Delegates
FARMERS NEED AID
President Wilson Asked
To Revive War
Finance

WASHINGTON. - Bankers an
and should aid farmers by assisting
in the establishment Of cooperative
warehousing and selling organizations,
Chairman Joseph Hirsch Of the agri-
cultural commission Of the American
Bankers association declared in pre-
senting the report of the commission
to the convention.
"Many of us have been fearful of
entering the field of marketing be-
cause in doing this we have been
afraid we would come in conflict with
our own customers, the middlemen,
who are buying the farmers prod
uct," the report said. "But it is high
time for the bankers of the country
to realize that a more economical
method of distributing our food pro-
ducts is absolutely essential to the
success of American agriculture, that
unless farmers a produce and sell
their crops with some reasonable as
surance of a fair profit there will be
an increasing tide of men drifting
from the farms to the cities.
I'VE believe in cooperation for
ourselves. The federal reserve sys-
tenn is a cooperative enterprise. In
like manner cooperation among far
ners in apportioning what they pro-
dHce to meet the demands of the
country is economically sound. The
farmer needs your help in this work,
b"cause you can supply him with that
