Farmers Organize at Midland

Over thirty farmers met in Mid
land Tuesday night with repres-
entative of the state department
of marketing and the county ag-
end and signifieds their interest
to Join the Midland Cooperative
Marketing Association.
This meeting was the first of a
series of meetings being held this
week at various points in the ter
ritory tributary to Midland and
Nowlin to work out details and
complete organizations of associa-
tions in these two places. The pur-
poses are to promote, foster and
encourage the business of produc-
ing and marketing grain, livestock.
wool, dairy and other agricultural
products: for the cooperative pur-
chase of coal, lumber and such
other materials as may be COOP
eratively purchased to advantage.
And for improving in every legiti-
mate way the interest of the far
mers of the community. 4
1t is not the intention of this as
sociation to endeavor to put any
established concern out Of business
or to enter into unfair competi-
ton but it will work thru and in
harmony with persent marketing
methods insofar as the best possi-
bic service is rendered Where
wasteful or inefficient methods
are used or inadequate and fair re-
turns are not forthcoming this
association will establish it's own
marketing machinery.
Reports coming to the organiza-
tion committee from its members
throughout the community indis
cate an initial membership for the
association of over two hundred.
A similar organization is being
formed in the territory tributary
to Nowlin and these organizations
are substantial Indications Of the
intention of the farmers of this
country TO solve their problems
thru business organizations instead
of following the false doctrine of
states ownership or political con-
troll.
The fundamental economic prin-
riples of marketing as laid down
In the tentative report Of the com
mittee of seventeen have been adj
opted by the Midland association
and this organization will be one
of the local branches of the ma
tional marketing system now un-l
der way.

IhE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
Listen to the Gamblers Howl.

lhe newspapers OF the country are
beng flooded with propaganda
against the plan OF the American
farm Bureau Federation for farmers
to market their own grain and Sc
cure tor themselves at least a part
OF the huge profits that now goes TO
gamblers.
Let there be no misunderstanding
about talS propaganda. In the hrSt
place, the farmers corporation,
known as the u. 5. Grain Growers,
Inc. is no revolutionary plan. 1t
does not seek TO do away with any
existing marketing agency only such
as is believed to be a hlndrance ra-
tner than an aid.
lhe gambling Boards of Trade
feel that II tie u. S. Grain Growers,
Inc, succeed, that one feature Of
their actNIueS-namely, the trading
in futures, will be eliminated. They,
therefore, have launched very Sc
we're publicity propaganda campaign
against the farmers organization. AT
a meeting Of the National Grain
Dealers in Cincinnati, committee
was appointed to conduct this propa-
ganda campaign and S250,000 was
raised to foot the bill.
This money is now being spent in
printed propaganda by syndicate
which was set up in Chicago by the
Board of Trade.

No Government by Glasses; All
Working for Common Good

In the once of the Presidency,
have come in contact lately with ev-
cry kind of representation in Ameri-
can life-the great leaders of finance,
the influential leaders of labor, lead
ers OF various political groups-and
believe there is not one in any groue
who does not want, deep in his heart,
all that he possibly can to aid in iH
onward march.
Those VINO are suspected most OF
using their places of importance for
selfish ends, are sometimes the most
generous of all in their tenders of
support and sacrifice for our nation S
good. Sometimes you think your gov
ernment is not alert; sometimes you
think it is not concerned with what
you believe to be your interets. Let
me tell you, and | care not what
party is in power, your government
is always seeking to serve you TO the
best of its ability.
You can not always be told every
thing that is going on. | know there
is a school Of American advocates
who believe that everything ought to
be proclaimed at every stage of our
national life That is not practical

Banking Progress

There has been great change in
banking in the past etn years.
People today recognize merit in a
bank not simply because it has been
on one corner for fifty or hundred
years, but on account Of progressive
business methods which meet the
needs Of the community.
Banks loan money today as bus
mess, not as a favor to a privileged
few. 1t is the volume Of small loans
and small deposits which have made
possible the growth Of the American
banking system. Keeping close TO
the people is the secret Of success
in precent-day banking. Banking
prosperity depends upon community
prosperity. 1t is for this reason that
modern banks identify themselves
with and take deep interest in indus
trial Observation-Disclosures.

N. P. L. Program

Following is the tentative program
for Oregon officially announced by
Non-Partisan League:
"l. State or municipality-o owned
terminal elevators, warehouses, cold
storage plants and other sufficient
owned public utilities to pre-
vent profteering.
Y. State owned bank to finance
agriculture, cooperative associations
and the building of homes.
| "3. State development and distri-
button of water power.
Il. The enforcement Of the grain
trading and dockage laws of this
state.
IS. The exemption of farm inn
iprovements from taxation and city
homes to the extent of $1,000 valua.
ton.
"6. A national demand that sur
plus wealth be compelled to pay the
money costs of the war through in
comes and excess profit tax"
Foregoing program would involve
an immense increase in bonds and
taxes for the state to engage in the
various costly and hazardous enter
prises indicated. 1t also includes
step towards single tax, These facts
will cause Oregon farmers to look
askance at it, once its significance is
understood.
Only by heavy bond issues could
the state or any of its subdivisions
finance the construction or purchase
of elevators, warehouses, cold stor-
age plants and other utilities. 1t
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1921-09-08

would require bond issues of S4O,-
o00O0O OF more to Put the state in
the water power business, this being
the amount contemplated in the
Joseph bill, turned down by the last
legislature in spite Of the fact that
all the forces Identified with the
Non-ParuSan League were favorable
tO the measure.
The steps towards Single Tax
would be in increasing the tax ex-
emphon Of farm and city homes. The
exemption would throw a heavier
burden on land, and is the customary
step followed by Single Takers to-
wards attainment of their ultimate
purpose, the exemption of all prop
.ery except land from taxation.
Item I of the N. P. L, program is
one which no one can dispute. If
the grain grading and iockage laws
or Oregon are not being enforced
they should be.
Plank 6 has no separate relation
to Oregon. 1t simply represents the
desire of one class to shift their
share of the cost of the war to an
other class. The tendency of Con-
greSS is to conform with this desire,
with the result that large incomes
are so heavily penalized that the
tendency is to refrain from Wrestling
them in business enterprises.
The "State-owned bank" would be
an unnecessary burden, and in the
light of North Dakota experience,
might lead to disaster, from which
farmers and laborerS would be the

REALLY A BRILLIANT IDEA
SehooI-teaeher Saw at Once the Particular Value of Certain
 Somewhat Peculiar Toy.

It looked to her like a big idea, She had discovered one of those elusive, seductive, tantalizing little tops, so popular now, in which the mere spinning of it gives one OppOr- tunity to take one, take all, pay three, etc. Being an Indianapolis school teacher, she immediately noted it as a novelty.
 "Such a clever little thing" she said to the clerk. I've never seen a top like it before. What are they fOr?"
 ''Well, they're a sort of diversion" the saleswOman replied. Many peO- pie use them financially"
 "Oh, yes, of course, of course. How many of them have you? I was just teaching the children combinations in numbers-nice for arithmetic, as it were. e."-IndianapOlis News.
