BILLION DOLLARS FROM WHEAT CROP Reports From Agricultural Dis- fricts Optimistic —— Washington, Oct. 2.—The wheat crop this year will return to the American growers about one billion dollars’ in cash at country points, Managing Director Meyer of the war finance corporation téld Secre- tary Mellon today. His statement was on the basis of*an investigation in the wheat producing areas. In the memorandum to the treas- ury head Mr. Meyer declared aiso that railroad transportation was handling the crop in a manner “al- most without precedent.” “In ~few of the unusually rapid | flow of wheat to market,” the mem-’ orandum said, “I have had an In-| formal investigation made in the west of the adequacy of the machin- ery for handling the marketing of, the crop. I am glad to be able 40| say that the reports are most op(}- mistic and that, in fact, the railroad | transportation seems to be adequate | to the task and practically no sub- | stantial car shortages are reparte‘).} “On the contrary, rallroad effi- | clency in moving the crop is almost without precedent. Adequate finan- cial support is being provided all along the line. A remarkably satis- | factory export demand is being tak en care of by full and adequate sup- | ply of ocean tonnage to move the | surplus to export markets with all| possible promptness. “It is a matter of-great satisfac- tion that this year's great wheat| crop, grown as it was on a ten per cent smaller acreage than last year's is bringing the farmer a biillon dol- Jars cash at country points.” COLLEGE PRESIDENT DEFENDS FLAPPERS Says There Is More fo Them Than Bobbed Hair —— Boston, Oct. 2:—The bobbed hair girl was defended by President Lemuel H.
