tiong. After considerable discussion it was de- 

 cided to cable the French exporters requesting 

 them to so reduce their prices as to meet our 

 present conditions. 



There has been some uncertainty as 

 to the attitude of Holland houses oper- 

 ating in French bulbs for export to 

 America. That these dealers take the 

 same view as the American houses is 

 shown by the following cable: 



.\niple expluniition sent to French s.vndicate.

This was dated at Haarlem May 24, 

 the day after the New York meeting, 

 and bore the signature of the Dutch 

 Bulb Exporters' Association. 



GRASS SEEDS COMPLAINTS. 



At the meeting of the Wholesale Grass 

 Seed Dealers' Association, in Cliicago, 

 January 25, 1921, the committee on 

 grievances was created, consisting of 

 seven members of tlie association, the 

 association counsel being denominated 

 as chairman. This committee has been 

 duly organized. 



The principal duties of the committee 

 are to investigate and, so far as pos- 

 sible, to attempt to eliminate fraud or 

 misrepresentation of quality in the sale 

 of agricultural seeds, whether the of- 

 fenses complained of are by members 

 of the Wholesale Grass Seed Dealers' 

 Association or by nonmembers. 



The methods of carrying on the work 

 of this committee have been cnrefully 

 thought out, after negotiations witli 

 various government agencies, and may 

 be briefly summarized as follows: 



(1) In case of mistake or unintentional mis- 

 representation of quality, correction b.v private 

 aKreement with the seedsmen. 



(1!) Keport of offender to members of the as 

 sociation. 



(3) Kxpulsion of memliiT from nssociatinn. 



(4) Presentment of complaint to the Federal 

 Trade Commission. 



(5) Prosecution under federal or state seoil 

 laws. 



(0) Prosecution under postal laws. 



(7) Criminal prosecution for common fraud. 



Any government official, seedsman, 

 purchaser of seeds or other interested 

 ]iarty, whether of the United States or 

 of foreign countries, having a bona fide 

 complaint against a seed grower or secil 

 merchant dealing in agricultural seeds 

 and resident in the United States, may 

 file complaint with the undersigned, 

 chairman of the committee, 75 Tremont 

 street, Boston, and such complaint will 

 be fairly, fully and promptly acted upon 

 by said committee without cost. The 

 services of the committee are not per- 

 functorily offered. The value of the 

 committee's services largely depends on 

 the interest of those having and report- 

 ing bona fiile complaints.
