CLAIM BIG SURPLUS
Cause Of Low Wheat Price, Say
Two Senators.

Washington, D.C.-ln disagree
ment with Senator Gooding and
some other senators from wheat
growing states, Senator Stanfield
Of Oregon, after conference Satur-
day with President Coolidge, de-
clared himself in opposition to
calling a special session OF
congress to deal with the wheat
situation. In discussing the stu
alton, Senator Stanfield said, in
part:
IL cannot see how wheat grow
srs would receive any material
oeneft by a special session oi
congress. Before legislative
machinery could be put into
motion, wheat would have, to
large extent, passed out Of wheat
farmers hands into those OF specu-
lators. Therefore, it would only
be waste of the taxpayers money
and would not relieve the farmer;
then to fix a minimum price or
government control OF surplus
would tend to stimulate and en-
courage greater wheat production,
when there can be no doubt that
the wheat growers present trouble
Of low price is the result OF over
production of wheat.
"The wheat growers ultimate
recovery depends upon the balanc-
ing of production to a point OF not
over-supplying the demands OF the
market.
"Senator Smoot, who has just
returned from Europe, stated. 10
me that he believes Europe, with
its bounteous crops OF this yesr,
can take care Of its own needs
without any assistance from the
outside world. This stimulation
has automatically limited the
United States wheat growers'
market until it now appears that
for some years to come the United
States wheat growers must depend
upon home consumption for utill-
cation of their product.
