He empha- |sized that “by example and good counsel, ‘all educational and moral forces must wage war against the narcotic effect of alcoholic liquor, and against the temptation which alcoholic drinking habits and con- viviality exercise.” Since drunkenness, which is the effect of the narcotic drug alcohol, is abnormal and makes the drunkard subnormal, no business can reach its normal stage while drunkenness prevails among its potential cus- tomers. R. M. CALDERWOOD. ; Charbonneau, N. D., Sept. 3, 1928. - Fargo, N. Dak., Sept. 8, 1923. | Editor, Bismarck Tribune: Supporters of Smith are spreading propaganda throughout the state and particularly among our farmers |to the effect that Herbert Hoover | was responsible for fixing the price of wheat in 1917 at $220 per bush- el. This propaganda is absolutely false. Mr. Hoover had nothing to |do with determining the price of wheat. A brief review of the facts will prove this contention. In the summer of 1917 the allied Governments had consolidated their buying agencies and through this buying power over the surplus would control the price of American wheat the moment the exports of the new crop would begin. They contended |.that the could buy sufficient wheat ‘bushel. To protect the ‘farmers from this situation Presi- | dent Woodrow Wilson appointed a | so-called “Fair Price Committee” of {the following members: Dr, Harry Mr. Billinger is professor | A. Garfield, President of Williams | | College, Chairman; Mr, Charles J. | Barrett, Pro nt of the Farmers | Union; Mr. William_M. Doak, Vice! President of the Brotherhood of Kailroad Trainmen; Mr. Eugene E. Funk, Pri nt of the National Corn Association; Mr. E. F. Ladd, President of the North Dakota Agr: cultural College, and later Senator from North Dakota; Mr. R. Goodwin Rhett, President of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States; Mr. | J. W. Shorthill. Secretary of the Na- | tional Council of Farmers’ Coopera- tive Associations; Mr. James W. Sullivan, of the American Federation of Labor; Mr. L. J. Taber; Master of the Ohio State Grange; Professor F. Ww. Agussig, of Harvard University, irfan of the United States Tariff Commission; Mr. Theodore N. Vail, President of the American Tel- ephone and Telegraph Company, and Mr. Henry J. Waters, President of he Kansas State Agricultural Col- lege.
