Sen. Johnson
Here SATURDAY.
TOWNLEY ALSO TO SPEAK AT
ARMORY SEPTEMBER %,
AT 500 P. nj.

Senator Magnus Johnson of Min
nesota and A. c. Townley, president
of the National Producers Alliance
will speak jointly at a meeting of
farmers and business men at the
Redwood Falls, Armory on September
22nd. at eight o'clock.
The National Producers Alliance
was organized in Minneapolis in Feb
ruary of this year. The purpose of
the Alliance, as explained in its litera-
ture, is to organize the farming in
dustry on basis whereby the farmer
will first determine the average cost
of producing farm commodities and
then fix price on these commodities
based on cost of production plus a
reasonable profit. This, the spokes-
men of the Alliance say, is the only
way to make farming pay.
The Alliance points out that all
other business and trades fix prices.
Manufacturers, wholesalers and re-
tailers, fix prices on the cost plus sys-
tenn. Professional men have organ
izatiOns by means of which fees are
fixed. Labor fixes wages in most of
the industries. Farming remains as
the only business which is not organ
lied to fix prices. AS consequence
of the farmers lack of price fixing
organization, farm commodities are
produced in most cases below the cost
of production.
Senator Johnson has advocated
stabilization of prices by the govern
ment, but feels that price fixing as a
government measure would only be
a temporary means of agricultural
relief. Senator Johnson is a farmer
and has publicly announced his sup
port of farmer organization which
will have for it's object price fixing
by the farmers themselves.

A Correction.

I wish to state to the public that
/ was not tried on charge of "using
a dangerous weapon with attempt to
kill" upon John Vierling, Jr. I was
arrested upon this charge, but it was
proven in court that no knife had been
used, and the charge was changed to a
charge of assault and battery, to
which I pleaded guilty and paid my
fine. This statement is made to cor
rect the idea held by several persons
that was tried on the first charge.
Court records and newspaper reports
bear out this statement.
