Wage Cuts Scored by
Business Executive

Minneapolis, June 3.-F-General
reduction IN wages will cause greater
and not less unemployment and will
not answer the problem confronting
industry in the United States, James
F. Bell, president Of General Mills,
Inc, and nationally known as a bust
ness executive, said Tuesday.
Mr.. Bell sold too much present-day
discussion centers around wage re-
auctions and unemployment and that
both are Of such serious import that
they must be approached with the
greatest care and consideration.
Speaking in general, all things be-
ing equal" he said, "a reduction in
wages will not answer the problem
with which We are confronted and
will make for greater and not less
unemployment.
If We reduce wages, we reduce the
earning power or income Of the COM
munity and in turn lessen the pro-
ceeds coming back to industry. We
find ourselves in a vicious circle"

When your hand contains dis

you should jump partners silt bid

very few hands where partner will

This bid is made to show PARTNER

to show another suit and keep you

The only time that you jumi' part

NEBRASKA WINTER
WHEAT IS DAMAGED
Crop Statistician Says Un-
precedented Weather Caused
Serious Losses

Lincoln, Neb., June 3.-(P)-A. E.
Anderson, state and federal crop sta
tistician back from a l.10O-mi]e trip
through western Nebraska, reported
Tuesday that winter wheat was dam
aged seriously by unprecedented
weather.
Alfalfa also was badly damaged, he
said, but spring grains were I'M
harmed and corn prospects are good.
Moisture conditions last fall and
winter, he explained, were ideal. Win
ter wheat growth was two or three
times the usual stand and shallow
rooted. Then for the last two months
precipitation was light. Tempera-
lures sank to IA degrees above zero
and high winds blew.
A worse combination of circum-
stances for wheat was impossible, An
derson said, and had never been eX-
perienced in western Nebraska.

PROCLA|MS
JUNE IS TO 70 AS
DAIRY WEEK HERE
Asks North Dakotans to En-
courage Increase in Dairy
Product Consumption

A proclamation designating June
Is to June 20 as DAIRY Week" was
issued from the office of Governor
George F. Snafer Wednesday.
Every means should be employed
to encourage an increase in the con.
sumption Of dairy products IN all
parts of the country and by all classes
of people, the proclamation said.
The governor recommended that
an educational campaign be carried
On throughout the state to stimulate
more interest in dairy farming and
to promote a more general use OF
dairy products.
The proclamation:
"Dairying has become n OF the
most important branches of agricul-
ture in North Dakota. During the
last several years when grain farming
has been Improbable. dairying has
been the mainstay, not only of agri-
culture, but of all lines of business
dependent on agriculture for success.
The proceeds Of ream checks has not
only paid the grocery bills for many
thousands Of people in North Dakota
in recent years, but it has also gone a
long way toward paying taxes, inter-
est on bank debts and farm loans
and other obligations amounting to
many millions of dollars annually.
1.-THE present industrial slump
throughout the nation has diminished
the demand FOR agricultural products
and has caused an increase in the
use Of butter substitutes, resulting in
low prices fer dairy products of all
kinds. Millions of pounds of butter
substitutes are now being consumed
in the United States each year, not
only in the large center. but in the
agricultural sections of the country as
we'll.
I'm view Of the vast Importance OF
a successful clarifying industry in the
agricultural development of the
northwest, 1t Is essential that every
means be employed to encourage an
increase in the consumption of dairy
products In all parts of the country
and by all classes of people.
Now, therefore, be it resolved, that
the week of June IS to June 20. in
elusive, be AID is hereby designated as
dairy week for the state of North
Dakota; and it is recommended that a
far-reaching and thorough-going edu-
cational campaign be carried on
throughout tile state for the purpose
of stimulating more interest in the
success and welfare of dairy farming
in this state, promoting a more gen.
eral use Of dairy products and the
elimination Of butter substitutes from
the American markets, and studying
ways and means of improving the
condition of the dairy industry of the
northwest"
