Congress Goes to Aid
of Agricultural Industry
Lat of More Important Measures Written
Introduced and Passed by Republicans
To Assist Farmers During Crisis
II :. REPRESENTATIVE J. n. TisohE" sn"'
sAs), MEMBER HOUSE COMMITTEE
AGRICULTURE

err control law, It was written Dy ne
publicans, introduced by Republicans
and passed by Republican ma)orities.
One of the immediate and urgent
needs of the farming communities was
credit to tide them over their imme'
date crisis. In order to furnish this
credit the Republican Congress amend
ed the War Finance Corporation ACT
so as to enable that organization 10
have a revolving fund of $1,OOO,Ooo''
900 to be used exclusively in making
loans to livestock and agricultural IN
terests. Since that body began rune
tioning under its newly acquired pow
ers it has been loaning money to the
AGRICULTURAL and livestock interests OF
the United States at rate In excess
of $1,000,000 day.
One Of the earliest acts OF this Con-
gress was the appropriation OF $2,O00.-
600 to be used in the purchase OF SEED
for the drought-stricken farmers OF the
northwest. Since that time legislation
and appropriations have been made to
assist drought-stricken farmers In
other sections of the country. and also
to relieve the settlers upon reclama-
ton and irrigation projects.
Still another act of this Congress
was the increase of the available cap
ital of the Farm Loan Banks in the
sum of s25.OO0.0o0. giving the Farm
Loan Banks total revolving fund OF
$50, 100000 This bill was written by
Republicans. introduced by Repuoli'
cans and passed by Republican major
tiles in both branches Of Congress.
Modern methods in the commercial
world have demonstrated the neces-
sity of the farmers being permitted to
sell his crops under cooperative sys-
TEN, and that this might be done legal
ly and without interference or irrita-
ton, the present Congress enacted the
Cooperative Marketing Bill. This is
another bill written by Republicans,
introduced in both branches of Con-
gress by Republicans and passed by
Republican majorities.
Honorable Henry C. Wallace, Secre-
tary Of Agriculture, truly summed 1t
up when he said.
Never in the same length OF time
did Congress give more serious atten'
ton to farm needs. All OF the legisla-
ton is of a constructive character and
will be more helpful than is now
realized.

Farmers of the United States not
only comprise the largest single class
Of producers but they are the largest
single class of consumers OF finished
products of all kinds, and the largest
class of shippers. In view OF all
this, it Is essential in order that the
country as a whole be prosperous, that
the farmer as class be prosperous.
When the Republican Party came
into power in March, 1921, the agricui.
tural sections of the country we're IN
the midst of the greatest depression
they had ever experienced.
In response to general demand
from the agricultural interests the Re-
publican Congress, on May q, 1921, Az
days after the session convened. en-
acted the Emergency, or Farmers
Tariff This stopped at once the innux
of agricultural imports and saved to
the American farm producer his home
markets.
The best proof that the tariff really
protects the American farmer Is the
fact that since its operation Canada
has renewed her efforts to negotiate
reciprocity treaty that Will admit ner
agricultural products into this country
free. As further proof OF the effect.
iveness of this tariff it was renewed
November Is, 1921, by the solid vote
of the congressman representing the
agricultural States. The enactment
of this tariff was opposed by the solid
Democratic minority in both House
and Senate, with few notable excep
tons.
For more than a quarter of cen.
fury there has been demand from the
producers and consumers for control
of the packing and allied industries.
Responsive to this demand Congress
enacted such law. 1t cannot be gain
said that the livestock industry of the
United States has had better treatment
from the very day that this law began
to operate. This bill was drawn by
Republicans, introduced in both
branches of Congress by Republicans,
and passed by both branches OF Con-
gress controlled by Republicans.
For more than 40 years there has
been pending before Congress, in one
form or another, legislation to control
grain exchanges and to stop the manip
ulation of prices Of farm products
Such law has been enacted by this
Republican Congress. Like tie pack.
