FURD AND BYRD IN CONPLETE ACCORD Former Will Assist Scientist in ] New Expedition Detroit, Mich., Aug. 2 (UP)—As- sured of the financlal assistance of ‘Wenry and Edsel Ford, Commander Richard E. Byrd was en route today to Boston to resume preparations fot his projected flight over the south pole. Byrd came here yester- dey and conferred with the Ford's who offered him the use .of any of their great flcet of planes and the facilities of their giant metal plane plant in perfecting the craft he will use on the polar flight. Edsel Ford expressed great ad- mirdtion for the explorer, sayving “He is a gentleman and a scientist.” Byrd admired Henry Ford “be- cause he is a dreamer and puts his ideals into practice.” After conferring with the Fords all day, Byrd secretly boarded a train last night to return to Boston. | ‘Whilé here, Byrd inspected the “Josephine Ford” tri-motored Fok- ker plane, in which he flew over the north pole last year. The Tord air- port is the permanent home of the historic plane, which was named for 1dsel Ford's daughter. BRITISH FARMERS FAGE HARD TIMES ‘Having Their Ovn Troubles These Days London, Aug. 2 (P—DBritish farm- ers, ad well as American, have ex- perienced difficult times ddring the past few years. The average level of prices of ag- rieultural produce is lower than in any year since 1915, says a ‘eport on the prices and supplics of az cultural produce and requirements in England and Wales issued by the Ministry of Agriculture. Wheat shows the least ehange in price among cereals, Darley and oats have fallen sharply compared with 1924-5, but whereas barley has shown some recovery, (3 were only 18 per cent above pre-war level. Potatoes; owing to short crop in 1926, have recovered dur- ing the present havest year from the low prices prevalent in 19 Both fat cattle and fat sheep have fallen heavily in price. Fat pigs, on the other hand, are well ahove 1924-5 prices, and in view of the lower prices of feeding stuff, the prices of fat pigs have proved remunerative. Milk has declined somewhat af- ter being virtually stationary threp years, butter has fallen stead- ily, and cheese after showing an improvement in 1925-6, has fallen sharpl yto the low level of 32 per cent above pre-war, Poultry and eggs are both lower.

The general declining tendency is even more marked during ‘lhe first months of this year. For the six months ending in March the average has heen below the corre- sponding months of the previous year. These lower averages have been due very largely to the re- duced prices of fat stock and milk, which copstitute more than half the output from British farms. The decline in the price of fat cattle has been' relatively very sharp, prices of these during the past six months have been about 11 per cent lower than a year earlier. Agricultural. wages have re- mained at a standstill for some time, the average being about $8 per wee which is per cent above weekly wages paid in 1914.
