New Federal Wheat DIrwtor Thinks
Die World Market Will Be as High
or Higher Than the Guaranteed
Prloc.—Talks About Lowering Cost

AND THEY SAID WE COULDNT FIGHT!
(Associated Press Dl«p»tch)
New York, April 21.—Despite main
tenance of the government guaranteed
price in the face of an American wheat
crop which will probably break all
records, domestic consumers will not
yay more for the product during the
•oming year than the rates concur-
rently accepted from foreign buyer*
Julius H. Barnes, newly appointed
federal wheat director, assured the
public In a statement tonight out
liningthe policies of his administration
Mr. Barnes termed unsound any gov
eriiment scheme for artificial subldii
ing and thought It quite possible, with
the greater part of Kurope looking to
America for food and the crop pros
pects of the allied countries even poor
er than last year, that little inroad
would be made on the billion dollar
fund provided by congress to carry
out the farmer*' guarantee of $2.20 a
bushel.
World Prloe for Surplus
However, should there be a surplus
production of wheat, he said, tho
national treasury would be protected
as far as possible In making good the
difference between the guarantee and
market rates by determination of a
world prlve for the sale of the surplus.
At present the world price exceeds the
government price. How much of the
federal appropriation will be expend
ed, the director stated, would depend
on "the harvest, as would also the gov-
ernment policy in buying and selling
portions of the crop. Until facts con
cerning the 1919 yield were more gen
eraily known, he added, no definite
plan of operation could be intelligent-
ly adopted.
Plans To Meet Priecs
Tn relation to federal acquisition
of wheat, which he predicted would
bo carried out on an extensive scale,
enforcing the farmers' guarantee, par
tlcularly If the world price should be
lower than the government basis, ef-
fective until June 1, 1920, Mr. Barnes
said three plans were under consider
atlon: Direct dealing with the farm
era which would bring the director
Into contact with 1,000,000 persons
purchasing through the country grain
exchanges, which would necessitate
keeping 20,000 accounts, and buying
through the mill, which would re
duee the number of clients to 7,000.
Sale of Stock
As to sale of government acquired
Stocks, the director said that congress
with a clear conception of-the dlffl
cultles of the coming year, had dele
gated to the president large powers,
and discretion, which would be at the
service of the wheat administration.
The sale policy, he stated, would be
determined by factors developing
with the season and the license pow-
er would be used to control trade prac-
tices to assure proper reflection of the
guaranteed prices reaching all classes
of producers.
No 5-Cent I,oaf In Sight.
Excepting the department of ag
rlculture's estimate of the largest
winter wheat crop in history, and mak-
ing allowances for unfavorable weath
er conditions which had held the
spring crop back two weeks, Mr.
rues predicted that Americas 191)

editorial commenting on the failure o
the racial equality clause to secure a
place in the covenant of the league
of nations, the Japan Times declares
that the national disappointment of

resentative Japanese regard the Paris

tion, the newspaper says.
japan's admission to the company
of the great powers must be considered
as only for the political conveniences
of the allies, the Times declares, and
It compares Japan's position to that
of a negro preacher asked to speak in
church because of his oratorical pow-
ers but who is not considered the
racial equal of the white cortgrega

"It 1s well for Japan to remember
this point," the newspaper adds. "The

Berlin. Sunday. April 20.—The
cabinet devoted less than half an
hour to the formulation of Its answer
to the entente's Invitation to Ver-
sailles for tho purpose of receiving a
draft of the peace terms. A feeling
of gloom prevails In official circles
tonight, and the Associated Press la
told that there are no illusions as to
obtaining any mitigation In the dic-
tatorial peace awaiting Germany.
The procedure of the council of
four came as a surprise, notwith-
standing the fact that the now* of
the past week foreshadowed It and
It is Interpreted In cabinet circles
and at the foreign office as final
proof that the entente is disinclined
forthwith *o enter Into negotiations
based on President Wilson's "four-
teen' points" and that the terms
awaiting Germany are cut and dried
TIk* German Emissaries.
The German emissaries will mere
ly have Instructions to carry the
peace document back to Berlin. The
question whether the present govern-
ment will assume the responsibility
of accepting or rejecting the terms
or whether It will present them for
national referendum Is a matter
conjecture. Official opinion, so
far asuadduced tonight, was onposed
the declaration of a referendum
nd In favor of peremptory declina-
tion of peace terms based on nny
other proposition than Mr. Wilson's
platform, as the present temper of
the German workinemer. <■. I'"11
capitalistic and antl-lmperiallstlc and
the bourgeoisie is in full accord with
the proletariat. The present govern-
ment, it has been learned Is not
flirting with the Idea of a plebiscite
as It would much rather negotiate
peace and set the country at work.
But It Is also conscious that a peace
settlement In which Germany has
not had a vofce would precipitate
storm of national resentment
which no cabinet could weather.
The communication from the en-
tente powers was received here last
Friday and the German answer was
wired back this afternoon. Phlllpp
Scheldemann, the chancellor, called
in representatives of the German
press and informed them of the
government's action.
Paris, April 21.—This morning's
newspapers see In Germany's sending
couriers'' Instead of delegates of
proper standing to Versailles nothing
hut evidence of bad faith and a
transparent maneuver to gain time.
The Echo de Paris, says: .
"The allied and associated gov-
ernments are determined not to ac-
cept subordinate personages, and
Germany will be immediately notified
that she must send delegates entilm
ped with full powers to conclude
peace, t'pon their arrival at Ver-
sailles the first step will be to de-
mand from them evidence that they
hold those powers."
The Gaulois, Indignant at what it
describes as "the Impertinence of
Germany's coup de theatre." which
it regards as a refusal to sign the
treatv says:

