'Wo are told Hint the farmer re ceives 34 cents of the dollar that the consumer pays for farm products. Thero is need to change that ratio. It has apparently been tho function of tho farmer to produce and then lake his chance with market fluctuations and with market conditions where waste, duplication, manipulation and speculation have operated to turn the law of supply and demand upside down. "Willi all other farmers I resent the discovery that the just mid ciiultable share of profits from my labor anil the labor of my neighbors has erected a brownstone front on Iikeshorc drive, or outfitted a palatial pleasure boat Instead of being returned to me, wherewith to purchase the new dress that my wife had been waiting years for, or to enable mo to glvo my girl some nf the advantages that her town girl friends enjoy."

While not discussing the fotninifv tee's marketing plan in detail, the secretary said it appeared to have profited by practical experience of the past and to have avoided the weaknesses which had broken down many previous organizations. It had tried he said, to improve the market ing machinery and had not under taken to wipe it out, adding "in this you have been most wise." The committee, he asserted, was "neither attempting to create a mo nopoly nor to fix prices." falling attention to the current low wF T? Tift-99, ZZ5 prices for farm products, while "vir tually everything the farmers buy is from 5 Oto 100 per cent above pre war normal," Secretary Wallace said, "it is not strange that thousands of them should be willing and ready to adopt drastic measures to correct a condition which is so grossly unjust and which is causing widespread hardship and suffering." Tho secretary added, however, that it was "no time to be ruled by preju dices and no time for shallow think ing," declaring the more critical the situation the greater need for keeping "a level head." American farmers are in competi tion with tlve world and must adjust themselves to the situation, tho secre- tary added, as best they may. "It ,is not time to try quack nostrums." J
