Government Aid Sought In Marketing Cotton Work of Peter Radford Commended. Fort Worth, Texas. The eleventh annual meeting of the Farmers' Edu cational and Co-operative Union of America came to a close In this city today. More than two thousand dele gates were present, representing the various state organizations and cov ering an area from coast to coast and from the great lakes to the gulf. President Chas. S, Barrett, presid ed over the sessions and introduced the , various speakers. The keynote of the convention was the action of the convention in asking government al aid in financing the cotton crop of the South. "The greatest crisis in years, brought on by the European war, faces the United States," said Presi dent Barrett in his opening address. "There is only one thing to do and that is for the United States govern ment to buy three or four million bales of cotton at not less than ten cents a pound from the farmers of the South to be held until a higher price may be obtained and, when sold, the prolit, minus the expense of hand ling to be remitted to the farmers." The convention went on record as favoring, , the , Henry , bill ; introduced ifflufraranoi Ifollcnoi CTOPfoE OUR MOTTO IS HIGH GRADES before Congress recently, which favors the buying of cotton by the government as a relief of the pres ent situation. This bill was drafted with the co-operation of President Barrett, who believes that it fully covers the situation. Provision was made for the raising of a fund of $200,000 for the purpose of maintaining a committee to devise plans for relieving the depressing results of the European war. This committee will include a member from every organized state, together with the national officials and the na tional executive committee. The com mittee will be In charge of Peter Rad ford of Texas, who was appointed chairman, and before the adjournment of the session more than $10,000 of the fund had already been pledged. A resolution was passed condemn ing the present war and recommend ing the establishment of an interna tional parliament and an international court, looking to universal peace and good will between the nations of the world.

A marketing plan, introduced by Harry Tracy of Texas in which a practical system of marketing farm products was outlined was heartily endorsed by resolution. Union Officials Endorsed. Referring to the work of the offi cers of the Farmers' Union, Mr. Bar rett paid a high tribute to the manner in which they have co-operated with him. "They have stood steadfastly by me in every call to duty," said Mr. Barrett, "and In every endeavor for the general good. They are true, faithful and conscientious men. I want to pay especial tribute to one individual, Peter Radford. If I should be asked to name one man in the Union who has done more to lighten my own load, who stood ready day or night for service, who doesn't even wait for the distress signal, then I'd have to say Peter Radford. Men like Peter Radford keep one's faith sound, his courage high and renew belief in humanity." Union Growing Rapidly. President Barrett stated that the Union was fast growing in numbers and in strength. Twenty -seven states in .the Union are Included in its mem bership and the total number of mem bers aggregate more than eight mil lion.
