PRESIDENT'S REPORT TO MEMBERS OF THE GRAIN, MILLING AND FEED DEALERS ASSN:

The President's year of this association runs from February to February, and this, has been one of the busiest years in our 37-year history. Services to the membership have more than tripled; more committees are at work; our public relations program has expanded tremendously; our cooperation with the National Association has been more exten­ sive; our directors have been busier than ever; and our meager financial income has been used entirely to further this program.

1. MEMBERSHIP SERVICES

(a) We obtained 21 new members and lost 11. (b) Thirteen bulletins were published. They have been enlarged over previous years and have included more complete feed news. The news bulletins have been more up to date, accurate and newsworthy, I am sure you wi 11 agree. (c) The Legislative Committe~ and your secretary have spent many hours on legis­ lative work, in which they were successful in helping to block a 22% increase in Workmen's Compensation Insurance premiums, obtained partial success in an appropriation for Colo­ rado State University wheat quality research, and successfully passed a new feed bi 11 and pink wheat bill. (d) Because of increased activities, office correspondence has increased, with postage costs up to $500 and telephone up to $400. (e) The Country Elevator Committee was successful in getting increased bonds re­ quired of truckers and is currently seeking to increase the bonds on scale installors. We have a copy of all bonded agricultural handlers, including truckers, available for anyone who wants a copy. (f) Mutual cooperation with the Colorado Wheat Administrative Committee was a constant goal for the year, even under sometimes difficult circumstances. Five ~ighly successful meetings were held in eastern Colorado with members and the C.W.A.C., which did much to alleviate misunderstandings. The meetings were held to get your grass-roots thinking on these problems. Efforts are sti 11 under way to improve relations between producers and handlers. You wi 11 be interested to know that as a result of resolutions adopted at these meetings, and similar meetings in most other wheat states concerning sedimentation testing, it is ?robable that the U.S.D.A. wi 11 permit elevator operators to store wheat either on a sedimentation station average or a protein basis. It is clear that without the united efforts of the entire industry, we would not have been able to achieve this compromise with the U.S.D.A. (g) Cooperation with the National Association has included many letters from this office to our Congressional delegation and to the U.S.D.A.; a successful national member­ ship campaign in Colorado; cooperation on the national cost studies; and we worked close­ ly with ' the National officers and executive committee in helping to create this current 66th annual convention and its various social events. Your help in this convention has been magnificent. We also sent your secretary to the national convention in Washington last year at the expense of the Association, at which he gained information which was helpful to us in making this convention a success. (h) Your secretary is currently preparing the 1962-63 Mountain States Directory which wi 11 show an increase in advertising and greater accuracy in listings, to make our directory one of the best in the . We would appreciate it immensely if each of you would personally thank these firms who advertise in our directory, because it is one of only three methods we have of financing the association.

2. COMMITTEE WORK (a) The Youth Activities Committee again successfully sponsored the annual 4-H Club Grain Market"ing· Contest and the Junior Milling and Baking contest. Both of these turned out to be the largest and most successful in our history. We have one of our Milling and Baking scholarship winners currently at Fort Collins, the scholarship being paid for by the association. (b) The E~ecutive Committee has held regular meetings with the secretary concern­ ing association problems, activities and decisions. (c) The Legislative Committee, in addition to legislative work as above reported, was also successful in helping to get the inventory tax reduced 5%. (d) D,:spite the death of our former active Chairman, D. L. Chase, the Feed Commit­ tee has re-established the joint Colorado State University--Feed Industry Coordinating Committee, which has been meeting regularly to establish joint recommendations which feed dealers and C.S.U. could make to livestock and poultry producers. Three new members have been added to this committee for more wide-spread representation and better balance. The Feed Committee also cooperates actively with the American and Midwest Feed Manufac­ turers' Association. (e) The Country Elevator Committee has held a series of meetings with the Colorado Wheat Administrative Committee to establish joint action as to wheat mi 11 levy collections and administration, surveys and cost analyses. They also have met with the State Agri-

more .... culture Department on several occasions to work out mutual problems concerned with grain storage and state laws, and are currently working with the Wheat Marketing Special­ ist at Colorado State University to conduct an elevator management school early in May. (f) The Resolutions Committee has worked closely in supporting resolut_i.ons sub­ mitted to the U.S.D.A., Congress and our Nat!onal Association. (g) The ·Membership Committee staged a whirlwind contest for ~ew m~mbers and their efforts are contihuing along that line. (h) The Transportation Committee's work this year has been largely supplying information on transportation, rates and policies.

