Capper told the story yesterday to
illustrate Ills contention that the
price* of farm products arc dispropor-

ample of condltlous, which, he Haid,
are causing dissatisfaction throughout
the Mississippi Valley und other agri-
cultural areas.
"A year i>go a fanner could get five

little more tiuin one gallon of gasoline
for the same ainount of corn. This is
just an example of What the farmer is
up afiinat in every direction."

"Whatever else Is done, the xltna-
tion confronting the farmers must re-
ceive attention," said Capper. "Farm-
«r are discriminated against, and are
facing ruin. The farming industry is
receiving a setback from which it will

; Appearing before the board with of-
ficials of fifteen other recognized rall-
xvay unions, Mr. Stone announced that |
after l>elng classed "for seventeen
years as an ultra conservative, 1 have
arrived at the point where I am I
through making excuses to the men." (
"There must be some plan found
somewhere, whereby we can get re-
sults for these men," Mr. Stone con-
tinued. 'The locomotive engineers
have carried the load of responsibility i
for years. We have tried to embody
your board's decision of last July in
agreements with 358 railroads, but
only four of these agreements have
teen signed. The roads refuse to sign
until the board passes on the question
of rules."
ftjnie d.^dsion last July raised rail-
road wages $000,000,000.
- With Mr. Stone appeared officials of
the other employes' organizations ask-
ing that the board hold a bearing to
decide the creation of a board of ad-
