Production administration relations
with farmers under the new farm ad-
hstment act will be undertaken by
Chester Davis, former Montana COM
missioner of agriculture, 1t was an
nounced yesterday.
: Davis was selected to take over the
work by Secretary of Agriculture Wal
lace and George N Peek. chief admins
TRAITOR under the act. Davis choice Is
regarded as an indication that reduc-
tion of acreage and production Of basic
farm commodities will be attempted
under the powers given the Secretary of
Agriculture by the act.
Organization by States.
1t will be part of Davis task to per-
feet organizations of farmers by States
and counties to carry out programs of
reducing areas devoted to the basic
crops, in line with the domestic allot-
ment or other plan adopted to reduce
farm ouput in an effort to better prices.
Davis, like Wallace and Peek, was
claSsed as a Republican until 1928.
when, with Peek, he directed a special
campaign in behalf of Alfred E. Smith,
the Democratic presidential candidate,
in the Middle West. He also was active
iii the Roosevelt campaign last Fall.
Davis became associated with Peek
when both sought passage of the Nc
Nary -Haugen farm bill.
In recent years Davis has shared with
Peek interest in a factory at Dubuque,
Iowa, manufacturing corn stalks into
building materials. He has been active
recently in a movement to obtain con-
gressional approval of plan to re-
quire blending of gasoline with alcohol
made from corn and other farm prod
ucts to stimulate their consumption.
In administering the farm act, Davis
will be a member of council which
will direct the program. Other men,
bers will include Wallace, Peek, r. G
Tugwell, Assistant Secretary, and
Charles j. Brand. former secretary of
the National Fertilizer Association, who
is co-administrator.
Agreement Preliminaries
Peek reported yesterday he was max
ing progress in preliminaries for draft
ing trade agreements with industries
aimed to eliminate competitive factors
which he blames for contributing to
present farm price levels.
MY first duty is to get some OF these
marketing agreements with professors
started" he said. IF we can prevent
cut-throat competition, we can help
both farmer and consumer
Wallace described the effort to OBJ
tain trade agreements as the "immedi-
ately important job of bringing order
and economy into the field of food dis
tribution"
Wallace is convinced, however, that
reducing production on farms must be
the keystone of the program finally
worked out for the commodities at
meetings scheduled to get under way as
soon as the personnel of the admins
tration has been completed.

ROME, May 20-The presence here

ments Of Premier Mussolini on world

| himself with President Roosevelt in the
opinion that the time has come for an
end of pickering if world chaos is to
be avoided. The debts question, the
premier's four-power peace club and

was thought, also may figure in II
Duce's discussions.

gram for the World Economic Confer
ence at the meeting. Results of the
washington conversations between Jung
and President Roosevelt will be gone into

AIR FLEET SPREADS
Terror IN PE|P|NG
Eleven Planes, Carrying Full
Loads of Missiles, Fly
Low Over City.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PEIPING, May 20.-This city of al
most 100000 population was prepared
for almost any eventuality today fol-
lowing the visit of IL Japanese bombing
planes. carrying full loads of missiles,
which dropped no bombs, but caused
thousands to scurry to cover.
The planes few in 5-3-3 formation
at an altitude sufficiently low to make
their full loads of projectiles clearly
visible.
While thousands of Chinese ran for
cover under ground. others stood trans
fixed in their tracks. The roar of the
motors drowned out land noises. Three
other times in the last week, Japanese
planes have passed over the city, but
only one at time.
Due to the noise of the motors 1t was
not possible to hear if the anti-aircraft
guns on the city's walls went into action.
1t was believed they did, however, for
the planes soon assembled to 5000 feet
Skeptical of Armistice.
Any prospects for cessation Of hoStili-
ties in the North China war zone are
still remote, in the opinion of the jap
anese legation here.
A spokesman said he did not share
the belief of some that a rapproche-
ment was imminent as the result of the
arrival here of Gen. Hwang Flu, repre-
sentative of the Marking national gov
eminent.
A Chinese youth at noon today drove
in an automobile to the entrance of the
Japanese barracks abutting the lega-
tion quarter, drew a sword and struck
a Japanese sentry on the head. The
sentry was injured probably fatally.
Soldiers Capture Youth.
Japanese soldiers captured the youth
when companion in the automobile
became frightened and drove away,
leaving the assailant behind. He was
carried into the Japanese barracks. His
fate was not revealed.
The Japanese were reported most in
dignant over the incident. AS a result
they erected sand bag barricades and
posted a steel-helmeted double guard
around the entire Japanese legation
and barracks compound.
An unidentified foreign newspaper
correspondent who witnessed the Incl
dent and took photograph was seized
by japanese soldiers, but later released.

military leaders, hoping to precipitate a
recurrence of the November 81 riots
A number of reactionaries at that
time sought to oust authorities here
The Chinese further claimed Japa-
neSe soldiers had led Chinese gunner
who sought to start fight in the native
city last night. The gunner, described
by Chinese officials as hirelings of the
Manchukuan government, fred indis-
criminately. Chinese military police
responded quickly, however, and dis
persed the group, arresting about a
dozen.
