McKelvie, Back From Confer-
cnee, Approves Plan lo Lewi
State Funs to Agriculture
ists in Slack Period.
Lincoln, Dec. 13. (Specials
Farmers' 'eroblems occupied the
greater part of the attention of the
conference of- governors in Harris
burg Penn., according to Governor
V
McKelvie, wlio returned to his office
n-today-from the meeting. j
General concensus of opinion at
tn conference, according to the
covernor, s that the American farm
c must be given help. The goy
frliorj seemed to feel, he said, that
, the farmers can not accomplish much
by raising bumper craps of grain,
enly to have the eraiir held bv
moneyed interests for the prolScr"
ff...w.: j j ,i
imiiirduoni in price ana allowing
the ultimate consumer to stand the

Model After Nebraska.'
General interest was evident )
reorganization plans of other states
in their business machinery to model
after the code now in use in Nebras
ka, he said.
Feeling was high against govcrn
mcnt action of making appropria-
tions to states, forcing the states to
meet these appropriations, and thc-H-
maming crniroi 01 ine expenditure
of the funds, he said. Especially is
this true with1 regard to improve
ment of highways, he declared, al
though Nebraska is well satisfied
with the federal aid work " '
; Farmers Borrow Sate Funds.
The' overnor expressed approval
of the plan presented the conference,
whereby the state; lends funds to
farmers for the slack period, similar
to the plan now in force in Okla
homa and North Dakota, which, the
governor says, is meeting with favor.
He- said ,the state has bonds
loaned out to other states and east
ern 1 financial institutions, which
might just as well be used to lend
funds to Nebraska farmers on Ne
braska land, which is the best ob
tainable security. .
