Reed, an employe of the Potomac Electric Power Co., was digging a trench for a conduit in front of the houses under construction when the wall, constructed from large gray stone blocks, fell. Conflicting theories of the cause of the accident were expressed. 1.

But the prices at which surpluses are to be pur- chased are to be determined by the ederal Farm Board, which is to be a governmental agency. The original McNary-Haugen bill provided an elaborate scheme for determining the prices of farm crops in relationship to the prices of other commodities, but in the new measure no such re- striction is placed upon the F arm Board. It is to buy at a “ price. There is a ion of tention that the “fair” price should be the world price plus the margin of the protective tariff, but this would not hold, for instance, in the case of cotton, upon which there is no tariff Fee Denied. it does not involve Gov. since Treasury ad vances are to be repald f{rom the equalization fee. But of the $250- 000,000 to be appropriated as a “re volving fund” it is provided that £100,000,000 shall be immediately available to handle the surplus corn crop, and In the case of corn, which is differentiated from all other major crops. it is specifically provided that “no equalization fee shall be paid or collected.” The suggestion was made toda after a study of the hill, that the p ect involves a peril even greater than mere price-fixing of farm prod ucts. This lies in the method pro: for collecting the equalization fee. Section 10 of the bill say “Prior {o the operation period in re- spect of any ba gricultural com- modity. the hoard shall estimate the probable lodses and expenses to be pald in respect of such oper period. Having due regard to such mates, the board shall determine and ublish the amount for each unit of {ght. measure value designated it to be collected upon the proces i such basic agricultural com modity during such operation period."” he assumption is that in the case of bread grains the equalization fee will be collected by the miller, in the case of animals by the packer, in the ¢ of cotton by the spinner, and so on With the processor thus within the scope of the law, and the prices at which he shall buy his raw determined, the process of g, it is feared, will not stop w material, but will be car ried through to the finished produe And it is one of the gecepted facts of economics that in such a proceeding the increase is at geometrical rather than at arithmetical progression.
