A Letter Dear Friend: Recently a news writer called the Farm Bureau President "One Buck Shuman." He labelled me "Two Buck Patton." I gladly accept the label because I am FOR the BEST Farm Income we can get NOW. The chips are really down for farmers in the Wheat Referendum May 21. The REAL issue is whether farmers get TWO BUCKS or ONE buck for their 1964 wheat. The cry of "FREEDOM" is pure bunk because farmers can name their own ticket this year, next year, or any year, under the law. I'm sure that you are aware that a NO vote means income disaster next year. Not only for wheat, but for feed grains and livestock as well. I'm appealing to you and your friends to be sure and VOTE and VOTE YES for TWO buck wheat and the best farm income we can get NOW! Fraternally, JIM PATTON, President National Farmer's Union (Pd.
