Resolutions condemning the pro- gram and opposing munitions manu- facture and war preparedness activi- ties were adopted by the delegates after introduction by the women’s group. Milo Reno, president of the national organisation, was to speak late Tues- day. Although an attempt to wrest con- trol of appointment of committees from officers of the association was defeated Monday night, Senator Harry Peterson of Plaza, first vice president and presiding officer, as- ity jserted the fight to prevent what he termed “the Communistic element” from gaining control of the conven- tion was not over. Regulars Enforced Peterson stated that the “regulars” of the association would be “enforced” for the election of officers and adop- tion of resolutions at Tuesday night's meeting. “It would ruin our- organization to lose. control -to the Communistic group,” Peterson said. Many members of the Farmers Na- tional Committee for Action were present at the convention and. were advocating demands for freedom to sell without interference from cred- itors, cancellation of back seed and feed loans and bushel for bushel pay- ment of 1935 seed loans. Delegates to the convention ex- pressed almost unanimous opinion that the state’s wheat crop is “ruined” with only salvaging prospects. Senator Peterson stated, however, that oats, barley and flax crops were “splendid.” The first test of strength between a ” and “reds” came dur- ing the Monday afternoon session when a motion was offered which would provide for naming of commit- his| tees, including one on resolutions, claimed the permit was issued in vio- | : i a 3 li Ef tug E : HG gue Tss es & § £92 B58 3? a gs¢ 52 Ft Ma sae a : i FSe “EE HG ab ae : E i i i Be i [ i B g E ? 4 : 5 é a if B & a i i E i s & the floor instead of by Peter- Meeting Recessed ‘The meeting was recessed, however, before a vote was taken, following a barrage of talks favoring the motion. At Monday's session officers and other leaders friendly to the adminis- tration had rallied their forces and in short order defeated the motion and gave Peterson the power of ap- pointing the committees, which will be organized Tuesday when resolu- tions will be prepared and other busi- ness transacted. The vote was 120 to 59. . Addressing Monday night’s session, State Treasurer John Gray charged (Continued on Page Two) son. RATHER, DAUGHTER SLAIN BY LIGHTNING Strasburg, N.
