WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Stirred
by aggressive criticism from the dirt
farmers of the West, the Coolidge
administration is resolved to revise
and enlarge its plan for relief Of the
hard-hit agricultural regions, it was
learned today.
A plan for government purchase or
financing of the surplus crops, in
order that the farmers may in the
future have enough money in hand to
renew planting, is being devised by the
Secretary of Agriculture and the best
minds" of the country.
Though the plan may have to in
volve some of the "paternalism''
which the President scored in his
Chicago speech to the National Farm
Bureau Federation, some Of his per
sonal advisors concede that such a
step is becoming absolutely neces-
sary to appease the farmers. to stifle

Crane had become too suddenly af-
fable. Bertram did not like 1T; and
he liked 1t less. when he glanced at
Kitty Hewitt. She was gazing not
at him, but at Crane, with wide eyes.
Look here" she said to Crane.
That was all. Look here" But she
sucked in her breath quickly and her
big eyes made a plea.
"I'll get you the cash." said Crane.
and he turned heavily and walked
from the room.
Bertram faced Kitty, who, stared at
him with eyes haggard from what she
had been through and from dread.
Her eyes said that she wanted no
more this night and they told that she
knew there must be more.

She raised . finger warningly.
"Wait here she begged. Don't try

She crossed the room, closins the door.

sharp surgical knives, then he shook
his head and returned 1t to the case.

1t it costs $40 for gasoline tc
drive car over certain length OF
concrete road, it will cost $11.13 tc
drive the same car over a good ma.
cadam road of the same length, and
$15.O7 If the macadam is in very
poor condition.
The rate of wear on tire treads on
concrete road is SO cents as against
$16.72 on the same length Of good
macadam and $56.15 on very poor
macadam road.
These are very interesting and sig.
pificant figures. 1t is true the state
of Washington uses crushed rock fol
it's macadamized roads, whereas in
Minnesota we use gravel. Perhaps
the tire wear on gravel, with the
rounded surfaces of its pebbles, would
be somewhat less than tire wear on
crushed rock with its sharp edges, es.
pecially when the road is new.
But the cost of tires and gasoline
varies surprisingly, according te
whether the car is driven over paved
or over graveled roads. And the saw.
ing of roads is so great as to make
them real economic necessity, when.
ever the traffic is heavy enough Il
make maintenance Of graveled roads
unduly expensive.
The Minnesota Legislature, re.
spending to a wide spread desire fol
lower motor vehicle taxes, has al
length reached an agreement on re-
duction from rate Of 2.75 per cent
| to "a per cent. This will reduce the
total yield of the tax about million
dollars. It will save to. each car own
lr two or three dollars year.
But if the tax rate was retained a
| It's present level, the extra million
dollars would greatly help to speed
the essential work of hard surfacins
Minnesota's main travelled roads. Ant
one 100-mile trip on graveled road
will take considerably more money il

of the general wear and tear, out o.

is now able to save in his annual tax
Minnesota, with some $50 miles O.
paved highway, as against more thar
1000 miles of paved highway il
Wisconsin, is to lag behind more thar
ever. And the car owners of Mime
sofa will continue to pay heavy ex
tras in tire wear and gasoline con
sumption, because they insist on keep
ing poor and expensive gravelec
roads where paved roads would save
them far more than the slight reduc
ton in their. taxes.
Save two dollars apiece in the an

The trustees instructed the execu.
tive board to Immediately make ar.
rangements so that a part Of the
current market price of potatoes will
be paid to members as they deliver
this fall. This was impossible during
the 1924-25 season because the or
ganization was without capital stock
and could not arrange the needed
banking credits because of it's new
ness in the field.
Formation of contact units at each
shipping point, for the purpose of
cutting down the cost of getting po-
tatoes from the farms into cars for
shipment was also authorized. The
trustees found that the biggest item
in the Exchanges operations this year
was items for running local ware
houses.
The most dominant note in the
meeting was the repeated expression
of confidence in the plan of the or.
ganization and the determination to
make the coming seasons operations
more efficient.