3. DIRECTORS (a) Your directors held five meetings during the year to take action on associa­ tion business. These meetings usually last al 1 day, and please keep in mind ~hat all of the directors pay their own expenses at these meetings, including the one heid at Lost Trai 1 Ranch last June. · The Association does not reimburse the directors for any of their expenses. The membership owes the directors a vote of thanks for the time and money they spent on this voluntary basis, on :behalf of the Association. Major decisions which vitally af,fect the success of any trade association and its contribution t.o the': 1menibers'hip are -_debated widely at tfrese directors• meetings. '· .

4. PUBLIC RELATIONS (a) Concerning association activities, your secretary was able to obtain 18 stories and 7 pictures in the Post; 22 stories and 4 prctures in; the Rocky Mountain News; and 9 stories in virtually eve_r:y weekly newspaper in the rural areas of Colorado. This sets an .all-time record for publicity in the Association. In addition, he obtained 36 stories and 14 pictures in the various trade papers and journals throughout t~e country. (b) A.n economic survey 'was conducted through the membership, which indicat~d that the grain, and feed industry is <;:ine of the _largest in the state, and this material has been pr~pare~.· in the form of a lS-minute speech which the secretary has given o~ various occasions ,and w:,ich other members are being cal led upon to give, to better acquaint the public with : the contribution this industry makes to the economic bloodstream of Colorado. · (c) In addition to attending the National Convention in Washington, your .secretary also attended . the Wyoming grain a.nd feed c;onvention and both of the Colorado Press Associ­ ation conventions. To my personal knowledge, he has spent considerable of his own personal funds in helping to promote publicity space in the various papers and radio stations. (d) In his 21 months with the Assoc.iation, the secret,ary has made one complete tour of the stat~, cal ling on the membership, and wi 11 embark on another tour sbon.

'-INANCES · '. i "

(a) This Association· has only three methods OT income: dues, con~ention and directory profits. This ~o~ey' is spent as outlined above, for rent, office services, printing, postage, wages, ' tra'vel, committee wo:-k, di rectory printing, taxes, scholarships, and convention expenses. Being a non-profit association, the money taken in is spent entirely for association se~vices and activities, in which our primary goal is to help imp~oye and protect your business.

In conclusion, I want to thank all those members who have served on committees, / particularly the Feed and Country Elevator Committees, the directors and the Executive Committee, and all of you who have attended these meetings at your own expense. It has been a great pleasure on my part to have worked with the Executive Secretary .. Bob Wier, and his assistant Elaine Holmbeck, over the past year, who in many instances have spent considerable time over their usual' routine hours to meet deadlines and to see .that the pertinent information was made available to the membership. Because of th~ir ~articular interest in seeing that your Association functioned to the best of their abi_lity, they have been very receptive to any suggestions from the membership, and welcome any that you may see fit to offer. Remember, this is YOUR Association, and we hope you wi 11 use the services of these fine people to the utmost; I am sure they will see that any sugges- tions on the part of the members wi I I be properly considered. I am grateful to all members for having done your part to make your Association one of the finest in the United Jtates. /

OFFICERS Dear Exhibitor:

President James W. Rawson The 36th Annual Convention df the Colorado Grain, Mi !Jing and Feed D~alers Burllngton Association wi IJ be held February 19-20-21, 1961 at the new Denver Hilton Hotel, after many years at the old Shirley-Savoy. This move will be a Vice President Del Ellis tremendous improvement for all exhibitors and delegates at the Convention. Denver We will have twenty-eight exhibit spaces which will be right in the center

DIRECTORS of the hotel lobby, directly in front of, and connected to, the convention meeting rooms. The registration desk will be right by the exhibit booths.

