Sentiment against cotton has grown
the past ten days as direct outcome
of increasing crop estimates. With
indications of 11,700.O00 to 12.20O.00O

MEREDITH REVIEWS
WHEAT SITUATION
Ex-Secretary of Agriculture
Sees Hope for Farmers in
Spite of Price Drop.
By the Associated Press.

DES MONIES, Iowa. July 2S.-Gen-
eral effect of the drop In wheat
prices to below a dollar a bushel has
been exaggerated in the minds of
many people, both as regards its
effect upon farmers generally and
upon business other than farming.
declares Z. T. Meredith, Secretary Of
Agriculture during President VIII
sons administration. I'm a statement
to the Associated Press.
Those that grow wheat exclusive
ly or nearly so, and consequently
are dependent upon the return from
their wheat crop almost entirely for
their income" he said. have had
their incomes cut by the recent de-
BUSINESS of the situation, so far as
they are concerned. Is a matter of
interest ans Importance to every
other Interest of the nation. labor
as the farmer. Certainly steps should
Immediately be taken to prevent
such situation being again forced
upon a group of people who are pro-
ducing one of our staple products.
Corn Offsets Wheat Losses.
The entire income American farm
ers receive from wheat. however, rep
income of the farmers as goaup
Then that commodity which repre-
sents 10 per cent of the total income
Is only 10 per cent lower in price
than Ii was year ago. 1t appears,
then. that so far as the price of wheat
alone rs concerned, the present price
of corn Is. as much higher than the
price for that grain a year ago as
wheat Is lower, and inasmuch as there
are more than three times as many
bushels of corn produced as there are
of wheat, this very increase in the
price of corn greatly exceeds the
shrinkage in wheat. Whether corn
will maintain its high price l do not
know, but If ii does. those who are
both corn and wheat growers, which
worse situation than they were a
year ago. and many of them are in
a much better situation.
TT is interesting to note that 10
per cent drop In wheat 90 cents a
busheD is only equal to but 81 per
cent OF the wealth produced each
year by our dairy cows, and that the
American hen produces more new
wealth than the total wheat crop
alone.
Sees Better Times Ahead.
"I firmly believe that a practical
method can be devised and put into
operation whereby wheat growers
ana otHtI idTHleTs can pToouct tntiT
crops with an assurance of receiving
at least a certain price per unit of
their production, as is the situation
with those who manufacture certain
products. so that those who cannot
produce at that price may know IL In
advance rather than afterward.
I'm other words. the law of supply
and demand. which means supply,
productive possibilities and consump-
tive demand, shall be interpreted to
the farmers in advance, rather than
obliging them to operate in the dark
as is now the case. 1t is pressing
demand of national Importance"

COAL STRIKE STILL

Five Weeks More in Which to

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, July 2S.-The "ges-
lures" involved in the adjournment
of the conference of coal miners and
operators seeking to reach wage
agreement in the anthracite fields are
not final. Practically five weeks still
remain in which to reach settle
ment before the present agreement
expires. September /. In fact, they
may be preliminary to agreement for
such moves have been incidental to
practically all previous adjustments.
These gestures" however. will
serve to bring out answering ges-
lures from the public and the United
States Coal Commission. In the
meantime the operators continue to
pile up coal, the miners continue to
pile up wages and the Coal Commits
sion continues to pile up documentary
data.
The city of Boston has already
made an answering gesture by send
ing representative to bargain Tor

municipal needs to be sold at cost
to citizens. During the strike last
year some operators in the anthracite
fields are known to have declared
privately that they would welcome
government operation of the mines
along the lines on which the govern

roads. provided they were assured OF
an adequate return on their invest

Oil Men Seek Relief.
In the meantime oil men, with mill
Hons of barrels of oil in storage, are
looking hungrily at the markets now
dominated by the anthracite dealers.
Independent oil producers iC the mid
continent fields saw little hope for
immediate relief in announcement
that some twenty refiners in the
mid-continent field would close their
re1ineries during August This move,
the producers OF crude lntimated,
might permit the absorption of gas
oline by the trade and maintain the
price of that product. but would do
little toward reducing the tremen-
dous surplus of crude which is taxing
every storage capacity or toward
checking further production and
drilling.
John D. Reynolds of the Western
Petroleum Refiners' Association at
Tulsa, said that recently worked out
plans for the reduction of oil output
in the mid-continent field now are
75 per cent in effect. The reduction
of 20 cents barrel for crude in the
Cement and Healdon fields and Of
expected to help the industry cut
, down production.
New England Employers Pleased.
The complete collapse of the tele-
phone operators strike in New Eng
land is felt by large industrial en-
ployers in that section to have had a
stimulating effect on the labor sit
uation. They feel that had the strik-
ers gained their demands for a six

Wool Buying Resumed.
The sales of 100000 pounds OF 1928
wool at Sanderson, Tex, to Draper

tion of wool buying on western
ranges. which has been almost at a
