Farmers of Iowa Unite in Politics
Five farmer organizations in Iowa form the Farmers Union Organization of Iowa to act as a political co operative. The group plans Des Moines headquarters and a $290 per county mobilization fund. Figures like G E Weemly and N Frederickson are named as campaign committee members. The platform supports initiative and referendum and opposes certain taxes and defense council funding. James M Pierce defends the Non Partisan league as a local group.
