The case of Bobby Jones is no differ
ent. As soon as the king of golf opened
his weekly talks last week, queries
started their usual course in an effort

1t was stated with whisper that the
sum was somewhat more than a thou
sand dollars a week In fact the total
might be as high as 81 $780, according
TO these same sotto-voce replies.
That matter settled. the biggest thing
that Is worrying Bobby in connection
with future broadcasts is whether he is
going to make what he has to say fit
into the IA minutes or so allotted to
him. To be absolutely certain that he
does not overrun or go so fast that
he will leave a hole in the program, he
has purchased a stop-watch which he
intends to keep close at hand each

STEEL HEAD SEES
RETURN TO NORMAL
James A. Farrell Hits Those
Who Would Reduce Wage
of Workers.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
CHICAGO, January 20.-The pendu-
lum of industrial activity, in the belief
of James A. Farrell. president of the
United States Steel Corporation, is
swinging back to normal.
The broad-shouldered, white-haired
head Of the $2,000,e00,00 600 steel concern
expressed his opinion in an address on
Business" before the National Gamers
and National Wholesale Grocers.
Declaring that in his opinion the
''peak of the depression passed 80 days
ago." the speaker said the time has
now come for greater enterprise in
trade-for loosening up business" add
Ing that I'VE are quite capable of doing
much more than was done in $780,"
He opposed wage reductions.
There are some,' he said. "who urge
q reduction in wages corresponding to
the drop In prices. They affect to be-
lieve that such a liquidation of labor
would hasten return to normal con-
ditions.
Would Cut Purchasing Power.
Apparently those who advocate this
solution have not stopped to weigh the
implications that, instead of tending
TO increase consumption of industrial
and agricultural products. such wage
reductions must. inevitably reduce the
purchasing power of the wage Garner
and restrict consumption.
1T is my deliberate Judgment that
a general reduction of wages in this
country would set back the impending
recovery by at least two years"
Touching on the tariff and interna-
tional relations, Mr. Farrell said that
some of the suggestions made along
these lines were as futile as the pro-
pOSal to lower wages
Careless Tariff Talk.
HThere is much careless talk about
high tariff walls" he said 1T has
been ringing around the world. espe-
cially for the last few years. and most
of 1t Is aimed at the United States 1t
comes to our country in large volume
from certain countries in which, as in
ours, agriculture produces a surplus
above their own needs. Why is it that
such countries persist in their demand
that we, who have a surplus or our own
production should add to that surplus
by purchasing heavily of the same prod
uctS from them? Their true problem
Is TO sell their production in markets
where 1t is needed for consumption. not
IN markets where such purchases only
aod to an already serious export prob
lem"
Mr.. Farrell also said that there were
certain groups" believing that "our
country will be retarded until certain
factors In the world situation are cor
rected" but that there sis a larger ele-
ment who believe that if we will con-
centrate our activities on the United
states and its problems, business here
with all its potential possibilities will
speed recovery and enlarge opportunity
for employment"

ASK EMBARGO ON
PRODUCTS OF farm
6urtness Would Ban lmporta-
ton of Wheat, Flour, Feed
Grains and Butter

A bill to place an embargo on
wheat and flour. feed grains, butter
and butter substitutes until March
81, 1882 has been introduced in the
list congress by O. B. Burtness, rep
resentative from the first North Da-
kota congressional district.
In commenting on the proposed
measure. Burtness said he does not
believe in an embargo as permanent
legislation but he was prompted to
introduce the bill because Of the dis
gustingly low and unfair prices that
now prevail in the United States with
regard to the products named In the
measure.
1T will be noted" Burtness SAYS
that I have included nothing OF
which we do not have ample in the
United States for domestic consump-
ton and nothing as to which the pre-
sent price Is not most deporable."
Speaking OF the effect Of foreign
inportations on the American mar
ket, BurtnesS a1mits that importa-
lions have not been exceedingly large
but points to the fact that the threat
OF importations has seriously affect
ed the market. ~
In advocating the early adoption of
the measure he said foreign importa-
lions are working an incalculable
hardshipS on the American farmer and
that, as no solution can be expected
from the provisions Of the tariff act,
ne believes the only means Of ale
waiting a most distressing situation is
10 set up an embargo which would
temporarily ban foreign importations
and give domestic prices q chance to
assume . higher level.
