By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, December 2.—William Childs, president of the company that operates a Nation-wide chain of res. taurants. believes that farmers can solve their economic problems by pro- ducing primarily for the home rather than for the market. “Overproduction creates the prob- | lem.” he writes in the current Rural | New Yorker. “The market is quite ersupplied with common v grades of produce. If all farmers would devote thelr time to providing for the home, accepting | home-making as the first principle and money-making as the second, they would find a_ready market fog thefr urplus produce at better prices. d_produce would bhe of a grade and command a better offers the suggestion as a natural rather than an artificial remedy. such as Federal fixation of crop prices, recently proposed by Edwin T. Meredith, former Secretary of Agriculture. Mr. Childs all his life has been actively identified with farming and at present operates a 600-acre farm in northern New Jersey. Farming as carried on today, he sa is crowding out the single- handed framer. who must give way to farming by capital on the industrial plan, as has been the fate of all kinds of manufacturing. There will always be a place, he insists, for the family farm—the home-makin, farm on which there would be little overpro- ductfon. ““No matter what the con- ditions are,” he concludes, “‘there is always a demand for the best grades at the owner’s prices.” —_— MELLETT JURY ENDS TASK No Additional Indictments Return- ed in Killing of Editor.
