Knell Sounds for Middemen at National Farmers Union Session
At the closing session of the annual meeting the National Farmers Union plans measures to eliminate middlemen in cotton marketing. A commission from cotton states would control handling in union warehouses, with 15 percent taken per sale distributed by annual yield. Bankers would advance 60 percent on warehouse receipts, aiming to make certificates negotiable. Proposals urge immersion of immigration reforms and bagging to boost evictions, while a secret price set for union members guides market outcomes.
