~ SLADE RETIRES BUT TAKES NEW JOB AS | RAILROAD ARBITER Bismarck Visitor Expects to Take Things Easy After He Gets Through With Job George T. Slade of St. Paul, here Monday for a visit with Mr. and Mrs. Xdmond A. Hughes, has retired from ‘Bective business—and has accepted a new job which would challenge the interest of any railroad man with his experience. Slade, be it known, is a son-in-law of the late James J. Hill, He is a di- rector of the Northern Pacific, Great Northern, Burlington and Lehigh Valley railroads and has other busi- ness interests. He can retire if and when he pleases, provided someone doesn’t come along and intrigue him into taking on a new job, which is just what has happened. The new job, judicial in character, will play an important part in the ef- fort of four big eastern railroads to effect mergers and consolidations which will leave them in control of transportation in that part of the country. These lines would like to Present a united front when they ap- ply to the Interstate Commerce Commission for permission to do cer- tain things—but they have some quar- rels which they cannot settle among themselves. ‘That is where Slade enters the pic- ture. He, along with Thomas La- mont, senior partner of J. P. Morgan and company, and Thomas Gates, president of the University of Penn- sylvania, has been asked to serve as an arbitrator to decide these ques- tions. Once they have been agreed upon, the four railroads will ask au- thority from the Interstate Commerce Commission to whack up the eastern railroads into four big systems. They will have more hope of success than if they appear before the federal body and wrangle among themselves. That, one gathers from Slade, is what he and his two fellow arbitrators are to keep them from doing. ‘Under a division of work agreed up- on among the arbitrators, Slade will have to determine what rights, if any, the Nickel Plate shall grant to the Pennsylvania to use its tracks be- tween Ashtabula, O., and Brocton, N. Y. The Nickel Plate and Pennsyl- vania railroads would have little trouble in reaching an agreement were it not for the strenuous objec- tion of the New York Central lines. ‘With these two titans of the rail- oad world battling on an important issue, Slade has taken on a task worthy of a railroad Solomon, but it doesn’t worry him any., He will get ground to that before fong and will take care of it when the time comes. His visit to North Dakota was act- uated by a desire to see how the spring work was coming on his 2,000- acre farm near Dawson. He bought the land many years ago, he said, for use as shooting grounds but in recent vears has become more and more in- opinions. He offered no suggestion as to the business of the country or how to cure its ills. Asked how he liked farming and if he had made money at it, Slade’s face expressed polite and repressed pain. One could see that he hadn't. Bismarck’s Monday evening visitor is a fine-appearing gentleman, standing six feet tall or better with a ruddy com] and erect car- riage.

STONE REITERATE FARM BOARD PLAN Says Stabilization Will Be Dropped and 35,000,000. Bushels Sold Washington, April 21.—()—Chair- man Stone of the farm board said in a statement Tuesday the board’s de- cision of several months ago to sell 35,000,000 bushels of the wheat abroad and to refrain from making stabiliza- tion purchases from the 193¢ crop was unchanged. “The board has made no dccisions in regard to future wheat stabiliza- tion operations except those previous- ly announced,” he said. “These are (1)—That an effort will be made to sell abroad by July 1, 35,- 000,000 bushels of out-of-position wheat stored at Atlantic, Guif and cific Northwest seaports, and (2)— t stabilization purchases will not be made from the 1931 crop. “Any statement that the farm board at this time contemplates any other action is erroneous.” Stone said Monday that between 7,000,000 and 8,000,000 bushels of the 35,000,000 bushels had been sold abroad at a price slightly above the world level.
