Cooperation and Monopoly

Farmers should not confuse cooperation and mo-
Aopoly, is the warning sent out BY the Louisians state
department Of agriculture, in a bulletin which states
that many growers are under the impression that TO-
operative marketing organizations have for their OBJ
jective monopoly cf markets.
Commenting on this widespread misunderstandin
Of the cooperative principle the bulletin says:
"Farmers and others interested in agriculture should
be given facts and not fiction. There are two worthy
causes that have been decidedly hurt in Louisiana BY
well-meaning friends Of these progressive agricultural
programs. The damage has been done BY the making
OF some public statements which are not based on
facts, and which create some very erroneous impress
stons.
The impression often given out in discussing CO.
operative marketing is that farmers will be able TO
saI 1t their own prices through monopoly control Of
their product. Complete monopoly control Of an agri-
cultural product has never been, is not nov, and prob
ably never will be possible. Cooperative marketing
has many good features 10 recommend its use BY farm
ers, without trying to lead producers TO believe thai
they can get . monopoly control Of their product, and
thereafter sit BY and demand a set price for their
crop. based on a profit. in addition 70 the cost Of pro-
duction.
MANY co-operatives have been wrecked in this
country because Of exaggerated claims and promises
made BY friends Of the movement. Organizations
founded on the promises made about the great. and
p~ftentimes next 70 impossible things which cooperative
marketing was going 10 do, are easy prey for the enc
mics Of the movement"
The real objective a cooperation is 10 correct eco
nomic conditions. not TO secure 4 monopoly obviously
impossible Of attainment. When the farmers OF the
United States are organized for real cooperation they
will be In position 70 eliminate economic conditions
which now tend to prevent efficient distribution and
reasonable profits. and relief from these conditions will
prove far more beneficial 70 agriculture than would
complete monopoly.

The World and All
THESE swEDEs
BY Charles r. Driseoll

Pioneers will suffer. Of course. and some will b.
lost. but ! believe the route attempted by Hassell and
Cramer in the Greater Rockford will become q con-
mercial air route TO Europe some day. There will be
many routes. One very important route will lead over
the top Of the world to Russia. Another will skirt the
ice cap by way of Greenland and Iceland to Sweden.
! am particularly anxious to see this route demon
strated as practicable, because I believe the United
States and the Scandinavian countries always have
been geographically too far apart. Culturally. they are
closely allied. II . good air route could be opened be-
tween Stockholm and the interior Of the United States,
this country certainly would be the gamer as much ~
would Sweden.
We are paying more attention to the Scandinavian
elements in our population since Charles LindberEh
made his heroic flight to Paris. But the Scandinavians
have been here all tie time, helping manfuIly to build
the kind Of country We all take pride in. These north
erners are well distributed throughout the United
States, but they are especially numerous in Minnesota,
Wisconsin. North Dakota. South Dakota. Iowa and nli-
nois. There l. q fine, prosperous colony Of them Ia
Kansas.
IL happens that ! know The Swedes better than the
Norwegians or the Danes. I have found them honest.
Industrious, and possessed Of an incurable love for
beauty. They have also q wholesome respect for law,
and they are orderly TO an extent that commands ad-
miration.
wherever you find Swedes In numbers, you find
good music. q striving for artistic expression, and album
dance Of flowers. Selma Lagerlof, the Swedish novel
ist, Is one Of my fayorite authors. I have just finish
ed her Charlotte Lowenskold" and ~The Generals
Ring" and previously l have read with much pleasure
her "The Story Of Costa Berling." Jerusalem MAR
backa,' and "Liliecrona's Home" All fine imaginative
storie, and handsomely done.
Americans in general ought TO learn more about
these swedes. ! hope | may live to fly In comfort 70

boys who flew the Greater Rockford.

GERMANY PICTURED AS MAKING REAL

BY DIR. JULIUS KLEIN. Commercial Expert.
Julius Klein was born Al San Jose. Calf June

California and received NJ. A. and Pr. u. degrees al
Harvard. later studying 1t the University Or Ber-
lin and the Sorbonne. Paris. After spending sew

has since held. His home is in Washington, ID. CD
The achievements of the New Germany" in trade,
industry and transportation demonstrate an extraordi-
nary capacity for recovery from one Of the greatest Of
the worlds economic disasters. The German people,
adroitly. tenaciousIy, have been toiling up the Hill out
Of the dark abyss, moved By a logged determination to
regain the commercial position that they enjoyed be-
fore the world was plunged into the maelstrom Of war.
The figures Of German trade are rising. The fig
ures for the first half Of the present year show that
Germany shipped 10 foreign countries S2l2O00,00O
more than in the corresponding six months Of 1927
And the surplus Of imports over exports was S7S,000s-
600 less. German export is increasing more steadily.
and ID q greater pace. than that Of any other important
Euroupean country.

duction and the effective marshalng cf economic
forces.
The labor situation in Germany leaves much TO be
desired, however. Discomfort and even . certain de-
gree Of menace are discernible in the ranks Of German
workmen. springing apparently from the feeling that
wages are still more or less out Of line with living
costs and the c~ountry's general economic advance
Germany. after the postwar loss Of nearly all her
mercantile marine, has now rebuilt this 70 10 per cent
of its prewar size, possessing today more than 5,5000.-
900 gross tons Of shipping and again ranking high a.
q maritime nation Of the world. Germany il re-estab-
fishing her worldwide services with modern and eco
nomical ships. Her shipping lines have effected nu-
merous amalgamations, larger companies absorbing
smaller ones for the purpose Of eliminating COMPETE
tive services and gaining control Of feeder lines.
Advancing in civil aviation, last year the total dis
tance flown By German planes was 100000 miles,
nearly IL times the mileage recorded only four years
earlier. The German state railways last year carried
IS per cent more freight than in 1925. Half a million
motor vehicles are owned in Germany today. against
1000 five years ago.
These facts show that, despite 9 number Of unde-
niably adverse factors and unfavorsbIe conditions that
still await solution, Germany has been remarkably suc-
cessful in coming back" since the desperate days Of
the period 1ele1a23.
