sided at the meeting. 1T will be nee
essary to store the crop on the farm
this year. not only because of the i'm
to market, but also because prices
early in the market season most GER
tainly will be far less than the cost
of production" Whitehurst declared.
Prices will be low because Of the
removal of federal restrictions OF the
foreign exchange and because of jug
Cling with the market by foreign
buyers"

That a committee of nine be ap-
pointed to confer Immediately with the

Bankers association TO work out a
definite means of financing the years

the directors of the federal reserve
bank of the tenth district, to obtain
for the growers of Oklahoma the most
favorable rediscount privilege consist
ent with safe banking, and with the
desperate emergency which now ex.
lists.
That an educational campaign be
undertaken to tell the people OF the
real seriousness of the existing stu
alton and the necessity for prompt
action and complete cooperation on
the part Of all citizens 10 the end
that agriculture in Oklahoma may be
maintained and that serious financial
loss which ultimately would be felt
by every citizen may be avoided"
