Mr. Slemp’s letter is in re- ply to one written to him by Mr. Halvorson outlining the views of the North Dakota conference on relief for the agriculturists of the northwest. Mr, Slemp states in his letter that he was greatly interested to read Mr. Halvorson’s views of the agricultural jituation, “which as you know is re- ceiving the very earnest and careful considération of the president and I ‘shall be glad to-bring to his atten- tion the suggestions you make. ‘He is always glad to know the thought of those who have made a study of the situation and will be ppreciative of your interest in let- ting him know of your judgment.” Short End to Farmer.
