J.. S. DELEGATES TO
WHEAT CONFERENCE
TO LEAVE SATURDAY
Samuel r. McKelvie and Nils A.
Olsen Depart for London
With Open Minds

Washington, May 8.-P-The
United States representatives to the
international wheat conference
Samuel r. McKelvie and Nils A. Olsen
sail from New York Saturday for
London.
Their trunks will be loaded with
facts and figures-but 40 proposals to
control the 1881 world wheat surplus.
"Our minds will be open," was Oh
sens parting word as he prepared to
leave Washington. Our attitude
will be a sympathetic one"
Their facts and figures included
production, acreage and price trends
Of every country over a long period OF
years. These will be offered for study
and from them the United States del
cgates hope will come new light on
dealing with the perplexing wheat
problem. ......
The conference undoubtedly will
oe asked to consider plans to control
! SURPRISES through export quotas and
international committees. How far
! McKelvie, grain members of the farm
board and Olsen, chief OF the agrt-
| culture departments bureau of econ
| omics, will proceed in these discus
sion remains unknown. They have,
however, no authority to commit this
government.
If nothing else is accomplished, Oh
| sen believes that the conference will
| reflect back to growers the necessity
for restriction of production to exist
ing needs.
McKelvie, who returned Thursday
from a western trip, has not had time
to formulate any definite opinions
| about the London meeting.
In a statement announcing Nc
Kelvie's appointment, the farm board
said that regardless Of tangible re-
suits" American farmers must cur
tail their acreage to a home con-
sumption basis II they are to expect a
satisfactory price.
This probably will be McKelvie's
last mission as q member of the board.
He will retire June Is to return to
his native state of Nebraska, where
he once served as governor.

Their counsel contended the commits
sion misinterpreted its powers and
that it also disregarded the supreme
courts Interpretation of the Hoch-
Smith congressional resolution of
1925, by lowering to the Lowest pos
sible lawful" point, rates which the
carriers contended already were rea-
sonable.
Replying, the commission con-
tended, among other things, that the
new rates were reasonable and law
full, that it was the sole judge of their
reasOnableneSS, and that the pro-
posed new charges were q "levelling-
up process" by which some were adj
vanced. 1t also held that corrections
in transit practices would have the
effect of saving the carriers around
$4,000 each year.
Former Judge H. A. Bronson, Grand
Forks. N. D., representing the state
of North Dakota, acting as the Mill
and Elevator association and the
North Dakota Terminal Exchange
counsel. asked the court to dismiss
the railroads application for an in
junction because it would, he said
nullify the five year fight of the
north central district against charges
for storage in transit.
That territory raises so per cent
of all spring wheat" he said, land
we've been paying one to IL cents
a hundredweight for storage in trans
it while other states to the south
have had free storage from the rail-
roads. The transit determinations
against us by the Union Pacific and
Great Northern railroads were e
moved by the commission In its or
der and are to go into effect June l
but this injunction would keep them
in force"

Says Europe Will Shut Out

TRANSFER SAID NECESSARY

Washington, May 8.-(Ft-Despite
an admonition by it's retiring presi-
dent, Georges Theunis. of Belgium,
that delegates avoid political argu-
ments, the International Chamber OF
Commerce Friday heard another at
tack on American tariff and war debt
policies.
DR.. w. H. Coates, British delegate,
said Europe would shut out products
of United States efficiency If you will
not take the products of our efficiency,
whatever be their form, OF whatever
their nationality"
International debts, he added, could
be paid only by the transfer OF phys
ical goods or services. Since high tar
IFS exclude goods, they prevent pay
ment of international debts of all
kinds" he held.
1T is no answer to say there is no
tariff OH raw materials, if the debtor
has few OF no raw materials to sell.
he said. The war international
debts are owed by industrial nations.
To shut out their offered payments In
manufactured goods is unreasonable
and ironic."
Coates attack followed a plea by
III. Theunis at the congress banquet
Thursday night that the internation-
al chamber avoid wrangling over
political subjects and cooperate with
governments in working our economic
problems.
Noting previous .denunciations of
Americas wal debt and tariff policies
by DR.. Carl Bergman, former Ger
man secretary of state for finance,
and Henry Bell, an English banker.
Nj. Theunis counseled patience and
added:
1--WE are business men and do not,
at the international chamber, occupy
ourselves with political questions.
That is not our job.
What we are seeking to do is to
re helpful to those who govern the
nations by expressing u minds and
offering the advice that eXper-
fence of business indicates. It is en-
tirely up to the government to deter
mine what general measures shall be
adopted in order to best serve the
interests OF the communities at
large"
Opening the tariff discussion Fri
day, Coates said the reduction of du-
ties would do much to restore the
full circulation of trade traffic"
w. Stuck, Swiss member Of the
League of Nations economic commit
tee: j. Duchenois, French delegate;
IN. A. Plate, Of the Netherlands, and
Floyd Chalmers, Canadian delegate,
also discussed tariffs.

Chairman Crary stated that the idea had not come to him before and added that the matter will be dlscussed by the town committee at is com ing session.
 Of course. as previously stated, although the voting may be by dis tricts, the count of the votes will be by wards.
 At the present time the town chairman only has to issue his call for the primaries five days In ad- vance of the date for ballOting. The convention last night went on re- cord as favoring q 10 days notice. All tickets must be filed with the town committee at least three days before the day of voting.

Nowosett acci- dcntaIly shot himself in the leg and was obliged to seek treatment Tn the Mt Sinai hospital in Hartford. The authorities of that city became suspicious of his story and tipped off the Waterbury police.
 Mikaitis became hooked up with il gang of commercials and was ar rested when he attempted to pass some of the phoney bills in Hart ford theater. A pal of his Charles Tucclllo of Waterbury was also "pinched" at the time and was sent to jail for q short term.
 Bit by bit the police learned the identity of the four involved. The arrest of Ciarlo marked the climax x and now the quartet faces trial In the superior court. The police claim that they have sufficient evi- dence to obtain convictions.
 In court this morning Ciarlo pleaded not guilty. Following the testimony of Lieutenant Stevens his counsel, Attorney Ralph Cop petto waived examination.
 The credit for the roundup of the gang goes to Lieutenant Joseph Stevens and Detectives William Foley and John Leary. In the com- ing trials some exceptionally inter- esting testimony is predicted owing to the plans made by the four ac- cused to terrorlZe the state.
