Buyers Are Cautious
In Purchasing SOws

Only few piggy" sows are going
to market under the government
swine slaughtering plan because live
stock buyers are declining to purchase
them for shipment, Abe Tolchinsky,
local commission man, disclosed Mon
day.
The reason, he said, is that the sows
are liable to have filters while in tran
sit and could not be sold at the pre-
MUM prices listed by the government
when they arrive at the market.
Tolchinsky, caught with 600 pigs on
his hands when an embargo was Or
dered at South st. Paul because OF
heavy receipts. Monday was seeking
a permit to ship them.
Meanwhile pigs were continuing to
pile up at all interior points in North
Dakota as farmers offered their
swine for sale.
All railroads in this territory re-
ported record movements of pigs to
market, indicating that this area is
doing its full share to cooperate with
the government in its efforts to re-
move the potential pork surplus from
the market.
Only pigs weighing 800 pounds or
more are being butchered for meat
Tolchinsky said he was advised. Pigs
weighing less than that are being re.

ceived here from Frank McGurk Of

10 Businessmen Checking Up on
Code Signers and Results

PLAN THOROUGH CANVASS
House-To.House Drive Later in
Week to Enlist Consumer
Aid For Blue Eagle

Ten local businessmen took the field
Monday in the campaign which is ex-
pected to put every family and bust
ness establishment in Bismarck under
the wings of NRA's blue eagle.
The initial stage of the drive con-
sists of a checkup of what business
houses have signed the recovery
agreement and what they have done
TO justify the blue eagle emblems in
their windows.
This information will be listed on
Ia QUESTIONABLE, designed by the Bis
marck NRA committee and the in
formation so obtained will be tabulat-
eG in order that Bismarck may know
what the agreement has accomplished
here toward increasing employment
and raising wages.
Questions listed are: Have you
signed the presidents N. r. A. agree
ment: are you observing its terms as
to minimum wages, maximum hours
Of employment, prices, ETC.: how many
people did you employ prior to the
Inauguration of the N. r. A. move
ment; how many do you now employ;
how many hours per week did you
keep your place of business open prior
to August /; how many now"
The canvassers will report Wednes-
day morning at the Association Of
Commerce and the work Of compil-
ing the data obtained will be started
at that time.
Will Ask All to Help
The next step, to be taken later In
the week, will consist Of a city-wide
campaign designed to place each
householder under the eagle emblem.
In 10 house-to-house canvass each
consumer will be asked to sign a
pledge to buy only from merchants
and manufacturers who have COM
piled with the terms of the presi-
dents code.
The exact manner In which the
house-to-house solicitation will be
staged has not been determined but
H. p. Goddard, secretary of the Aso-
ISOLATION OF Commerce and member
of the general NRA committee for the
northwest, said it would be done this
week and that plans will be an
nounced later.
The local organization also will set
up a committee to hear and investi-
gate complaints growing out of the
MIRA effort. It is considered likely
that some may actually attempt to
"chisel" the code and that others may
be unjustly accused of so doing. The
committee on complaints will be
charged with the task of separating
the sheep from the goats.
In general charge Of the city drive
is a committee of seven with Mayor
A. p. Lenhart as chairman. Other
members are H. w. Griffith, G.. A.
Dahlen, E. B. Klein, j. l.. Barth, r.

washington, Aug. 28.-(P)-Disposi-

popped up as major problem again
Monday despite action by nature, the
agricultural adjustment administra-
ton. and more than score of govern
ments IN signing at London a pact to
cut down production and reopen for

Whlle one group in the agriculture
department sought to speed up the
campaign to reduce American wheat
acreage, from another came word that
Two OF the nations largest producing

plus this year-the Pacific northwest
and the southwest.
The export movement of wheat has
slowed down to a mere trickle COM
pared with years past and doubts
have arisen whether the wheat acre
age reduction plan will offset unoffi-
clal reports that farmers not Joining
In it contemplate increasing their
production.
Reports are coming to farm admin
Strators that many farmers, tempted
by better prices for wheat and the
drafting of both national and inter-
national policies to improve the posi-
ton OF wheat growers, hope to cash
m by expanding their production.
Withhold Subsidy Plan
Pending a study of the London
agreement, administrators are with
holding a decision on their plans for
substituting exports of the grain. They
have looked to China as an outlet but
still another group reported that
there is no immediate interest in
buying foreign wheat" there.
The bureau Of agricultural econo-
mics estimated the "exportabe sur
plus" at 161 100000 bushels, most OF it
in the Pacific northwest and south
west, after allowing 125, 100000 bushels
as a minimum carryover after domes-
tic needs have been met from the DO
tential supply. It would have been
much higher except that this years
crop, the lowest since 1893, is estimat-
ed at less than 50O,000,000 bushels. The
July l carryover was 38600O000.

ship between the president and Moley
who has been the key man of his
group Of advisers during the last two
years.
Moley was just as sincere in his
letter OF resignation which makes his
retirement from office effective on
September Z.
When Roosevelt took office Moley
was made assistant secretary of state.
The London economic conference
came along. Secretary Hull headed
the American delegation. Moley went
over as special messenger for the
president. Something happened over
there that brought the differences of
opinion between Hull and Moley to
a climax.
The president, of course, stood by
his secretary of state. Upon his re-
turn Moley was transferred to a spe-
cial assignment to study kidnapping
and racketeering. He has been on that
study for three weeks and separated
from the state department.
