warning, ]. Russell Smith, professor Of
economic geography in Columbia Uni

OF planting trees, both for the preser-
vation of our soil and streams and for
the production of food. His book is
called Tree Crops Permanent Ag-
riculture." Prof Smith says that the
tree is In some ways better food plant
than the grains, because 1t can suck
up moisture from far below the surface
Of the ground and Is not so dependent
on regular rainfall. Tree crops could
thus be grown on rocky hills and other
places where rainfall is scsnty. Many
trees not at present grown In this coun-

such program is carried out. Prof.
Smith and other agricultural economists
should be prepared to cope with the
many tree blights and pests which have
already been imported into the United
States from foreign countries and would
come In still larger numbers.

EMPLOYMENT LOSS
SHOWN BY REPORT
Federal Reserve Board Says
Decline Is Less Than That
in Production Volume.

The decline In employment has been
less than that in the volume Of produc-
ton, the Federal Reserve Board said to-
day in its monthly bulletin, revealing
that industrial production declined last
month for the nth consecutive month
and was below the level set last year
Although wholesale commodity prices
moved downward In November and con-
tinued down the first half of the pres
ert month, retail department store sales
continued at larger volume than
year ago. Production in basic industries
declined by 8 per cent In November and
was per cent lower than q year ago.
'The decline In production, which be-
gan In Midsummer" the bulletin con-
tinued, was restricted prior to Novem-
Der largely to industries in which the
expansion during the earlier part Of the
year had been exceedingly rapid, par
ticularly iron and steel, automobiles and
related industries. The same industries
showed the largest reductions in No
vennber, but there were declines also in
the copper, cotton and wool textiles and
shoe industries, and, in smaller degree.
In silk textiles and coal. Production of
crude petroleum was also curtailed. Vol
unne Of building contracts awarded dur
ing the month continued to be con-
siderably smaller than In the CORE
spending period Of 1928.
Employment Decline shown.
Employment In factories was also
reduced during November to q level
slightly below year ago and there was
a somewhat larger decrease In factory
since Midsummer, however, has been
relatively smaller than that in the
physical volume Of production"
The board reported that liquidation
Of bank credit, which had begun In No
vember, continued throughout that
month and the first two weeks Of De-
cember, when total loans and invest
lnentS Of reporting member banks were
at about the same level as on october
%, prior to the increase caused by the
withdrawal Of funds by non-banking
lenders.
The board found that the number Of
banks operating branches decreased by
II in the fiscal year ending last June
80, but the number of branches In oper-
alton increased 2l0 to a total Of 3,440.
were In New York, California and
Michigan.
Chain Banking Increases.
In California, where branch banking
Is permitted under State law, the num-
Der OF branches was 861, In Michigan
81 banks out Of total of TAI were
operating ass branches, while in New
York 106 banks out Of a total Of 1,l4l
were operating $50 branches.
Chain or group banking, the board
found, had increased In the majority
Of States, but such banking develop
ments were particularly noticeable In
Minnesota, North Dakota, Iowa, Illinois,
Michigan, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma,
Arkansas, Washington, Utah, New York
and New Jersey. In eight Of the States
branch banking Is prohibited and this,
the board said, may have stimulated
the chain banking growth. It noted
also considerable growth In chain bank
ing in California.

GRANGE HEAD VOICES
TARIFF HILL OBJECTION
Rv the AssncIated press

BY the Associated Press
ST. PAUL, November 11-Opposition
to the new tariff schedules in the HaW-
ley bill was expressed Saturday by Louis
j. Taber, Columbus, Ohio, master of
the National Grange, who said the na-
tional convention In Seattle this week
would consider resolutions condemning
them.
Taber, with pit representatives of
oranges in Eastern and Central States,
passed through here today en- route to
Seattle for the convention, which will
be held November Is to 20.
Compared with the protection which
they afford industry" Taber said, 1.-THE
new schedules are most unfair to agri-
culture. The manufacturer is fully pro-
tected and the farmer is not. We be-
lieve the situation should be remedied
without delay and will consider the
adoption Of resolutions petitioning Con-
gress to this effect"
Taber added that the convention also
would consider resolutions demanding
an amendment to the farm relief act
including the export debenture provi-
sion and indorSing proposed legislation
for substituting rural schools with funds
derived from the Federal income tax.
