"Several well known farm bloc and farm or ganization leaders are among them," says an article in the Oregom'nn this morning, "and no doubt most of the rank and file are really farmers; but a number of unemployed men who are eating at a mission kitchen have attached themselves to Hie .party. One of the members has been identified as a member of a party that traveled from Minneapolis in the private car of a millionaire manufacturer. Not a fanner, but just a-anti-IIoover politician." One wonders about the rank uid file.- Are they fanners or politicians? ."i ; Wei don't know, but we are inclined to Mievc that an in justice is done by labeling this group of Hoover opponents as farmers.
