In a Minnesota North Dakota and South Dakota conference at the state capitol Governor Burnquist called the meeting. A resolution urging a government fixed minimum price of eight dollars per bushel for No 1 northern wheat was adopted. The plan would price other grades on a differential not exceeding four cents per bushel. A three‑person delegation was chosen to travel to Washington to press the plan.
