Following attacks on the board by
Pennsylvania's two senator's after
Philadelphia dairy wholesalers had
charged a cooperative with indis-
criminately cutting prices. williams
said 1t was only natural the commits

louder as farmer competitors absorb

The growing conflict between COOP
eratives and private dealers has been
recognized for months by the board,
with former Chairman Alexander
Legge and his successor, James G.
Stone, charging the trade with at
tempting to prevent formation Of the
farmer organizations.
After demands had been made last
week for a more definite sterilization
wheat sales policy, Chairman Stone
accused the grain trade Of inspiring
the widespread agitation.
Williams intimation Of increased
conflict came after three southern
cotton exchanges had requested a
new statement of policy for handling
that commodity during the new crop
year.
The Pennsylvania Ease brought the
