once the ho'ie and of late the dread
of the farmer, became his ambition
tgain Monday as a flood of selling
swept grain prices to record low
1 vels.
May wheat was submerged to DSrs
ents on the Chicago hoard of trade,
drop of 2 r,t cents from Saturday's
losing price and the lowest price
for Mav delivery since Sentemhi r.
inie, when a sale at outs v a-
recorded. Six vears aea cash wheat
old at !M" cents in July.
Wheat Monday was for sab' at
pricas a( cents a bushel less than
a year ago and more than X11 cents
under the beak .of the stason in
February. Since then, wheat has
been on the tobogan, the skids
greased by an immovable surplus
f the commodity left over from
last year's enormous North Amer
ican crop.
C?r-ada Meets Price
That surplus still is the prime
factor in the glutted market, every
price reduction and freignt rate cut
here has be"n met by competing
prices in Canada and the Argentine,
and prevailing estimates Monday
held that 330.000. 00ft bushels would
be carried over at the end of this
crop year, throughout the world.
The immediate factor Monday was
the weakness of the Liverpool grain
market and a contributing cruise was
rain in the Canadian wheat belt, in
suring a favorable start of the spring
heat crop. Already the harvest is
under way in the American south
west, beginning new competition
with the old crop in storage.
FLIGHT AGAIN DELAYED
Old Orchard. Me. Cross winds
and rain toward mid-Atlantic Mon
day caused another day's delay in
the proposed flight of the Green Flash"
to Rome. Lewis A. Yancey, navi
gator of the plane, said that no at
tempt would lie made to take off
Tuesday.
It was not believed that the French
plane. Yellow Bird, would start, but
final decision rested with Armeno
Lotti. sponsor of the flight to Paris,
who flew to New York on Monday to
better observe weather reports.
No work was done on either of the
large monoplanes, the Green Flash
remained in the hangar and the Yel
low Bird rested on the sands out

Dallas, Texas, Scene of Gathering of
Eotarians Dr. J. S. Liv
ingston Attends.
Dallas, Texas, May 27. Bearing a
message of international friendship
and goodwill from communities all
over the world, the representatives
of more than 3,000 Rotary clubs
which have been organized in 4S
countries were gathered in Dallas to
today. As business and professional
men representative of their cities,
they have come to exchange their
ideas and experiences in the daily
conferences from which the coming
year's program of service will emrge
to be carried back into all corners
of the world. The first of these as
semblies, Tuesday afternoon, will
present one of the most novel series
of international craft conventions
ever seen. A hundred groups of
delegates, divided according to their .
daily vocations, will meet tomorrow !
to discuss the improvement of rela- '
tions between employer and em-1
ployee, between buyer and seller, and
between competitors and the desir-'.
ability of international associations
of merchants and professional men
of various lines. As conveners of
these craft assemblies, the Dallas Ro- j
tarians will in most cases entertain
these informal gatherings in their
own places of business. j
These assemblies follow the formal j
opening of the convention Tuesday ;
morning by I. B. Sutton, of Tampico, j
Mexico, international president,,
whose presidential message will ie-;
view the activities of the past year
and point to some of the problems 1
confronting the Rotary leaders of the j
next administration and whose selec-
lion will be announced rnday morn
ing, after the convention ballots are
counted.
Most of the thousands of visitors
nad arrived by Monday evening, in !
time for the first of a series of splen
did entertainments. Governor Dan
Moody of Texas and Mayor J. Waddy
Tate of Dallas extended a'n official
welcome to the Rotarians gathered in
the Fair Park Stadium. President
Sutton responded briefly and the
"Procession of Flags" of each of the
4S countries in which there are Ro
tary clubs wended its colorful way
imo the stadium, to the music of the
national anthems from a concert
band. The president of the Dallas
Rotary club, Norman R. Crozier, who
is superintendent of schools, invited
five hundred high school girls to
form the cast of this pageant of pat
riotism. Each flag was escorted by
nine young ladies, costumed in the
typical dress of the country repre
sented by the flag they carried. "When
all were gathered in the stadium
around a great Rotary wheel, they
formed a vivid picture of the spirit of
international understanding which
Rotarians ndeavor to foster for the
advancement of world peace. At
various times in its picturesque his
tory, Gove rnor Moody said, the state
of Texas had been under six flags
Spanish, French, Mexican, and the
flags of the Texas Republic, of tho
Southern Confederacy and the Unit
ed States of America.
Now, he said, the Texans are hosts
to thousands whose allegiance is di
vided among 4S flags, but who share
common aspirations for the establish
ment of world wide friendship and
peace.
This pageant brought together for !
the first time the delegates and visi
tors to the twentieth annual con-1
vention of Rotary International. This
afternoon the voting delegates met I
to discuss proposed resolutions, while
many of the others entertained by
the presentation of "Rotary School"
by the Rotary Club of Nashville, J
Tennessee. Among the dozen or more
resolutions debated today, which will
be voted on Thursday, was one pro
posed by the Rotary clubs of Great
Britain and Ireland to discontinue
use of that part of the Rotary motto
which declares "He Profits Most Who
Serves Best" because they feel it in
jects a motive of profit in the "Ser
vice Above Self" which should be
entirely unselfish.
Another resolution proposed would
establish the convention custom of
the past decade as a regular rule,
requiring every third or fourth con
vention to be held in the United
States. Annual conventions have
been held in Edinburgh, Scotland;
Toronto, Canada, and Ostend, Bel
gium, in the past ten years. The 1930
convention will be held in Chicago,
to celebrat- the silver Jubilee of the
organization, but the 1931 conven
tion would be held outside North
America if this resolution is adopted.
The Wichita party landed at Love
Field, Dallas' airport, today in a fleet
of airplanes to advertise the import
ance of their city as an airplane
manufacturing center. The Schnec
tady delegation also came by plane.
Special trains kept rolling in all
day, and many of them will con
tinue south and west after the con
vention, on visits to Mexico and the
Pacific coast, andw estern national
parks. Sections of the New England,
New York and other eastern parties
have made plans for extensive tours
of Mexico, and these proposed visits
have drawn to Dallas an unusual
number of Rotarians from Mexico
who will accompany their guests
across the Rio Grande next Friday
night. The European delegation,
which arrived Sunday, spent its
"touring time

Lincoln, May 27. A comparative
increase in the tax assessment upon

pamphlet just completed by f). C.
