Farm Commission OnIy AIibi.

Charges that the commission recently
appointed by President Coolidge to recon-
mend agricultural relief legislation lis
intended to be an abb for the failure of
the President and Congress to do anything
effective for farmers" were made by the
Farmers National Council on Monday in
statement issued through Benjamin C.
Marsh. its managing director.
This, Mr.. Marsh said. was confirmed by
the Presidents recent speech to Land
Grant Colleges. In this address. he said,
the determination OF President Coolidge
to continue blocking measures essen
tial to save agriculture, his futile re-
lance upon the protective tariff. the manu-
featuring benefciaries Of which contributed
so much to the multi-millions slush fund
which just elected him, and his complete
ignorance of agricultural problems and
conditions were tragically clear"
THE President relies upon a protective
tariff to help farmers, while even the Re-
publican protectionist Fair Tariff League
shows that the Fordney- McCumber tariff
act is net cost per capita to every one OF
the 6.540.000 farm population in ten
great agricultural States from Texas to
Washington of $42.90." the statement
continues.
The net cost Of President CooIidges pet
panaceas for poverty and debt-ridden
farmers. the profteerine tariff for manu-
facturers, cost the farmers in these ten
States S270. 498. 000-probably double the
amount they received through this years
temporary increase in prices of some farm
products.
The President prophesied that this
country would soon produce a deficit Of
farm products. The President might well
read the section Of the 1928 report OF his
Department of Agriculture on the utiliza-
ton Of our lands for crops. pasture and
forests which shows that we can main
tain domestic population Of 350.000.-
900. or more than three times our present
population.
The President evidently intends to
have farmers overproduce again while his
protective tariff kills the foreign market
for surplus American farm products. The
course will kill the Republican party in
1926"
