Patronage Dividends vs Robbing Peter to Pay Paul
A Manitoba Wheat Pool critique asserts the Manitoba Pool Elevators paid patronage dividends by failing to honor promised interest on farmers loans from 1924 to 1929. It details deductions of two cents per bushel plus a one percent reserve, totaling about 15 cents per bushel borrowed, and claims $5.59 million owed to farmers in principal and interest since 1929. The piece accuses tax avoidance and urges repayment to members and payment of taxes for national needs.
