Omaha A report of how the fed- eral farm board, by buying wheat a j year ago thru an agency of the Ne braska Farmer's union which had spurned the board's invitation to join, poured several thousand dollars extra profits into the coffers of the Nebraska organization, featured the ' afternoon session of the Farmer's Union Co-operative Elevator feder-; ation Thursday. The federation was holding its first ' annual session having been organ- ; ized a year following the state iarm er8 union convention. The feder ation also lefused to join the federal farm board's ranks. When Alexander Legge. chairman I of the federal board, decided to sta jbilize the price of wheat at $1.13 by buying thru co-operative channels, I the National Grain Commission com pany here, owned by the Farmer s union was the only Omaha co-operative which he could use, delegates were told. George C. Johnson, manager of the commission company, told the feder ation stock holders that of the 2,204 cars of wheat handled in 1930, 937 were for Mr. Legge. Gross earnings of the commission company were $36,773.40 for the year. More than half of this amount came from com missions from wheat handling, Mr. Johnson said. Under terms of the federation's contract with the Farmer's union ? 30.000 stock from the Farmer's dividends earned by the National Grain Commission company are to be used in buying the federation's union. Net earnings in 1930 were $14, :'.00, Mr. Johnson reported. Most of this is to be used by the federation for the union stock purchase. Two new directors were elected by the stockholders. They are Walter Burgess, Richland, and Harry Cum mins, Seward. State Journal. Offers Bargain..; gsltaont Women's Strep Clippers and Pumps Cuban and high heels.
