Ot. TauIs rCU. .0I0iu ke7uV~

commerce must be compelled TO
admit farmers cooperative agcn-
cies to full membership.
That is the message delivered
to the state legislature by tho
Minnesota Farm Bureau Fedora
tion as result Of replies by
the County Farm Bureaus to its
request Of expressions Of opin-
ion on the grain gambling and
public market bills. While the
response from the counties has
been slow. every county Bureau
that has replied 10 far. has
urged passage of both bills. In
obedience to this mandate from
its members, the state federation
went before the house and sem
ate committees at joint hearings
on Feb. 2 and 3. and urged pas
sage in the interest Of the pro-
ducers Of the state.

for the measure. Officers Of
the Minneapolis Chamber Of
Commerce. the Duluth Board Of
Trade and the St. Paul Livestock
Exchange assisted by a few
country elevator men brought in
by the chamber of commerce to
represent the farmers, opposed
the federation.
In urging passage Of the bill
to compel boards Of trade to ad-
NIT cooperatives to membership.
the farmers representatives
used the following arguments:
The farmers demand that the
chambers Of commerce be opened
to them as public instead Of pri-
vate markets. Every county
bureau heard from demands pas
sage Of the bill.
The men who produce the
grain have a right to follow il
to the market and retain control
Of it until it reaches the user or
manufacturer.
The chambers Of commerce arc
the only institutions doing pub
lie business without state con-
troll; they should be as much sub.
ject to regulation as the railroads
or the country elevator.
The chambers have no right to
insist that farmers can come in
only in stock companies. not in
cooperative agencies, because re-
fusal TO permit patronage divi-
dends destroys the fundamental
principle Of cooperative market.
