NFO fund-raising called success in Corning Iowa

National Farmers Organization members expect to cover all obligations by week’s end after nearly 1 million in new commitments. Oren Lee Staley, NFO president, cited 5 million raised at an emergency Des Moines meeting plus additional dues payments and loans forgiveness. The SEC accuses NFO of fraud for taking 98 million in member loans without sufficient dues to cover them and for not disclosing outstanding obligations to lenders. A Des Moines hearing on the charges was set for Wednesday. Members nationwide were told 10 million was needed to keep the group alive, with SEC arguing assets of 42 million in uncollected dues overstated. About 2.4 million in delinquent dues have since been collected. Staley maintains the organization can repay debts through unpaid dues.
