MAN WHO HEADS THE NEW U. S.
$50,000,000 GRAIN CORPORATION
Washington, D. C. — Julius H.
Barnes of Duluth, «elected by Presi
dent Wilson to head the $50.000.000
grain corporation organized under the
food administration, looks big enough
for the job.
He Is tall, broad-shouldered, ath
letic, and after watching him in action
a few minutes, listening to his or
ders. seeing the dispatch with which
he handles big problems as well a« iit
tie and his keen understanding, one
gains the impression that he is fitted
mentally, temperamentally and by
training, no less than physically.
Barnes has grown up in the grain
trade. Jle developed his own con
cern Barnes-Ames Co., of Duluth.
Winnipeg and New Vork—until it was
the largest wheat exporting firm in the
world.
Following the declaration of war,
however, his firm withdrew' from busi
ness for the period of the war and
Barnes volunteered his service« to the
government. He was placed In an ad
visory position with Hoover in the
food administration, pending passage
of the food control bill, and is now at
the head of the corporation upon
which the real work of stabilizing
prices and distribution of wheat and
flour will rest.
Next to business. Barnes' chief in
