:'V *7? Yhunday, October 3,1940 ^ > - McNary's Views On farm Problem Amerfcmn Market and Parity Price for Farm Products ^ Will Be Party Goal. A pfomise to the farmer that he Will be assured of the American market for his products was made in an address delivered at Aurora, Illinois, by Senator Charles L. Mc- Nary, Republican candidate for Vice - President, and co-author of the McNary- Haugen bill. Senator McNary said the Republican administra- - ••••. Senator McNary tion under Wendell Will- V';* kie "will further, and by every means, seek to enlarge the American market for farm prodnets-- both by improving the consuming power of city consumers and also by encouraging the industrial uses of farm raw materials. Thirdly, it will search for a formula for freeing the American farm price from the vagaries of foreign markets; putting the farmer on the same footing with other American producers, who sell at the American-- not the world--price." Senator McNary's speech sounded the keynote of the Republican campaign on the faxm problem. He criticized the woeful failure of the Kew Deal to solve the farm problem k a permanent and effective manlier. He said, "Actually, the basic farm problen^ is no nearer solution today than it was on March 4th, 1933. The New Deal has reached none of its fundamental objectives. Its farm program is a thing of shreds and patches; settling nothing; merely putting off the day of reckoning. If I did not believe that the New Deal's 'success' could be enormously bettered, I should not-- as a farmer and a friend of the farmer--be standing before you today. If I thought that the best the Government of the United States had to offer the farmer was regimented subsistence and a permanent state of disparity, then I should despair for my country." The speaker endorsed heartily the statement, made on several occasions by Mr. Willkie, to the effect that the present form of the farm program would be continued until Something better can be developed. 1 ®e said, "I know of no one who advocates withholding from the farmer the grants he now has--soil conservation, parity payments, crop loans, and other benefits--until the prolonged emergency is past and the farmer no longer is at a disadvan- „ tege. I have many farmer friends • Jwho are gravely concerned over the deficits which these benefits--together with all the New Deal's expenditures-- are piling up for de- • ferred payment. The farm population will pay its full share in meeting these bills. Furthermore, the $ administration of these vast paternalistic enterprises leaves much to fee desired. The inevitable faults Of bureaucracy--red tape, favoritism, confusion and delay--plague these enterprises. They should be decentralized. Costs should be reduced." His direct statement giving his view en the relative meaka of the New Deal administration of the farm program and the Republican policy was as follows: "The New Deal, satisfied with its farm program, sees the aggregate improvement it has been able to make in the farmers' lot a maximum aim. I see it as a minimum. I accept that program only as a stopgap substitute for something better until something better can be provided. And 1 assert, in full confidence, that the next administration will be able to . provide something better." In further explanation of the difference between the -New Deal accomplishments and the aggressive Republican policy on the farm prob- ---fcm Senator McNary declared, "An administration worth its salt will Strive for parity prices--not parity payments. It will seek to make our Surpluses a blessing and not a curse." Regarding the results of the New Deal farm program, the ' candidate said, "Surrounded by mountainous surpluses, or reserves, the farmer has been frozen into a dependence on the government. The New Deal, as everyone knows, did not invent the farm problem. Its offense lies in the fact that, finding agriculture ill of a functional disorder, it made the disorder ehrooie. He continued, "Secretary Wallace lias renamed the agricultural surpluses. You will, of course, recall that the great gluts of wheat, corn and cotton that still plague the New Deal began as plain surpluses. Then, Id 1938, Mr. Wallace changed the HBame, but not the substance, to the •ever-normal granary'--a condition Which if not checked, seems on the iray to providing ever-normal pov- • Irty for the farmer." •* Protected Plant lbs rare South Afriean welwitschia plant is protected under the game laws of that country.

WOMEN ENLIST IN VOTE DRIVE FOR WILLKIE Miss Martia , Twenty years ago American women were preparing for their first vote in a presidential election. In Detroit, two thousand women voters from 40 states, representative of 3,000 clubs under the banner of the National Federation of Women's Republican Clubs, gave testimonial to their 1940 political *• preparedness, and their enthusiasm for the 1940 magneto ic Republican standard - bear- Wendell Willkie. * With Miss Marion E. Martin, women's division director, Republican National Committee as their leader, Republican women workers were lined up for an intensive October "doorstep drive" to carry the plea for Republican Party candidates to every household in the country. • "Get every vote in the baHot box" is the rallying slogan, adopted by over one million workers in the "Women for Willkie" campaign. In that Detroit meeting was the nucleus of the great army of workers, none of whose names evinced more interest and acclaim than a group of five distinguished wives-- Mrs. Wendell Willkie, Mrs. Charles L. McNary, Mrs. Robert A. Taft, Mrs. Arthur H. Vandenberg and Mrs. Frank Gannett. Cost of New Deal At the assessed valuation, it would take all the property of Illinois, Indiana and two-thirds of Wisconsin-- farms, buildings, mines, crops, railroads, utilities, automobiles, stocks, everything that has value--to have paid the cost of the New Deal government lor 1939.
