Y N 4 \ mo Le OF WHEAT, SAY DR. COULTER Traces Many of Ills to Huge Over-Production Through- out the World in Wheat NORTHWEST SITUATION Fargo, July 31.—Unless the winter wheat states and Canada with their huge increases in wheat production join # concerted move to market the surplus of American wheat in Europe at low world prices, and then sell the wheat which America requires at the world price plus the tariff wall which amounts to about 30 cents, little can be done in America to raise the price of wheat, is the opin- ion expressed yesterday by Dr. John Lee Coulter, president of the North Dakota Agricultural college, in com- menting upon the present wheat cris- 8. The spring wheat s¥ea, including ‘Minnesota, North Dakota /and South Dakota has alreay done its share in decreasing the production of wheat as production figures show, but their decreased production has been offset by the tremendous increases in the winter wheat areas and in Canada, according. to Dr, Coulter. Thesé areas are the ones which are breaking the wheat market. Acreage Cut Here These three spring wheat states lave actually decreased their wheat acreage by 3,500,000 acres from the five-year average for 1909 to 1923,” said Dr. Coulter. - “They have cut down their production to less ‘than the increase they made, during the war. In the place of wheat they are increasing their acreages of corn, pasture, hay, and are building up their livestock industry. From 480,- 000 acres of corn in 1918, North Da- kota has increased her acreage to 721,000 acres in 1923. We can talk,all we want to about cutting down wheat production, but the place where the talk,is needed is in the win- ter wheat areas, “Argentina, India, and Australia are the three great producers of wheat outside of Europe, but their total average acreage from 1909 to 1923 is only about 5,000,000 acres. This slight increase does not quite make up for the reduction in acreage in Europe since pre-war days. Increase Winter Wheat “The real wheat problems lies not in these foreign export countries but in the winter wheat belt of the United States and in Canada. The winter wheat states have increased their acreage almost 17,000,000 over the acreage in the period 1909 to 1923. Such states as New York and Ohio have seeded 500,800 more acres of wheat this year than they did during the pre-war years. Illinois has 1,013,000 acres. more, Missouri has an increase of 800,000 acres, Texas, 1,000,000 acres more. The same_ in- crease in shown in figures for Okla- homa, Kansas, Nebraska, and also in Oregon, Washington and California. “In pre-war days Canada had an average wheat acreage of less than 10,000,000 but this year she is grow- i 000,000 acres, Before the war her wheat production was seldom more than 200,000,000 bushels, but now the figure stands closer to 400,000,000 bushels.

NESTOS URGES CONGRESS TO TAKE ACTION (Continued from m Page One) drowning man cried for help, threw him a crow bar, and that when ‘our farmers are asking for a plank to help keep them afloat until they can get to shore, that instead we may give them something that will speed their sinking and insure their stay at the bottom. This must be avoided and surely it should be possible to devise legislation of such a charac- ter as to relieve the great and im- mediate distress and at the same time insure that the remedy applied will not bring in its wake still great- er distress in the years to come. Grain Corporation Idea “Ht has been suggested—and there seems to be much merit in the sug- gestion—that the best way of ren- dering immediate relief is by a re- vival of the Grain Corporation of war days and the use of its powers in helping to give the farmers this year such price for his wheat as will make it possible for him to escape disas- ter. “It is urged iby many, and conceded by most, that as a general .proposi- tion it is not sound economics to fix prices, but I contend that the condi- tion of our American farmer today is such as to create a situation very much similar to that of the war per- iod, and that especi the fact that the whcat was fixed during the war at a figore way below what the farmers could and would have secured if this price had not been fixed, that it would be but fair that something in the line of price-fixing should be un- dertaken now to prevent prices from g to the other extreme. “When fire fighters in combating a great city conflagration dynamite or. tear down good brick buildings in the path of the fire, it is not their contention that the practice of tear- ing down good brick buildings is| sound economics, but that under all! the circumstances they are warrant- ed in doing it in order that by this act they may save the city from a much greater disaster. So I feel it is with our farmers today, and that our country is abundantly warranted in taking any step necessary ‘to a reasonable price for our wheat in order that by doing so the country may. avoid the far greater pdisaster which will result unless the wheat raisers are helped out of their Present great distress. “I am confident also that even while we are urging upon congress the need of this legislation to reliev: our immediate distress, that we owd American agriculture the duty of | continuing the study of the economic features and the working out of the best possible solution of this sound economics, Must Cut Acreage “it American wheat demands, and only when-our production is auch! to meet: the: demands of the average ly hope for an,im- ‘year can f Proved condition for our Ameri “I personally believe that the em | Bureaw Federation and the: National ‘Wheat Growers aye ‘working out the] | problem along sqpnd and sane:lines, their {and that, these we sane hate 0; apport ‘wear | 224 « constant aid ‘of our businessmen seal eh be given thi Bismarck |] 1923, the following resolution |f city because it has had: the benefit |j all occasions for the betterment and |} ro- blem for the future along Tisign of ms to me that from the} ide it is a question of fitt- ing American. wheat prodyction to. that| into his room and I said: ‘Mr. Se LAID TO REST A.

Favorable conditions also were found, such as the absence of peri- tonal symptoms, freedom in the pass- |. ages of the lungs, satisfactory func- tioning of the kidneys, and no evid- vous’ system except fatigue which on- ly absolute rest can dissipate. The diagnosis was presented in the form of a bulletin’ made public after a consultation about mid-forenoon.

