PAGE TWO U.S. 6.6, MEET IS CALLED BY UL, BURDICK Members and Representatives Of Four Grain Agencies In Confab Tomorrow FARGO MEETING PLACE Fargo, April 11—Members and rep- resentatives of four farmers’ grain sales agencies,of the state are meet- ing here today to form, if possible, one joint: marketing organization for ‘ North Dakota. 'U. L. Burdick, former North Dako- ta director of the United’States Grain Growers, Inc., who proposed the meet- ing, issued the following statement yesterday in which he made these points: ome 1. “The move is aimed at building up the national U. S. G. G.” (United States Grain Grower, Inc.) 2. “There will be ho difficulties on the pooling question.” (This has been the largest difference between the U. S. G. G. in the past.) 3. “All parties concerned have ex- pressed a desire to complete the joiut state organization.” 4. “The agencies which are meet- ‘ing here: the Equity Cooperative Ex- change; the National Wheat Growers; the Northwest Wheat Growers and the U.S. G. G” 5.. “It is proposed to handle graia through any farmers’ agencies avail- able until the U. S. G. G. has market; ing channels of its own.” Mr. Burdick‘s statement follows: “he proposal of the state railroad comfnission to revive the grain in~ spection department which was form- erly a part of that body will also be discussed. This is made necessary by the recent U. S. supreme court decis- ion ‘which invalidated the North Da- kota grain grading act. “The move is aimed at building up the U.S. G. G.—not at tearing it down. The growers of North Dakota will never consent to have the na- tional body turn.the sale of their grain over to commission concerns. The growers of North Dakota demand a. sales agency of the growers. We don’t propose to sit idly by, another year, and wait. ‘We propose action. “The joint state unit—if formed— will affiliate with the national U. S. G. G. as soon as that organization’ es- tablishes a marketing channel and is ready to receive and pay for grain. (Meanwhile the state unit will market grain through. other farmers’ ‘grain marketing agencies, or one jointly es- tablished by the united organization. “We are making no move in the-or- ganization of a state unit that is not approved, by the growers. We must have authority from our. membership to make the merger. So far the’ re- sults coming in from a. statewide ref- erendum are practically. unanimously fon it. yee “The U. 8. G. G. membership will go into the meeting with, an earnest de- sire to affiliate with the other thres organizations. Leaders of these have also expressed, a , desire to form a Joint state body. f “The U. S: G. G. will be represented by both’ state leaders and by state membership, while the other organiza- tions will be represented. by leaders ‘rather than members. 2 “It is hoped that the conference will result in united action among all farm- ers marketing grain in North, Dakota.” | A Thought For Today | —_—_—— I know ‘the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of’ peace, and not of evil, to give you the expected end.—Jeremlah. 29:11.
