HOOVER STUDIES PLAN TO AIO IN MOVING WHEAT Grain Congests Gulf Ports, Farm Board May Take Up Problem. Bk United Pree* WASHINGTON, July 11.— Following a second White House conference today on congestion of wheat at gulf ports, President Herbert Hoover took under consideration a project to launch the new federal farm board on the grain movement at its first meeting here next Monday. There were indications that the emergency marketing powers of the board would be invoked at once to relieve the present wheat glut at the gulf ports. Representative C. S. Briggs (Dem., Tex.,) told Hoover there are not sufficient ships available at southern and southwestern ports to care for the flood of grain now pouring in from the grain belt. This movement has been stimulated by recent emergency freight rate reductions calculated to clear middle western elevators of carryover grain. Predict Enormous Crop “The enormous crop of wheat raised this year,” said a memorandum left with the President by Briggs, “added to approximately 250.000,000 bushels of the carry-over crop, will probably aggregate not less than 1,100,000,000 bushels. “Probably of this vast amount 530,000,000 bushels can be estimated conservatively as exportable surplus, or as surplus in excess of domestic requirements.’” Briggs' visit t othe executive offices followed White House announcement that President Hoover would devote his week-end in his Shenandoah National Park fishing preserve in preparation for the first meeeting of the new farm board. Meet Monday Chairman Alexander Legge, vicechairman J. C. Stone, and Carl Williams, a third member of the board will accompany the President to the week-end haven Thursday. They will return Sunday afternoon and the farm board will assemble at the White House for its first meeting Monday morning. , It was learned today that President Hoover has given the grain siutation clcae attention for the last ten days. Wednesday he conferred with Chairman T. V. O’Connor of the shipping board and Senator Tom Connally of Texas, on the gulf ports glut.

For he tasted the elixir of public interest, more tangibly soothed his chops with choice steaks, and yowled gleefully as two masters wrangled for possession of him, only to land ignominiously in a city prison cell “in solitary” and masticate a tasteless prepared substitute for bones. His value, which Irving Howard, member of a vaudeville troupe that owned the dog placed at SIOO,OOO because he wanted to insure interest of police in a search for the vagabound, slumped Tuesday to SI,OOO. and then, today, Howard left for New York City and said: “Keep the dog.
