states. selected by the flockmas,ers
In their respective states. A ninth
commissioners should be selected by
all the flockmasters In the four states
to the end the commission would new
er be locked and unable to oct.
There are In the four states for the
two years approximately one humid
red and thirty million pounds OF wool
Our commission with this amount OF
wool to sell will be able to command
the attention OF all who desire to pur-
chase wool.
A hundred million dollar foreign
trade finance corporation IS being
formed and II is possible that all
this wool II pooled may be sold
through this corporation 10 the ma
tions or Europe. An individual flock
! master would be unable to get the
hearing from this corporation or from
foreign nations that this commission
would be able to obtain
This commission should be selected
In the very same manner the direct
ors OF the Federal Reserve Banks are
selected. Under the plan each flock.
master would have the right to nom.
mate men Of his own choosing, send
the nominations In. then ballots
would be prepared showing the nom
nations and the ballotirg would b,
on these ballots with the hnowledg,
CT the nominations as to number.
am enclosing herewith the pro
posed agreement for signing by thos'
lockmasters who are willing to joir
the pool and II Is se!f-explanatory
I strongly urge every flockmnster I,
join the pool. ! believe this commits
sion of nine OF our strongest and bcs
men can come nearer obtaining tn,
right price for this wool than an.
one flockmnster can obtain for hi
own wool. The very nature OF al
traflc is that where q few deal will
many. the few dictate AZ TO price. TIL
few wool buyers have FOR oil thes
years been debating TO the man,
flockmasters. The merchants bein
few In number as compared with tn
many who buy have ever been abb
to dictate as to price ind SO It will
be with us. II we constitute one com
mission to handle this wool for tn
many flockmasters II will be able :
dictate to the textile manufacturer
as to what they shall ray.
, Now as to pay to the commission
, I suggest It should have all It's actua
expenses and such compensation q
to time as may be just, not exceetlin
, the usual cost of marketing thes
woods through established houses an
. VIC can safely leave thai to the CON
, mission with the limit fixed by tn
, established rates for such service.
Sign and return the enclosed agree
, ment to me with your nominations a
carly as you can On March LIST,
this agreement Is numerously signet
the ballots for selecting the commits
sion will be sent out for the voting
, II you join the pool and II your woo
has not been sold, ] suggest that 20
do not let II be sold TIL the commits
sion Is functioning. and let II handl
the sale. ] make the prediction tina
II ninety per cent OF tn. wool in tn
four states Is placed In this pool. an
II q proper commission Is established
that the commission will sell NOR
than half of the wool produced in tn
entire United States. II IL not pro
posed to 20 TO any particular expens
In the marketing OF this wool but tina
all the present facilities be utilized
and that II will be the duty OF tn
commission largely to say at wha
price one particular grade OF woo
OF equal quality in all respects shall
: sell for. There Is no reason why on
grade of wool. having the same quail
tiles In all respects should sell at diff
ferent prices, yet this same thing |
: done year after year AS II has bee
