By the Associated Press i NEW YORK, August 13.—Thomas D, Campbell of Hardin, Mont., who has been called the world's largsst wheat grower, returned last night on the liner Europa from & trip to Russia as agri- cultural consultant to the Soviet, and announced that it would be longer | than alarmists thought before Russia ! was a factor in any export field. | “As the country’s five-year program progresses,” he said, “the needs of the , country also increase. The more she i grows the more she consumes. It will | be at least three years before the Soviet | government is a factor in the export of | grain or any other commodity. Internal Needs Cited. “Very soon the internal needs of the country will call for a billion bushels | of wheat annually, justas an example.” | campbell, who has gone to Russia several times on a like mission, said that this time he found only minor | suggestions to make in connection with the Russian agricultural program. “Their problem now,” he said, “is transportation of grain. I have recom- | | mended a three-year program of roads and trucks which will call for the pur- chase of between 50,000 and 60,000 trucks.” During that three-year period | | Russia plans, he said, to spend $875,- 1000,000 on agriculture. | Machine to Utilize Flax Waste.

MUNICH, (N.AN.A).—Munich is| sore let and hindered in pursuing its normal way. Indeed, its citizens are obliged to put themselves to the trouble of crossing the Czechoslovakian frontier. They are becoming horribly nomadic and crossing it more and more fre- quently. And this because Pilsner beer costs only 25 pfennig per half-litre across the border,while her own excise officers have declared that Munich shall pay 35 pfennig for the same amount. ‘The Bavarian is a mighty beer drinker, and every Sunday you will see him crossing the border in his tens of thousands to save goodness knows how many times ten pfennig. Munich is ruffied: it looks as though the excise men will have to relent or get the Czech frontier moved a little nearer. (Copsright, 1930. by North American News- paper Alliance.)
