NFO NEWS Loyal Burkh* Ider, chairman of the St. Joseph County NFO. was in charge of the regular monthly meeting when it met September IS. at the Noi th Liberty Community Building. Myron Tyler, area grain chairman from Portt r County, was there and explained the grain program. The NFO Grain Bank has set a minimum of $1.50 on corn, $3.00 on soybeans, and $2.00 on wheat. The NFO is advising all members to store and hold, and to place one-half of their production in the NFO Grain Bank. It wouli be better if all gram w< re signed into the Grain Bank, but some members will not be able to do this. Some are not eligible for government loans. Those who can take

government loans should do so and then place the entire crop into the Grain Bank. If you must sell at harvest, please, get in touch with your local NFO grain board before harvest as to know what is expected of you. Signup in the Grain Bank is mandatory. because NFO must have away to feed into the market sufficient grain to protect the members. All grain must be sold at target price, and all Giain Bank production will participate in these target sales. Volume signup will make these goals possible. All Grain Bank production will be sold for export shortly before harvest it it has not been marketed before. The members heard a tape by Oren Lee Stahley. National President. His comments were as follows: "We have arrived at the crossroads. All farmers m”«t decide now whether they want to stand un and be count* i or Whether they will allow corporauoii.> u> diaempl a take over of

agriculture. Those corporations are interested only in large tracts of land, and this land can bi come available only through low farm prices. Farmers do not have to take low prices if they don't want too. They have the production and they have it first. There is no substitute for food. All fanners have to do is join NFO, bargain together and sell together. All they have to do is adopt a policy, "No price - No Production" This policy was adopted at the Iles Moines meeting. where 35,000 farmers attended. It was the biggest farm meeting in history. They also voted to hold an "all commo iity holding action," and to make a stand for iconomic justice at the marketplace. This is a realistic stand, b«-cause farmers have a LEGAL Right to HOLD production for a price as does every merchant on Main Street. Supply and demand will not d» liver a fair price to farmers.

Statistics are being released to keep prices down. Crop estimates almost always predict big crops. Processors and trade people use these statistics to drive commodity prices down. Everyone in NFO is being ask<*d to sign new members. Non-mi'mbei s formally join to be a part of this crusade to save agriculture. Meat chairman, Liwerence Snyder, said that NFO is now signing Meat Supply Contracts with processors. It is most urgent that you send in your meat reports to him for 3 months period. Edith H. Snyder Ihiblicity Chairman
