained cheaper than the New York scale. but inYariabfy lack all the. modern conyeniences, plumbing achievements, etc, which are chara cteristic of the American home. Flats are especially in de- mand now among people whose in- come in the past enabled them to live in fair-sized town houses. In recent times, however, heavy tax+ stion and the shortage of domestic servants have forced many of these people to abandon their houses in favor of apartments. &
