GUARANTEED CROP
PRICES PROPOSED
E. T. Meredith Suggests U. S.
Set Minimum Price Year
in Advance.
BY the Associated Press.

DES MONIES, Iowa. January 81
A plan for the stabilfZation OF farm
production prices. through price-fixing
at crop planting time. will be submit
ted by f. T. Meredith, formerly Secre-
tary of Agriculture, to the Corn Belt
Farm Belt Relief Conference meeting
here tomorrow.
Mr.. Meredith urges the placing of
the farmer on the same basis as the
manufacturer with regard to the price
he Is to be given for the article he Is
expected to produce.
No other producer, he argues. would
contract a years output of his plant
at a price to be established a year
hence. nor should the farmer be com
PEELED to operate under such a condi-
ton.
Supply and Demand.
My proposal" he said. lis to inter
pret the law of supply and demand
through the medium of price, telling
the farmers what the minimum price
will be for their next years production
and then guaranteeing that price for
their farm products.
The price for five or six standard
farm products-wheat, corn, cotton.
wool, sugar and perhaps butter
should be fixed, said Mr.. Meredith.
only high enough to produce the
quantity of crop desired and low
enough so that the crop may not be
so profitable it Will cause the farmers
to produce "a surplus above the guam
tity demanded by consumers"
The plan would enable the farmer
to decline to sell his wheat at any
price lower than the Government fixed
sum, thus causing Il market activity
which would bring the price up to or
over the minimum. At the end of the
crop year. the year following. the Gov
ernment would purchase what. if any.
of the crop was left III the farmers
hands and dispose Of it at the best
possible price.
Might Cost L. S. s100.000,000.
Even If the Government had to
spend 100000, 900 in disposing of the
carry over, said Mr.. Meredith. that
sum would be only one-twenty-f1fth of
the tariff tax and only 81 per person
in return for the 6l2 bushels of wheat
which each person in America expects
the farmer to raise for him. After two
or three years experience in setting
the minimum figures for the crops the
prices could be so closely adjusted
that farmers unable to produce a GER
tain crop at that price would be forced
into other lines more suited TO their
situation. bringing about a much
needed diversification.
No committee would raise prices for
next years crop. in the face of sur
plus. said Mr.. Meredith, nor would
they lower prices in the face of a
shortage causing a reduction in pro
duction which would make the con
Sumer'S cost excessive.

ALBANY, January 27.-Members
of the Legislature viewed with
considerable amusement tonight

Failing to receive proper attention,
Cuevas appealed to the governor
for the removal of the district at
torney and when no action was
forthcoming the petitioner decided
he would request the removal of
the executive.
