Farmers push to control wheat prices through equity society
The first national convention of the American Society of Equity in Omaha plans to organize 50 field organizers to hold wheat for higher prices. President J A Everett says banks will loan to farmers for holding stock, but critics warn the costly tactic may fail amid diverse farmer needs and market forces. Public sympathy supports fair returns while experts urge political action to expand exports and reduce tariff barriers.
