dries Holman Interested

Finds It Necessary to Join Most Battles Along With Other Agricultural Groups.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, March 15.—One of the most effective m lobbies operating here represents a single product and|! derivatives, but a most essential one<—milk. The National Co-operative Milk Producers federation is potent in congress, with government agencies, and in enlisting other politically powerful agricultural groups, largely, perhaps, because of the energetic gentleman who conducts its legislative” and governmental business here as its

| secretary : Tes W. Holman, a na-

tive Mississippian with a newspaper background in Texas in his early days, knows his Way around Washington from over : quarter-century of experience. He is $6 now, but still unflagging, a stocky fellow, brisk and bustling.

* “Our organization is the Rainbow division,” he commented, with

added, in almost the same breath: . “However, it has been necessary for us to get into nearly every maJor agricultural battle since 1921.”

Seeking to Pierce Ceilings

- He and his organization are now the thick of the big fight against President Roosevelt’s anti-inflation program and other new deal fronts a part of the “big four” alliance which includes, besides his own cooperative organization, the National Council of Co-operatives, as well as two general farm organizations, the American Farm Bureau federation and the National Grange.

“In all my time here I've never buttonholed a member and asked him to vote for a bill,” he said. “If I find a group of members who are interested in the same thing I am, then I sit down with them and plan a campaign.” Which, perhaps, is more effective.

Organized in 1916

The milk producers’ federation is one of the younger farm organizatioins, but now the largest handling a single product. It was organized in 1916, bringing together many individual milk - producing associatilons. Formation of a common front in a national organization was the direct outgrowth of the milk strikes in various parts of the country last year. Today there are 70 groups in: the federation, with 280,000 to 300,000 members. The federation opened offices here in 1920, taking over the’ old John Wanamaker home, which it now owns, It operates on a budget of $80,000
