FARM PROBLEMS MENACE.
Federation Board Tells What Is
Needed.

Chicago, Sept 23.--In a statement
summarizing conditions after an ex-
haustivc review, the American Farm
Bureau federation last night de-
clared America ''is facing an agri-
cultural economic condition, which, II
not intclligentiy dealt with, will lead
to consequences SO grave as to effect
all industry to the point OF imperil-
ing tha social order"
Farmers are confronted with three
grave problems. transportation, fl
nance and labor, the statement says.
It makes clear that agriculture Is
the hub about which all else revolves.
Everyone is dependent upon the
farmer"
The federal body believes the only
solution OF the transportation prob
lem lies lin preferential treatment OF
for shipment, and OF all goods, such
as feeds and fertilizer, which are
necessary to the business OF farming.
Among the other remedies sug-
| gested is that more profit be given
the farmer by evolving distribution
system which would tend to elim-
mate the middlemen and establish q
afr and stable price for the far
| mers' products.
y There must be better under
standing and closer cooperation

between the farmers and the indus
trial workers" the statement empha-
sizes
An equilibrium must be estab-
| lished between farming and industry
| The farmer must have his just de-

ceives for his products are stabilized
