Approval was given measures pro-
viding for farm relief; for elimination
Of duplication of courses at state
schools; the scrip bill; changes in
poor relief laws; the repeal of the alb
sent voters law; and ratification of
the child labor amendment to the u.
S. constitution. Action was urged In
resolutions adopted at the close Of
the convention. A resolution request
ing that the federation president ap-
point a standing committee on reso-
lutions SO that more consideration
may be given to matters presented
for the organizations approval. was
adopted.
The resolutions, In part, follow:
Whereas, the Frazier-Lemke bill
before congress will bring needed re-
lief to the farming population, and
whereas, we believe that the purchas-
ing power of the producer must be
restored, therefore, be it resolved.
that We urge immediate passage of
the FraZier-Lemke bill.
I'VE commend Senate Bill No. ITO,
introduced by Senator j. H. Burk-
hart of Ward county, an act direct
ing the board of administration to
eliminate duplication and to co-ordi-
nate forces in study in our educa-
tional institutions in accordance with
the Peik report of 1880.
I'VE also commend Senate Bill No.
PIT, introduced by the committee of
education, bill for an act to estab-
fish state equalization fund and to
provide for distributing one-half
thereof among the school districts of
the state in proportion to the number
of school children therein, to dis
tribute the remaining one-half among
the one-room rural schools of the
state which are unable to raise Suf-
ficient money to defray the minimum
cost thereof, plus the amount re-
quired to be paid for high school
tuition.
Seek Better Markets
"We declare ourselves as support
ing all forms of legislation designed
to aid the marketing of farm pro-
duce. We commend the legislature
for the introduction of the scrip bill
as temporary relief measure and
urge its passage.
Whereas, the Children's Bureau
was created by legislative act in 1923,
and whereas, it has been in opera
ton during the last 10 years with
marked success, making itself felt in
the field of social service, rendering
invaluable assistance and guidance to
workers, institutions and agencies
within the state, therefore, be it re-
solved that continued support be
given this department.
Whereas, continued drouth. with
total crop failure in many parts of
the state and continued business stag
nation with increasing unemployment
has entirely wiped out all accumu-
lated reserves of cash and food sup
plies, thus throwing many of our cit
liens into situation Of dire distress,
and,
Whereas, our governor, William
LANCER, though on bed of sickness
and beset with the extraordinary du-
ties Of the legislature session, made
relief Of this distressing situation his
first consideration by encouraging the
set-up Of an agency for the early re-
lief of our destitute citizens.
Therefore. be it resolved that we
commend the governors foresight
and thank him for his early action
in bringing this needed relief"

and contributed to the success Of the
convention.
