Criticism of the farm board was general, with many leaders Hamlug this government organization , for the low prices. They believed. they said, that if the board would 1 hlter its stand and agree positively to hold its surplus of more than ’ 200,000.000 bushels of old wheat, until the new crop is sold, prices 1 would rise at once. The Kansas City Journal-Post, which has waged a bitter fight on ’ the board, said it had learned from i two Kansas City mill operators that they had bought wheat from ' the board at a price similar to i that laving paid for new wheat, i Senator George McGill. Kansas • Democrat, said: i “If the farm hoard does act, it ■ wll do so after it is too late, Just > as it did a year ago, when it pegged the price after threefourths of the wheat was in the hands of traders.” Others asserted that the f;fhn Ixianl had taken a proper stand, i They emphasized that the board pleaded with the farmers to reduce their acreage and that the farmers answered by producing the biggest . crop in history. 1 A) agree that if action Is taken to relieve the situation it must 1 come at once.

With a price of this level, It Is feared hundreds of men may see their farms taken from them by Ihe mortgage-hobler even as they reap thejj greatest crop. Above the buzz and hum of the j discussion rises the roar of flies | tractor and the combine. Kansas is harvesting more than 200.000,000 bushels, a record crop for all time. Oklahoma, Texas. Missouri, and! Nebraska are reaping great yields. | Wagons and trucks rolled in unbroken lines to the elevators. Farmers pocketed their returns in | bewilderment and bitterness. Pani * c - ® s predicted by Governor Harry j Woodring of Kansas before the j harvest opened, “reigned in the I j midst of plenty.” One man there was who, dis ! j gusted, rejected the price quoted him, turned his truck away front i the elevator, loosened the tailj hoard and drove dawn the streets ! of » Kansas town, scattering his | grain upon the pavement. _ FALL APPEALS TO PRESIDENT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) opposition to clemency.

MIRACLE OF VIRGIN SOLVED I (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) peared mightly for the-last several ! nights. \ Superstitious citizens learned of it, swarmed into Dr. Stoll’s yard, ruined his flower bed, tore down his fence and climbed up on his garage in such numbers that the roof caved in. “Terrible, terribe it was.” lamented the gray-haired doctor in telling the United Press of hi&_ troubles. I "I told ’em it was all a crazy humbug or something, but 1 couldn't stop ’em. Neither could the police. "They just trampled into my yard, broke into my house, sat on my back step and watched that silly light on the wall.” And still came the curious, even the halt and the lame, so thick that they blocked traffic on the boulevard, so anxious to see the image that they almost rioted when police tried to hold them back. A dozen small boys, perched per j ilously on a high fence, pelted the I I rowds with pebbles. That didn't ; help the situation any. Neither did | a leather lunged hawker who set up a stand under Dr. Stoll's parlor jwindow and howled: j "Get your near-beer folks, get year near-beer before you sed the 'miracle. Its hot back in that there alley.” So it was. Half a dozen women j tainted in the stifling air under the flickering shadow of the fence before the night was over. Even before the location of the offending curtain in gangster Genna’s window, while the devout look-' ed soberly, the image caused the j skeptical to think cf the man in the moon, something that you see or that you don't see, according to how imatinative you happen Vo he. To thfs correspondnt it looked like a blur of dim gray light. Hut to a middle-aged woman of the ! Mexican quarter who crossed herself devoutly while so saying it was: "The Holy Virgin Mary, Madre de Dios, senor, the Holy Virgin Mary." To a policeman, who said that he ! hardly ever missed going to church jon Sunday, the image was: "Sorta funny, sort* makes yon | feel kind of queer and makes you want to pray or something.” Then, while everyone was standing prayerful, boisterous, in awe, or derisive, as the ease'may have been, Police Lieut, ojseph Pieroth stalked into the Oenna flat, brush ed Sam aside and pulled down a shade, thereby causin ga curtain to 'fall on the miracle. .i “The street light shined on the curetain. explained the technically minded lieutenant, "and the curtain reflected the light dimly on the I

fence across the street. And now all you people, you go home to bed or I'll run you in." 50,000 Chinese Start Trek To Manchuria Peiping, —(UP)—More than 50,000 Chinese settlers, most of them Irotn Shantung and Honan rovinces have arrived, or are on their way to take up virgin land in North Manchuria, according to reports.
