(AP) Sec retary of Agriculture Arthur M. Hyde aald today that the present business and Industrial condition was the di rect result of the agricultural de pression of the past 10 years. The secretary was a speaker at the eighth conference of major Indus tries, held at Columbia university. "There la no longer any debate as to the, cause of the agricultural col lapse." said Secretary Hyde. "There are many contriDutory causes, but the one cause which stands out above all la overproduction. One year of overproduction is not In ltslef fetal but ten years Is more than any In. Industry can stand." Science' Needed The principal factor In agricultur al over-production la the uneconomic use of land, Secretary Hyde said. "The present policy of unplanned agriculture must be replaced by a policy of sclentlflo utilization of our land, providing for Its protection against erosion and limiting our ag ricultural plant to such size aa will supply our national needs without the blight of over-production," he said. "What agriculture now needs la not more wheat lands but more for ests, more game preserves, more air ports, more and larger golf courses. and more city farmers with larger cstatos and smaller production. "Ours haa been a policy not of land use but of land exploitation. We have proceeded on the theory, never seriously questioned, that what we needed was to bring more land Into cultivation."

Such a corporation, he aald, should negotiate with the governmente In volved to bring about complete sup pression of customs barriera, since they have no motor car Industry to protect. .
