problems before producers are dis
criminatory freight rates, decreas
ing consumption of wheat as food,
uncertain export markets and the
need for developing better varieties
of wheat.
If growers, dealers, millers and
others Interested In the wheat prob

steps toward solution of the prob
lems could be taken, he said. Bell
estimated the annual budget of
audi a council at $300,000.
