Must Be Considered
MEETS WITH OPPOSITION
Former N. D. Politician Takes
Leading Part in Des
Moines Meeting

Des Moines, Ia, May 4.-tR--A ma
tion-wide farm marketing strike
similar to the one which held atten-
ton In the midwest last fall, appar-
emily was hanging In the balance
Thursday as the National Farm Holi-
day convention resumed its second
day Of elaboration.
The question was thrown into dis
pute by A. G. Townley Of st. Paul
Mimi, in speech in which he de-
clared that the holiday association
in declaring strike, must take into
account the needs Of the laborine
classes as well as the welfare Of the
farmer.
Arnold Gilberts, Wisconsin men,
Der Of the resolutions committee, said
the committeeman would recommend
a general farm strike to begin May 10
A resolution, favoring such action, had
been adopted he said.
In considering a plan by which the
farmer will obtain the cost Of produc-
ton for his produce, he must also in.
sure the cost OF production to mil
workers, factory hands, miners, and
railroad employees, Townley told the
convention.
"You can win this strike II you car
provide a plan by which all Of these
people can pay you the cost OF produc-
tion," he said.
Any plan which does not take these
people into account Is doomed to fail
IRE, he added, and declared that the
only workable method was the issu.
lnce of scrip money backed by thu
salue Of farm produce.
A group of Minnesota holiday mem
bers opposed the Townley propose
and attempted without success to in
terrupt him during its presentation
They declared privately that they ia
vored an initiation plan based on
sound United States currency.
President Milo Reno said the holi-
day movement was. progressing &C.
lively in 20 states, centering in Iowa
where it originated year ago.
When queried concerning the ex-
tent to which the proposed strike
would spread Reno replied that II
would be nationwide" In an effort
to withhold all farm products from
the channels of distribution.
The convention approved q mess
age sent by President Reno to Sen
ator B. E. Smith, chairman Of the
senate agriculture committee, which
declared whether a national farm
strike will be called depends or
whether cost of production is nclud-
ed in the farm relief bill"
The message was dispatched as the
result of one from John A. Simpson
national president Of the Farmers
Union, which said vote was expected
Thursday on the farm bill.
Walter Singler Of Shicoton, Wis.
asked if this telegram did not near
that the strike would be called OF
if the cost of production feature was
included in the farm bill.
In reply, President Reno stated that
inclusion Of the cost Of production
feature would bring into public con-
gressional hearing the right Of the
farmer for cost of production for hi
products. $780,
1T Is the first time in the history
of the past 10 years that we have beer
able to get this into the record" Reno
said.
