POWERFUL LOBBIES
INEFFICIENT BUSINESSES
TIPTOE ROUND WASHINGTON
NEW YORK, May 13. The Secretary of Agriculture (Mr. H. A. Wallace), in a, speech at Athens (Georgia), in which he reviewed the collapse of the London wheat conference, said that he was exceedingly disappointed with the mechanism of tho Agriculture Adjustment Administration.
It would bo possible for the United States, he said, to meet with its surplus wheat any kind of competition that might bo established by other nations and at the same time aid cooperating growers to get comparative prices for the portion of the crop domestically consumed.
Mr. Wallace advocated a tariff bargaining policy which would protect the people as a whole against the small and inefficiently conducted businesses that maintained powerful lobbies which knew how to tiptoe around Washington.
