Outlawing of all trading la grain future waa the demand today of the congressional farm block as the department of agriculture continued Ua investigation of the recent sonaatlonal "raid" of the Chicago wheat market, to And some way to prosecute-speculators under the grain futures act. farm bloe members heartily endorsed this move, but instated that the administration formulate legislation prohibiting all grain gambling.

They urged that thla action be taken In the nest serf-ion of congress. Senators Term It Robbery. Westerns senators. Beaded by Nor- rls. Republican of Nebraska, and Republican, ot North Dakota, declared the lent "clean up" had created an "unendurable situation." Profits on future trading In grains, they charged, amounted to a robbery of the consuming public.

"To gamble In the price of food Is worse than robbery," said Norrls. "Thousands of people starve, because of the high price ot food, while a handful of men acquire their Ill-gotten gains. Congress has, tried to prevent this gambling, government officials have condemned It and the people, protest against It It Is time tor the administration to act. "This gambling Is done by millionaire mlddlomen. Every dollar they make comes either from the consumer, or tho farmer and usually from both.

I am ready to act wl(h the de- Psrtmcnt of agriculture at any time In enacting a law to prohibit all gam bling In foodstuff. Norrls said he thought the government might be able to punish grain csmblers under the present law. but added "the damage is already done." Senator I.ald. a leader In the farm bloc movement, shared Norrls' opinion. "The time has come when all grain gambling should be abolished by law," said Ladd.

"I believe this action should be taken at the next session of congress, so as -to prevent the kind ot gambling In farm crops such as has taken place this year. Grain speculation Is an absolute robbery of the people and should be drlvn out ot American life." 54TH COMMENCEMENT I), OFI, STARTS JUNE 12 Urbane, May 14.
