(Continued from Page One)
lied with each other In efforts to
eheer loudest for the AAA.
Opening the convention, Robert
■on said:
"It seems proper first of all to
aay that we are farmers from the
cotton belt and the tobaoco belt
and the wheat belt and from the
oom belt and that this trip is of
our own planning.
"We left the plow handles to come
hare, and are paying our own way,
and are not the pawns of high
powered lobbyists."
A grizzled and walrus moutached
farmer from Georgia stood at the
edge of the gallery shouting. "All
you Georgia crackers come up
way. We got no governor
we’re here anyhow.”
The reference was to Governor
Talmadge of Goergia who has
vigorously assailed the Roosevelt
administration for its policies.
No voice could be heard at the
press table from any person object
ing to remarks of the Georgia
termer.
