an additional reason for selling in the
uncertainty about the untitled tonnage

For the steady upward trend there
was no adequate explanation in the
news today, any more than there had
been earlier in the week. An optimistic
statement by Ambassador Mellon cabled
from London may have helped, although
it was couched in general terms. Car
loadings for railroads reporting indi-
vidually made favorable comparisons
with those of the preceding week, but
they should have done that on a sea-

spectators for the decline, now in large

farmers FAVOR
PARTS OF BOARD
Would Keep All That Is Good
Except Sterilization
Provisions.

BY the Associated Press.
Organized farm groups, urging the
domestic allotment relief plan before
the House Agriculture Committee to-
day, said they favored preservation Of
"all that is good in the Farm Board
act, that is, all except the stabilization
provisions"
The question Of disposition Of the
Farm Board was raised by Representa-
tive Andersen, Republican. Of Mime
sofa, while Frederick T. Lee, spokesman
for the agricultural groups, was testi-
flying.
DO you favor abolishment Of the
Farm Board?" Andersen asked.
I'VE want the preservation Of all that
is good In the act, that is, all except
the sterilization provision" Lee replied
But we are not SO interested In the
administrative agency
Leaders Not Concerned.
I'VE want such features as the CO.
operative and educational work contin-
ued. But, whether they are continued
under the board or the Secretary OF
Agriculture, the farm leaders do not
feel concerned. We would leave that
question to the new administration"
Lee told the committee he felt that
while the allotment plan proposed for
wheat, cotton, tobacco and hogs was
"a ruC,,1d off ~ fyvyo
that it would receive the support OF
producers.
Andersen asked how the leaders felt
on the question Of acreage reduction.
"They are not committed to acreage
reduction in and Of ITSELF" Lee replied.
But for 1888, they are ready to support
q. 20 per cent reduction to help prices
and aid In the application OF this plan
Future curtailment would be left to the
discretion OF the Secretary of Agri-
culture.
Attendance Is Great.
Lees testimony came at the BEGIN
ming OF his second day on the stand
Attendance at the hearing was so great
the committee was forced to seek larger
quarters.
Chairman Jones, who has drafted an
allotment bill differing in some essen
tials from that proposed by the farm
groups, opened the hearing by thanking
the agricultural leaders for uniting be-
hind one plan.
Il don't know whether the committee
will be able to go along in full with the
program suggested" Jones said, "but II
Will be q great help to the committee
IN Its work to have this unanimous
agreement Of the farm groups"
Under the proposed allotment plan
the farmer would be paid an amount
above the world price on his percentage
OF production Of the domestic consump-
tion that would be necessary to bring
the purchasing power of the crop to its
pre-war level. The entire system would
be administered by the Agriculture
Department.

Claims Outright.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Legislation tc authorize veterans tc
sell their bonus certificates. provided
the buyer pays of loans advanced on
them by the Government, was proposed
in the House today by Representative

Prohibited by Law.
The present law prohibits banks and
individuals from taking over the service
certificates.
There will be advantages both to the
veterans and the Government" Bach
mann said In addition. business gen.
orally would be benefited"
Among the advantages he listed
were:
Veterans in need will have some i'm
mediate relief by realizing on their
certificates.
Veterans paying on homes can use
certificates as part payment.
veterans will be able to borrow
more than so per cent Of the face value
OF the certificates.
Certificates will be good collateral.
Would Protect Veterans.
Proposed amendment will protect
those veterans who have already bor-
rowed from the Government on their
certificates and cannot pay interest
which is annually decreasing the value
of their certificates.
Advantages for the Government list
ed by Bachmann included:
"All agitation for immediate payment
of the bonus would cease.
Money will not have to be taken
from the Treasury Of the United States
but will be supplied by banks, loanine
companies and individuals.

The Silver Lining

r. VERY cloud has silver lining, according to the
r. old proverb, and there is considerable evidence
- that the cloud of depression which has hung over
us during the past three years is exception.
One of these evidences is that the national health
has been better the death rate lower during
years. The first quarter of 1882 showed the lowest
death rate recorded among the industrial policy
holders of Americas largest life insurance company
Especially noticeable has been the fewer deaths from
Influenza pneumonia and diabetes, diseases which Of
ten result from too much eating and drinking. AS
DR.. Bundesen Chicago commissioner of health says,
'fewers people are digging their graves with their
teeth"
But nobody is starving, although many have been
able to obtain only plain food, and not too much of
that. Health Commissioner Wynne of New York de-
cares that there is much loose talk going on about
possible starvation, malnurition and consequent i'm
pairment of health in that city. For the first four
months of this year the death in the nations
metropolis was only 11.91, against 1919 for the
same period last year. while the infant mortality was
even more markedly less, dropping from 6s to the
thousand In 1881 to Sc to the thousand this year
In the opinion of many, the depression has had a
certain moral and spiritual value, also. There has
been developed greater disposition toward kindness
and helpfuness. Never before has there been such
degree of socitude for the unfortunate There is less
arrogance and snobbishness; less false pride
The depression has taught all of us some salu-
tary lessons, and we shall emerge from it more
thoughtful considerate and more charitable than
before.
