Cleveland, Feb. 12.-Farmers of the

j. X. Howard, Chicago, president Of
the American Farm Bureau Fedora

Missouri were ready to donate 10000

on Washington's birthday, Feb. -.
Improvement in economic conditions
and economic justice must be secured
through two methOds-pOlitical action
and independent cooperative activi-
ties, and both are essential and inter
dependent, Benjamin c. Marsh OF
Washington told the delegates.
'The program of the peoples re-
construction league will save the
American people who work with hand
or brain $6,O0O,0OO,O 900 a year for
many years to come, an average Of
S57 per capita, or $685. for a family
of five said Mr.. Marsh. This pro-
gram includes:
al. Prompt restoration of the rail
roads TO unified government operation,
which will save the American people
at least Sl,50O,000,0O0 a year,
40. Legislation Il control the meat
packing industry, which will save the
American people at least $500. 100000
n year. II is a clear ease of the Amer
lean people versus the packers. and no
evasion or pretext will justify any
member Of Congress in opposing the
enactment of the Gronna bin.
-. Taxation of privilege instead OF
poverty, which will save the American
people at least $1,000, 600. 600 "A year.
A high and rapidly progressive lax
upon incomes, estates and excess prof
its should be retained until the full
money cOst of the war has beer paid.
II. Making our banking and credit
system serve the American people.
This will save the American people at
least $500, 100000 a year. The House
should promptly adopt the resolution
introduced by Congressman Baer OF
North Dakota calling for an investiga-
ton of the charge that a little group
of international bankers working
through the federal reserve system
control money and credit and paralyze
legitimate m and industry.
-. Control of natural resources,
which will save the American people
at least S750,OO0, 900 Il year.
"6. Universal compulsory military
training must be defeated, which will
save the American people. scores OF
millions of dollars in taxes"
