Report of Committee.
To the President they will read the
which states. in part:
1.-The cost of taking the products of the
farm to the consumers Is unnecessarily
| large and the methods employed are
wasteful. The government should estab-
lish an effective agency for the study of
| the problems of marketing and for the
distribution of information as to condi-
tons and needs and rational methods of
meeting these needs.
'"fhe state governments. in similar
manner. SnOuiQ take up the study OF
more economic and efficient systems of
| marketing. The universities. agricultural
colleges newspapers and organizations
for the promotion of economic welfare
both in the city and country, should give
the question their immediate attention"
1t is the opinion of the conference that
national and state governments and
other agencies mentioned should give i'm
| mediate consideration to the provision
/ of adequate means to which farmers may
| secure loans under favorable conditions.
I'VE favor organized cooperation both
| of consumers and producers, under
proper supervision, to promote efficient
distribution, economical marketing and
| reduce expenses between producers and
consumers; also organized co-ope ration
properly supervised, for securing more
advantageous systems of rural credit.

upon industrial conditions. One of the
best known of these is Miss Marie l.

published reports upon wage-earning
women in stores and factories which are
of great sociological value, because of
the detailed information they give re-
Sardin;; all the conditions of these classes
of woman workers. Their wages, their
living conditions, social environment and
possibilities are all depicted in so vivid
a manner as to have great influence in
determining the needs to be relieved.
Miss Obenhauer also has published re-
ports upon the conditions governing child
labor in several states and number of
specified industries. She has several as
sistants. all bright, young college women,

them for their work.
