forecast helped to depress the market
to the farmers ruin. Secretary Wal
lace himself has said that thousands
of farmers in his section will be rem
dered bankrupt on the present crop Of
wheat.
Estimate Was Below.
The departments August estimate Of
production was 2S,000,000 bushels be-
low the July estimate, but representa-
tives of the wheat farmers say that it
was the July estimate which slumped
the price beyond recovery. They also
say that the latest estimate is too
high, both for this years production
in the United States and world produc-
ton and carry-over.
So it comes about that many farm.
ers' spokesman are willing to let Mr..
Hoover take the markets to his orphan
asylum in the hope that Mr.. Wallace
can then do better job by crop esti-
mates and warehouse regulations.
There is, apparently very littl- re-
sentiment tow.rd Secretary Wallace
himself. Nobody among the sentries
doubts the genuineness Of his interest
in the welfare of the farmer.
The resignation of Assistant Secre-
tary Pugsley and the reorganization
of the state relation service are said
to afford favorable opportunity for
the further changes now expected.
Summing it all up" said a farmer
who occupies one Of the lookout boxes
in Washington, "the bureau of agri-
cultural economics was to be the Moses
to lead us out of bondage.

veyed that the government under the
proposed plan is getting deeper into
the shipping business and that Adj
rect operation" means much more
government in business than hereto
fore. The United States Chamber Of
Commerce on Monday of this week
warned the President against get
ting further involved in shipping
which it was argued should be- put
into private hands. a{ ~ =
What the new. plan Intends how
ever is simply a more efficient use
of government funds and facilities,
using methods that have been sue
cessful in private business. The
plan contemplates placing the entire
fleet in such condition that it may
become more saleable than it is to-
day. Most of the. bids for the ships
thus far made by private concerns
have been too low in the opinion of
the shipping board to be accepted
though some ships unquestionably will
be sold in the Pacific trade. ~
Far from getting deeper into gov
eminent operation, the plan approved
by President Harding looked toward
the extrication of the government
from the shipping business. The
special committee which is to exam
inc the plan is said to be in sympa-
thy with that objective, Unless some
unforeseen objection is found the
plan will go into effect at once
though considerable pressure is being
exerted to influence the shipping
board practically to give the ships
away to private interests, something
which Congress would investigate at |
once and disapprove very much as
was the case when the first attempt |
vas made to sell the useless wooden |
;hips.

posed policy by formal vote shortly
before Mr.. Harding left Washington
on his western trip. The only thing
that has remained has been the work
ing out of the details of the new
plan.
1t has been said ut the White
House that the President wishes to
be assured of the legality Of the new
plan and that he might ask the at.
torney general for an opinion.
The general counsel of the ship
ping board has fully approved the
plan and it is known that the De
partpent of Justice looks upon it in
much the same way.
What then is the purpose of the
special committee? The general sur
mise is that Mr.. Coolidge merely
wants these men to be, advised of the
nature of the plan so that they may
give their judgment on it as bust
ness matter. Few men in public life
have had the business experience of
Andrew w. Mellon, secretary of the
treasury. Mr.. Hoover, as secretary
Of commerce, has IN interest in the
proper development of American ex-
port trade. The chairman of the
Interstate Commerce Commission has
authority to deal with questions of
rail land water rates so that the rail-
roads can give lower freight rates to
goods transferred to and from Amer
lean ships. The members of the
Senate and House committees are
naturally interested in learning what
appropria tons will be needed for the
new plan. President Coolidge him
self is anxious that there be economies
practiced and that the plans have the
whole hearted support of everybody
concerned when put into. operation.
Unfortunately there has been a.
misuse of words in describing the
plan. The impression has been con-

The bureau of which DIR. Taylor is

year ago by the consolidation of the

agement. In a large measure the con-
solidation was diplomatic move to
surround the markets work with other
activities in such way that reasscmb-
ling ,theold bureau of markets and
transferring it to Hoover's department
would be difficult. The move was sue
cessful and DR.. Taylor, who is credited
with having engineered it. is said to
have become Secretary Wailace's chief
official adviser.
DIR. Ball on the surface has had very
little direct connection with the eco
nOmic activities of the department.
He was assistant secretary for a few
months at the end of Secretary Mere
dith's term. When that administra-
ton ended DR.. Ball prepared to return
to his home in the northwest and pub
licly announced his departure.
A shift occurred over night and DR..
Ball emerged as the superior of the
chiefs of various scientific bureaus.
Sentries in Washington do not hesitate
to say that DIR. Balls appointment
came at the behest of DR.. Taylor.
Has Not Been Going Right.
The bureau of agriculture econom-
les. which includes the bureau of mar
kets, has not worked to the satisfac- |
ton of those whose business it is to |
interpret government. activities for |
the benefit of farmers. Not a great |
deal was said about dissatisfaction I'M
til the wheat situation became acute. |
Wheat farmers had expected to put |
a large part of their surplus grain in |
warehouses and to borrow money on
the warehouse receipts. An amend
ment to warehouse law passed at
the last session of Congress, provided
the money for financing it.
When the price of wheat dropped be-
low 81 bushel and the farmers were
ready to warehouse they found that
they were unable to do so because the
Department of Agriculture had failed
to promulgate regulations as provided
for in the law. All the efforts to speed
up the issuance of the regulations thus
far have failed. A note Of bitterness
crept into the complaints few days
ago when it became known that, with
an over-supply of wheat pouring from
the thresher spouts, the bureau, ag-
economies was concerning
itself with warehouse regulations for
peanuts, crop that is still in the
ground.
Dissatisfaction was expressed, too,
with the crop forecasting work, which
was merged into the bureau over which
DR.. Taylor presides. -he American
Cotton Growers Association has ham,
mered this work consistently ever since
DIR. Taylor took charge. Recently
some of the big agricultural journals of
the East have Joined in the attack.
However, the Middle West expressed
no dissatisfaction until dollar wheat
began to hurt.
Now there are rumblings from that
section that the department over-esti-
mated production at a time when the

sbake-up in the Department, of Agri-
culture is said to be brewing.
The machinery of markets will be
transferred from the Department of
Agriculture to the Department of Com
merce under the administration OF
President Coolidge unless Secretary
Wallace can speedily reorganize the
economic activities of his department
60 as to plaeate the farmer leaders.
Moreover. it would not be surpris-
ing il two men. heretofore considered
Secretary Wallace's right and left
hand men, would resign. They are DR..
II. G. Taylor, chief of the bureau of
agricultural economics; and DIR. E.. D.
Hall, bureau of scientific work.
A determined effort, to effect the
transfer of the bureau of markets to
the Department of Commerce was
made at the outset of the Harding ad-
ADMINISTRATION. Commercial interests
generally favored It: Secretary of
Commerce Hoover has always been
credited with the desire to have this
bureau under his direct supervision.
Secretary Wallace was able to tri-
umph, however, mainly because he had
the undivided support of the agricul-
tural interests. .-t
That support now is entirely lacking,
according to expressions of agricul-
tural leaders here. 1t is charged that
the economic agencies of the govern
ment under the Department of Agri-
culture have made hash of the farmers
interests at the critical time and that
crop estimating, warehouse regulation
and other activities affecting the farm
ers' finances probably would be i'm
proved by permitting the markets
work to go to the Department of
Commerce.
