Court Upholds Hyde in 

 St. Louis Livestock Case 



A decision of a special court filed in 

 East St. Louis the middle of December 

 upheld the order of Secretary of Agri- 

 culture Arthur M. Hyde suspending 43 

 old-line livestock commission firms at 

 the National Stock Yards, accused of 

 boycotting two co-operative organiza- 

 tions. 



The commission firms had appealed 

 to the Federal Court after Secretary 

 Hyde directed that their trading licenses 

 be suspended for ninety days. The 

 court at Danville rejected each conten- 

 tion of the dealers and upheld the con- 

 stitutionality of both Packers and Stock 

 Yards Act of 1921 and the Agricul- 

 tural Marketing Act under which the 

 Federal Farm Board was created, xi ' - 



It ruled the proceedings upon which 

 Secretary Hyde's order was based were 

 not irregular; that they did not violate 

 the dealers' constitutional! rights; and 

 that the order was neither unreasonable, 

 discriminatory, nor confiscatory. 



John Miller Tells About 

 St. Louis Milk War in WLS 



JOHN E. MILLER, president of the 

 Madison County Farm Bureau, told 

 about the dairymen's fight for a square 

 deal in the St. Louis milk shed, on radio 

 station WLS, December 8, during the" 

 noon hour. 



He discussed the construct^e pro- 

 gram of the Sanitary Milk Producers . 

 and the fact that all interests except 

 one dealer, the Pevely Dairy Company, 

 are co-operating to give the St. Louis 

 consumer high-quality milk at a mod- 

 erate price. 



Comparing the organized farmers' ef- 

 fort to gain a fair price for his product 

 to an army fighting for political justice, 

 he said: "A deplorable condition we 

 must admit does exist. All armies have 

 traitors. There are men who have joined 

 the ranks and then turned their backs 

 on their own organization — on their 

 own people who are trying so hard to 

 gain for them the right to market their 

 products co-operatively. 



"These are the men who joined the 

 organization and are now selling milk to 

 the Pevely Dairy Company. It Is un- 

 thinkable that some of our farmers to- 

 day do not have any more co-operative \ 

 spirit than to leave the rank and file of 

 their own organization and work against 

 everything the rest of us are fighting . 

 so hard to gain." 



The Schuyler County Farm Bureau 

 distributed more than twice as much 

 anti-hog cholera serum and virus to 

 members in 1931 than in any previous 

 year. :,■:'■■'"■"'•' ;., ■ v .::^- .::■" y :'■::[■. :^
