New York, Oct 1S-If you farmers
don't soon organize your national
products distribution organization
under governments charter. with CO.
operative state, county and township
unit bodies modelled after the German
Landwirtschaftsrat, you are going
down to financial ruin.
Cold government figures show that
this nation of farm owners is rapidly
becoming a nation of farm tenants.
There are now tenants on 81 per cent
of our farm land. That is because
each farmer tries to borrow for him
self and market for himself instead OF
doing it through an organization Of
the kind outlined, such as his oper-
alton in the countries of continental
Europe
You, the farmers, have to plead and
pray on bended knees for money to
finance your crops You pay big in
terest on short time loans. II you
happen not to be able to pay it back
promptly, you are apt to be sold out.
Then you become tenant.
When you take your crop to market,
you have to take the market price or
leave it, even If you know it is less
than your crop cost you to produce.
Debts have been piling up for months.
You must have money You sell.
Next year it may be little better.
or a great deal worse. At best it is
haphazard. What I cannot under
stand is why you submit to this state
of affairs. You don't have to do it
one instant longer than you choose to
do it. Why not build up the proposed
organizations
Rome died in the pomp and gran
deur of her marble halls because she
crushed the mudhouse of the small
land owning farmer She made his
markets poor and his capital hard to
get. The same thing is happening in
the United States today. Therefore
real market and rural credit plan is
vital to the life of the nation.
The marketing organization should
be semi-officially governmental in ma
ton, state. county and township.
mean that all the units should be or
ganized under government charter.
This gives it standing and prestige
without the danger of its becoming a
sinister political organization, or split
into dozens of heterogeneous ineffec-
tive organizations.

REMAIN NEUTRAL
Mexican Leader Promises Gen.
Scott That Gov. Maytorenn
Will Sign Agreement.
(By Associated Press.)


EL PASO. Tex, Jan. 9-General
Villa today gave Brigadicr General
Scott his word tha' he would prevent
further border fighting. which since
the Madero revolution in 1911, has
been menuce TO residents OF Ameri-
can border towns.
The Mexican lender promised he
would order Governor Maytorena to
ntgn an agreement which had been
drafted by General Scott at Naco. 1t
would prevent recurrence OF the
fighting there, which during the last
two months has caused the wounding
and killing Os more than SO persons
on the American side. General Hill,
commander of the Carranza garrison
defending Naco. Sonora. already has
signed the agreement
The 5000 villa troops passing
through Juarez on their way to So
nora, will be sent, Villa said, to Quay
mas. on the California gulf, and not
to participate in fighting along the
border.
|. The agreement also provides that
Naco shall remain neutral territory
and closed to commerce until some
constitutional government IS estab-
lished In Mexico and recogntseu BY
the United States and until one OF the
contending factions in Sonora entire
ly dominates the other. Nogales, held
by Maytorena. ana Aqua Prieta, held
By Hill. shall nor he attacked Tor any
reason whatsoever.
Maytorenn's troops shall retire to
Cananea or Nogales, and shall not
molest the movement of the Hill
forces from Naco to Aqua Prieta.
This last clause is opposed by the
Maytorena faction. Naco is between
Nogales and Aqua Prieta.
General Villa is expected to return
south to direct personally the cam
paign against Cnrraza forces in the
east. General Scott will return to
Washington, perhaps after brief
visit TO Naco.
A Villa force will be detached to
hold General Hills force Mt Aguu
Prieta. but 1t is understood not to at
tack him.
General Villa announced tonight he
would welcome the return &c Mexico
OF all former regular army officers,

titute state In the United States and
other countries. He also ishued a
