SEC. JARDINE IS TO RETIRE FROM CABINET Makes Official Announce- ment of His Plans Fol- lowing March 4th W. M. Jardine, Secretary of Ag- riculture, will retire from the Cabi- | net on March 4 and give his time to agricultural activities with par- | ticular emphasis to the cooperative | marketing movement, according to| an announcement received at lo- cal headquarters of the United | States Forest Service. Secretary Jardine has accepted a position as Counsel for the Federat- ed Fruit and Vegetable Growers, with his offices in Washington, D.| C. This is a cooperative organi- zation with headquarters in New | York City and reaches into many States in its business, dealings. In accepting the position with the Federated organization Secretary | Jardine has an understanding that | he will give to it only such time as may be necessary for the con- duct of its business, thus leaving him free to participate in other agricultural activities. Unlimited Freedom Arthur R. Rule, Executive Vice-| President of the Federated Fruit | and Vegetable Growers, in carrying | on the negotiations with Secretary Jardine, said: “The Federated has no desire to monopolize your time | or your effort. We want you to have unlimited freedom in giving to the cooperative marketing move- ment as a whole, the results of your experience and the benefits of the constructive policies which you have so strongly advocated.” In making this announcement, Secretary Jardine said: “I have held the hope that four years in public life is all that would be ex- pected of one who must make a personal sacrifice to perform Fed- eral service. “During the past four years I have consistently held that stab- ilization of agricultural production and prices is our most urgent eco- nomic problem; that sound cooper- ative marketing associations and, stabilization corporations must be the basis of aid extended by the Federal Government; that we should greatly increase our agricul- tural research; and that we must keep the domestic market for the| American farmer, Fought For Principles “I have fought for these princi- ples. Even those who have dif- fered with me on the fundamentals of the farm problem, know I have been sincere, consistent, and de- termined in my stand. I believe that the bill introduced in Congress by Senator McNary will serve as a basis for solving many of the ills which have confronted the farm- ers of the Nation since the War. “While I appreciate deeply the confidence so generously expressed in me, I wish it known that be- cause of obligations to my family and for my own personal interest, I feel I must retire to private life. “I have repeatedly discussed with Mr. Hdover my desire to retire from public service and I have ad- vised with him in my business ne- gotiations. In considering the many proposals which have been present- ed to me I have expressed the wish to remain in Washington in order that I might give to Mr. Hoover and his Administration every pos- sible aid.” ————— ATTENTION!
