GEORGE L. HOUGHTON
ADDRESSED VERNON
FARMERS FRIDAY
Speaker States "World's Wealth
in Hands of Three Percent of People
'Vernon farmers wanting to know
what makes the "wheels go around'"
in the banking business were vitally
interested in the educational talk given by George Lorenz Houghton, at
the Vernon town hall Friday evening.
How 60 per cent of the wealth held
by 50 per cent of the people 100
years ago, has changed to 97 per
cent of the wealth being held by 3
per cent of the people at the .present
timer.was another fact shown.
Results obtained by the farmers
co-operative education anion' has
been* shown, by the way congressmen responded to the many messages
iroxa union farmers all over the
United States asking that the Fraz-
ier-Tempke bill be passed. This bill
provides for the re-financing of farm
mortgages. However they were only
able to fass the Frazier-Lempke
bankruptcy amendment which will
give farmers a chance until the Fraz-
ier-Lempke bill passes at next session of congress. Telegrams from
every union state poured into "Washington, to President Roosevelt,, last
Week, urging the signing of the
-amendment.
Since 3000 farm mortgages, are
being for.clo.ed daily, the number of
farmers to be helped can easily be
seen. Non-union farms, will benefit
•alike with union members? and many
fanners will be glad to take the benefit so gained, though they themselves did not. help to get the bill passed.
The second .talk by Mr. Houghton,
will be given July llth at Vernon
town hall, beginning at 8:30 sharp.
This will be a free open meeting.
These meetings are very educational,
and should not be missed by farmers
-desiring a greater knowledge of the
money system.
THREE MILE STRETCH
OF U.S. 27 CONCRETE
