SOME ASPECTS OF FARMERS
PROBLEMS

Of H., Why is II not proper for a group
0f farmers 10 unite for the market
ing Of their common products, either
in one or IN several selling agon-
cios? Why should Il be right for a
hundred thousand corporate share
holders 20 direct % or 30 or 40 per
cent OF an industry. and wrong for
a hundred thousand cooperative
farmers 10 control a no larger pro-
portion Of the wheat crop, or cotton.
or any other product
The Department Of Agriculture Is
often spoken Of as special concos-
sion 20 the farmers, but in IFS COM
mercial rcsul,a, Il il Of as much ben
eft 20 the buyers and consumers Of
agricultural products as 10 the pro-
duccrs or even more. ! do not sup
pose that anyone opposes the benefits
that the farmers derive from the cdu-
cational and research work Of the de-
parimont, or the help that II gives
them in working out improved cul-
tural methods and practices, in de-
yeloping better yielding varieties

whether by the repeal Of archaic
statutes or the enactment Of modern
ones. II the antitrust laws keep the
farmers from endcavOring scientific
oally 30 integrate their industry while
other industrios find a way 10 meet
modern conditions without violating
such statutes, then it would seem
reasonable 20 find q way for the
farmers 20 meet them under the same
conditions The law should operate
equally In fact Repairing the eco
nomie structure on one side IS no
injustice % the other side, which Is
in good repair.
We have travelled o long way from
the old conception Of government as
merely q defensive and policing
agency: and rcgulative, corrective, or
eauaiizing legislation, which appar-
emily is ~ a special nature, Is often
% the most general beneficial con-
sequences. Even the First Congress
passed a tariff act that was ayowed-
" for the protection Of manufactur-
ers; but a protective tariff always
has been defended as a means Of
promoting the general good through
a particular approach; :. and the stat
ute books are filled with acts for the
benefit Of shipping, commerce, and
labor.
