Washington, March 3.-One of the inportant bills which has been under discussion here for several (lays was that enabling the president to carry out the price guarantee made to pro ducers of wheat and protect the Unit ed States against undue enhancement of its liabilities. South Carolinians will read with interest the folloewing rc marks made on this subject by Conl gressman Stevenson of Sothl Carolina: "I ai somewhat inl sympatlhy niilh the purpose of 11h0 gentleniI fr-.n Pennsylvania .\lr. .loore) in so far as Protection to the consumer is con cerned. I had an idea that lie was to he protected u1nder the licensing or s11pervising System proviled in tile bill; but I want to talk just a minute about, some of those kwho have not. had any protection, and I am a litile ciri oils to know'why they did not pit. some protection In the bi!) for the protee lion of some ilore: of the farmi1ers. "The statement has beeni ma de broadcast, an1d a great deal has been made out of it, that nobody's price was fixed except the wheat muan's price. u'le mis-statement amounts to tihis, that. nobody's price was fixed and guaranteed except the wheat man's; and I want to say to you that. there Is a large class of farmers the price of whose goods has 'been fixed but was not guaranteed, and they are tied up tight today and have lost over $100, 000,000. Take the matter of the cot ton seed of the farmers of the South a-bout 5,000,000 tons. It was selling at $83 a ton. They came along and said that they must fix the price of that to prevent exorbitant. charges, and they reduced the price to $69 a toin, imiak ing a deduction at one lick from the market -price of $70,000,000. They fixed it at that and let it run along for a while, until some of the middlemen and some of the farmers had considerable stocks of seed oil hani which they had obtained at the price fixed by the gov ernmiient, and then they rediied it an other dollar a toll. 'T'lhey did not. guar aitee that anybody could sell it. at that. That took $5,00110000 more. Then they took the linters and reduced the price 3 cents a poind- -the linters thalt were to he takeni by the government for the manufacture of expflosives. 11.1 that reduction t hey caused the farmi el-s of the Soith a loss of $ 21,000,000, l'it they made no guaranty about tak. Ing eare of the loss that we sustalined there. They went ahead then, and, as soonl as the arinilist iee is signed they enneel all of the contracts for lint - anid render thiem lifeless, so that the farim ers can get only1 a enu t a poiuind for them now. That Cost its ano114t1r niggardly $1G,0010,0100 s a result11 o' price fixing witliit a gilarait3y at tached.
