Because of overproduction there is a difficult economic problem in the Mid- dle West, principally in the wheat-pro- ducing States, Mr. Page said, adding that this condition will be improved. He said that in his opinion the Repub- {lican tariff has done much to preserve The meeting was jr.sided over by | Edgar C. Snyder, United States marshal ‘for the District and president of the | League of Republican State Clubs. The | meeting was held in the club rooms, at 1331 G street.
