NJ 'kELVIE WHEAT
PLAN HIT BY
BROOKHART
London Delegates Proposal
to Cut Acreage Denounced
As a Move of DisIoyaIty

Disloyalty to the American
wheat farmer on the part of Sam
uel r. McKelvie in trying to i'm
pose a wheat acreage reduction
agreement upon the London
wheat conference was charged to-
day by Senator Smith w. Brook
hart (R) Iowa.
Senator BroOkhart said that
McKelvie's views had not repre-,
sented American farmers, directly
or indirectly.
Acreage Cut Impractical
McKelvie, according to London
reports, has been insisting that
the only solution Of the world
wheat situation lies in acreage
reduction
Senator BrOOkhart declared that
American wheat farmers, under
present conditions, simply cannot
reduce acreage planted in that
crop. Adoption of the export
quota proposal might aid in the
DISPOSAL of the surplus wheat
crop, he said.
Farmers UnrespOnsive
Senator Brookhart pointed out
that the Federal Farm Board has
persistently endeavored to get
wheat farmers to cut their acre
age. but has failed to secure any
lessening of the number of acres
sowed in wheat.

PLAN
FED BY PANIC

NEW YORK, May 22.-The
five-year plan, under the leader
ship of Stain, is like a rocket
proceeding to the moon with the
aid of charts prepared by a
group of astronomers, says Isaac
Don Levine, in "Stalin," a biog-
raphy of the Soviet leader. The
plan he characterizes as con
ceived in distress, propelled by
panic, fed on false promises,
driven by emotional and not
rational means"
Rising economic distress, con-
Stant harping on the menace Of
a capitalist attack and the pres
ent economic crisis in America,
Mr.. Levine says. are the mott
waiting forces of the five-year
plan in its present stage.
"The cry for bread and the
famine of elementary goods die
tated, in the beginning, the
Stain drive in the form of the
five-year plan. 1t would ap-
pear that the concentration
upon the heavy industry is
dictated not by economic but
by political considerations, and
is carried on not in the interest
of Socialism, but in the interest
of the safety of the state.
Instead of furnishing the
population shoes and clothing,
hardware, glassware, soap, fur
niture and all other vital neces-
stiles, the Soviet is building

Heralding breakup of the
