in industry at every the
of this longer and believe that any the letter
previously published and the printed above offers proof
that we are used IN questioning his feay to his former
of action We of what has brought
about these changes in Senator Wheeer viewpoint resulting
in actions and expressions completely foreign seems
Senator Wheeler whom knew respected and admired
His statement in the letter previously printed well
the one printed above that there isn't farm bloc is of
purely academica indulgence in semanc If he
knew Mr. Cotton at ALL he would know that Mr. Cotton like
all of the Farmers Union membership in Montana does not
need to be told that there organization
and senators into group calling itself the farm bloc
We know that the membership of the Farmers Union
the organized labor bodies of the state recognize the farm
bloc for what Isl coalition reactionary
lower mouse ana he senate claiming TO represent the interests
of American agriculture under the guidance uteage
ONa of the Farm Bureau and Goss of the Grange These
misrepresentation of the the openly
enough allied with the interests only the corporation
commercial farmers and found allied generally speaking
against the interests of the family type the
token they also generally speaking antabor And
have high regard for the Intelligence
to think for instant that he doesn't know all this
In the last session of Senator Wheeler voted
against Commodity Corporation the
roback of prices by the of subsidies and he repeated his
action last week Is that favorng the little people, the
is favorng the large interests which high
prices and low wages? ONeal and Goss opposed subsidies
Is that why Senator Wheeler also opposed Them
movated by his opposition to this administration

what substitute plan for the of initiation has
to offer?

Communists and their dupes Certainly the Montana Farm
Union works in harmony with the organized labor bodies
the the Railroad Botherhoods the
Labor and the Congress Industrial Organizations
Does the senator mean that all of these or av one of them are
dominated by Communists and their dupes? the
Farmers Union would like to have the senator the
ones he so classfes
This argument if dignity his statement by call
smacks of intent desire create dsuny between the
farmers and labor and certainly the that there
time when the need for unity of all classes
urgently required when every possible divide
the great of the people of the country
by native fascist that their power numerically ng
ncan perhaps but thoroughly organized minority may be
enhanced Surely Senator Wheeler does not intend to lend
his ability and influence to these enemies of democracy
The states that he recognizes the dangers
within threatening Institutions and that he intends fight
the principles of liberty by the
He states that he will battle for poca equal
ity glad hear him say that then will
place his influence back of the antipo bill
in the and do all he to force vote it. And
may that if the pollax senators start fill
buster he will fight for rule of cloture to stop the buster
against he did the last congress-
We do not want to be captous but in stating what he
would fight for wish that he had included economic
equality justice the little the principal
detectives program that cannot claim
have the declarations the Constitution until we
accomplish that
We have not discussed the senatorss letters any
of the South Valley County Farmers Union
remarks not be considered by expressing
opinion of that organization
