C., Dec. 2.—Messages of congratulation are being received by Commissioner of Agriculture William A.

Mr. Gra ham became a member of this organi zation in 1924, and by 1926 he had ris- en to the rank of vice president, which led him to the president's office for the coming twelve months. He-suc ceeds Commissioner Berne A. Pyrke. of New York. "t am extremely gratified to learn of Commissioner Graham's election as president of the National Association of Commissioners of Agriculture," said Governor McLean today! "This is in deed an honor for the State, as well as the head of its department of agri culture, and hit has my best wishes for a happy and successful administration. Thif association should be in a posi tion to offer helpful suggertions on many national farm problems, and I am sure Commissioner Graham will work in harmony with his associates." From O. Max Gardner, of Shelby, member of the State Board of Agricul ture, came this message: "I have just heard of Mr. Graham's election, and as a citizen of the State and a member of the Board of Agri culture I am highly gratified. His election is a recognition of the State and is well merited by Mr. Graham's active and energetic interest in the ag ricultural problems of our State." . Former Governor Cameron Morri son;* who appointed Mr. Graham to office in December, 1923, after which he was nominated and elected for a term in his own right, expressed deep gratification at the Tar Heel Commis sioner's election, declaring that it was a high honor to have a North Caro linian head a national organization giv en to the considerati(\i of country wide agricultural probl/nis. Commissioner Graham's efforts in behalf of diversification as a cure for overproduction, especially of cotton, have brought him into prominence in this and other Southern States.
