The union was the result of a year’s agitation, started by Harry Wilkins, farmhand, inventor and dreamer. On two sides, along the black- boards” of a district schoolhouse, like pupils in an old-fashioned spell- ing match, the farmers and their employes lined up not long ago to talk of their ‘problems. Both sides agreed that farm production must be increased, that | land speculation must be abolish: | ed and that hours must be regulated | to meet harvest demands. They pre dicted acreage will be cut a third this year and that land values and | prices are about ta fall. ‘The employers protested that the union would cut working hours and lower production. The farmhands | hold that with shorter working hours | and more men to the 100 acres there | would be greater production thru in- tensive effort. | No agreement was reached. | - | “Trotsky” a Guest at British Ball| LONDON, England, March 12.