General Sawyer, supplement- ed the night statement in a frank talk with newspapermen in the course of which he said the word “serious” as used in the bulletin meant not that the president’s condition was “grave” but as “threatening to be- come dangerous.” “The storm warnings are up,” said General Sawyer. “That is what I mean by ‘serious.’” State of, Lungs Most Important The president’s physician showed no hesitancy in declaring that the most threatening complication was “the oedematous condition of the lungs” which made its appearance during the afternoon. He announced that x-ray photovraphs had been take en with the aid of which he hoped to be ‘able to ascertain by morning or some time tomorrow whether there might’be an inflammation of a grave nature. At the present time, Gacerat ‘Saw- yer said, there was in progress a battle between the resistixe forces of the patient, which, he said, had been weakened as a result of the try ing physical exertions which attend- ed his travels, and the attacking forces which grew out of the original ptomaine poisoning. “We are running with a veryahand- icapped machine,” he added, meaning the president’s physical being. “The liability is the condition with which we now have to contend and the possible implication of other :or- gans as none of which is safe from attack under such circumstances, General Sawyer said that the sit- uation might be summarized by say- ing that “president had the predis- position (to resist the attacking forces), than the exciting cause (ptomaine poisoning) and now is handicapped in an effort to throw off complications which have and may continue to arise.” The problem at this time, said larly as it had been possible to local- ize the trouble—the first requisite to successful treatment. Information coming from the. sick room of the president on the top floor of the Palace Hotel, far remov- ed from the noise and bustle of the city, seemed to strengthen the. feel- ing of optimism. FATHER FOLLOWS REPORTS Marion, Ohio., July 31—By-the As- sociated Press)—Dr. George T. Hard- ing, father of the- president, Iast night received a telegram from: Bri- gadier General C. E. Sawyer, the president’s personal physician which stated that the chief executive was “doing well” and that “on the whole he is better.” The telegram also stated that Mrs, Harding was “well.” As the aged father of the president eagerly scanned every news bulletin on his son’s condition, he recalled that while the president was a yauth he had a “severe attack” of lung fever. The president's father said that about 20 years ago Mr. Harding had suffered several slight attacks of in- digestion, which were accompanied by a slight dilation of the heart, These were, however, of short duration and did not confine hif to his bed, the president’s father added. ‘SISTER NOT ALARMED Santa Ana, Cal.,| July 31.—Mrs. E. T. Remsberg, sister of President Harding said that while her brother’s illnes worried her, “she whs not alarmed as to the outcome.” “I know my brother “is receiving the best possible medical attention,” she said. “His strenuous trip is un- doubtedly the chief reasén why the ptomaine poisoning is having puch a severe effect.” PRAY FOR RECOVERY .. New York, July 31.—Prayers for the recovery of President Harding were offered last night at mecting held here by 1,000 young men who will leave tomorrow for the citizens ray training camp at Plattsbure, BRIEF FILED IN CITY BOND ISSUE MATTER General Sawyer, is to get the machine strengthened so that it will have Power to resist the attacks being made upon it. He added that it is impossible to say when that stage in the case woutiftbe reached. Pneui ja) plained Asked about: t§@ possibility of pneumonia resulting from the oede- matous condition of the lungs, the physician id that” was not! a bility in the ‘eax mi that pneumonia is a of tivity, within the body, of a pneumonia germ. There might arise.an inflam- mation which would be just as seri- ous as pneumonia, he added. Explaining the -increased pulse} noted in the bulletin last night, Gen- eral Sawyer asserted that a) complications present discovered united in increasing thé strain upon the patient’s heart. “When his heart is beating above normal,” he said, “it can be readily seer that the situation is serious,” Dr. Sawyer declared there was no intention or consideration being giv- n to removal of the president to any rhospital in San Francisco or to any other city. “We are as well equipped to. take care’ of Mr. Harding here right in this hotel and in this city aswe would be anywhere in the world,” he asserted.

Twenty men were sent out of the local free employment of- fice yesterday to various parts of the state. ° Governor Nestos today, in view of the new rate Becoming effective to- morrow, made the following state- ment: On Wednesday will go into effect the five dolar rate on harvest labor from Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth and Superior, and the six dollar and a half rate from Sioux City, Iowa, to any, point in the state of North Da- kota. It is to be hoped that the grant- ing of this low rate will result in an influx of first class laborers for the needs of the farmers of our state. We realize that the men who really want to work are employed this year to a far greater extent than was the case last year and that for this rea- son it is going to be very difficult to get a sufficient supply of the right kind of farm labor. I hope therefore that two things will be done. That in every commun- ity of this state, farmers and bus- iness men will write letters to their friends-and relatives Yiving within a hundred wiles of the twin cities and of Sioux City to urge upon them that they combine in groups of five and purchase these tickets to North Dakota. This the most effective and satisfactory form: of advertising and will be most productive of re- sults not only in getting harvest la- bor but in securing renters and land purchasers for next year. In addition to that, every commun- ity where there is a good crop should be organized in such a way that noi only the available labor upon tie farms can be wu: but that as many as possible of business men the towns devote a period of two ur three weeks to help save the crops and to keep as much as possible of the crop moneys at home for debt- paying purposes, WEATHER FORECASTS For Bismarck and vicinity: Un- settled with showers this afternoon and probably tonight; cooler tonight; Wednesday generally fair.
