tion at a meeting hero of t-omini-1
f-ioners of agriculture from wevoi
states. .
Tho plan will be taki-n to the tvd-!
cial farm board in Washington. j
Tho cooperative would rovitlu-1
tionize methods of marketing fruits
and vcBPtables in the south, whiih
In tile lnnl decade nan atkli-d a rap
idly pro wins output of lrui-k crops
to its large fruit output.
Action of the conimissioner.s was
tho first move ever mado to form
an organization serving the entire
south for distribution of farm prod
ucts, other than cotton and lobar-;
co, to eliminate competition be-:
tweon Htates and communities.
Commissioner William A. (Ira-;
ham of North Carolina proposed;
tho cooperative, Harry D. Wilson f
J,ouilana, president of the South
ern Association of Commissioners
of Agriculture, was an enthusiastic
second. . , :
The other commissioners favored
the plan unanimously.
Details of tho organiwilion will bo
worked out by Graham and Wilson
who, with other southern comniis
Hioners and state market bureau
eliiofs, will submit the plan to the
bureau of agricultural economics
and the federal farm board in
Washington.
Out of the Washington meeting.
(Ira ham and Wilson believe, will
come a strong union that will en
able each state to know at all
times what tho other is placing on
tho market and govern shipments to
avoid glutted marts and low prices.
