DROP IN WHEAT
UPSETS HOOVER
His Scouts Bump Into
Angry Kansas Storm

WASHINGTON, July 11.-With
wheat dropping today to the lowest
Pr re in II years, Hoover has decided
that to take the advice of his ad-
visers that it would be politically
ill-advised" to take the trip west he
had planned to tell the grain farm
ers all about how prosperous"
they are. Wheat dropped to IS and

ling pit.
His scouts, so to speak, Secre-
tary Hyde of Agriculture, and
Legge, head of the Farm Board
swindle, were sent out to tell the
farmers that all their troubles
could be cured by not planting so
much wheat.
But they have been met with
little short of being tarred and
feathered in Kansas, and have re-
ported to the Big Cheese" in Wash
ington, that it isn't safe to go fool
ing around with boloney in the
wheat belt.
More and more farmers are ready
to listen to the only real organiza-
ton of poor farmers, the United
Farmers League, whose adrdess is
Bismark, North Dakota, and its
paper, the UNITED Farmer" which
calls on poor farmers everywhere
to form a committee among their
neighbors and get in touch with the
League and learn how to put up a
fight that will get the bankers

Elected in actual retaliation IN kind

al and condemnation from the press

Automatically with the effective
ness of the 1,122 new rate schedules
contained in the Hawley- Smoot

duties became operative, placing
higher duties on a dozen commodl-
ties imported from the United States.
These duties, which were includ-
ed in that governments May /,

that the Canadian tariff shall be as
high on articles coming from other
countries as the rates those coun-
tries levy against the same COM
modities from Canada
The Belgian cabinet discussed the
new law and then decided that any
retaliatory measures should await
conferences with other European
countries; while the Spanish govern
ment studied requests that it break
the existing modus vivendi with the
