The National leader., 1922-03-06

PSoASAoAAo. VII CIlC OCllC1 SOll-
gresham Davis of Minnesota, a read
er reports, has written that he is
Heartily in favor" and "sincerely
working for" the revival Of the grain
corporation. Davis defeated farmer
candidate for congress two years ago,
but has listened to his constituents.
This shows what can be done.
Senator Norris of Nebraska, Repub-
ican, and member of the farm bloc,
seems to be for price stabilization, ac-
cording to letters written by him to
our readers. But he is hesitating, ap-
parently convinced that the opposi-
tion of the Harding administration
can not be overcome. He says:
-. I was one of the few senators who be-
heved that something might be accom-
plished by reyiving the grain corporation
it would be impossible of accomplishment.
I have felt all along that what the farm
er needed needed more more than any other thing, is
products. We would have succeeded in
getting such market, if the so-called
were scattered like q flock of geese
on the proposition of loaning fed
The farmer. who had already borrowed
heavily was induced to borrow more to
hold his product, with but little chance Of
the price advancing. In time the inter-
est would eat up all his substance.
This makeshift which they put through
American farmers % want market for oqih their or
surplus, instead of chance to borrow
more money.
But Norris should fight for his con-
victions. 1t would be impossible for
any measure to be put through if it's
friends quit because they were afraid
there was "too much opposition"