Floyd B. Borders Stratton Attached to this letter you wi 11 note the exhibit booth layout as it will be established in the Hilton lobby. You will note that there are two 1 1 1 1 1 1 spaces 10 x 13 and two 10' x 14 , nine spaces 10 x 10', three 8 x 6 , Don Briggs 1 Haswell and twelve 8 x 5'. Since the Denver Hi !ton has increased its charges for floor space over what we paid at the Shirley-Savoy, we are required to in­

Robert s. Davis crease our charges. In one way, this is regrettable, but in another way Colorado Spring, the exhibitor wi 11 get much more for his money this year than ever before, because the convention delegates wi II need to go through the exhibit area A. F. Gamble to get to the convention meetings and to register, plus the fact we are Denver anticipating a record number of registrations at this convention, based on a personal state-wide survey made by the secretary of the association. Terence J. Hall Also, many of our members will want to attend to visit the fabulous new Akron and architecturally prize-winning Denver Hilton. It wi II interest you to know, also, that the feed committee of our association wi 11 have a sub­ L R. Henderson Craig stantial portion of the three-day program on Monday morning, and we antici­ pate a larger number of feed dealers to attend than ever before. We are

Harold Johnson placing greater emphasis on association services for feed members than has Fort Collins been done previously, and new interest among feed men is showing up daily.

Hubert Kohlmaler As you wi II note, the four larger exhibit spaces wi II lease for $100 each Yuma for the three days, the next largest will go for $80 each, the three next largest for $75 each, and the twelve smaller ones for $65 each. M. E. Koonlt Amherst As has been our custom in years past, previous exhibitors get first choice on a first-come, first-served basis. Kenneth Y(. Lloyd Denver We are confident that you will appreciate the advantages of exhibit space in the new Denver Hi I ton better than the old system, even though costs John F. Malo Denver are a little higher. We want this letter to reach you in plenty of time so that you will have a greater opportunity to make plans for your exhibit.

Dale Reimer Holyoke If you are planning to take one of these exhibit booths or a combination of two or more, as best suits your purpose, please fi II out the applica­ Howard Stehweln tion blank on the opposite side and return as soon as possible, keeping in Mont, Vista November , l 960 Page 2 mind that choices are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. As soon as we receive the application form from you, we wi 11 send you details on shipping and handling your display.

Vlea President MEMORANDUM Del Ellis Denver TO: ALL EXHIBITORS

DIRECTORS Gentlemen: Floyd B. Borders Stratton This is a letter of explanation.

Don Briggs In order to develop the feed portion of our 36th annual convention to its Huwell ultimate goal of "How to Survive in the Feed Business", the Feed Conmittee outlined a program of speakers and information to show feed dealers how to Robert s. Davis better serve their customers, how to make a survey of their own trade areas, Colorado Springs and how to determine if they should put in mixing and bulk handling equip­ ment. In order to develop the latter point, the Committee felt they should A. F. Gamble Denver have an equipment expert to tell them what they would need in the way of equipment, and how much it would cost. Terence J. Hall Akron On December 22, 1960, we wrote to the Grain Processing Machinery Manufac­ turers Association, asking them if they would supply us with a speaker for L. R. Henderson this convention. We heard nothing from them and airmailed another request, Craig and as of January 28 we still had heard nothing. In desperation, in order to complete our program on time, we finally asked Dick Colvin, National Harold Johnson Accounts Sales Manager of the Agricultural Products Division of Butler Mfg. Fort Collini Co., to fi 11 in on this emergency and explain to the dealers what they wi I I need in the way of equipment. Naturally, he will not make any specific Hubert Kohlmaler 11 Yuma pitch" for his own equipment, but we wanted you to know that this was our situation at the last min 1 1te.

M. E. Koontt Amherst We sincerely hope this meets with your approval.

Supply Service, Inc. 1326 East Avenue "A" Hutchinson, Kansas Attn: Hr. T. S. Olehler Dear Mr. Blehler:

This is a belated letter of sincere thanks for your helpful participation In our 36th annual state convention at the Denver Hilton hotel.

