National Farmers Organization urges nonviolence amid market protests
Leaders of the National Farmers Organization urged members to avoid outbreaks of violence threatening their postwar market rebellion. They warned against dynamiting barn burnings and highway shootings as officials in three states weigh drastic measures. The group emphasizes keeping livestock on the farm to pressure higher prices through market controls rather than clashes with truckers or businessmen. Livestock receipts rose while hog and cattle prices fell in most Midwestern markets.
