EXPOSE GRAIN
COOP AS TRUST
PROFIT SCHEME
Tried to Unload on the
Skeptical Farmers
BY CARL HAEssLER,
Federated Press

The inside is beginning to leak out
about the $26,ooo,0oo Grain Market
ing Co, "the farmers own company"
hailed in the capitalist press year
ago as an outstanding example Of CO.
operative endeavor. While the finan-
claI writer's tossed their greasy caps
In air the farmers who were expected
to come across with the cooperating
stuck to their blowing and talked
about the big wind when the COM
peay's stock statesmen approached
them. atat
The Grain Marketing Co., according
to Its principal promoter, was an un-
loading scheme, hastily got up when
1t seemed that the McNary Haugen
bill had chance of passing thru
the congress. The bill did not pass
and the unloaders are not unwilling
to take back their property, particu-
larry as they found no place where
the unloading was good.
Matter of Profits.
This is the conclusion that seems
to lie under the surface Of the I'M
usually frank statement of Nanny
Rosenbaum, the high jinx of the pro-
posed cooperative, who put the grain
elevators of Rosenbaum Bros. and Of
the Rosenbaum Grain Corp into the
pot. Armour tossed in his grain cor
poration and so did the Kansas City
firm Of Davis-NolandMerrill Co. Says
Rosenbaum, a Chicago grain specula-
tor:
Last year we were looking at the
-Haugen bill. II 1t passed it
meant the federal government would
be in the grain business. We had
properties and didn't wish to see their
value destroyed. So a cooperative or
ganization was formed by farmers and
by us for all farmers. Now if the
government goes into the grain bust
ness the government will have to
compete with strong well establish
ed cooperative organization, any pro
fits which go to the farmers"
To Take Property Back.
What this really means is that the
promoters would nave got Dig price
for their shaky business with the far
mers holding the bag when the gov
eminent plan got under way. The
farmers didn't bite, the bill didn't
pass and things look pretty rosy again
for Armour, Rosenbaum, and other
friends of the farmer.
The 100000 expected to be drawn
out Of the farmers thru stock sales
to make good on the elevator options
by August 1, is nowhere in sight. 1t
usual all around with the American
looks very much like business as
Farm Federation's grandiose co-opera-
tive scheme unmasked as an emer-
gency unloading device that is to be
scrapped since the emergency feared
by the grain gamblers did not mate

aries for the same Office and amend
ing law which was repealed 20 years
ago. Also a bill doing away with

ing its powers in the hands of one

ly to raise the salary of the president

The speaker of the assembly and
the president of the senate inadvert-
emily signed the bill with others and
there is no way Of abrogating it ex-
cept by referendum That the mis-
take was purposely made is indicated
by the fact that Gov. Richardson We
