days"

CONVENTION OF NATIONAL ASSO.
CATION WILL OPEN IN PO-
CATELLO, IDAHO.
MANY VITAL DISCUSSIONS
Proposed Storage Warehouse Scheme
Promises to Be Principal Subject at
lssue-Governmen Regulations Re-
garding Grazing Upon Forest Re-
serves May Be, Severely Attacked.

Pocatello, Idaho, Jan. 13.-Questions
of great concern to the sheep raisers
of the United States, and especially
of the western range states, will arise
at the three days convention of the
National Woolgrowers' association
which will begin here at 2 o'clock to-
morrow afternoon. The storage ware
house plan, which is, in brief, to
place the bulk of the wool crop in
the hands of a cooperative selling
agency to hold for what is considered
a fair price, meanwhile borrowing
money on the stored product. will be
the principal subject at issue. A COM
mittee has been busy for several
months securing pledges of wool and
arrangements have been made to lease
warehouse in Chicago or some other
center as soon as the required 25,000,-
900 pounds of wool Is guaranteed. 1t
is not thought that much opposition
will develop, but the details of the
plan may be criticized and it's feasi-
bility questioned. Omaha, Boston,
st. Louis and Kansas City will con-
test for the warehouse.
Pinchot Declines.
Government regulations in relation
to grazing on forest reserves will un-
doubtedly be attacked. 1t was the
known attitude of the association on
this point that prompted Chief For
ester Clifford Pinchot to decline an IN
vitation to the meeting in sharp
note, which further strained the re-
lations between the forestry depart
ment and the woolmen. In his letter
Mr.. Pinchot advised the secretary of
the association that he did not care
to attend the convention until it
should show by it's action that it was
prepared to view the grazing question
in a more liberal spirit.
While all the delegates will be in ia
vor of a tariff on wool, there may be
a debate as to whether the present
duty is sufficient. Utah woolgrowers,
and perhaps others, have adopted
resolutions asking that the present
duty be increased. In other quarters
the prevailing tariff is regarded as
ample for the needs of the industry.
At the opening session of the conven-
ton addresses of welcome will be de-
livered by Governor Brady and Mayor
Loux of Pocatello. Fred w. Gooding,
president of the association, will make
his annual address. The program of
the meeting covers a wide range of
topics and the speakers will include
irrigation experts, government experts,
buyers and manufacturers of wool and
others having directly to do with
wool growing.
