Legge said, the chamber has favored the co-operative marketing of farm products. But he added that the attitude of the chamber in recent months has offered “considerable evidence that entirely too many of your members were for the principle of co-opera-tion only so long as it didn’t work.” “Certainly none of you has seen any constructive action on the part of the Chamber of Commerce, with the doubtful exception of a referendum two years ago. looking to a remedy for and permanent improvement in the situation which your own investigators have warned required substantial assistance, if not from you, then from the government.” Legge’s speech climaxed the battle betwen private grain interests, led by Julius Barnes, intimate of President Hoover and chairman of the board of the chamber, and the farm,board. Early in the controversy, the President indicated his wholehearted support of the farm board. taliT church session 1932 Invitation to Federal Council to Be Discussed Conferences on the recent invitation of the Indianapolis Church Federation to the Federal Council of Churches of Christ to hold the quadriennial meeting in Indianapolis in 1932 will be held Friday.
