D., July 30.—Con- ressman George M. Young wrote to ank W. Murphy of Wheaton, pres- ident of State Fair Board, who was one of the speakers at the mass meeting of farmers at Wheaton last week, who assembled to consider the crisis among wheat farmers. Young and Murphy were classmates at the ersity of Minnesota, The Con- man suggested in his letter that these intere in stabilization of j wheat prices in Minnesota and North Dakota should get together and agree upon a plan to present to all the other wheat states. Young threw out a broad hint in repeated statements at the Wheaton meeting that Congress must do something would lead to somewhere and that a concrete plan should be agreed upon and presented to Congress. Congressman Young’s letters follows: “Dear Frank: The dispatches today tell of your meeeting at Wheaton yesterday for the purpose of calling on Congress for relief for wheat growers. The report indicates that you made an excellent speech and said some good things, as well as did the other speakers, but it is observable that ach speaker concluded with the de- mand that Congress must do some- | thing. What it is to do was not point- ed out, and my impression is we will never get anywhere by scattering in |that fashion. The fact that you propose to hold similar meetings in every county in Minnesota indicates great earnestness upon the part of your wheat growers. Judging from our experience in the past in attempting to stabilize wheat prices two things should be kept in nind, first, not to continue or renew |the demand for the Government _ to purchase outright the wheat at a fix- ed guaranty price, because Congress has already more than once turned that proposition down, and chiefly be- cause eastern and southern farmers who outnumber our wheat farmers 2 to 1 absolutely opposed the making of such a Government guaranty/ The other thing, if possible, is for wheat growers to get behind some one def- inite proposition, and not, as in the t, split up in such a way that |some support one pafticular theory jand some another, With this in view I wonder if some jof your people and ours could not get together at a central point with a view to agreeing upon a plan to propose to Congress, say at Fargo. A number of us in Stutsman and Barnes counties have been putting in a lot of thought on this. At gather- ings this week at both Jamestown and Valley City we approved a plan for the revival of the United States Grain Corporation, which we are con- fident willdifve highly beneficial re- “Nellie,” the French poodle dog of Mrs. Francis Diehl, Cincinnati, in an “unusual” animal contest.

I enclose herewith copy of the resolutions. The one enclosed happens to be the one which was adopted at Valley City, but the same resolution was also adopted at Jamestown. The method by which the proposed United States Grain Corporation shall handle the wheat crop will doubtless be out- lined in North Dakota and Twin City papers tomorrow, because the Asso- ciated Press man at Jamestown said today that reports would go out to- night by wire. The meeting at Jamestown was composed of both farmers and bus- iness men who were unanimous for the proposition. The most active among them are A. B. DeNault and James A. Buchanan, who were both delegates to the Chicago Wheat Con- ference, and also Editor Kellogg of the Jamestown Alert. At Valley City the Leonard Ward, President, adopted the resolutions, but a number of farmers were invited to sit in along with them, and I am confident that both gatherMgs were representative of the entire citizenship of both coun- ties. Now, Frank, if we are to get any- where I think we should all get to- gether and work for the same thing. We are dead in carnest up here and we are willing to work with youspeo- ple in Minnesota and all the other western states if we can arrive at a common working basis.

JUVENILE BAND BENEFI U.8, HEADS LIST OF RICHEST MEN Henry Ford Heads List, Rockefeller, Second and Mellon Third ‘ London, July 30.—Who are the ten richest men in the world? asks the Sunday Express. “It ‘answers the query itself by giving a list at the head of which is Henry Ford, whose fortune it estimates at $500,000,000. John D. Rockefeller come next with $450,000,000; Andrew W. Mellon, sec- retary of the treasury,-{s third with $150,000,000, and then follow the Duke of Westminister, Sir Basil Za- haroff, Hugo Stinnes, Percy Rocke- feller, Baron H. Mitsui, Baron H. Iwasaki, and the Gaekwar of Baroda, each with $100,000,000, James B. Duke, the tobacco king; George F. Baker, of the First Nation- a] Bank of New York, and T. B. Walker the Minneapolis timber land- owner, the Express says, might be added to the list, since they all have fortunes estimated at $100,000,000, while there are at least three other Indian rulers whose fortunes prob- ably exceed this amount. The Rothschilds, Guggenheims, Vanderbilts, Weycrhhousers, and the Vanderbilts, Veyerhausers, and the Astors, says the writer, do not ‘ap- pear because theirs are family for tunes. The Rothschild wealth has AU uuu a ear! \Men’s Glee Club of North Western College Naperville, IL t 12 People in Concert Company 12 Help Boost BOYS’ and GIRLS’ BAND By | ae cet ON TOUR OF UNITED STATES aati, Tickets 75c... Packi Y been estimated at from $250,000,000 to $500,000,000 and that of the Astors at from. $100,000,000 to $500,000,000. Henry Ford is possibly the richest hyn nin al} tory, the paper de- clares. He has a net business in- come of more than $10,000,000 a year. He carfis $250 every minute. Croesus may have been richer, since his famous gift to Delphi cost $10, 000,000, and that, reduced to today’s terms, might mean $200,000,000, John D. Rockefeller gave away $500,000,008 $o charity and to founda- tions before 1921. He is the head, however, of the biggest group ot® wealthy men ever produced by a sip- gle industry, and his private fortune must still rank him second, Sir Basil Zaharoff is Europe’s mys. tery man, but it is no mystery t! he is one of Europe's wealthiest men. He/ owns more than half of Monta Carlo, and his holdings in arma ment firms are even larger. He is in oil, finance, shipping; in fact, it is difficult to say what he is not inter- ested in. \The Mitsuis and the Iwasakis are financiers, traders, and shippers. The Gackwar of Baroda’s weather is al- most impossible to estimate, but his diamonds alone are valued at $1,250,- 000, and he has a jewelled tapestry worth $1,509,000.
