ties than he did before the war. Should
a particular tax cause an undue drop
in the consumption OF any commodity,
the Secretary may revise it. He must
reduce it progressively if the open mar
ket price Of the commodity advances and
remove it altogether when the pre-war
parity Is reached. On commodities such
as wheat and cotton the addition to the
consumers price should be trifiing. On
bread cent a pound, II passed through
to the producer, would give him go cents
a bushel more for his wheat. In finished
cotton goods the cost of the raw material
represents an item so small that doubling
it would add only few cents to the
price of a shirt.
In the congressional debates on the
measure several Senators and Repre-
sentative expressed the opinion that in
fiationary features would make the farm
adjustment features unnecessary
Imitation cannot cure overproduction.
BY itself, indeed, it could make the mat
ter worse. It's effect on prices would
tend to restimulate production just as
farm relief witout production control
would do. Moreover, imitation, though
it might raise farm prices first would
raise all prices eventually. Higher prices
of all commodities would not restore the
farmers purchasing power. Production
beyond market needs means trouble on
any price level.
| CAME back to my point Of departure.
This farm relief plan is essentially
q cooperative undertaking. It requires,
first, the voluntary cooperation Of the
farmers-there is no compulsion. Second.
1t requires the corporation Of professors,
distributors, wholesalers and retailers.
These groups will profit not directly. but
that the measure should have on busi-
ness generally. Farm incomes are 20
low now that the whole community feels
the paralyzing effect. Last year, for ex-
ample, the farmers cash income avail
able for buying goods was only 81, ,302.-
100000, compared with $4657, ,000, 900 in
1920. Wage earners will benefit through
the employment that restored farm buy
ing power will furnish. Industry and
finance will benefit by the restored SOLE
vency Of their farmer debtors. The Ma
tion generally viii benefit by the re-
habilitation OF its most basic industry.
And SO the farm act Is up to all Of
us. 1t will work only If we are ready to
do justice to great share of our popu-
lafi0n

A Dip in Wheat Late in the Day Dropped the Prices

German Issues were exceptional 10 the trend. Wheat was higher in the early trading but it closed off fractionRlly, taking other grains down with it. Cotton held small gains. Foreign exchange was mixed in a narrow range.
 On the stock exchange, Amcri- can Telephone roso above i03. Traders were revising recent guess es on the outcome Of tho dividend meeting scheduled for next We'd nesday and many anticipated dec. laratlon of the regular quarterly dividend.
 Union Pacific directors ordered the payment of dividend of ti.5O a share, tho same as in tho pre-. ceding three quarters. That had been anticipated correctly but it nevertheless was Instrumental in sending Union Pacific common stock soaring to 77 3.S up 3 1-S. Other carrier shares followed the lead of this issue.

 There were several factors lead ing traders into q more optimistic frame of mind. Decision of Poland to return to the gold standard was seen in somo quarters as q forerunor of similar action by other countries now off the gold standard.
