EY LEADS I TREMONTON, UTAH, THURSDAY, AUGUST 3, 1933 VOLUME EIGHT 21, 22 TT Industries Pledged; Local Outlined; Interesting Busy Club Meeting LARGE CROWD IN ATTENDANCE AT FARM OUTING eaus. President Anderson and Secretary Tracy R. Welling were state officials in attendance, each delivering important talks on legislation and farm prob lems effecting the farmers. State Senator Albert E. Holmgren was also a speaker and gave the highlights of the extra session of the State Legislature. the Among the important items of folthe of was the adoption gathering lowing resolution unanimously by the officers and members present: Resolution Whereas, it has been called to the attention of the officers of the local and county farm bureau presidents that certain brokerage companies of the state are importing sugar from California and selling it in this state and in this county at a price considerable below cost of sugar at the local factory. Therefore be it resolved that the officers and members of the North and South Box Elder County Farm Bureau here assembled to resent and protest against this practice of the merchants using this sugar as a leader, foicing the prices down on this important commodity of our farms and thu reduce the price of beets which is affected by the price of sugar being sold on a participating contract that is now in force. Be it further resolved that we take the same position with respect to any locally grown farm commodity being used by merchants as leaders thus demoralizing the markets on such products. Now be it resolved that it be the sense of the members of this organization here assembled that we will look with disfavor with respect to patronizing upon any merchant who per. sists in this unfair practice against the interests of the farmer of this county and state and that for our own protection we demand that sugar be sold in the original containers of the manufacturers of the state, and at a price not less than cost. Be it further resolved that we as farmers be loyal to the industries that are consuming our raw products and that we state our preference for such merchandise when we are making our purchases. Following luncheon Wednesday evening the Lions, went to their club rooms where a very interesting meeting was held. Lion D. B. Green reported on the bank situation and very satisfactory results were being obtained by the committee of twelve whose job it is to gather data and see to it that a bank is established in Tremonton. Following this report a very interesting account of world's fair was given by Lion Alvis Anderson, Lion N. Earl Marble reported the scenic beauties of his trip to St Louis to the convention and Lion President LeRoy Bishop reported the highlights of the convention. It is evident from the manner in which these reports were given that, the representatives from the club had used their eyes and ears and had brought something of value back to their organization. Lion President Bishop named a merchants committee consisting of Wesley Gephart, Harry Taylor, Ed Winchester and N. E. Shaw. This committee had been at work for the past few days, having been advised of their duties before hand, and submitted a partial code in line with the President's National Recovery Act. A series of meetings will be held by this committee and the merchants to effect a code, which will then be made public. Following the discussion of this committee, Lion James Walton called to the attention of the club tie fact that certain brokerage firms of this state were making strenuous efforts to sell a foreign brand of sugar to the merchants of this community and that, according to reports, some of this sugar had been sold in Tremonton. Lion Walton, after discussing the detrimental effects that result from such a practice to the beet growers of this valley in eventually forcing down the prices of sugar, which would effect the price of beets paid to the farmer, because of the fact that the price of beets is controlled by the price of sugar on a participating contract, made a motion that the merchant present and the Lions go on record as disapproving this practice and calling upon the merchants of this community to be loyal to the farmers and the beet industry and demand Bugar made by local manufacturers and in the original containers of the local This motion carried manufacturers. unanimously with a strong sentiment that not only sugar should have such consideration but other manufactured products made from the farms and fields and the toil of the laborers of this valley. 4-- H On the evening of Friday, August the Box Elder Campfire program will be held at Crystal Springs. 18, Ogden Day May Be Set Campfire Pro gram Will be Held At Crystal Springs 4-- H Park Stumm of South Tremonton has chosen as general chairman.
