A proposal lor establishment of commodity financing through loan lo farmers was indorsed late yestei day by a sulx'Oinmittce The proposal v. us said to provide lor creation hv the government of an agency for di counling farmers' notes, based on age. cultural commodities and live stock paper. This was said to be one im portant step necessary to ameliorate the present situation. A uumber of informal conferences were held yesterday, by delegates said to Us considering proposal of a reso lution indorsing the "farm bloc Is congress. Mr. McDougall, who told of the pait played by his organization in the mar kiting system, asserted it was impos sible "to separate the marketing prob lem from that of production." Officials of the Chicago Board Of Trade know It can prosper only i: gTHin growers prosper. Mr. McDou gall said, and that the board there lore was "Interested in a better and more prosperous production system ." The board or trade favors a si icn tifie agriculture, based on a fifty-year program, "rather than on hand-tj-mouth adjustment to meet temporary troubles." he added. Rapid spread of co-operative eleva tors throughout the gram belt, lie con tinued, was materially assisted by maintenance of an open markpt "In which farmers' elevator companies might comete on equal terms with individual dealers and line eievatm companies." by the efforts of the Chi cago Board of Trade. Fifty-six per cent of grain received at Chicago, he Mid, come from farmers' elevators. "The board of trade." he asserted, "looks on the farm bureau movement as the greatest forward step taken by American agriculture in the last forty years." He said the lM)ard hoped to co oper ate with the rawly created farmers committee in solving marketing prob lems. American agriculture as a whole "could profitably study (actors' that have contributed to the welfare of -California in the face ot general busi ness depression," (5. Harold PoWtdl, general manager of the California fruit tirowers' Kxchunge, said in his address. He asserted success of co operative marketing depended "upon the will of the farmer to co-operate, and development of "a spirit of mu tual confidence and trus" between those i ngaging in the venture Recommendation for construction Oi the St. I.awrenee-t Ireat Lakes Sra terway prpject was voted by the sub committee on waterways transports tlon under the genera! transportation , committee.
