President Says Speculators Are
Driving Down Prices
of Farmers.
DEMANDS THEY CEASE
Says Limited Number' of Men
Lack Patriotism, Want
Quick Profit.
WASHINGTON, July 11.-(P)-
President Hoover has again recog-
nized the plight of wheat growers,
this time charging speculators sell-
ing short with driving down prices
and depriving farmers of their just
profits.
With wheat at the lowest levels
in thirty years and a heavy move-
ment of the new crop under way,
he called upon them to cease their
activities until the markets have
been revived.
His denunciation Friday was ad-
dressed to a "limited number of
speculators" and was not intended
to refer to legitimate traders.
Asked Clear Definition.
"If these gentlemen," he said,
"have that sense of patriotism
which outruns immediate profit,
and a desire to see the country re-
cover, they will close up these trans-
actions and desist from their man-
i pulations."'
Two weeks ago Mr. Hoover, in
response to widespread demands
that the farm board hold the 200,-
000,000 or more bushels of stabili-
zation wheat off domestic markets
in an effort to bolster prices, sug-
gested to the board that "in view
of the unusual conditions growing
out of the depression" it define its
sales policy more clearly.
Names Withheld.
Vice President Curtis, Senator
Capper of Kansas and Senator
Watson of Indiana, Republicans,
have sought to impress upon the
president the need for relief to
farmers, who have witnessed de-
clining prices for more than a year.
Farm organizations, civic clubs and
individuals have joined them.
Mr. Hoover expressed regret he
could not under the law expose the
names of the short sellers. With-
e rhasis, he added:
"If I could, I would gladly do so.'
The president's statement was in-
dorsed by Carl Williams, farm
board member, who advocated a-
endment of the grain futures act.
Huber Will Address

Dean G. Carl Huber of the Grad-
uate school will speak this evening
at. the first of the open air series

beth Fagg. A feature of the ser-

Department of Agriculture Sees
Slight Decrease in
Other Foods.
WASHINGTON, July 11.-(A')-
The nation's corn and wheat bins
will be filled to overflowing next
fall-if the weather holds good.
The agriculture department Fri-
day forecast bumper crop yields of
these crops, but saw a rather mod-
erate production for other farm
products. Drought, heat and slight
acreage reductions are responsible.
The 1931 corn crop was estimated
at 2,976,953,000 bushels as com-
pared with 2,094,000,000 last year
when the drought took heavy toll.
The five-year average is 2,761,000-
000 bushels.
Wheat farmers, already stagger-
ing under the burden of overpro-
duction and low prices, will pro-
duce an estimated crop of 869,013,-
000 bushels. In 1931 the produc-
tion was 863,430,000 bushels.

Miss Inez V. Bozorth, director of
Mosher-Jordan Halls, leaves today
for her summer vacation, which she
will spend at Twin Rocks, Oregon,
after a visit at her home in Ore-
gon. She has planned a motor trip
with her father and sisters through
Oregon and Washington, on which
she will visit Ranier National Park.
Miss Bozorth plans to return to the
dormitory about the middle of Aug-
ust.

Harry Kipke's position as football
coach this year will be not unlike
that of the old woman in the shoe,
particularly when it comes to wing
men. Kipke will be hard put to
find places for Bill Hewitt, Ivan
Williamson, Norman Daniels, Stan
Hozer, Roddy Cox, Russell Damm
and Sylvester Shea, not to mention
Ted Petoskey, Francis Wistert and
others coming up from the fresh-
man teams.
Hewitt it will be remembered,
broke a small bone in his foot
against Michigan State last fall, and
was out for the season. His foot
is as good as ever now, and he nev-
was in better shape to cut down
opposing backs. Daniels, out with
a tackle shoulder, much of last sea-
son after taking the pass and scor-
ing the touchdown against Purdue
that gave Michigan its season's life,
is only in fair condition now. He
suffered several pulled tendons in
his knee in the final Conference
game of the baseball sason and is
still limping.
Williamson is in perfect shape
and ready to renew the brilliant
pace he set last season. He is be-
yond question a real find. Hozer,
sort of a football himself in the
matter of placement, will be on
hand again, and may be shifted to
another position. Started as a full-
back in 1928, he went to guard and
then to end in 1930 and demon-
strated that he had the stuff for
both positions. He has plenty of
weight and may return to guard
this year. Cox, also a fullback early

last season, and used at end egainst
Purdue and Ohio State, is in good
shape to renew his quest for a reg-
ular position. He also was the vic-
tim of injuries last year.
