BYRD IS CRITICAL.
OF DROUGHT RELIEF
U. S. Measures Inadequate
for Virginia, He Tells
Federal Official.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, October 17.-The
opinion that aid so far announced by
the Federal Government is not in any
way adequate to meet the conditions
produced by the drought in Virginia
was expressed today by Harry r. Byrd,
chairman of Virginia's Drought Relief
Committee in a lengthy communication
to @. w. Warburton, secretary of the
Federal Committee.
The letter is in reply to telegram
from the Federal secretary setting forth
the drought relief measures offered by
the Federal Government. byro tooay
criticised these measures as so pouno
up with restrictions as to make them
far from adequate, especially to ana
those most in need of assistance.
Mr.. Byrd said: IF am correct In
nv Interpretation Of what has been
done, the Federal Government. as Such,
has done one thing only to AID IN tne
emergency, and that is to permit the
anticipation of the 1881 road 1uno as
soon as the projects can De approved
value Is Doubted.
"Eyen this will be of very doubtful
value. because, as previously stated, this
fund must be expended on costly roads
under drastic restrictions, and Will only
contribute to q small degree to the re-
lief of unemployment. On the authority
of the Governor of Virginia, however, l
can state that Virginia Will avan her-
self to the limit of this fund, although
I anticipate disappointment as to its
beneficial results"
Chairman Byrd requests the secretary
of the Federal Committee to make
known before the meeting of the State
Eomnaittee October ~ whether any adj
ditional measures are contemplated by
the Federal Government. He suggested
at the same time three measures, as
follows:
10 That Congress authorize gem
erous road appropriation to be matched
by the States, to be expended on cheaper
types of construction, so that employ
n1ent might be given throughout the
State instead of on few costly prof.
ects.
C2) The extension of reasonable
credit to worthy farmers. secured by
crop liens to be paid back. next year,
without unnecessary restrictions.
Purchase Of Seeds.
(3) Purchase by the Federal Gov
eminent of large quantities Of fertilizer,
rangenent might be obtained and fur
nished to the farmers at great reduc-
ton in cost.
Criticising in order the Federal
drought relief measures which Mr..
warburton had called to his attention,
the Virginia chairman said the reduc-
ton in freight rates by the railroads
had been beneficial, but that the bene-
fits did not reach the farmer unable
to pay cash for the feed.
The 100000 allotted to Virginia for
Federal seed loans for planting Fall
pasture crops, Byrd said, was so bound
up with restrictions that only $4,000
had been used Pointing out that the
time limit for these loans had expired
and that the continued drought made
Fail planting Of pastures useless except
in limited areas, Byrd criticised the re-
etrictions.

NEW YORK, May eff one can
judge from the support encountered
in the stock market yesterday in the

justment would seem to be about

the market will Immediately turn

trend appears illogical. Security
prices have been brought in line
more closely with actual business
than in several months. Current
business should be the markets pri-
mary factor henceforth. The con-
slant dwelling on commodities in
relation to business may seem some
what tiresome, but it's Importance is
apparent. Again the situation comes
to the foreground as is witnessed by
the second cut in copper metal prices,
wheat prices resting on the dollar
mark and new crop cotton prices at
new low figures. Declining whole
sale prices make it exceedingly diff
ficult to build up confidence upon
which business activity must rest.
The stock market, in our opinion,
hereafter will reflect business as it
in turn reflects earnings, and the
next major upturn likely ill be pre-
coded by definite indications that
commodity values have turned up
