The refusal of Argentina to accept Icju than 160.000,000 bushels, coupled with a favorable world wheat situa tion because of the drouth led the con fere mo to abandon a plan for 'stabllnhing annu! quotas during this session.

('. lltinter (Pacific Northwest Correspondent) WASHINGTON m Lumbermen, especially some from the Pacific coastal area, are reporting that tho new cost-protection prices under the lumber code do not protect. There have been reports here that some mills will be forced to close down un less business conditions improve and bring an upturn In lumber prices. Wliile the con -protect ion prices as outlined iinder tho code were de signed to bo the minimum, prices, under present conditions they aro the maximum in practically all cases. With a buyer's market, hope has been expressed, however, that prices will climb. It is hoped the housing pro rara will create such a demand that tho prices can be boosted, at least on a majority of items. Although some lumbermen had been skeptical of the benefits of the housing program becau.'G of Its de pendence on the willingness to lend and the willingness to borrow, the attitude of lending agencies in appar ently entering the program with en thusiasm, has created an optimistic outlook among lumbermen generally. iney now say there is a possibility of the modernization and repair pro gram in the housing act leading to a general increase of business enter prise involving credit. This outlook has displaced the skepticism, or even synlcnllsm, with which some members of the industry viewed the program. It was pointed out the country Is full of money, but there have been no lenders and no borrowers to any appreciable extent. The .surplus re serves in this country now total about $2,000,000,000, they aay, the largest in tho history of the United States or any other country. It 'Is the tapping of these reserves to open credit channels which Is 'expected to start business rolling easily. But tho lumbermen are not alone in looking to such a move for aid. Reports around the capital say ad ministration circles are hoping for credit inflation, which some prefer to call, reflation, to forestall demands of congressional inflation groups. It is pointed out that if this program produces results In that direction the administration will be spared the trials of fighting or yielding to infla tion enthusiasts. New Treatment For Hernia Is , 96 Pet. Success CHrCAOO W) Tho "Injection" treatment for hernia was described here before the American association of Railway Surgeons as offering a strong possibility for definite and per manent cure. The statement was made by Dr. Lawrence J. Qulllen of Chicago, dis trict ' surgeon for the Illinois Central railroad. The method consists of the Injec tion of one of several different Irrit ant solutions under tho skin around the hernia, which is n separation, due to excessive strain, of the muscles composing the abdominal wall. The drugs irrltato the separate edges of tho muscles and yause adhesions which close the opening. Recurrences totaled less than four per cent in Dr. Qulllen's cases, he said, while it was not necessary for the patients to stop work while un der treatment.
