lied the administrations cooperative
marketing bill as merely a sugar
pill" lacking the qualities necessary
for complete solution of the farm
problem. ,-,4 LII .~a
The demand for legislation to sup
plement the cooperative bill has by
no means been confined to the insur-
gents from the west. Some Of the
ranking Republican regulars from the
states beyond the Mississippi have
Joined in the effort to secure such
an expansion of the administration
program as would meet the urgent
petitions of their constituents.
The plan now under consideration
by the agriculture department CEN
tiers upon the creation of "a farm
board or commission with broad
powers to deal with the surplus
problem, but with the handling of
farm products resting absolutely
with Understandable agencies. In
one extreme form which has been
proposed, the legislation would call
for extending financial aid from the
government in handling surplus farm
products and the levying Of an ex-
else tax to take care of probate losses

ably, be sufficient to bring the kilo-
wat hour cost down.
The light plant is not costing the
taxpayers one cent as the entire bill
is paid by the light users. The con-
tract entered into Tuesday evening is
exactly like. the one used by the
Northern States Power Company with
every community where they whole
sale electricity. The contract is very
short and comparatively simple
one that will not require technical
legal ability to interpret.
Of course with the signing of the
new contract the Light and Power
Commission have abandoned any no
ton Of investing $4,000 or more in
the purchase of new electrical equip
ment but the present plant will be
kept in order for standby" emer-
gencies.
Sank Centre citizens have been
purchasing electricity at maximum
price of 10 cents per klowat; there
are only four cities in the state that
have as good a rate. There isn't
any intention on the part of the COM
mission to change or increase the rate
under the new contract.
