FARM BLOC PLANS
, FIGHT ON TARIFF
Will Force Aid for Farmers
or Open U. S. to Imports,
Senator Capper Says.
BY e.. GOULD LINCOLN.

Solution of the farmers problem or
an eventual revolt by the farmers
against the protective tariff are the
alternatives confronting the Repub-
lican Congress and administration, in
F the opinion of Senator Capper of Kan
sas, chairman of the farm bloc" who
has just returned to Washington from
the Middle West.
Senator Capper does not regard the
solution of the farm problem as an
/ impossibility by any means. however.
He believes that Congress has it in its
power to be very helpful. The two
angles from which the problem must
be attacked. he said yesterday. are:
l. Better marketing systems.
,. Disposition of the surplus crops
- as not to force domestic prices be
low reasonable rates.
The plan worked out by representa-
tives of the cooperative marketing or
TrniZationS and Secretary Jaro..Ic or
the Department of Agriculture should
be of great assistance in handling the
crops for the market" Senator Cap
per said. This plan contemplateS the
establishment of a division of CO.
operative marketing in the Depart
ment OF Agriculture, as | understand
il. which shall put the power of the
Government behind the cooperative
ment in every legitimate way.
Marketing Now Problem.
The Government has done great
deal for the farmers in the past by
aiding them through the Department
of Agriculture in the matter of pro
duction. Production is no longer a
problem for the American farmer.
But marketing his crops 30 advantage
Is another matter entirely and one
i'll which the farmer ueedS assistance.
/ believe that legislation to carry out
the plans developed by the cooper
atives and Secretary ,Tardine should
be enacted into law at The coming SeS-
sion of Congress.
The CU-operatiVeS themselves are
opposed to Government regulation
though they would welcome Govern
ment aid and the Acknowledgements
that the Government is back If this
movement for better marketing OF
the crops. As matter of fact, the
co-operatives, while they already han
die large amount of business. are
still in their infancy. They need the
leeway which they might not have
under Government regulation; which
might tend to Stitie their advance.
Senator Capper said that there is
a feeling among the farmers that
industry and labor have been fos-
tered in this country through legis-
lation and Government aid which has
placed both industry and labor in
commanding positions. The farmer
believes that something should he
done to turn the prosperity spout in
his direction. The protective tariff.
while it has aided the farmers in
specific instances. such as wool grow
ing, has not been SO successful in
aiding the farmer in the production
and disposition of the great staple

Opposes Price Fixing.

y am against price fixing by the
Government" said Senator Capper.
But 1t is clear that something must
he done to meet the problem of the
surplus crops. The farmers say now
that they are buying in a protected
market and that they sell very largely
in a world market. They want some
thing done to do away with the dis
crepanCy between the purchasing
power of the farmers dollar and the
dollar of the manufacturer and the
industrial worker"
Senator Capper said that in his
opinion If this matter was not handled
: effectively. within two or three years
the farmers of the West and Middle
West probably would turn their backs
on the Republican tariff and insist
upon buying as well as selling in Il
world market.
The Democrats have tried for some
time to win the farmers over to their
low tariff ideas. and they plan 10
make the tariff an issue in the next
campaign.
Conditions have improved very
greatly for the farmers of the country
over what they were two years ago.

Tariff Wall Futile.

"A tariff wall might be reared so
high that grains from other coun-
tries. Canada Russia and the ArGen-
tine, for example. would be kept en-
tiI'eIy out of the American market"
he said. In that event The domestic
market would be in the hands OF the
American producers. But when the
crops in this country arc good. there
is a surplus which must he sold
abroad. 1t * true that if the prices
obtained in the domestic market were
good. the farmers could probably af-
ford to sell their surplus abroad at
lower rates. Indeed. that was what
was really contemplated in the Nc
Nary Haugen bill. which provided for
Government export corporation to
handle the eXpol table surplus of farm
products. This corporation was to
acquire the surplus Of the crops pro
duCCd here ana hold them or sell them
in foreign markets.
In this way, it was believed. the
domestic market would consume the
crops at good prices up to the sur
plus point. When the Government
corporation disposed of the surplus,
if it became necessary 10 sell them at
prices lower than those paid by the
corporation for them, the difference
was to be assessed against the pro-
ducers. The belief was that the pro-
ducerS would be able to meet this
difference from the higher prices
which they obtained in the home
market, brought about by the action
of the export corporation in taking
over the surplus and preventing
glaL of the home market

fearing that it was too complicated
and would put the Government too
deeply in the business Of buving and
selling farm products. He said how
ever. that a modification of this plan
undoubtedly would be brought for
ward in the coming Congress.
