McGuire, President of the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank of St. Louis told the group, "This is the thirty consecutive year of setting a new record amount of credit extended to the more than 40,000 farmer-members of Sixth district PCAs." "These ever-increasing demands indicate that our present plans for our future must be big, bold and courageous, „ and, also, pur poseful, deliberate, and cer tain, in order to build the even stronger, dynamic institution necessary to serve ou\; farmer- members in the future," McGuire contirfued. Everett B. Harris, President of Chicago Merchantile Ex change, used a film to illustrate his idea that more and more farmers will use and view hedging as a tool to "lock in necessary and specific prices" for their products. Mrs. Dayle Deal, second vice-chairman of the Agriculture Council of America, talked about the role of women in agriculture, urging them to "get involved with agriculture, instead of just complaining about how city folks don't understand far mers." Dr. Gene Swackhamer, Deputy Governor and Director of the Office of Finance and Research, Farm Credit Ad ministration, told the directors, "There are four elements necessary for a successful partnership between a farmer and his PCA: (a) mutual ob jectives, (2) clear un derstandings; (3) mutual respect, and (4) mutual dedication." "The partnership of the Fjkrm Credit System and agriculture will continue to be successful because there is no alternative. Finance °is necessary to agriculture, and agriculture is necessary to our nation and to life itself,;; Swackhamer continued. A highlight of the conference was the honoring of Gold Award winners, the 1974 out standing PCA branch managers, and the an nouncement of the Sikeston (Mo.) Production Credit association as the "Number One Production Credit association" in the Sixth district in 1974.