the first town in Bel! county to
report that it is over the top in
the Victory Eiberty l,oan. According
to witnesses the final tnove that put
Kogers over wan one of the most
touching scenes ever staged In the
community.
"Rogers lost nW of her son* In
battle In the present war. When the
committee called the community to-
gether yesterday afternoon at 6
o'clock and informed the people that
about six or seven thousand dollars
were needed to complete the quota
here was a rush for bond applica-
tions and in almost less than a min-
ute, after the announcement, the
quota was subscribed.

Hr. It. B- Curtis of Rogers re-
ceived a letter from Ergnce yester-
day morning In which was a French
medal for bravery for his son who
lost his life in France. Tills cir-
cumstance together with the knowl-
edge that eight other Rogers boys
had laid down their lives while
fighting seemed to set the communi-
ty afire. When the final count was
made Rogers was several thousand
dollars over the quota assigned. A
great celebration followed which was
likened by many to a great religious
revival meeting.
Judge Blair states that Rogers
will receive two service flags, one
for going over the top, and another
for setting an example for the oth-
er communities in Bell county. Ev-
ery business house In Rogers was
closed during the day and everyone
worked to make the thing a success.
R. E. Guess was In charge of the
campaign.

Killeen is expected to go over the
top In a similar manner on the 26th
of April when nil business houses
will be closed until the quota is sub-
scribed. No report had been receiv-
ed from Troy at a late hour last
night. Belton reported that one-
fifth of her quota was subscribed
during day. All communities except
Holland have completed their organ-
ization according to county salesman.
W. J. Bassett. He states that he
expects that an organization will be
completed In a few days so that the
drive will be put over In a manner
befitting to the town and as Judge
Blair says, "In good old time style."
Results In Temple.
In Temple over $r>0,000 was Rub-
scribed during the day at the Vic-
tory Liberty T/>an bank. The results
were disappointing to some of the
committee but it Is thought that to
day there will be an increased busi-
ness when the regular banks open
so that people may confer with their
bankers. Yesterday was a holiday
and all banking Institutions were
closed. Everyone Is urged to respond
to the letters sent out by the com-
mittee. The Santa Fe shops report-
ed last nl^ht that 75 percent of the
men had subscribed and that by
noon today 100 percent will have
been subscribed Other departments
of the Santa Fe also reported good
results.
France. Generally the trained work-
ers of former loans had enlisted for
the last effort.
Many Quotas Subscribed.
Long before closing hours tonight
telegrams arriving at the treasury
told the story of enthusiastic com-
munities which had subscribed their
full quotas the first day.
There were about twenty places re-
porting oversubscriptions.
The treasury had n0 report as yet
on the achievement of Iietroit. report-
ed to he the first large city to over-
subscribe its quota.
'Early Indications.'' said a treas-
ury review of the loan campaign,"
were that the Victory notes were re-
ceiving general distribution and not
being bought up largely by banking
institutions. Several telegrams from
different sections of the country call-
ed particular attention to this fea-
ture of the campaign."
Many cities and counties In the
Kansas City district also reached
their Quotas today, some of them us-
ing the volunteer subscription meth-
od exclusively.
Three counties In the Atlanta dis-
trict, Cullman county, Ala., I>oudon
county, Tenn., nnd Bradley county,
Tenn., reported their quotas exceeded
a few minutes after the campaign
opened.
First County Over.
Bartholomew county, Ind., claim-
ed the honor of being the first
county to obtain Its quota, without a
bond being purchased by a bank
or a subscription solicited. The
county bought Its quota at sunrise
today, subscriptions being made at
voting booths and harks.
The Fnited States steamship Mar-
blehead, one of the three destroyers
which will tell the story of the Vic-
tory Liberty Loan to the entire coun-
try by a voyage from San Francisco

four and one half billion dollar
journey. The Rpeed of her engines
will be determined by the nation's
daily subscription to tho Victory Loan.

