Thompson Calls on Bureaus to Fight for National Policy. CHICAGO, May 11. -VP) The Chamber of Commerce of the United States and grain exchanges which have attacked the agricultural marketing act were assailed today by Sam H. Thompson, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, in letter calling upon all members tor fight what he termed "our economic enemies." Terming the various steps against the operation of the act "a serious challenge to organized agriculture," Thompson wrote: "This law represents the result of seven years of toil, sacrifice and bitter battle on the part -of the farm people of this country. It la the first step in the adoption of a national policy that will enable farm people to live and earn on the same basis as the other economic groups of the country." Handwriting on Wall.

Remarking that the act seeks to promote effective merchandising of agricultural commodities and to encourage producer-owned and controlled co-operative marketing enterprises, he continued: "But, already, great speculative groups that have, year by year, profited at the expense of agriculture through fluctuations in the price of produce of the farm, see the handwriting on the wall. They have openly and definitely declared war on this policy. "It is up to the organized farmers of the nation whether this policy shall stand or whether it shall be destroyed." Calls on Officers. Calling upon officers of the federation's 1.837 county units to "set the machinery in motion," he continued: "See to it that your representatives in Congress be not confused; that they know beyond misunder- standing that the declared policy of the agricultural marketing act parallels the demand of American agriculture; that if an amendment is made to this act, they know it must be an amendment designed to further facilitate the carrying out of the policy and not an amendment which will in any way hamper or obstruct this work." He concluded with the assertion that the American Farm Bureau Federation was co-operating with the farm board to the fullest in the development of co-operative marketing and pleaded with members to "use the radios, newspapers and every available source to solidify agricultural sentiment on this vital economic issue." 2 MEXICAN FLIERS DIE IN SEA PLUNGE CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE.

800 WOMEN HEAR MRS. NELLIE ROSS CONCLUDED FROM FAtiE ONE. the fact that American women, who have more freedom than any other women in the world, should let Paris set the styles for us. In speaking of the return In dress, called from Paris, to whalebone and steel after years of getting rid of the burdensome attire, she said that she gloried in the reply that went back from the economically independent women in business, professions and sports, indicating agreement 'to modification of our erstwhile radical styles, but positive rejection of absolute repeal. "Who should be the dictators of fashion, if not the women of America, the freest spenders and the best-dressed women in the world, and who should do the yielding If not those who depend upon their patronage?" Independence nf Thought.

"The decisiveness with which women have declared their physical emancipation symbolizes the independence of thought and action that tHey are indicating in matters relating to mental and spiritual Interests. "Such assertion is new lo women," she said. "It (foes not, however, indicate any essential change in her nature or disregard of the responsibilities that rest peculiarly upon her as a woman. "A broad view of the whole scope of woman's history discloses that her work, new and old, whatever forms it may take, remains the same in character and so do the animating motives behind it." Mrs. Ross spoke of the fact that only yesterday the United States Department of Labtir had called attention to the fact that there were more daughters than sons right now contributing to the support of aged parents.

"It has been the industrial progress and economic pressure that has induced the great exodus of women from the home and launched them into the business world, rather than the design of women themselves," said the speaker. While the barriers have been partially removed from the coveted fields of activity for women, yet there are many obstacles in her path, Mrs. Ross declared. Overcoming of Handicaps. "It is safe to say that you who have been successful In your equality have had to meet, and overcome ail the normal handicaps that beset the way of man in life's contests, and in addition prejudice that clings in the minds of people about you against your invasion of those strange fields, and lingering doubts as to the ability of a woman to qualify for the heavy responsibilities those positions imposed upon you." "Surely," she said, "the nt Kv.

hnve nnt lived so lonff in the world without hearing that a spirit of rivalry and antagonism between men snd women in any relationship of life not only falls to advance the interest of either but actually impedes the progress of Dom. In speaking of the place women have taken in politics she said that the nation has a right to expect that with the increasing participation of women in politics there will be an elevation of standards. "Now, after ten years of opportunity the charge is made against us snd we can not refute it that we are not making good that promise. We can not deny that in the last decade there has been more corruption come to light in government than in any like period before. Are we making progress to a degree that is creditable to us?" she asked.

Influence on War. "The time was," said the speaker, "when women could only weep over the tragedy of war, but the day has now arrived when they share equally the rcsoonsibility with men for the solution of that problem. It Is a sublime thought that it may yet be the hand of woman that will guide the world in paths of permanent peace. You of this organization, in your good will tours, are building up and fostering a feeling of sisterhood among the women of the world and by your co-operation with other organizations are contributing vitally to the development of amity among the nations."
