Spivey Stvdies Cooperatives At Conference “Cooperatives people buying goods or services together .of selling something together -have a powerful economic and social impact on many communities,” Wayland Spivey said today* after returning from the second national conference on emerging cooperatives in St. Louis, Mo. May 17-20. National leaders in community oraganizations, government agencies, and cooperative organizations met with local cooperative representatives from many states in exploring techniques they can use to serve their rural or urban members better. “Most cooperatives, like ours,, are small businesses and we learned the value of sound organizational methods, record keeping and management to serve our special needs as cooperatives,” said Spivey, who represented the Albemarle Cooperative Association at the conference. Sponsors were the Cooperative League of the USA, the National Sharecroppers Fund and the federal Extension Service of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. One of the credit areas examined at the conference was the need for a national consumer cooperative bank, to serve credit and technical needs of organizations not eligible to borrow for the (farmed-owned) Banks for Cooperatives. d The Albemarle Cooperative Association provides marketing service for feeder pigs and top hogs to its members in Albemarle area. It is owned by local residents who provide themselves and others with these services. Spivey is president of the board of directors of the association.
