USE EXISTING
ORGANIZATIONS
GOVT. URGES
In keeping with" the expressed !
recommendations by the ' federal j
farm board arid the National Wool'
Marketing .corporation that w ool
glowers should build up and sup-j
port existing cooperatives, the turg-j
est existing wool cooperatives in tin
west are exuerioneinir suhst initial
growth under the- new' JiaUoimll
w oo I m a rk e i i j) p la n; .
Tlio Montana Wool Cooperative
association . is expecting to handle
half of the wool of U)o state of
Montana. U is understood that
between five ami six million pounds
of wool are now signed up. Tho
Clair Wool Marketing corporation
has signed ann.uon fleeces in I'tah.
including half of tho Jericho, ao
e.umulallon. In TeAUfj and New
M.exico cnoiwra lives have- signed
about two million, pounda of wool
up to March tsl. .'.
In the Noilhwcsl the . I'aeiric.
Coojierative Wool Growers have
over seven million pounds of wool
signed al. the. present time. Tills
organization, whose .headquarters
an at i'orthind, Oregon, operates
over five states, has been in ex
isience nearly ten years, and was
one of the few regional associa
tions ready to qualify as a unit of
Iho Nutional Wool Miirkellng cor
poraHoii. 'Che farm board and the National
Wool Market ing corporation has
repeaiedly urged growers to join j
existing cooperatives if they are to
receive full benefits of tlte agri-'
cultural marketing act. A recent t
:rka from Hie Imail'tuarters of
the National WWl Marlieltng corpora-ion,
nays:
"Tlte National Wool Marketing
corporation would rather see ex-
btlui." wool cooperatives strength-
o-ivd with greater membership
than t't have many new ones i
tormed."
This f in line with a recent i
stalemei't to tlie press, made by i
Chairman Legge of th federal!
faun board, when h said: '
"Too many scattered eooppra lives
make for hard handling and dis
organization. We want fewer and
more couserva ( 1 ve eoopera i ive." j
"W. F. Schilling, mem bet of the:
farm board, recently sahl at tlie
time he visited the Norlliwest: '
"M.iltions for cooperation, hul
mil one thin dime for waning -ftp'-ratives,
Nt for one minute
v.fl! ttii countenance jealous com
petition between ma rket Ing groups'
in tho mine lines. We cannot use
government money to ufd farmers
in fighting each oilier. And you'
leaders mtist cooperultt amomj
yourselves." ;
Carl William-', farm board iik-iii- '
her. mad this statement, nt a
meeting Iff at Halon Itouge;
"I want to emphasize this, and
I want you to curry the nmigi.
liaek home; that farmers shtttild
get in toiteh with MrginilKi-d coop-
erative movein-ents rather than at
tempt to organize new ones."
"It is only good, sound business
that existing cooperatives .stum Id
bo used rather than that new, in
experienced ones should be organ
ifcnd in a teiriiory adequately Krv
ed by experienced, regional .ool
eoopera ti veil such thf 1'actfic
Coeperatlve AVoot Growers in the
Northwest," says K. A. Ward, ex
ecutive dlrwtor of the National
Wool Marketing corporation nnd
secretary of the wool advisory
eommttfee. "Selling up pew, un
tried local cooperatives results in
a duplication of machinery, dup
lication of effort, duplication at
expensR and tbn creation of harm
ful competition' be! ween' growers
groups In their efforts to obtain
wool, llm expense . and .ill-effects
of which are all borne by th wool
grower. A.ny new eooperative will
hn.vrt to learn by experience what
thn. older cooperatives have learn
ed tn Hie same school, Klrong,
regional cooperatives will givo the
Wool growers a majority of con
(rol In their marketing operations
which will not bo the case with a
large nnntber of small, weak; units
even though united in a, single
sale agi-ney,"
