Hugh 8S. Johnson, NRA administra- tor, left other things to his aides while he went to Chicago for the first speech on a peace-seeking tour of the farm belt. Agriculture officials at the same time put into effect and sought to develop a corn-hog pro- gram to help farmers in the corn country. Johnson planned to extend this week's tour to Minneapolis, Des Moines, Omaha, Kansas City, Tulsa, Fort Worth, and Louisville. Secre- tary Wallace on Saturday will ad- dress farmers and businessmen in Des Moines. Before Johnson left Washington, neither he nor Wallace made public comment on the farm program pre- sented Saturday by five midwest gov- ernors and rejected by President Roosevelt, Two new processing taxes were in effect Monday, on schedule, to raise money which is to be turned over to farmers who agree to reduce crops. Five Cents on Corn One was five cents a bushel on corn; that will be raised’ to 30 cents Dec. 1. The other was on h cents a hundredweight, increasing gradually to $2 by Feb. 1. To obtain part of the $350,000,000 in payments, farmers must agree to reduce next year’s corn acreage 20 per cent and narketed hog tonnage 25 per cent. With more than 25,000,000 of the ‘nation’s farm population of 32,000,000 already affected by the farm adjust- ment pi , there was every in- dication the administration intended to adhere to a development of that, hoping, meanwhile, that farmers could be convinced they should wait a little longer. . FURTHER PROBE OF MISSOURI DIVERSION President Promises Engineers Will Make New Study; Take Sympathetic Stand Washington, Nov. 6.—(4)—Carrying assurance from the president that funds would be allocated for further luvestigation of the Missouri river di- version project, a delegation of North Dakotans was on the way home Mon- j@ay to report progress in the state’s request for $65,000,000 of public works money. After a week in Washington, dur- ing which they saw the president twice and were accorded two hearings before the Mississippi valley commit- ‘ee of the public works administra- tion, the group was confident their oleas had fallen on friendly ears. 8. W. Thompson, president of the Missouri River Diversion association, reported before his departure that President Roosevelt expressed himself as interested in the project and had given his word money would be forth- coming for further surveys by army engineers of the proposed dam site at Garrison, N. D. ‘The “president, Thompson said, had ziven his message Saturday to Miss Nellie Dougherty, Democratic na- tional committeewoman from North Dakota, and Fred W. McLean, chair- tan of the Democratic central com- mittee of that state. GOVERNMENT PLANS Here summed up are the programs besides corn-hogs, in force or plan- ned: Wheat Checks Issued Wheat—More than 500,000 farmers controlling about 80 per cent of the nation’s average harvested wheat acreage have signed agreements to cut plantings next year 15 per cent. ‘The first checks in benefit payments to be made this fall have reached Monona county, Iowa, farmers. More acreage will be taken out than the 7,800,000 acres which contracting farmers agreed not to plant with ad- ministrators planning to accomplish this through separate agreements vith farmers to abide by the London Is Not Final Approval Thompson explained assurance of tunds for investigation did not mean the administration had given final ‘pproval to the project. He pointed out that even the president could not sanction a grant of public works funds unless the army engineers first pass- .{€d favorably on the physical aspects of the proposal.

Immediately afterward a Great Northern railway bridge negr James was burned in what was believed to be a new effort to halt freight shipments. Governor Herring said he had been advised of the burning of the bridge. There was a bright spot in the in- dustrial picture, however, when John D.
