FARM BUREAU HEAD
SEES FARMER AID
IN RESERVE BANK

Speaking at the Carlton county
fair at Barnum, Friday, Sept 16,
President ]. F. Reed of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation declared
that crisis has developed in the
Federal Reserve System, as a result
of the action of the Federal Reserve
board in forcing the Chicago bank to
reduce its rediscount rate from four
per cent to three and one-half per
cent.
''The issue is squarely joined" de-
clared Mr.. Reed. HAS the Reserve
board the authority to fix rates for
the twelve Reserve banks? This,
however, has been done in the past,
but not heretofore ever such violent
protest of the bank Immediately con-
cerned
Senator Carter Glass, often re-
ferred to as the father of the Federal
Reserve System. expressed the opin-
ion that the board is vested with no
such authority.
1.-The Federal Reserve Act speci-
fically provides that discount rates
shall be fixed with view of accom-
modating commerce and business.
These rates were fixed in 1921 at such
figure that deflation was swift and
drastic, and threw agriculture into
such condition that it's results still
are felt by that industry.
1T appears mandatory that rates
be fixed to accommodate commerce
The lowering of the rate at this time
will be helpful in the movement of
crops. 1t is an innovation in finance
to reduce rates when agriculture is |
in need of finance. 1t has been the
custom for rates to harden at times |
of crop movements.
rs the movement of farm crops
commerce? If so, rates should be put
to the lowest possible figure. 1t
ought to be fundamental national
policy that in crop moving time the
Reserve System should be used to
ease the situation. If this were done
it would give to agriculture what has
already been given to other groups
in financing their industry, and no.
thing more.
Agriculture should have this help,
as it is given to other industries.
Was it the intention of Congress in
forming the Reserve System to vest
the power in the board to arbitrarily
fix the rate? We doubt whether the
board would have taken such action
except for the situation now prevail
ing in agriculture, and which has
been brought to its attention so fore
IDLY during the past summer"

SENSATIONAL CASE
 S7|RS ALL FRANCE
No Clue as to Who Aided Daudet
 and Friends

Paris. June 27 ReLeon Daudet the royalist leader, and NJ. Delest, another royalist, and the communist Semard, for whose benefit the gates of Sante prison were opened on Sat urday, were still at liberty today and the government was working ener- getically to obtain clue as to how the wardens were tricked into re- leasing the three prisoners. A num- Der of witnesses have been question: ed but no light has been shed on the mysterious hoax. which has caused much laughter at the expense of the government.
 Some of the newspapers declare the affair is doomed to remain mystery unless NJ. Daudet's royalist followers decide to tell the story. The police version is that someone q royalst. they charge. representing himself as NJ. Sarraut, minister of interior, gave orders to Director Cat ry of the prison that the three pris- oners were to be released. There upon the men were allowed to walk out. A as a consequence, NJ. Catry has been dismissed. But the news papers insist that he is being made

the scapegoai: that the plane lies higher up.
 NJ. Semard is making TO efforts to conceal his whereabouts. He ap- peared at a meeting Of the commu- mist party at St. Denis yesterday. The government says 1t will al- low him 10 days to surrender before taking steps to rearrest him. The royalist party insists it will not let such procedure apply in the cases of Daudet and Delest, it being contende1 that they left the jail at the invitation Of the warden and cannot be compelled to return.
 One version of the hoax is that it came about through the fear of Mme Daudet over what would hap pen to her husband since a nearby restaurant where he received his food had changed hands. Fearing det to suffer. she appealed to the headquarters of L'Action Franchise to devise a means for securing his release. whereupon the plot was matched. He had been in the prison since June 13 when he surrendered himself after defying the authorities. He was sentenced some time pre- viously to five months for labelling a taxicab driver. in connection with the death Of his young son. Phillipe. whose body was found Tn q taxicab. The newspapers continue to eX- tract good deal of fun out of the incident, although they charge the government with laxity and level sharp criticism at it.
