WE. 4277 ywwwwwwvAmv “The American farmer would like to see a s'milar deal worked out in which he could enjoy trade advantages at this same ratio of five dollars worth of exports for one dollars worth of imports, “I'm all in favor of making con cessions to improve trade— even free trade if that were possible— but I don't th'nk agricultural mar kets should be curtailed for the benefit of some manufacturing in dustry. If we are going to make concessions on an agricultural commodity the least that we can do is to see that some other farm product is benefited by the con cession. But instead we vote bount’es & -ubsidies to the farmer in order to create an artificial shortage of crops and products. We let out side sugar come, in and curtail the acreage of domestic sugar beets; black strap molasses for alcohol is admitted; and cattle came from Canada so we can send automo b'les there. But the farmer wants markets and not subsidies. “The encouragement of inter national trade is obviously one of the solutons to the world’s pro blems but Che necessary should not all be a>t the expense of agriculture which after all is our country’s largest industry. “We ara starving the patient and at the same time giving him showt in the arm.” -0O0--— Bill’s Loan Bank AND MERCHANDISE STORE Confidential Loans at Reasonable Rates Unredeemed Quality Merchan dise at a Great Reduction.
