~ Nby the ASSOCluAc0 1881
Washington. Jan 26.-Indications OF
hot contests in the national agrieul-
turaI conference developed today with
government price fixing and endorse
ment of the agricultural bloc in con-
gress as issues.
While the conference listened to ad-
dresses on the needs of an additional
food supply for an increasing popula-
ton and an the need for national
policies as to forestry, land utilization
and agricultural research delegates in
committee sessions and in informal
meetings discussed the two questions
which both proponents and opponents
agreed would provoke future heated
debate.
Farmers Union In Lead.
Delegates holding membership in
the National Farmers union an
nounced that they had drawn up reso-
buttons which would call on the presi-
dent and congress to take Rction look
ing toward fixing of minimum guar
antee prices for cotton, wheat. corn
and other agricultural products among
the lines pursued by the government
during the war.
Such a resolution was voted down
in the marketing committee of the
conference as the Farmers union dele
gates had declared their intention il
defeated in committee to carry the
fight to the convention floor.
The marketing. committee as a sub
stitute for the price fixing resolution,
adopted a recommendation that the
president and congress take such steps
as would tend to bring the prices of
agricultural products to level with
those of other commodities. Commit
tee discussion was said to have indi-
Gated a large proportion of sentiment
against fixing of prices thru govern
mental action.
senate Takes Hand.
Coincident with these developments,
]. S Wanamaker, of s. C. president
of the American Cotton association
appearing at senate agriculture hear
ingon the pending Ladd price stabili-
fixing of prices Of farm products alone
would save the agricultural industry
from bankruptcy.
The witness estimated that the gov
eminent would not have to expend
more than $500. 100000 in purchasing
farm products in order to stabilize
prices. He suggested that prices be
fixed on only wheat. corn and cotton
and said that the government would
have to purchase very little of any
of these products in order to main
tain the fixed prices.
Senator Page. Republican, Vermont,
said every one realized that the agri-
cultural industry was in sad plight
and something should be done to re-
lieve it If possible, but he suggested
the government could not fix and
maintain minimum prices of wheat and
corn without prohibiting the import
of these commodities into the United
States Mr. Wanamaker and several
senators agreed that an embargo
would have to follow any price fixing
program.
