cago, an organized attack was started
on the federal agricultural marketing
act.
The resolution "calls upon and i'm
plores the leaders of representative
units of this industry to lay aside all
other considerations and join a move
ment to perfect an organization with
prestige and power enough to carry on
determined fight" against the farm
act and any other radical legisla-
ton in general and that affecting our
own industry in particular.
The officers of the association
whose industry is estimated by them
to approximate a volume of a billion
dollars annually, are instructed by the
resolution to accept it as a mandate
to proceed with all possible force and
dispatch"

FOLLOWING the lead of their fell
L low Latin-Americans in other coun-
tries, Brazilians took up the revolu-
tionary movement, seeking to over
throw the government of President
Washington Luis and to prevent the
Inauguration of President-Elect Julio
Prestes. They asserted Prestes was
elected by fraud and that new cleo
tions must be held. Such rapid prog
ress was made by the revolutionists
that their complete success may be a
matter of history before this is read.
On the other hand, the federal gov
eminent declared the revolt would be
suppressed. The rebellion started al
most simultaneously in several of the
most important states, notably Rio
Grande do Sui, Parana, Mlnas Geraes
and Pernambuco. By the middle of
the week the important city of Per-
nambuco had been captured by the
revolutionlsts after two days of fight
ing, and large armies were converg-
ing on Sac Paulo, center of the vast
coffee-growing region. Numerous
smaller cities and towns were occu-
pied without bloodshed.
OF course the rebels were not hav-
ing their own way everywhere, for the
federal armies and the navy were ac-
tive, and two classes Of reservlsts
were called out. Measures were TAX
en- to protect Rio de Janeiro from at
tack. 1t was feared the food prob
lem in the capital city might become
serious.

too MUCH FOOD
PRODUCED,
He SAYS
Foundation Of Agriculture
Must Be Reshaped, Declares
Secretary in Urging Changes

The farmer is producing top
much food, warned Arthur M.
Hyde, Secretary Of Agriculture.
in his annual report to lPresi-
dent Hoover, released today, sug-
gesting more rapid land develop
ment and production adjustment
as two outstanding remedies for
present agricultural depression.
Secretary Hyde also emphasized
the necessity Of organizing agri-
culture into cooperative groups
for collective action and Of chang
ing the present tax system to
tighten the farmers burden,
Urges Crop Curb
The answer to overproductino
is less production, the Secretary
declared in urging acreage adjust
ments. He added:
"By this time 1t Is evident
that supply and demand con-
ditiOns cannot be set aside by
legislation, that the dumping
Of surpluses abroad Is not
feasible, that an indefinite
storing Of surpluses tends to
prevent, rather than cause, .
rise Of prices, that tariff duties
are not effective on cOmmOdi.
ties produced largely for export,
and that subsidies increase
rather than restrain: prOduc-
tiOn."
Problems of readjustment vary
with regions and individual farms,
said the Secretary, In urging vol
untary curtailment Of production.
The acreage adjustments can help
to decrease the unit cost as well
as the volume Of production by
elimination of higher cost acres
and concentration on the more
productive land, he said.
Present conditions necessitate
reshaping the foundations of sgri-
culture. the Secretary admitted.
He said:
Nothing less will accOmmo.
dateth agricultural industry
to the pressure Of powerful eco
nOmic forces now effecting SUP.
ply and demand conditions"
Four Steps
Such a policy, he said, calls
for a scientific classification OF
land resources; construction of
farm acreage in some areas and
curtailing expansion in others;
steps to. divert tax.delinquent
lands to other than farm uses,
and reconciliation of the national
reclamation policy with the need
for restricting farm production.
Other steps urged by Secretary
Hyde include acceleration of pub
lie reforestation; determination
Of a public-doman policy to serve
equally the interests of local farm
ing and grazing industry, and
provision for information to
guide private enterprises in land
settlement.
Widespread drought in the
United States combined with
worldwide business depression
made 1880 an unusually bad year
for agriculture, pointed out the
Secretary.
