modify.
The Farm Board at a meeting in
Chicago on July 26 and ~ conferred
with officials Of farmers grain CO.
operatives with a view to the organiza-
ton of a farmers national grain cor
poration. The creation of such cor
poration with capital stock Of $20,-
100000 is planned. The cooperative So
cieties and farmer-owned and farmer
controlled cooperative institutions for
the marketing of crops are to own and
control it. It Is to be eligible for loans
under the farm relief act. The cor
poration will have authority to provide
central marketing facilities and sales
services for the handling and diStribu-
ton of all types of wheat and other
grains on behalf of its stockholding
members. 1t may conduct sterilization
operations in open grain market with
the approval of the Farm Board. 1t
will have power to buy grain from Its
member stockholders and sell the same
for its own account. It may lease, pur-
chase or construct storage and other
facilities. It may make loans to CO.
operative companies and pools to finance
the products of farmer members. It Is
also provided that no liability shall rest
on the stockholding members beyond
the value of their stock subscriptions.
The general purpose of the corporation
will be to supply a cen gal national mar
keting organization eor all farm CO.
operative societies whose members are
engaged in the production of grain.
There is no doubt that the organiza-
ton and efficient management of such
corporation will have considerable in
fluence in stabilizing the wheat market
and improving marketing conditions
generally.

Intended to make the tariff effective on
farm products and to provide him with
q better marketing system. The Nc
Nary-Haugen bill sought to maintain
the domestic price above the world
price by the exclusion of foreign i'm
ports, and through the purchase of the
domestic surplus and exporting 1t abroad
and dumping it on the world market at
whatever price could be obtained. The
losses sustained through foreign sales
were to be recouped by an assessment
Of fee or tax upon each unit of farm
products produced in the United States.
The fatal objection to the McNary-
Haugen plan was the equalization fee.
It was urged with great force that the
fee without any limitation in amount
could not legally be levied by the board.
During the presidential campaign Of
1928 the present administration prom
ised to call a special session Of Con-
