Farm Bureau Seeks to Organize
Agriculture in aid Of
Real Producers
GREAT TASKS AHEAD

Washington, Jan. 31.-The national
agricultural conference which recently
closed, after adopting recommendations
designed to eliminate farm depression
| and prevent recurrence thereof was
hailed as the most far-reaching confer
ence Of farmers ever held, in q state
ment by J. R. Howard, and we're made
the basis Of study by Secretary Wal
lace and other officials upon whom
will devolve the task Of making them
effective.
Referring to President HardinR's
suggestion in opening the conference
that the far,ners seek to unite In CO.
operative organizations Mr.. Howard
said:
"The Farm Bureau will undertake
to organise all the farmers and unite
them into strong commodity market
ing associations which will improve
the distribution of food to the lasting
benefit of both consumer and producer.
We want to bring the eater and the
grower closer together.
The agricultural conference will 20
down in history as the most far-reach-
ing conference Of farmers ever held.
The 'topmost feature, Of course, wss
the address of the president Of the
United States and the Recommendation
which 1t contained Of the administra-
tion's attitude toward agriculture.
Probably no chief executive of the ma
ton has previously indicated 20 deep
and intelligent an interest in the
farmers affairs.
President Harding recognized the
nrticnlar state Of agriculture; stressed
the outstanding Importance Of agricul-
ture in our national life. showed that
the farmers must have credit system
adapted to their needs; asserted that
lasting improvements can come only
through the development of co-opera-
tive marketing; favored scientific
Limitation of production and pointed
out the dignity of the profession.
"The cooperative marketing move
ment is a protest against excess mar
gin and disributive cost. 1t Is no
new thing 1t has been carried on sue
cessfully in Europe for years. Within
less than fifty years Denmark, through
cooperative marketing, has reduced
distributing costs SO that the producer
receive 7o cents Of the consumc7's dol
lar; more than twlce as much as We
get here and through cooperative
marketing has rebuilded her eatiro
nat onal prosperity.
Secretary Wallace comes out Of the
conference with his hands greatly
strcngt' ened to perform rssl ,nd
{ :t,mtc service for agriculture and the
nut .on.
Particularly noticeable is the farm
ers' demand for early completion Of
the st. Lawrence-Great Lakes deep
waterway, development Of Muscle
Shoals by Henry Ford and the build
ing of credit machine adapted to
farm needs at reasonable rates sf in
terest and the farmers demand that
both capital and labor must share
alike in the readjustments which have
already hit agriculture.

The New Prime
Minister W ould
Defer Debt Action

By United Press
London, Oct. 31.-Andrew BonaP
Law in his unsought authority over
English affairs, as the new prime
minister, after the resignation of
Lloyd George, wants TO delay fur
ther debt refundiEg negotiations
with the United States until after
the General Election in November.
This action is sought by Bonar Law
by reason Of his unwillingness TO
enter negotiations OF such magni-
tude until he receives final verdict
Of approval from the British peo-
pie.
Andrew Bonar Law, heading the
Conservatives, sees an uncompleted
task awaiting someone should the
Conservatives fail in the General
Election to obtain a majority. Be-
lieving that the verdict Of the peo-
pie should guide affairs Of such mag
nitude and that their verdict will
be favorable to the Conservatives
Delay of only few days in the ne
gotiations with the United States
will be Of little moment and in
event "Coaltionist' party gains
majority in the General Election
they will not be handicapped with
an uncompleted task.
The FIRST formal cabinet meeting
with Law viii be held Wednesday.

BIG SAVING TO THE SOUTHPLAINS
PEOPLE BY MARKED CHANGE IN
THEFREICHT RATES TO TE1lSPOINT

know that the merchants Of Lubbock
are the type Of men who give heir
customers full benefits Of any saw
ings that might be affected, and
This reduction in transportation
costs will enable them 20 again show
their liberality. Every man, wo-
man and child In the trade terri
tory Of Lubbock viii receive the
benefit Of this reduction in proper
tion % the amount Of goods they
purchase in Lubbock. This can
therefore be looked upon with favor
by everyone.
II is with much pleasure that we
are enable to make this reduction
announcement in the first issue Of
The Morning Avalanche. as the very
existence Of this issue proclaims an
advancement in the life Of Lubbock
and this reduction announcement
heralds a new era IN the business
life of her institutions.
The business men Of Lubbock
have made their way through one
Of the most stringent periods in the
life Of the city, and the announce
ment Of this reduction will no doubt
be looked upon by them as the ap-
proach Of better going for every line
of industry.
Let's remember that the local
Chamber Of Commerce is instru-
mental in way for gaining this
reduction for Lubbock shippers and
receivers and that this should be
taken as another genuine reason for
your wholehearted support Of that
organization.
Lubbock is growing. No more
is this city in the small town class,
nor no more are our people to face
approaching problems with the view
Of small town folks. but in expand
ing 20 keep apace with the times
our business men have become am
ply big enough 10 meet any problem
squarely, the one Of transportation
has been TO some extent solved. Let's
look upon this as an achievement
worthy Of our heartiest commenda-
tion 70 those instrumental in bring
ing IL to light.

Amishce Day Celebration VIII Be Held
On Sunday, Nov 18th, in Order That the

10 request Lubbock merchants 20
close on Saturday would place them
In position that would result in
much loss OF time and money TO
them, as well as place them in an
awkward attitude toward their Gus
TONER'S interests. for Il is known
that should the Legion ask Lubbock
merchants 20 colse their doors on
this day they would do so at what
soever cost it might incur.
This action, therefore. is purely
patriotic.
The men who head the Allen
Brothers Post. American Legion, are
the type Of men whose efforts are
responsible for the peace we enjoy
today. and when they place their
approval upon changing dates for
celebrating Armistice Day or any
other important memorial date. their
action should meet with the approx
al OF all concerned.

a very important meeting was

will 20 into effect December 18th,
which viii mean "a saving Of not less
han S1OO.O00.OO per year TO the
business men Of Lubbock.
As soon as possible to compile
the data the Secretary Of the Cham
Der Of Commerce VIII figure out in
dollars and cents the amount that
viii actually be saved. Resolution
was passed and written in the rec
ords expressing the appreciations Of
the Chamber of Commerce for the

Traffic Manager Of the Texas Cham
Der of Commerce, 7. B. Gallaher,
General Freight and Passenger
Agent of the Santa Fe, and Mr.. j.
r. Anton. superintendent Of the
Santa Fe Railway, in obtaining these
reductions for Lubbock.
One hundred thousand dollars is
lot Of money.
There have been those who have
prated about the possibilities Of
Lubbock going 10 the dogs because
Of the enormous amounts Of money
spent for brick buildings, and yet
here comes an announcement from
the Chamber of Commerce secre-
tary TO the effect that on only one
item-transpOrtation--Lubbcck bust
nessmen are TO be saved an amount
Of money that II put into brick
buildings, would at the end Of a
few wears. make past investments
look mighty small.
There is nothing mythical about
this situation either
The very fact that one hundred
thousand dollars Is a great deal
Of money, does not mean by any
means that Il il whole lot Of
money when compared with the ag-
NitNatt aAn"AtAt 'f'hA "'t' t'@' f@"'
on transportation.
The fact that that much money
can be saved TO Lubbock shippers
Is within itself proof that gigantic
shipping business Is done here. and
suhftantlates any statements that
have been made m TO the bigness
