INHOTE h Secretary Hughes ten months ago has it been knoyn that the. commis- sion had the power to sybmit for the government represented. The whole purpose it was reiterated to- day would be to work out a financial plan of reparation frém the German a yeur ago, all states of this district having an increase except North Da- kota. It is remarkable that there should be such an tnerease in aggre- gate purchasing power at the same time that there was a decliné in the value of the wheat crop alone of about 58 million dollars. This means that the. production and prices of other crops have increased values more than double the loss on wheat. A large part of the credit for this satisfactory result must be given to corn which will yield 58 million more bushels and contribute a value of nearly 100 million dollars above a year ago.
