IL TRADE TREATIES
TO help BUSINESS
FOR EMPIRE UNITS
Effect Of Pacts on United States
Exports Still Is to Be
Determined

Ottawa, Aug. 22.-(P-A series OF
IL trade treaties designed to promote
the economic welfare of the British
empire and to demonstrate the unity
of its dominions was revealed In part
to the world Monday as the delegates
to the imperial conference scattered
to the four winds.
The United Kingdom signed seven
agreements. These were with Can
ada, Australia, New Zealand, South
Africa, india. Newfoundland, and
Southern Rhodesia. The Irish Free
State signed two pacts, one with
Canada and another with South
Africa.
Canada also had agreements with
South Africa and Southern Rhodesia
while South Africa struck a bargain
with New Zealand.
Many Of the trade channels be-
tween the U. 8. and various British
6ominions and the United Kingdom
will be affected by the treaties, which

Just how far British preference will
cut into American or world trade
cannot be determined by the variou.

SYMPATHIzES WITH STRIKE

st. Paul, Aug. 22.-(Fy-Governor
Floyd B. Olson is in sympathy with
the farm strike having its inception
in Iowa and would be willing to join
in an arbitrary plan" with COVER
ilors of other states to the extent of
declaring martial law to aid the
cause, he said today.
Olson said he would be willing to
take drastic measures in the case OF
Minnesota alone If it was not for the
fact that competition from other
states would make the effort useless.
Il am in sympathy with the strike, -
he said. unless the farmers of the
middlewest can secure fair prices for
their products and thereby restore
their buying power we might as well
give up."

no hope to the farmer. The state
of Minnesota alone is powerless to

what he meant by arbitrary"
"Supposing the governors of these
states-Wisconsin, Minnesota, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Ne.
braska, Kansas, and Montana
declare marital law, that is what ]
mean," the governor replied.
If these states went under mar
tial law. they should make provision
for assuring milk supply for chill
dren and hospitals, and the strike
could be applied to grains and other
commodities which are selling at
levels far below the cost of produc-
tion."
The governor said that he would
be willing to join in a conference as
proposed by the mayor of Sioux City
but he said the understanding would
have to be clear that he is in SYM

FARMERS SEEK TO

picket lines of the Iowa farmers seek
ing to assure success for their farm
holiday" were to extend Monday
from Sioux City, the agricultural
mart for three states, to include a
highways leading into Omaha from
Council Bluffs, Is miles down the
Missouri river.
Leaders of the Iowa movement, en-
couraged by their success in stopping
milk shipments by truck into Sioux
City, Monday morning announced
that at 2 p. m, Monday a picket line
will be drawn across the two main
highways leading into Omaha from
Iowa.
Omaha is the second largest live
stock concentration point in the coun-
try.
It also was disclosed Monday that
two freight trains were stopped Sun
day night by the farm strikers.
One of the trains was detained at
Neville, Ia, by a group Of approx
mately 200 farmers who stopped II
cars of livestock bound for Sioux City
packing houses. None of the stock was
removed. After a short delay the
train was permitted to resume its
journey.
The other train was stopped at JET
ferson, s. D., where so farmers put
torpedoes on the tracks and waved
red lanterns. The cars contained milk
consigned to Sioux City. Baggagemen
closed the doors of the cars and no
attempt was made by the farmers to
open them. The train was delayed
for only five minutes.
Successful during the last week in
preventing truck shipments Of pro-
duce and milk into Sioux City, the
campaign for higher farm prices
gained new impetus Sunday at a
meeting of approximately 1000 farm
ers and their families at Dunlap,
Iowa. where they agreed to broaden
their activities to include Omaha and
