Pledge U. S. Board Support.
The bureau pledged its support to the
Federal Farm Board.
The action was taken in a resolution
adopted at the closing session of the
organizations eleventh annual conven-
ton, at which Boston was chosen for
the 1880 meeting.
I'VE pledge support to the Federal
Il
broadcast possible benefits to agriculture
in the control of agricultural SURPRISES,
seasonal or otherwise, and in making
the tariff effective on all farm crops"
the resolution read. Should it be
found necessary to amend the agricul-
tural marketing act to accomplish these
purposes, we pledge our unqualified sup
port in so doing"
Other resolutions adopted urged:
Mississippi and Ohio water outlets to
the Gulf
State and local tax on incomes in lieu
of the present general property tax.
Upward revision of tariff rates on ag-
ricultural products and immediate in

tariff upon their goods.
Rebuke to Moses Is Cheered.
Federal financial participation in the
building of secondary or farm-to-r11ar-
ket highways; also that States extend
their rural road program by allocating
more of their gasoline and vehicle taxes
to farm to-market highways.
The closing session was livened by an
address delivered by DR.. Arthur w. Gil
bert of Boston, commissioner of agri-
culture for Massachusetts,. DR.. Gilbert
drew prolonged cheering from the con-
vention when he rebuked Senator
George Moses of New Hampshire for
his widely quoted remark on Western
tariff insurgent Senators. Senator
Moses called them sons of wild jack
asses"
There is only one place for such
Senator to go. and I hope he's hearing
my words over the radio" declared DR..
Gilbert, land that is to the political
discard"

bounced around the table. Every
