Farm problems constituted the sub

by the Farmers Marketing and I'M

urday, which was attended by more
than 100 representative farmers of
southern Montana. George n. Peek,
president of the American Council of
Agriculture, and Frank Jeffers, rep
resetnting the Minnesota Grain Grow
ers' association, were the principal
| speakers.
: The meeting was called primarily
to consider means for developing a
cooperative grain marketing system,
but Mr.. Peek convincingly brought
out that control of surplus farm pro-
ducts, so that products sold on the
domestic markets may reflect Amer
lean instead of world market price
levels, is necessary to establish fl
nancial equality for the farmer. Mr..
Peek reviewed the legislative enact
ments and the activities of govern
ment agencies which have led up to
the present condition which gives the
farmers dollar, he declared, ga pur-
chasing power of only 80 cents" He
asserted that farmers can expect lit

til the federal government realizes

well as those of other groups of so.

D|SSENS|ON DELAYS
HOP-OFF BY GRACE
Quarrel Develops Between
Aid to Flyer and Mechani-
clan Over Arrangements.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HONOLULU, July adverse
weather reports and dissension in the
camp of Richard Grace, Hollywood
stunt flyer preparing for an aerial
dash from Hawaii to southern Cali
fornia, dimmed his hopes for take
off today.
Weather reports broadcast last
night indicated that conditions would
be highly unfavorable for a take-off
at Mana, Island of Kauai, at dawn, but
there was no comment from Grace's
headquarters on whether he would de-
lay the start.
What effect quarrel between Lieut..
Eston B. Roger of the Naval Reserve,
mechanician for the fight, and Charles
C. Spang, who is in charge of rigging
Grace's plane, has had on the pro-
iected trip was not known here.
Ineficiency Is Charged.
Spang accused Roger Of inefficient
MANAGEMENT and failure to make the
proper arrangements for handling the
plane here. Spang also blamed naval
officers and social activities on Kauai
Island for delaying Grace's take-off,
and declared the reserve officer had
"bungled the flight plans from the
start
Naval officers who had been assist
ing in the fight preparations left the
camp and returned to Pearl Harbor
when the storm broke loose. Grace re-
manned uncommunicative regarding
the dissension, evidently trying to
keep pace by refusing to take sides.
Charges Not Replied To.
Neither Roger nor the naval officers
have publicly replied to Spang's
charges.
Grace's safety equipment consisted
of a pneumatic float and a pistol to
fire IL white and II red signal flares.
The gasoline supply-322 ga1Ions-is
capable of carrying the plane in the
air for 90 hours. His food supply is
comprised of six cans of raisin bread,
chocolate and water sufficient to
sustain him for four days.
