quested by Senator Rice w. Means OF
Colorado, commandments to en-
list with your comrades in an organ
ization which has been dedicated to
the memory of those who have gone
into the great beyond and to the task
of caring for our disabled comrades

The request was embodied in greet

national headquarters here to all State
and camp officers in the United States

We did not shirk our responsibility OF
leadership in war time; we must not
shirk our responsibility of leadership
in peace time. We want closer aft1lia
ton between veteran organizations
and between the service men Of all

country under the same flag in an
effort to preserve and maintain Ameri

"The United Spanish War Veterans
wish we'll to service men of all wars

To Attract Farmers to Extent Expected

marketing. The farmers who are
able to sell, however, are accepting
s or 10 cents less than the top price:
The loan agencies were the Nationa!
Agricultural Credit corporations or
Des Moines and Fort Dodge. The
result Of their operations was ex-
pected to determine in large measure
whether such agencies should be
formed on permanent basis.
Harry Laird manager of the Des
Moines corporation, said he believed
the corporations record pointed to
disparity between the purchasing
power of the farmer and persons in
other industries as the chief agr1cul-
tural problem, and that adequate
finance machinery already existed for
the farmer, with perhaps few
changes in the law to make the ware
house act more workable.
The Fort Dodge corporation, still
ated in the heart of the corn-growing
section of Iowa. placed about $4,000
| with corn growers and live stock
breeders, while the Des Moines com
pany loaned more than 100000,

DIES MONIES, Iowa, October A.
An experiment in farm finance,
launched at the suggestion Of Secre-
tary of Agriculture Jardine, ,Sappears
to have disclosed that American farm
ers are little interested in facilities
for agricultural loans.
A year ago two finance corpora
tons were organized for the purpose
of issuing short term loans to- aid
farmers of their State in holding their
crops for better prices. The corpora
tions were prepared to loan several
million dollars, but the amount actual
ly placed was less than one million,
and much Of that money went to big
live stock feeders and for purposes
other than the storing Of corn for q
more favorable market.
The corporations now are engaged
in clearing up their accounts and a
survey shows that during the period
corn was at it's peak. in July and

sold for the liquidation Of loans.