The reason we have not written our heartfelt thanks earlier is because we were waiting to see if the national association would permft exhibit booths at the national convention, which will be held March 21•23, 1962 at the Denver Hilton. The executfve committee of the national association met with the Colorado erecutlve coomittee in Denver, July 8, at which time we discussed this proposal with them. They pointed out that the national convention historically has never permftted exhibition booths and they would not change this tradition for the Denver meeting. Some of you ex­ pressed hopes that you would be permitted to exhibit at the Denver national convention, and that is "'1y we have held up writing you. However, we will stage our 1963 state convention at the Hilton In late February. This time we wl11 make much better arrangements for all exhibi­ tors, both as to location of booths and participation by the delegates . We are already planning a handsome reward for delegates who visit the conven­ tion booths . Thi"s Is a method employed by other state associations witch has worked out very successfully, bot h from the standpoint of the associa­ tion and the exhibitors. So, mark your calendar now so that you will have this budgeted in your 1963 accounts, and we will be In touch with you in plenty of time. The 1961 convention turned out to be so successful according to all the reports we have had from delegates from the five urroundlng states, that we are con­ fident our 1963 conventfon will be even bigger and better.

Thank you again, and \varmes t regards, COLORADO GRAIN, HILLING AND FEED DEALERS ASSOCIATION

A question and answer period wi JI follow.

At the Monday noon luncheon, we h2.d hoped to have the new Secretary of Agriculture, Orville Freeman, or one of his assista~ts, but this does not look too hopeful at this time. But you can be sure we wi I 1 have an outstanding speaker.

Anderson, deputy direttor of Commodity Stabilization Service in Kansas City, on the grain storage situation, and Richard Schmidt, who was the attorney for the Senate Investigating Committee last year, studying grain storage rates.

The banquet this year wi 11 fea­ ture a surprise delicacy that some of you have never enjoyed before, followed by a ter­ rific entertainment by the Taylor Trio from the Taylor Supper Club, with an entirely new and sparkling show.

DIRECTORS Gentlemen: Floyd B. Borders Stratton This is a letter of explanation.

Don Briggs In order to develop the feed portion of our 36th annual convention to its Haswell ultimate goal of 11 How to Survive in the Feed Business", the Feed Committee outlined a program of speakers and information to show feed dealers how to Robert S. Davis better serve their customers, how to make a survey of their own trade areas, Colorado Springs and how to determine if they should put in mixing and bulk handling equip­ ment. In order to develop the latter point, the Committee felt they should A. F. Gamble Denver have an equipment expert to tell them what they would need in the way of equipment, and how much it would cost. Terence J. Hall Akron On December 22, 1960, we wrote to the Grain Processing Machinery Manufac­ turers Association, asking them if they would supply us with a speaker for · L R. Henderson this convention. We heard nothing from them and airmailed another request, Craig and as of January 28 we still had heard nothing. In desperation, in order to complete our program on time, we finally asked Dick Colvin, National Harold Johnson Accounts Sales Manager of the Agricultural Products Division of Butler Mfg . Fort Collins Co., to fi I I in on this emergency and explain to the dealers what they wi 11 need in the way of equipment. Naturally, he will not make any specific Hubert Kohlmeier 11 11 Yuma pitch for his own equipment, but we wanted you to know that this was our situation at the last minute.

M. E. Koontz Amherst We sincerely hope this meets with your approval.

The entertainment will fea­ ture a comedy hat show for the ladies, God bless 'em (don't forget to invite them!), a buffet-smoker, social hour, dinner dance and fabulous entertainment by the Taylor Supper Club Trio, the hottest entertainment group in Denver today.

And remember, you don't have to be a member to attend this convention. Keep in mind, also, that the convention time is somewhat shortened over previous years, with more essential information and fun packed into a day and a half.

Enclosed, for your convenience, is a copy of the program, an advance registration sheet and a publicity release. We hope, if you come to the convention, you will give this to your local newspaper the week before you leave. Be sure to fill in the blank spaces.

Anderson, deputy direttor of Commodity Stabilization Service in Kansas City, on the grain storage situation, and · Richard Schmidt, who was the attorney for the Senate Investigating Committee last year, studying grain storage rates.

The banquet this year will fea­ ture a surprise delicacy that some of you have never enjoyed before, followed by a ter­ rific entertainment by the Taylor Trio from the Taylor Supper Club, with an entirely new and sparkling show.
