LIBERALS HAVE NEW PLATFORM Promise Aid To Farmers in Saskatchewan Campaign (By The Canadian Press) Regina, Sask. -- Substantial as- sistance for debt-ridden and wea- ther-harrassed farmers is a promi- nent plank in the platform on which Saskatchewan's dethroned Liberals plan to seek a return to power, Resolutions passed at the summer convention and just issted in official form, include resolutions on land-tenure and weather-crop insurance which are far-reaching in scope. If and when the Liberals who ruled Saskatchewan until their overthrow at the polls in 1929, are sent back into control of the prov- ince's government, they promise to "make a complete survey of the re- lations prevailing between the cred- itor and debtor with a view to read- justing indebtedness both with re- gard to principal and interest in such a manner as to assure the debtor farmers the opportunity to meet their indebtedness." In view of the serious crop situ- ation in Saskatchewan and the low price for grain, particular interest centres on the stand taken by the liberal party which commands the largest group in the legislature. At- titude of the various political groups in the province are the focus of pronounced attention, although Premier J. T. M. Anderson, Con- servative head of the Co-operative government, has stated that no election will be held until 1933 at least, j Three steps must be taken while the proposed creditor-debtor survey is pending, according to the approv- cd Liberal resolution, These are: (1) To keep municipal and pro- vincial taxes down to the minimum essential to provide those services which lessen the cost of producing 2hd marketing the products of the arm; (2) To secure for the farmers of Saskatchewan interest rates as low as those whiclt can be obtained in castern Canada; and (3) To set up and perpetuate an organization which understands ag- ricultural needs and possibilities and has the confidence of the credi- tors as well as the debtors and which shall be given the power to arrange final equitable adjustments under which their financial diffi- culties can be met without dispos+ sessing the present owner. Powers accorded the debt com- missioner under. the Debt Adjust- ment aet in Saskatchewan are not wide enough, according to opinions Langmaid, home of expressed at the convention of Lib- erals, The approved resolution would extend his influence as far as to give the commissioner or commissioners "power to arrange final cquitable adjustments as be tween debtor and creditor." Actuaries and statisticians of a number of insurance companies are understood to be giving serious consideration to another resolution regarding crop insurance, passed by the - convention. . The Liberal party, which confirmed James G. Gardin as leader at its summer meet is believed to be prepared to make a crop-insurance pian a government affair, if returned to power. The official resolution on the matter stated: "The Liberal party pledges itself, as soon as it is re- turncd to power, to appoint a spec- ial committee to fully investigate | the feasibility of a system of crop |or weather insurance applicable to | the needs of the farming industry iof this province, which will l.ok toward reimbursing our farmers for {the cost of producing their yearly {'output."
