WALLACE CONFERS .
WITH HARRIS ON
STATE WAREHOUSES;
BY THEODORE TILLER
Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
408 Evans Building,

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 70.
Secretary Wallace, of the department
of agriculture, and Senator Harris,
of Georgia, conferred Saturday aft
ernoon concerning the proposal to
broaden the warehouse regulations
so that pecans, syrup and other
Georgia products may be stored.
Secretary Wallace said the depart.
ment is developing warehouse stor
age as rapidly as funds will permit.
Senator Harris announced he would
offer an amendment to the agricul
tural bill allowing $4,000 more than
Is now carried for this service.
Secretary Wallace has informed
Senator's Harris and Walter f..
George that DR.. J. S. Caldwell, in
charge of the fruit and canning in
vestigations of the bureau of plant
industry, would attend the proposed
conference in Macon Of representa-
tives of that industry.
M. FELTON, Hatcher, Of Macon, =
in conference with the two Georgia
senators regarding the conference
which has the support Of the Macon
Chamber Of Commerce and the Geor-
| gia Peach Growers Exchange.
Mr.. Harris and Secretary Wallace
also discussed today drainage Of
Georgia swamp lands under direc-
ton Of federal agents in cooperation
with the states. All funds now APP
ptopriated are devoted to western
Instead of southern lands.
A request for more comprehensive
market news service than has been
available in the past and to under
take to furnish official shipping in
spection for the Georgia peach crop
was made by Senator Harris, who
said he was in communication with
j. G.. Carlisle, manager Of the Geor-
gia Peach Growers Exchange at
Macon. Secretary Wallace said the
demand for inspection service of the
peach crop in Georgia, a large part
of the watermelon crop in Georgia
and Florida, truck and tomato crops
in Alabama and Mississippi was a.
more recent development, but that
! limited appropriations would curtail
the departments desire to promise
| inspection service to all of the ship
ping districts even though the appli-
| cants may be ready to pay fees equal
| to it's entire cost
