ent situation. This bill was drafted
with the co-operation of President

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

endorsed by resolution.

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

bership in the organization.
The officials of the Union were
unanimously re-elected for the coming
year as follows: C. S. Barrett,' Geor
gia, president; A. V. Swift, vice pres
ident, Oregon; A. C. Davis, secretary,
