CHICAGO, March 21.—Agriculture can face -the immediate future with every confidence that its chiet prob- lems are assured of solution and its future s certain, Jullus H. Barnes, former director of the United States ‘Wheat Corporation, said in a speech here. Declaring that the treatles of the armament conference “constitute the first long step In the direction of a world-wide treatment of world-wide problems,” Mr., Barnes asserted that the consequences of a possible re- Jjection of these treaties were ap- palling. He sald that a result of re- Jection would be that “the steady ap- proach to a more stable finance and exchange would be destroyed and re- viving ~commerce thrown bavk to chaos.” Making Remedies Effective. “No industry would feel this result again so quickly as agriculture, and surely there must be ratification of this effort to provide the method of making effective commerclal and fi- nanclal remedles,” he declared. “The American farmer can be told today that the day of opportunity for agriculture has arrived. It can Le told that thrift and energy In agriculture pursuits may now count with confidence on the reward of those fundamental qualities. “Industry may be told that on basls of revived agriculture now assured, it may begin to frame its productive program afresh. At home and abroad, the skles are definitely. clearjng, and the record of progress in the healthly restoration of our Industries will be, 1 belleve, day by day, clear.” increasingly Reasons for Optimism.
