FARMERS KICK AND HAVE
GOOD REASONS FOR KICKING

Producers of raw materials al
ways suffer first when prices start to
90 to lower levels just as they are
the first to have advantage of rls-
ing prices. Senator Arthur Can
per of Kansas is authority for the
statement that while farmers are
being forced to sell their proucts at
Il loss of some 100000, 900 the
profits of middlemen have kept pri-
ces up to such an extent that the
lpublic has reaped little benefit from
big productions in the prices Of raw
materials. That there is urgent
ing conditions in the United States
and for drastic remedying of 4
situation that places farmers at the
mercy of grain gamblers and dis
tributors of freight cars is shown
by the following illustrations Sena-
tor Capper gave in recent and
timely newspaper article:
