HELENA, Mont.-Outside Of work.

father and son, have become gold
miners with their "diggings" inside
the city limits.
The two, Dean Kranich, clerk in
the Federal District Court, and his
father, George, are sinking a shaft
in their back yard. They intend
to dig until they strike granite,
estimated to be 125 feet below the
surface.
"1t's entirely an elbow grease job

Their theory Is that there should
be q deposit OF gold at bedrock,
carried there by seepage through
limestone. Gold has been found at
other places inside Helenas city

Senator Wheeler Saws
2-Pri(e Farm Plan
Won't Work
Increase in Exports
Urged by Montonon
As Substitute
By the Associated Press.

| ~ WAC hocOCAubc0 ACSc
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, of
Montana, yesterday described Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wallace's pro-
posed two-price farm program as
"cock-eyed" He urged, instead, an
increase in agricultural exports.
Under Secretary Wallaces recent
ly-outlined program, farm SURPRISES
would be sold to low-income groups
at bargain prices. The government
would make good any losses suffered
on such sales.
Senator Wheeler, who said he now
is working with Northwestern farm
leaders on new agriculture legisla-
ton, told reporters:
"A two-price system for agricul-
ture in the United States-to give
one class one price and another
class another price-is cock-eyed.
Class Hatred Feared.
ut would tend to stir up class
hatred, and would result in all kinds
of devices for cheating. It just
wouldn't work"
The Montana Senator said he
thought a way could be found to
increase agricultural exports with
out payment of export subsidies. A
group of administration officials re-
Gently has been seeking methods Of
increasing wheat exports.
Senator Wheeler said it would be
possible to devise two-price system
under which the farmer would re-
ceive a domestic price for that por-
ton of his commodities sold in this
country and a world price for that
portion sold abroad.
That would give the farmer the
benefit of the home market and the
tariffs which are already on the
statute books" he asserted.
1T has taken the farmers long
time to realize that they have been
buncoed, and that a tariff is not
effective on farm products when
there is surplus. When a surplus
exists the products have to be sold
at world price.
Need for New System Seen.
"If the farmers are going to get
the benefit of the tariff, the Govern
ment has got to step into the picture
and organize some system for sales
at both domestic price and world
price,"
Senator Wheeler, ranking men,
Der of the Senate Agriculture Com
mittee, said the existing farm con-
troll system has been ineffective.
Although some parts Of it might be
incorporated in q new program, he
added, II think we will need q COM
pletely new system"
Discussing other problems before
the coming Congress, the Montanan
said he would support any proposal
to give the United States an air
force equal to or ahead Of any in
the world"
Senator Wheeler described the
construction Of big battleships by
this country as "nonsensical" be-
cause, he said, they are inefncient
for defensive war"
But in view Of the events taking
place in Europe and Asia" he added,
II think the United States should
build up its air force and its anti
aircraft equipment for defense pur-
poses"

While retail trade employment

From November to December $780,
