Dear Sir:-At the final campaign

unGer the auspices of the American
City Bureau, four hundred and seven

with the prospects still to be seen

"Of course the installation work
has not yet commenced, but MANY of
US feel that the number of members
secured, or even the funds pledged
to the organization, do not represent
the greatest benefit which we have
already received. Rather is that to
be found in the splendid new civic

Of the Smith-Lucas telegram was re-
garded in political circles as a devel-
opment of unusual significance, not
only because of the long and faith
full service of Arthur Lucas and J. R.

but because of their past factional
affiliations.
Mr.. Lucas managed William j. Har-
ris' senatorial campaign in the last
Democratic primary in Georgia and
Mr. Smith was in charge of William

that these gentlemen have united in

corn of the finest quality is being
held on the farms of the state be-
cause the price offered does not pay
the cost of production. Fortunate,
indeed, is the farmer who can afford
to do this: most OF the renters are
compelled to sell at the price offered
"A cents-in order to pay their
rent and other obligations.
In many eases farmers have been
compelled to sell their grain at ruin
Gus prices in order to meet pressing
demands for finances, but in cases
where this is not necessary the farm
ers seem determined to follow the
advice of the farm bureau federation
and hold on"
However, the present stringent fl
nancial situation will have accom-
plished much if it does nothing more
than call to the attention of the live
stock interests and farmers of the
state the great necessity for ade-
quate financing plan which will take
care of them in Just such emergen-
cies as we are now passing through.
Recent banker-farmer conferences
held in several of the larger cities
of Iowa. having for their object a
free and comprehensive discussion
OF the needs of the farmer and live
stock grower, have accomplished
much good and we may look for
something constructive and lasting
to emerge from these get-together
sessions.
