FROM A DAIRYMAN .
In record to an article appearing
In the fovember 28 Issue of the i
Valley Settler, it is made to ajjpe«.r|
that, the dairymen who brought suit |
against the Co-op have committed a
very bad blunder. It has also been)
made to appear in past months that ,
they have no other interest but to j
break up the Co-op.
Hoy/ lot's go back to thp.time be-j
fore this suit v/as started. You
who attended the Dairymen's meet
ings at that time remember v;hat the
fart3 really are.
Ilamely, that although the manager
and Co-op board at that time did
not feel that they could undertake
to assume the responsibility of
making these payments, due to the
financial condition of the Co-op,
without a jpdge's lawful decision,
a final.a nd just decision was bad
needed. ' ■ ’ ; •
The Dairymen, realizing this, de
cided to bring- suit, not in an at
tempt to break the Co-*op or be
cause the:' did not understand what'.
theT; .were doing, but to- bring their
problem into 'the hand-s- of competent
men, who. -could render a decision
that could ‘not be hone-stly challen
ged b” anyone.
In this art'cle referred to, it
is asked, "V.'hy wasn't the board of
directors sued instead?" Why sue
the board of directors? In the
first place, the Dairymen realized
they had made- a. decision that was
q uite just from everyone's point
of view. In’the second place, why
sue a few farmers, who are no
better off than the rest of us
farmers her e In the vai.l^y: bo it
was dec id d t :iat by suing the Coop
vie v/ould all share the expense of
this -dec,!*ion which was so urgen
tly needed^ ‘
,1 In this article referred to, it
was po-lnte l out th^t- "it stands to
reason that the part of the Associa
tion that made the money/" v, ould
l#e standing the expense of unis
trial, the onev v'ho sued. This is
very true. So, instead of making
the Dalr^nnen appear in a bad lig t !
let us all give a big hand to the j
men v/ho worked so diligently on
these problems of ours. Mr. Grigs-i
by, Mr. Davis and Judge Dimond
and let's remember that although
the1r services might cost us a
little money* it is a very reason
able price to pay for solving a
