By the Associated Press. The task of improving the agricul- tural situation in the Western Hemi- sphere through co-operative effort has been placed before the governments of the American Republics by their repre- sentatives at the first Inter-American Conference on Agriculture, Forestry and Animal Industry. After two weeks of discussing agricul- tural research, production and market- ing, agricultural specialists from nearly every American country signed recom- mendations looking toward improve- | ments ranging from a plan of crop stabilization to establishment of a Pan- American agricultural bank to handle rural credits. Plan Second Meeting. The desirabllity of econtinuing the inter-American conferences was em- phasized by individual delegates, and formal provision was made for & second meeting, to be held within the next five years at a time and place to be set by the Pan-American Union. A large part of the delegates’ atten- tion was devoted to improving methods of co-operative research for the de- tion of American plant and animal The immediate importance of production and marketing problems also was given consideration. Tariff Plan Rejected. An effort to inject the question of United States tariff regulations into the conference fell short when the Resolutions Committee failed to approve & proposal by Pascual Gutierrez-Roldan, a member of the Mexican delegation and agricultural attache at the embassy here, that the conference address a friendly request to the United States Government for a study of the new tariff law with a view to some readjust- ment, Advertisement of American products, particularly in countries where pos- sibilities for great expansion were seen in the markets of such commodities as coffee and sugar, was recommended as an important means of contributing to relief from overproduction. This project was proposed first in connection with coffee, but later was embodied in resolu- tions applying likewise to sugar, cereals, cotton, meats and other products. OWNERS WIN WHISKY VALUED AT $100,000 Government Loses Case to Destroy Liquor in Chicago Ware- house. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, September 20.— Some $100,000 worth of Bibley warehouse whisky today became the undisputed property of a group of whisky brokers and private individuais when the Pro- hibition Bureau lost its suit to have the liquor destroved. ‘The Government charged that the liquor had been diluted with water and started a libel proceedings to destroy it as unfit. Presiding Judge Alschular of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals decided today, however, that the liquor was potable and should be returned to custody of its owners, Rumors that hoodlums and gangsters had rified the warchouse under the noses of prohibition agents crystallized in 1929, when it was announced that about 50,000 gallons of liquor had been tampered with. It was then the Gov- ernmeint moved to libel the affected liquor. The owners retorted that they had no access to their property, and that whatever substitutes occurred must have been in spite of whatever care and vigilance was exercised by Gov- ernment officers in charge. As a result of Judge Alschuler’s rul- ing the owners may now dispense the liquor to hospitals and drug stores in accordance with Government regula- tions.
