Dr. J P Ladd, Republican candidate for U S senator, says farmers since 1916 organized to secure better marketing conditions and terminal elevators. He recalls discrimination against Bluestem and Durum wheat, price penalties for damaged flax, and buyer schemes that lowered farmer income while millers and consumers benefited. He cites wartime shifts and calls for fair treatment and better prices for spring wheat.
