FARM SPOKESMAN ~ AFTER WALLACE ! - LT : | Beoretary’s Dismissal Of J. M, . Burns Because Of Latter’s : Testimony Called “‘Un- | derhanded.”’ , | . 'ACTION IS CAMPAIGN ISSUE ' S 8 !Department’s Laxity In Administering Packers And Stockyards Act ; - Alleged.,

. Washington, D. C., October.—Secretary Wallace's alleged favoritism to commission - merchants who were practicing fraud on farmers and his unsatisfactory enforcement of the Packers and Stockyards Act have been brought once more into the limelight by his attack on Ben C. Marsh, managing director of the Farmers' National Council. It is expected that the coms plaints against the_ laxity of the Department’s administration of this law, which was intended for the protection of farmers and producers of livestock, will be a big issue during the remainder of the campaign, especially in the Northwest, ; :

AMr. Marsh complained in a letter he wrote to Secretary Wallace characterizing the latter's removal of John M. Burns from the legal staff of the Packers and Stockyards Division of the Department of Agriculture as “one of the most underhanded and sneaking cases of official terrorism in our country's history.” Marsh charged that Burns was really dismissed because ha told a Senate. Committee that officials under Secretary Wallace “have administered the law in the interest of certain marketing agencies to the injury of the producing public.” Burns alsu expressed the opinion in his testl mony before the Committee that “it the Department of Agriculture had exerted its influence to bring about competition in the stockyards rather than to stifle it, it would have been worth many millions of dollars annually to the Hvestock producers of this country.” Burns Dismissed For Testifying - Burns was discharged, and Secre. tary Wallace now practically admits that nis offense was that he testified 80 [rankly to the Senate Committee, “The Burns case,” wrote Secretary Wallace to Mr. Marsh, “was handled with far greater consideration than be had any right to expect.” Origh nally Secretary Wallace explained tha dropping- of Burns as due fo lack of sufficient funds for the operation of the Puckers and Stockyards Divislon.i That is what the records of the De.! partment of Agriculture weré made to show. : ; !

It is believed that what angered Becretary Wallace more than anything elge in the testimony given by Burm'g was the latter’s statement that, when auditors reported sixteen members or! the St. Paul and Minneapolis livestochk exchanges as practicing fraud againsj farmers who sent livestock to them, Secretary Wallace declined to take any action agalnst them but turned the matter over to the exchanges ‘“for such corrective action as they may seq! fit.”. It Secretary Wallace had denied‘ that, he would have been confronted with the fact that the legisliature of Minnesota said practically the same thing in a formal resolution and that Jacol Preuss,the Republican Governor, backed up the veracity of the legisla. ture by approving the resolution. Wallace Doesn’t Mest Issue Persons who have read Mr. Marsh’s statement and Secretary Wallace's re. ply cannot see that the Secretary ham disproved the charges against him by saying that Mr. Marsh did not tell the truth. His tactics of having the official record show that Burns wq: dismised as a matter of economy, by way of reducing the force, and then admitting under pressure that Burng was discharged because of what he told the Senate Committee is looked upon by some persons as possibly justh fying Mr. Mash’s adjectives, “under: handed” and “sneaking.” The inch dent calls to mind the fact that, somsg time ago, Walter Y. Durand, formerly of the Federal Trade Commission, gaid, “The facts have been so shroud, ed in secrecy by the Secretary and his statements regarding them sa meagre and blind, that the farmerg and the public are still in the dark.”

URGES DAVIS’ ELECTION TOO PREVENT DEADLOCK I\‘ew%YT)rk, October.—The New York Times, which is ordinarily friendly te| the Republican party, is urging a heavy vote for John W. Davis to pre vent the election from going to Con gress, with attendant delay and con tusion. The Times says this question| is of much interest that it ought t 4 induce voters to cast their ballots sg that the result will be decisive. “But it is possible to show mathe | matically and politically that this in terast would be most surely preserved by a turning of detached voters in thg doubtful States to Mr. Davis,” says thy Times. “Even if they went to Mr Coolldge, they would not certainly givy ‘him a majority. * But they demon ! steatably would glve My, Davis & ma - > WW' e ‘;....—J Methodist Chureh, . : J.

. PROMISE TO FARMERS o At Kendallville Address Friday Night Dr. MeCulloch Touehed On Reliel For the Farmers of the State, . Thp principles of co-operative marketing of farm products are- identical ;in many respects with successtul marketing of maunfactured products, - which just mean putting an article on the market in a sane orderly manner after it has been produced in the ‘most efficient and ‘économical way.” said Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch in his speech at Kendallville Friday night “The manufacturer can do that be‘cause he has his business thoroughly crganized with the different- depariments for the purpose of buying raw materials and building his goods. Then he put his goods on-the niarket at the time and place where markeét requirements are sufficient to allow him a price which will assure him cost of production together with a profit on his investment. “There are several phases of cooperative marketing of farm products which if I were a practical farmer 1 might mention; but as lam not quite that but am financially interesied I will quote several of the best farmers of Indiana who I think are considered the best authorities on co-operat-ive marketing = L . “First maintain soil fertility so we can grow a maximum crop -at each planting; this we have done fairly well in Indiana so the records show. Secondly growing the product -for which there is a market demand and then grading that product in such a way as to meet the taste of tlh" market on which we expect to sell Then comes standardizing on a few crops to which our soil and other conditions are hest adopted and finally putting them on the market at the time and place there is a demand and only in such amounts as will meet that market's requirements at that time. |

“1 belive this ¢an be done by a strong organization among the farmers. I am not going. into detail about how it should be done for T am willing to leave that to the broad minded farmers of Indiana. We need in Indiana a law dealing particularly with the co-operative marketing of farm products and I stand for such a law similar in character to those of other States having successful co-operative marketing laws. Then the farmers of Indiana may enjoy the privilege of marketing their product in 'the same and orderly manner which has proven to be such a benefit in other places.
