OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., Sept. 20.
Wheat Is being- fed to livestock as a
substitute for corn In many counties of
Northwestern Oklahoma and pending
Governmental action, very ltttls addi
tional wheat -will be marketed from
these counties at the price fixed by the
food administration, according to a.
statement tonight by the Stats Hoard
f Agriculture.
The action bf the farmers is du to
a number of causes, chief of which is
the scarcity of corn for feeding pur
pose a, coupled with the fact that the
farmer feels the Government has placed
an arbitrary price upon his product at
a time when the law of supply and de
mand is in his favor, without at the
same time fixing the prices of other
articles for his consumption, the state
ment says.
Cora Prices Higher.
"First hand information of wheat be
Insr fed to stock in Blaine and Woods
counties has been received at this of
fice," the statement continues, "in
the form of reports from county
agents. Very little corn has been
raised in Northwestern Oklahoma with
one county reporting a 3 per cent crop.
"With corn worth $2.25 a bushel and
wheat bringing from $1.80 to $1.95 at
the elevator, the farmers are using
wheat for fattening hogs, their relative
food values being almost Identical.
"In Woods County farmers are feed
ing wheat as the cheapest food they
have. Little wheat will be sold until
the price Is raised, the county agents
report. The Government has not fixed
the price of corn.
"According to these reports, the
farmer who, be It understood, is as
loyal as any other citizen and as
anxious to help win the war, feels that
he is being deprived of a righteous
profit from his product while others
are allowed to exact 'war profits'
without Governmental interference."
Problem One for Hoover.
The situation was brought to the at
tention of J. M. Aydelotte, chairman of
the State Council of Defense.
"While there is an apparent fallacy,"
Mr. Aydelotte said, "in feeding hogs
wheat in Blaine County and holding
wheatless days' in Oklahoma City, 100
miles away, I see no chance of re
lieving the situation. That is a matter
clearly within Mr. Hoover's jurisdic
tion." '
While no reliable statistics are avail
able, agricultural authorities agree
that approximately 60 per cent, or
18.000.0u0 bushels of the 1917 wheat
ex op, remains on 'Oklahoma farms.

Before the conference report was ap

If there be a definite plan for extending

approved unless Congress waa satisfied'
there Is substantial reason, for the
loans.
"I am disturbed over these appro
priations of $21,000,000,000." said Sen
ator Weeks. "It seems that every mes
senger in Washington is hurrying to
the Capitol with requests for additional
appropriations. I have some curiosity
m to what is being done with, the

NORTHWEST WHEAT
HE SEE WILSON
President's Attitude Sympa
thetic and Growers Are
Encouraged.''
HOOVER WILL HEAR PLEA
Food Administrator to Be Told That
Western Farmers Will Be Sat
isfied if Price Is Made 15
Cents , Under Chicago.
OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Sept. 20. President Wilson
after listening for nearly halfr an hour
today to arguments presented by rep
resentatives of Northwestern wheat
growers, who are here asking that a
definite price be fixed on their wheat
at Portland and Seattle, admitted his
lack of knowledge of tha detail of
the wheat situation and asked the dele
gation to confer tomorrow avith Food
Administrator Hoover and repeat their
arguments to him.
At no time did the President com
mit himself on any of the issues raised,
but his questions and comments en
couraged the delegation tobelieve that
if they can convince Mr. Hoover of the
justice of their case, there will be
some relief coming from the White
House.
Colfax Banker I'meata Case.
C. I a. MacKenzie, president of the
Colfax (Wash.) National Bank, made
the main presentation of the wheat
growers case, after being introduced
by Senator Chamberlain. He went
over familiar arguments, pointing out
the fallacies of the contentions of Wr.
Hoover, aud Grain Administrator
Barnes and showing from the farmers
standpoint, how the wheat growers of
the Pacific Northwest are discriminated
aaainst under the Chicago price
schedule and differential recently an- !
nounced by the Government.
The farmers felt, he said, that their!
interests had been overlooked by the
price-fixing committee, on which the
Pacific Northwest was not represented,
and were not inclined o charge any
deliberate discrimination. Because of
this belief and their confidence that the
error would be corrected, and having
now no fixed wheat price, they were
not selling their wheat, but holding it
until they are given a standard price
for the Northwest, he said. .
-President Inslnger, of the Spokane1
Chamber of Commerce, supplementing
the statement of Mr. MacKenzie, said
the. farmers were not complaining of
the price fixed they will accept the
92.20 standard, but they do complain of
the differential now applied to' North
west wheat.
Under the standing order. Northwest
ern farmers get 30 -cents less than the
Chicago price, 30 cents being the freight
rate to Chicago. He pointed out that
the price-fixing board gave Minneapolis
a price 3 cents under the Chicago price,
although the freight rate, Minneapolis
to Chicago, is 6 cents.
Absorb Half Rate Is Plea.
If the Government will make the
same proportionate absorption on
Northwest wheat and quote at Port
land and Seattle a price only 15 cents
under the Chicago price, that is, absorb
half the freight rate, the farmers will
be entirely satisfied, he said.
Mr. Insinger also Impressed on the
President tbe abundance of ships en the
Pacifio Coast to move the 11,000,000
available bushels of export wheat to
Liverpool or other markets and said
the Shipping Board can absolutely fix
rates where it will.
At the outset of the hearing the
President seemed to be hostile, his
questions indicating a preconceived
idea that wheat men wanted the Chi
cago price at Portland and Seattle.
But as the attitude of the growers was
unfolded and the injustice of the dis
crimination against them laid bare his
attitude changed perceptibly. At one
juncture he suggested that the bottom
might drop out of the market if the
price were too high; that the allies
might prefer to buy from Argentina.
Brief Is lie fused.
As the wheatgrowers were depart
ing they offered to leave with the Pres
ident an elaborate typewritten brief
setting forth their contentions. The
President laughingly declined to re
ceive it, saying: "Gentlemen, I have
only 24 hours a day." However, he
asked the delegation to present their
case fully to Mr. Hoover, as he is fa
miliar with the details, and promptly
arranged a conference for them at the
food administration office tomorrow.
M. H. Houser, of Portland, and Julius
Barnes today telephoned Senator Mc
Nary from New York inquiring what
the wheatgrowers were doin- The
Senator urged them to come to Wash
ington at once to participate in the
conference before Mr. Hoover. Mr.
Hoover will be here tomorrow, and Mr.
Barnes, if delayed, will see the wheat
delegation Saturday. Mr. Hoover, af
ter hearing the arguments, will discuss
the Northwest situation with Messrs.
Houser and Barnes and then submit
a recommendation to the President. On
this the President is expected to act.
At the conference today were C. L.
MacKenzie, R. Insinger. C. E. Spence,
W. W. Harrah, C. F. Nelson, H. J. Ste
phens, S. C. Armstrong, A. V. Swift and
A. A. Elmore, and all the Senators and
Representatives from the three North
west states who were in Washington.
