' , ( -' v 'Nebraska Milters' association con vened in the Chamber of Commerce at noon yesterday to discuss means of remedying yhat is said to be the most criticat situation in the hfstory of the milling business in this coun try. . Secretary Campbell of the associ ation made no effort to conceal the difficulties confronting the associa tion, which, he says, have forced mills in Nebraska to operate on half time during July and August, ordi narily capacity months in the milt mg business. Surplus Near Exhaustion. "Since July 1 we have, exporter 520,000,000 bushels of wheat and flour," said Secretary Campbell, "aid at this rate our exportable sur plus will be exhausted before the vear is half gone. "Millers must' secure a rcducation in'tbe minimum carload from 48.000 pounds to 'at les,st 40,000 pounHs. There must be some way of stabiliz ing the flour market so that' whole salers will not be afraid to buy. and the 25-cent differential rate against flour should be removed, for it sim ply protects foreign millers. Blame Wheat Exporters. Secretary Campbell openly charges that wheat exporters have persuaded domestic flour buyers to stay off the market by calling their atten tion to the great wheat crop this ar and advancing the theory that er prices will prevail. This, he has kept the nills idle, and the liniiers out ot trie wheat market. About 75 millers were present at the association meeting. Paul Jaeggi, president of the association, presided." Thone Browne, state rail way commissioner, spoke on the minimum carload situation. C. B.

Washington. Sept. 22. Addition al credit facilities . for the agricul tural interests of the country were u.ged before the federal reserve board by. a delegation representing a number of farm organizations. Spokesmen for the delegation de clared that the present credit policy oi the federal reserve 'system had reacted against farm interests and urged that greater emphasis be placed upon the need of financing agricultural products adequately. V7 P. G. Harding, governor of the federal reserve board, reiterated to the delegation what he has told uverai ouier groups, tnai . every possible consideration is being giv en "agriculture, but that it is not within the province of the federal reserv? board to give the banks spe cific instructions , as to just what .loans are to be made. Mr. Har ding indicated that there seemed to be no action that the board could take at this time. Iowa Coal Miners' Attitude Changes Acceptance of Wage Contract Expected as Result of John P. White's Advice. South" Side Des Moines, Sept. 22. Iowa coal miners are confidently expected to accept early Wednesday morning the wage contract agreed to by the joint wage scale committee several weeks ago. This action is predicted here with the utmost certainty, in asmuchas endugh Ivotes are already pledged to assure passage of an af firmative vote almost without oppo sition. The fey negatives votes will be cast by the delegates having irre vocable instructions from, the men thev represent. This afternoon's first vote reject ed the wage contract, 13a to 108. The chance in attitude following this vote was due largely to John P. White, representing the international organization. Up to the time of the first vote, White had-advised the delegates to refuse the agreement on the ground that it might still be posn sible to get more money tor tne ton nasre Haborers. But when White perceived, by the result of the first vote that the sentiment was divided, he changed his stand, realizing, it is said, that any further advance could be secured only if the menere united. After Mr.- hite s speecn the sentiment of the delegation chd-naed. .The second vote was left until to morrow morning, not because the of ficers were uncertain that their stand would have been ratified this afternoon, but because several of the delegates' desire to speak, and because by waiting until Wednes day it was thought that a sweeping macrity of votes in favor ofthe con tract could be secured.
