December 24, 1984 — Area Farm Crisis meetings take place in Carroll, Wayne

The emphasis of the farm crisis continues to rolla cross the Nebraska plains as the message spread by volunteers is beginning to infiltrate all aspects of business and political outlets - particularly in northeast Nebraska. Two farm crisis meetings were conducted Friday, one in the morning in Carroll in Ron's Bar and Steakhouse and another in the afternoon at Logan Valley Implement in Wayne. Tim Wrage, in speaking before 100 people at the Wayne meeting, said farmers are not going broke because they are poor operators and managers. He encouraged those present at both meetings in Carroll and Wayne to continue writing to senators and representatives in Washington and Lincoln.
