The farmer is the keynote to the arch in the solu tion of the economic and industrial troubles in which the nation is now involved, declared Samuel R. Mc Kelvie, governor of Nebraska, Mon day, before the "Our Country First" conference composed of represen tatives of business, manufacturing, financial and farm organizations for more than thirty states, which met to consider remedial legisla tion for oresent dav troubles. "He can and will furnish the basis for a proper readjustment of these troubles if he is given only half a chance to do so," said Gov ernor McKelvie. "The farmer pro duces the essential commodities of life. If be can produce these eco nomically then all the other indus tries and labor will feel the bene fits of his work, but if he is obliged to carry on his operations under pressure of constantly increasing costs of labor and materials then it becomes impossible for him to produce at prices that will lay the foundation for satisfactory settle ment." Governor McKelvie, who said he came to the conference to repre sent the farmer, congratulated the delegates on taking the farmer into their meetings. "The farmer," he said, "never en gaged in strikes or lockouts; was a very substantial citizen, and usual ly thought clearly." Frank Gardner Dies From Shots Fired in Holdup by Bandits Kansas City.
