"The fight vpon- which ws are! a noat to. enter is ana that win necessitate courage, Mr. Miller said. Taa report baa xone out that -It Is the poor man who is fighting lor oleomaxgarine. This is not true. It is the tleomar garin lntacests that are attempt ing to thwart th dairymen In hop of obtaining larger profits. "This la a time for militancy if wo are to protect our own inter- eats. Our causa Is righteous and wo should win." James 0Shea of Roberts, Mon tana, national secretary of the jrarmers' union, reviewed briefly tho activities of the Montana leg islature In Imposing an oleomar marlne tax, CShea charged that more than tire million pounds ot oleomar garine was consumed in Oregon in 1930, with the result that ap proximately S 0,0 00 cows were displaced. "What you dairymen should do." continued O'Shea, "Is to circulate counter referendum pe titions increasing tho oleomar garine tax to $1.50 a pound." Another suggestion was offered that oleomargarine be banned from the atate -altogether. Importance- of Cow Is Stressed - Tho Importance of the dairy cow was stressed by. J. D. Mlckle, state dairy and food commis sioner. "The dairy cow is the mort gage lifter and bread basket of the country." said Mlckle. "The dairymen are paying 1$ per cent of the taxes, and they certainly are entitled to protection. If we are to win this fight we must have a militant and courageous organisation. The failure or suc cess of th referendum Is up to the farmers and wo must make every effort to Inform the voters." G. H. Ward of Tillamook coun ty reported petitions containing more than 10,000 signatures would be presented to the mer chants of that district urging them to taboo the sale of oleo margarine. Ho said these petitions- already had been com pleted. "This should be an Indigna tion instead of a protest meet ing, declared H. R. Richards of Wasco county. Butter Produced On Slim Margin "The big Interests would-take our bread and butter," continued Mr. Richards, "without giving us anything in return. It is now costing th dairymen of Oregon 17 cents : per- pound to produce butterfat and they are selling this product on a two cent mar gin. -We represent a billion dol lar industry, and we should have protection. Unless we rise and protect our heritage our farms will be destroyed." Walter Russell of Yamhill county referred particularly to the unsatisfactory agricultural conditions due to the existing business depression. Eben Ray of Polk county presided at the meeting preceding the election of the permanent chairman. Friday's meeting was spon sored by the Farmers' Union, but was attended by members of many other organizations. Vir tually all of these organisations, including the state grange, have Joined in the fight against the proposed referendum. The referendum attacking the oleomargarine tax was filed by Mrs. Alexander Thompson of Portland, on behalf of the Ore gon Anti-Food Tax league.