When apparently the council of four was ready to take de-
cisive action on the Italian claims in the Adriatic, including the
coast, islands and Flume, the Italian delegates, Premier Or-
lando and Foreign M*nistnr Sonnino, failed to appear at Mon-
day afternoon's session. These ministers had discussed the
problem insistently with Premier Olenienceau and Premier
Lloyd George early in the day for the purpose of bringing the
matter to a climax. President Wilson attended the afternoon
session.
It was then expected that the question, which up to that time,
was considered almost insurmountable, would be decided, but,
owing to the absence of the Italian delegates, discussion of the
Italian claims was dispensed with. It is announced that the
council will take no further action on the subject pending in-
formation as to the future course of the Italians.
Paris, April 21.—The question of the Italian claims was not
disposed of at the meeting of th? council of four Ibis afternoon.
The council was unable to agree on the Adriatic question
and decided to proceed to other business. It. was hoped that the
issue between the Italians and the Jugo-Slavs on the subject
of the Adriatic coast and Flume would be settled at the after-
noon session at the "White House" but, contrary to expecta-
tion, neither Premier Orlando, nor Foreign Minister Sonnino
appeared. For this reason the question could not be taken up
Pending receipt of information as to the course of the Italian
delegates in desiring to continue the negotiations, the council
will take no further action on the subject. No statement re-
garding the Adriatic issue has appeared and it was said that
none would be issued today. At the Italian headquarters it
was said that Premier Orlando had not left for Rome, and that
he could not go until he could take with him a definite decision
on the Italian cluim.
Paris, April 21.—President Wilson resumed his place in the
council of four this afternoon during the resumption of the
hearing of the Italian claims. It was understood that it was
his purpose to issue a public statement later unless an accord
was reached. The second meeting of the council was held at
4 o'clock. There was manift st tension in all quarters over the
acuteness of the issues.
The president's visit to American headquarters at noon
lasted about an hour. It was made clear that the situation was
serious and that the president's determination was irrevocably

San Antonio, Tex., April 21—Two
hundred Texas overseas soldiers re-
covering from wounds and illness In
the base hospital here expressed their
disapproval of Gov. William P. Hob-
by's vetoing the bill to allow soldiers
to vote by threatening not to ride In
a parade with him today. They had
been Invited to participate In the San
Jacinto day parade as a demonstra-
tion for the Victory Loan, but the
leaders protested against riding with
'a governor who took the soldiers'
vote away." When appealed to re-
consider on patriotic grounds, the men
agreed to take part In the parade.
Arrangements had been made to
have the soldiers ride in a San Ja
cinto day parade and to carry ban-
ners advertising tha Victory Loan.
When S. Arthur Shaw, director of Bed
Cross activities at the base hospital,
Saturday, asked the men to ride, they
flatly refused, their spokesman saying
they "would not ride In the parade
with a governor who took the sol-
diers' vote away." Sunday night an
Easter cantata was given at tho hos-
pital which was attended by all the
wounded men. Mr. Shaw made a
second appeal to them, putting it be-
fore them as a patriotic duty to ride
in the parade and help the Vletory
Loan. "The Issue is broader th in any
state political quarrel and you should
continue to do your duty to your coun-
try in spite of any Texas governor."
The phrase "in spite of any Texas
governor" caught the fancy of the
soldiers and using that as their slogan,
200 promised to ride in the parade.
They carried Victory i»<Hit6rs

Germany's Intention to send a small

the text of tho treaty, the plan Is
really old. nnd Berlin njid Weimar
dispatches of the Associated Press
more than a month ago Indicated
that the German delegates would
mil have power to make final de-
cisions.
The determination of the German
foreign office was based on misap-
prehension of th« programme for
(he Initial meeting of the German
plenipotentiaries with the represen-
tatives of the peace conference. It
had been understood through press
statements that at the first meeting
the German delegates would mere-
ly be handed the text of the treaty,
liut would not be permitted to dis-
cuss Its terms, and would be sent
back to Germany to confer with
the government and the national as-
sembly, returning after a stipulated
Interval fur the actual discussions.
Situation Is Explained.
Under the circumstances, as Count
von Brockdurff Kanl7.au, foreign min-
ister, explained to The Associated
Press, the German government con-
sidered It unnecessary to send the
entire peace delegation more than
100 persons, headed by six plenipo-
tentiaries to Versailles merely to re-
ceive the draft and return to Berlin
with It and would therefore, send a
smaller delegation and later proceed
to Versailles for the actual discussions
and the signature of the treaty.
The government then formally In-
quired through the armistice commis-
sion regarding the program, and on
the basis of the reply seemingly de-
termined on the dispatch of the small-
er delegation.
Paris, April 21 Grave doubts were Meanwhile, however, the plans and
expressed today whether tho perfected I program of the council of four for (Ms-
peace treaty would be presented to J

take tip the question of making the
document public. Ray Stannard Mak-
er. representing the American dele-
gation, in agreement with the press
advisers to the delegations of other

council the publication of the treaty
immediately after its delivery to Ihe

The plan proposed on behalf of
the United States is for the Ameri-
can delegates to cable for simultane-
ous distribution of the American
continent, first a 250 word official
summary, and third, the text of
treaty. The two summaries would
be given to the American press
about the same time and the treat)
a day or two later, the text .possibly
to be distributed by installments as
it was received.
The text of the covenant of the
league of nations has already been
telegraphed to the state t'epartment
at Washington for release when au-
thorized by President Wilson. Other
parts of the treaty ar» likely to bo
cabled during the present week.
The final dispatch, which may count
up to nearly 100.090 words, can be
cabled in four or five hours if a"
the cable lines are cleared for s
purpose.
