The forced resignation of AI,9ul Powell
Davis, Director of the Reclamation st. lee
after Al years of service to the Govern
ment, is given added significance when
taken in connection with President Hard
ine's recent address at Spokane. In which
he discussed the problems of conservation
and reclamation. OF course President
Harding did not say anything definite on
the subject-he rarely does-on any sub
ject-but he indicated that the time had
come for a change In our conservation and
reclamation policy. and the change indi-
Gated was that there should be greater
development Of our natural resources. De-
Vehement is the word by which the pre-
datory interests seeking to grab these
natural recources cover up their real pur-
pose Of exploitation. Ii was with o plea
Of the development of our natural re-
sources that their exploitation under Sec
tary Ballnger was begun, and revived I'M
der Secretary Fall.
II President Harding intends to abandon
the conservation and reclamation policy SC
successfully carried on by President Roose'
welt, with the endorsement of the people
Of the West and the East. under the plea
Of development to permit the exploitation
Of the natural resources of the country by
the predatory interests, which for years
were fought off by Roosevelt. by Pin
chot and by Director Davis of the Re-
clamation Service, his surrender to the
special privilege classes will then be COM
plete. II h;s speech at Spokane means
anything at all. ii means this, and the
forced resignation Of Director Davis, Of the
Reclamation Service is consistent pre-
liminary step.

The EFFECTIVE Protection" OF
Farm Products.

As an answer to President Hardinss
statement in his speech at Hutchinson
Kansas. that "the combination OF effective
protection. easier credits, and the opera
ton Of the War Finance Corporation quick
ly arrested this downward trend tof prices
Of farm products) and started agriculture
on the upgrade once more. comes the
appeal of the Farm Bureau Federation for
some sort of governmental help to sta
bilize wheat and give the grower fair
return for his labor and investment The
price Of wheat at the farm now is avefas-
ing about 20 cents bushel-signihcantly
less than the cost Of production.
The protection" given to American ae-
riculture consisted Of the special tariff
approved May 81. 1921. and the Fordney-
McCumber law Of last September. Wheat
was selling in Chicago at an average OF
$l68 bushel (for No. 2 hard winter on
the day the special" tariff was signed
by the President. On May 81, 1928. wheat
sold in Chicago for SLIT a bushel. And
for the last two years the duty on wheat
has not been lower than 80 cents bushel
The protection" given to meats has
been almost as futile as a stimulant to
prices as the duty on wheat According
to the Department Of Agriculture. the prices
ofboes. cattle. sheep and chickens were los
per cen; lower on May is. 1928. than they
were on May is. 1922. before the Ford
ney-McCumber act was passed. with its
duties of from so cents to So hundred
weight on these animals and fowls and
on their meats. At the same time retail
prices which consumers had 10 pay were
higher than they were year ago.
Wool received protection" in the form
OF duty Of 81 cents a secured pound
the rate fixed by the Fordney- McCumber
profiteers' tariff last September. The De-
partment Of Agriculture reports that pro-
ducers of wool are unable TO get fair
return for their product and that buyers
indicate that their ideas Of value are 10
cents pound lower than the prices paid
at recent sales" Thirty cents a pound
has been offered for lambs wool in the
West, the Department Of Agriculture states
in a recent bulletin.
While the wool growers face an I'M
profitable market and further recession
in the value of their product, the Wool
Trust is increasing the prices Of Its output.
President William Wood. of the American
Wooden Company. declares that very
much higher prices" for wooden goods are
in prospect. and are even now being
quoted.
The Republican tariffs have been Of
little worth to the American farmer, but
have compelled him to pay $500, 900. 900 a
year more for what he buys than it has
given lin in higher prices for what he has
20 sell. according to expert econim;sts Of
the Fsrm Bureau liberation.
As for the "eae. cg,dits" that have
been provided FOR agriculture, the farmers

High Tariff Checks Buyiug-De-
cline In Activities.

Impartial authorities on financial and
industrial conditions say the United States,
at the beginning Of the second half Of the
year, is envisaeine a sharp decrease 10
activities of all kinds and may complete
1928 with loss Of all the gains made
thus far.
Unremunerative prices for agricultural
products. compared with excessive cost Of
manufactures consumed by agricultural
producers, and the resultant decline in the
purchasing power Of the farmers dollar.
are numbered among the principal factors
working to create the depression foretold
by these experts. The continuance Of low
prices for all the farmer has to sell. nota-
bly, wheat. Of which there is a big surplus.
will quicken the general decline Of trade
and industry. these writers say.
The high tariff was an artificial stimulus
to many kinds Of industry. but II has lately
begun to lose its power in this regard
while remaining a deterrent to general
buying. II is not forgotten that the tariff
added four billions a year to the cost OF
living at time when taxes were brake on
the country's recovery from the war.
