Barnes Urges Farm, Board
To Hold Grain Off Market
Chamber Of Commerce Leader
Says He Believes Action
Would Raise Price

Minneapolis, July 22.-iR-Julius
H. Barnes of New York city, chair
man of the board of the United
States Chamber Of Commerce, today
expressed the opinion the federal farm
board should withhold from the mar
ket 250,O00,O0 bushels of wheat 1t is
carrying over from the 1880 crop, un-
til price Levels for this year's wheat
crop have increased.
Barnes stopped on his return to the
east after visit to st. Cloud, his boy
hood home. Prefacing his statements
with the declaration he did not want
to be placed in the position Of urging
the federal farm board to amend Its
plan of gradual marketing Of Its
wheat stock, he said he hoped, how
ever, the board would withhold mar
keting of the wheat surplus until q
higher level of prices had been estab-
lished for this years wheat.
If It were possible to handle the
old surplus so q higher level OF prices
would be established for the new
crop, I believe the old wheat eventu-
ally would be absorbed at similarly
higher prices" Barnes said. "The
problem of handling the carry-over
wheat stocks is of paramount impor-
tance, in the light Of prospects for
reduced harvests of wheat this year
In the north west in Canada and
probably in Russia"
