FARMERS REJECT. POLITICAL LINE-JP WITH LABORITES {Continued From First Page.) farmer organizations representing about four million farmers, and the charge is made that the four men in the delegation which went to the White House are representative of only a small and radical faction of American farmers. Certainly the gathering of farmers who claim the right to speak for the agricultural interests of the country is an imposing one. The list includes the National Grange which is active in the Northern States, and the farmers’ Educational and Co-opera- tive Union, which has a large mem- bership in thirty-five Western and Southern States; the American Farm Bureau Federation, the International Farm Congress, the National Farm- ers’ Congress, the National Associa- tion of Milk Producers, and the Cot- ton Growers Conference. REAL FARMERS A UNIT AGAINST GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP Spokesmen for the above organs|wth socialism is vations make it clear that with the] cealed. tion of the few farmers and|penduium tends to swing against gamed to speak for radicals among the farmers, the men who till the soll @re a unit against Government own- ership or operation of railroads, They j see a few would-be spokesmen of the farmers linked up with the Non- Partisan League and the Plumb Plan League for the purpose of making it appear that the farmers want a con- tinued operation of the railroads by the Government. Concretely, they do not believe an increase in freight rates would follow the return to private control because the Government is now showing a] surplus in railroad operation and it Nincrease were necessary, the farmer isn't as much concerned about thdt as he ts about efficient distribution. Abstractly, the farmers’ organiza- tions declare their whole protest is against nationalization of industry in any form and their pfesent con- vention in Washington is to impress socialistic elements everywhere that théy cannot count on the support of the farmers ENTIRE MOVE WRAPPED UP 'IN NATIONAL POLITICS ‘The whole thing is more or less wrapped up in national politics.

So, both abstractly and concretely, they are fighting tooth and nail for a postponement ot the whole issue beyond the next elec- tion at least. Obviously they would work for the election of a Congress that would be pledged to an extension of the period of Government operation. WRERE FARMERS WOULD STAND IN THE CAMPAIGN. on the other hand, would «4 to carry the mat- ter into the campaign support Con- gressional candidates who would be pledged to return the railroads at once to their owners. Pressure is being brought to bear by the farmers on the Republican Congress to take the responsibility and go forward with the legislation, but pressure will be correspondingly brought by the railroad employees to ‘The mpe Mother! get genuine ‘“Californi ure, The farmers’ organizations are meoting here and adopting resolutions designed to show that millions of farmers want the railroads turned back to their owners are rep- wit Overcoats the statute books.
