Announcement by the electorate ,is planned to be made on Jan. 1, three days before the election, the board having decided upon this plan with the statement that its purpose was to eliminate charges of fraud in selecting those entitled to a vote. The board also has decided to seek a change in the law defining those entitled to vote, but if successful, the change would be of no effect until next year's election' Contests Develop. With the election drawing near, several contests have developed, and campaigns are being conducted in behalf of the various candidates. S. L. Taylor, of Boonville, vice-president of the board, nnd Thomas Grant, of Crown Point, a board member, are mentioned for the presidency to succeed Samuel J. Miller, of this city. Charles F. Kennedy. Indianapolis recording secretary; William F. Jones, Fairmount, financial secretary and treasurer, and Robert G. Porter, Edinburg. are candidates for re-election. These officers will be chosen by the board meeting after the election of eight board members, to represent, the odd-numbered districts in the state. In some of the districts, there appears no contest. G. M. Kemper, of Columbus, first district; Harry Moberly, of Shelby ville, third district; E. E. Phillips, of Walton, ninth district, and John Isenbargerof North Manchester, fifteenth district, are out for re-election, with no announced opponents. Breakc Seeks Re-Election.

The Thirteenth district also has three candidates in the field, Charles L. Smith, of Montpelier, seeking reelection; J. E. Green, of Muncie, a cattle breeder, and Will L.

MARKET COMMITTEE TO AWAIT REPORTS The Farmers' Marketing Committee of Seventeen, which has been in session in Cbicago for three days, adjourned tonight until Feb. 14 to await reports of a number of experts and economists who are digging out fundamental facts regarding the marketing of grain. The next meeting will be held in Kansas City. The cooperative plan of marketing upon which the committee has been working since October was put in semifinal shape during this week's meeting, and the committee reached an agreement on a number of the fundamental principles involved. It. refused to make any statement for publication. It is generally believed that an agreement has been reached on every principle except the method of financing grain marketing, because the experts employed by the committee are all engaged in gathering information relative to crop movement stabilizing the flow of grain to market, possibility of price stabilization, and other questions, all of which are closely related to the matter of financing a rov marketing system.

Howard and Gray Silver, the American Farm Bureau Federation's Washington representatives, appeared before the joint committee of Agriculture and of Banking and Currency of the United States Senate and advanced measures embodying five definite planks in the American Farm Bureau Federation's immediate credit relief program They are as follows: Regulatory power over farmers' cooperative marketing associations should be in the hands of the United Stales Department of Agriculture rather than the. Federal Trade Commission. The farmers co-operative marketing movement must not be i hindered by the provisions of the Sherman law, enacted to control trusts and not, with any intent to curb co-operation for the benefit of the public at large. The Federal Reserve Bank Act should be amended so as to provide preferential rat,es for loans for productive purposes over loans for speculative purposes. The Warehousing Act should be extended so as to serve the needs of both individuals and cooperative associations, and there should be based upon it a rural credits plan which will enable the farmer, individually or collectively, to market his crops in an orderly fashion. The Federal Land Bank System should be ex1 ended to provide farmers with personal credit, for such purpose as buying improved seed, live stock, machinery and equipment, on the f-ame general plan as real estate loans are now provided. As a result of last week's Washington conference, bills will be drafted immediately designed to furnish legislation as outlined.

Members of the farm association of Harrison township decided to make a social as well as a business affair. The "eats" were furnished by the women members of the association. The show, with an accompanying lecture, was given by Rev. Alfred Backus of the Grace M. E. church of Richmond. Routine business and talks by the county agent and Theodore Davis, chairman of the county association, occupied a part of the program. Rev. Backus was secured by the county agent to give a talk on the Pilgrims, illustrated by colored stereopticon slides. This was reserved for the final number of the program. Rev. Backus's explanatory talk held the interest of his audience to the last. The business meeting consisted only of the reading and approval of the minutes of the previous meeting, j presentation by the county agent the plan for co-operative btiying of spring fertilizers, and an address by Davis. Recommends Economy An appeal for a greater use of the county organization was one of the features of Mr. Davis' speech. "The local township associations have had hunting notices printed in the Richmond papers separately, and at their own expense," he said. "This could have been handled by the county association just as well for the whole REMOVAL NOTICE We will move from our present location. 33 N. 9th St..
