Decreased Farm Production Next

Due to Dissatisfaction of

HIGH PRICES TO CONSUMERS

Many Farmers No Longer Willing to

Washington, d. c., Jan. 30-De-
creased farm production next season
and consequent increase in the cost
of living, due to dissatisfaction OF
farmers, was predicted before the Sc
nate postofiice committee Friday by
James j. Blakslee former assistant
postmaster general.
A report summerizing the contents
of the farmers answers, prepared by
George l.. Wood, superintendent of
the division of rural mails, was read
by Mr.. Blakeslee. Declaring that the
farmers were tired Of receiving low
returns for long, hard periods of toll
while city dwellers lived in lease and
comfort with high wages and short
hours the report said the replies re
ceived indicated that hundreds OF
farmers had resolved either to quit
the farm or greatly decrease produc-
tion.
Complaint was made in a majority

high prices paid by consumers as
compared with the low return to the
farmer, indicating the disproportion-
ate profit for the middlcman. Many
farmers, the report said, are no long
er willing Ito toll and porduce for
the striker. the profiteer. and the
short hours, high wage man."
A member OF the committee re-
marked that the replies seemed to be
mostly from a bunch of bolsheviks"
but Mr.. Blakeslee said that in his
opinion the situation was extremely,
serious. @
Inability to obtain farm labor was
another factor. the great demand in
the cities for labor with high pay and
short hours driving farm help out Of
the labor market. ~
"The high cost Of wearing apparel,
of staples not produced on the farm,
of farm implements and fertilizers,
all of which have filled the farmers
mind with resentment, is certain to
result in the curtailment of food
production" the report said.

hundreds of others arriving daily con-

Fort said.
Extension of the rural parcel post
service to make it easier for the
farmer to sell his products direct to
the city consumer was advocated by
Mr.. Blakeslee as one step toward cor
recting conditions.

business seem to be the most interes-
ted. When the season Is over, CAM
paign h0rsemen will have abundant
evidence of the value of the associa-
tion. in dollars and cents, but for
the .betterment of the turf and to
retain what we have already gained,
the permanency of the association is
en- absolute necessity. This cannot, !
fear, be maintained under the pres
cnt plan. There Is the lack OF indi-
vidual responsibility. The amible
method of letting George do it is
too easy. Hence the question arises
Are we strong enough to say: Mem
hers must not race with non-mem-
bers,' or to request the associations
to open their classes for members
only. These questions, radical as
they may seem, must come up for
discussion and POSSIBLE settlement
this winter. The strength of any as
sociation depends on the cohesive
Eess Of its members, which is the
more readily acquired by the benefits
derived. and the benefits must be
directly to the Individual, rathor
than In the mass, in order to be
properly appreciated by the ind!-
vidual!
