The State Convention of the
National Farmers Organiza
tion was held at the Dunes
Motel In Newport on Septem
ber 24th and 25th.
State President, Don Peter
son, called for an all out drive
to contact neighbors, sign
them up as members, and sign
production so that farmers
may do their part in working
for cost of production plus a
reasonable profit.
He said tha current dis
astrous prices on wheat and
cattle have stopped normal
movement of crops to market.
He cited the disparity between
wages, compensation, salar
ies and interest (up 223 per
cent from base year '46 to '50,
as compared to net farm
income, down 2 per cent). The
concern about the danger to
small private enterprise has
resulted in active partici
pation with the Trade and
Economic Development Com
mittee of the legislature, and
contacts with the State Dept.
of Agriculture, when State and
National officers met with
director Leonard Kunzman
and Jay Glat of the Agri
Development Division.
Ag Economist Fredrick
Dahl of Silverton, Oregon, told
of his experiences overseas as
he worked in developing
countries. He talked about the
New Economic Order and the
effort toward "indexing" of
prices between the 77 develop
ing nations and the major
powers of the world.
Shelley Robertson, head of
Specialty Crops section at
Coming, Iowa (former Pilot
Rock resident), said the
Norway and Finland farmers
have priced their production
at cost of production plus a
reasonable profit, with result
ing national economic, politic
al and social benefits. He said
agri expenses are up 6 per
cent and net income is down 4
per cent; that statistics at the
national office indicate that
when our members block and
sell production, prices follow
volume. He urged strength
