experience wrote one as follows.
81 was very interested in the idea
of a Buyers Cooperative as suQ-
gested in the columns of the Pro-
ducers News last week. A thing
like that is needed badly now with
conditions as they are. | have
talked the idea over with several
of my neighbors and l believe that
over a thousand dollars worth Of
co7operatOrS certificates could be
sold in this part of the county. Do
I understand that these certificates
could be traded in for merchandise
at any time? By use of such an
arrangement farmers could do a
lot of trading among themselves.
There is very little money among
the farmers, but surely your CO..
operative idea is very practical
and would, it seems to me, be very
beneficial"
There were other letters to the
same effect which indicates the
time is ripe for some definite ae
ton against profiteering and hi
lacking in this section of the cOun-
try.
In further explanation Of the
idea it might be said: First a vol
untary cooperative association be
organized among those interested;
president and secretary-treasurer
. and board of directors be elected
: to serve at the pleasure of the CO.
2 operators, either would have au-
7 thority to select a manager, who
b would buy the stock and carry on
the business. The cO-Operator
would draft a very simple set Of
bylaws. Membership cards would
be issued which would cost one
dollar apiece which would entitle
Y the holder to all of the benefits
o of the cooperative. Then coop
, orators certificates in denOmina'
S tons of SIS, $40, and S25 would be
sold to the member, to provide the
capital to purchase the stock. The
: certificates would be redeemable at
! any time by giving thirty days mo-
I tice if required by the cooperative
s in commodities at wholesale cOs'
s plus freight and distribution ex
T pense. The co7operators certltF
n Gates would be on sale at all time
e and one could be exchanged Tor
q meat, poultry, butter, eggs, gram
, etc., and later redeemable In mer
chandise as the co-operator de
= sires. The members could pur
chase goods at cost plus frelgns
a and handling charge. Non mem
o bers would have to pay for gOoO
e on a regular basis but at a yer
le reasonable profit. If sufficient c.
n operators certificates could be SOLO
. big bankrupt stocks could be pun
chased and retailed to memDen
for less than half of what ne nov
paws for such mercrandise, thu'
effecting great savings. Farmer
s could trade farm products for me- e
y Shandise on bash basis, thus 9ull'
" ing up a fine market. The redeem

gunners' mates were not promoted.
Negro workers enlisted in the navy
were forced to do the dirtiest,
hardest jobs. They were separat-

into special groups, similar to the
labor battalions in the army. The
Negro enlisted men were used by
the navy as longshoremen, load
