Farm independence
Urged by Grange
Master at Confab

PORTLAND, Ore. Nov. II. CUP)
-Simplification of the National
Farm Act, with greater farmer con-
troll and elimination of compulsory
regimentation was urged today by
National Grange Master Louis j
Taber. who convened the 72nd an
nual session of his organization.
tThe farmers of America will
never be satisfied with a perman-
ent program based on continuous
governmental control" Taber said
in his annual address. We must
maintain for agriculture the farm
er's traditional independence and
freedom of action"
He said national recovery would
have been fastened had it not been
for "the fact that the farmer is
receiving too small a share of the
wealth he creates" He attributed
the failure Of the government to
keep farm prices at a reasonable
level TO the refusal of nature,
foreign producers, and foreign and
domestic consumers 10 cooperate

Of grid games.
In all probability, Okeson will

the "toe" be used in games, then
some action may be taken. If the

cannot rule in favor or against it.
1t is the idea of the rules COM

extremely doubtful that action will
be taken against the"toe."
However, pressure may be
brought to bear by such well

coach at Stanford, who is deadly
set against such device. Thornsin
