C. Adams is president, sioner, S. D. Sanders brought a mes sage of renewed faith in the power of cooperation and words of tribute for what the Farm Credit Adminis tration is trying to accomplish. As Cooperative Bank Commission er, in charge of the Central Bank for Co-operatives at Washington, D. C„ and supervising the 12 region al banks for cooperatives, including the bank for cooperatives at Spo kane which serves northwest asso ciations, Mr. Sanders occupies a po sition of great importance to the co- operative movement. And he has the “grass roots’’ qualifications to render a distinguished service. Although he has long been known by northwest cooperative leaders for his successful part in the upbuilding of the Washington Cooperative Egg and Poultry Association, perhaps it is not fully known that he has been actively engaged in cooperative ac tivities for more than 30 years. Coming to the west In 1904 to regain his health, he took up a homestead in the Big Bend country of central Washington, built a log home and broke out the sod for a wheat farm. Crops were good but markets were poor. He urged his neighbors to join with him in doing something to reduce the unreason able "spread” which dealers exacted. Failing to win consideration through appeal, he and his fellow producers formed a marketing association. But they had no means of financing their grain on the way to market. “We went to a local bank,” the Commissioner related, “expecting to find our warehouse receipts regard ed as giltedge collateral. But we found the bank’s board unsympathe tic because of dealer influence. That only made us more determined, so we quietly began to buy up shares in the bank and at the next board meeting we were in control. Maybe that didn’t create a surprise—the fact that a group of farmers had made up their minds to get a fair deal. But we didn’t abuse our power; only from that time on I came to realize that a cooperative must be self-reliant, stand firmly on its own feet and work out its own problems in a determined, business- like way. And I've never changed my mind about this necessity.” In 1916 Mr. Sanders moved to Puyallup and started a poultry farm. The same old problem of marketing stood in the way; and just as he had attacked this prob lem in the Big Bend country he and his neighbors turned to cooperation as a solution to their egg marketing problem, forming the Washington Cooperative Egg and Poultry Asso ciation. After serving as a trusstee, Mr. Sanders was made president and general manager of the Association in 1923, a position he filled with much distinction until he was called by Governor W. I. Myers of the Farm Credit Administration in Jan uary to become Cooperative Bank Commissioner, succeeding F. W. Peck who returned to the Universi ty of Wisconsin to resume his post as extension service director. In his new capacity Mr. Sanders feels there is opportunity for im portant service to the cooperative movement, in a sound, constructive way. He expressed himself as be ing particularly enthusiastic about the cooperative make-up of the Farm Credit Administration, the high purpose of its personnel and the beneficial service it offers to agriculture. “I only wish every farmer in the country could have the same oppor tunity of getting a close-up view of the workings of- this service,” he de clared. "The cooperative farmer would feel right at home because the Farm Credit Administration is a cooperative institution, set up for farmer ownership and control of his own credit facilities.” But while Commissioner Sanders is a strong advocate of cooperation, he emphasizes the necessity for sound organization, adequate mem bership financing and good business management. "We favor the development of sound cooperatives,” he asserted, “and believe many of the problems of agriculture can be solved by the farmer himself, acting through his own cooperative organization. But first the fanner must be willing to Invest money of his own In the capi tal structure of bls association be fore the association calls upon the Bank for Cooperatives for aid.” Other points stressed by Commis- sioner Sanders are accurate account has been of material assistance to cooperative groups in the four northwest states, making nearly $8,000,000 in credit available on favorable terms for capital and merchandising purposes. At the same time borrowing groups have acquired an ownership interest in the bank amounting to more than $250,000, through their investment in its capital stock. Inquiries about this practical and helpful service will be gladly ans wered by an officer of the bank.— George F. Dunning, Information Agent, Farm Credit Administration. DEPRESSION DEMONSTRATED THE SOUNDNESS OF COOPERATION. "In spite of the fact that farm ers' business cooperatives continued to grow steadily in numbers, volume of business, and general strength from 1920 to 1929, when prices of agricultural commodities were at a marked discount in relation to prices for non-agricultural commodities, many persons failed to recognize the fundamental soundness of coopera tion. “Any doubt about its soundness now should be finally removed in view of what has happened since the economic collapse of 1929. In striking contrast to failures of thou sands of banks and industrial and commercial enterprises of all kinds, the failures among Harmers’ busi ness cooperatives have been relative ly unimportant. "There have been, of course, some failures among cooperatives since 1929. It would be almost miracu lous if there were none. But such failures have been relatively few and in no case has there been a failure of more than local impor tance. "This seems to me to be very sig nificant. In a period of such vio lent strains and stresses, the coop erative organizations escape with only minor injuries. Does that in dicate that there must be something essentially sound in the cooperative way of doing business? It certain ly seems so to me; and I believe that the experimental period for agricul tural cooperation in the United States has now definitely passed. It can be accepted as clearly demon strated that any type of farm busi ness can be carried on cooperative ly with success and with satisfac tion to the farmers who constitute the organization.—Dr. F. B. Bom- berger. President of the Baltimore Bank for Cooperatives. AN EIGHTH OF ALL FARM SUP PLIES ARE PURCHASED CO-OPERATIVELY. Of the $2,000,000.000 worth of supplies used by American Farmers in growing and marketing their crops annually, fully $250,000,000 —or one-eighth—is now purchased cooperatively, according to a bulle tin just published by the Coopera tive Division of the Farm Credit Administration. The purchases in clude such farm supplies as feed, seed, fertilizer, containers, spray ma terials, twine, and petroleum pro ducts. Tracing the growth of coopera tive farm supply buying over 70 years, the bulletin states that a number of purchasing associations were started by general farm orga nizations. Others developed inde pendently or in connection with co- operative associations originally formed for marketing farm products. The development during the past 15 years has been marked by the rise of large-scale cooperative pur chasing associations. These region al associations, located in almost every section of the United States, did an agrégate business of well over $100,000.000 In 1934. In ad dition to these, there are several thousand smaller associations that operate either as strictly purchas ing associations or in connection with cooperative elevators, cotton gins, creameries, and poultry orga nizations. The bulletin, entitled “Coopera tive Purchasing of Farm Supplies.” discusses the legal basis for this type of farmers’ cooperative activi- ties, the way In which these associa tions are organized and operated, their business policies, and how they are financed. Copies of the bulle tin may be had by writing to the Office of Information. Farm Credit Administration, Washington. D. C. Although the Hermiston Coopera tive Federal Credit Union has been in existence only a little over six months, it has been able to help quite a number of its members in emergencies, and is teaching a great lesson in thrift and savings with no delinquent loans. The savings set forth in the first statement issued by the treasurer have been increased over 300 per cent to date. Federal Credit Unions pay up to 6 per cent on savings, lending to the members at a reasonable rate of interest. Savings in a Federal Credit Union are protected by a reserve for pos sible had loans and the treasurer is amply bonded against absconding or other irregularities of office. Any person in Hermiston or in radius of fifty miles from Hermiston is eligible to membership in the Credit Union, the office of which is open at the Grange Co-op each Fri day afternoon.
