CHANGERS SAY THE
FARMER is BUNCOED

Spokane, Nov. 15.-The National
Conference of Progressive states, the
so-called insurgent faction of the ma
tional grange at its first session held
yesterday discussed importuning the
grange through formal resolutions to
repeal the rule adopted at the con-
vention a year ago which permits the
trial and expulsion of members of
subordinate lodges and also to adopt
n new method of presentation.
Many of the state representatives
took issue with the tendency to blame
the farmer for the high cost of liv-
ing The tenor of the reports was
that the farmer gets but small pro-
fit on his investment and usually gets
only from 80 to 40 per cent of what
the consumer pays. Cooperation be-
tween the producer and consumer was
pointed out as the remedy which
would result in eliminating the eX-
cessive profits that go to middlemen.
