BY CHARLES =. STEWART

Washington, Feb. 27.-Congress
man Charles J. Esterly of Pennsy-
vania--he aims to be his states next
( lieutenant governor, by the way-ls
full of sympathy for the American
farmer, in his present troubles.
Why wouldn't he be? Hes a
farmer.
However. there are farmers and
farmers. Most Of the agricultural
lamentation we hear just now comes
from the west; some Of it from the
south. Esterly is of the eastb not
the far east, like New England. but
pretty eastern.
Hence you get from him quite
different line Of talk from the var
icty emanating in the corn belt.
Good for Esterly, for being orisi-
nal
Eastern agriculture isn't suffering
to any such extent as western.
Estcrly himself appears rather more
than moderately prosperous.
What's the reason?
His Reason
"Thc reason" explains Estcrly, is
that the west had a land boom and
the east didn't.
SO now, here in the east, we're
not so badly off.
But the wcsterner who paid for
his farm a good deal more than it
was worth and then mortgagcd it on
that basis, naturally cant get
enough for his crops to keep up with
his payments, since deflation's set
in"
Well, what's the remedy?

Esterly promptly. sis to start over
again."
Which is comforting or not, de-
pending on how you look at it,
Yet Estcrly agrees that America
agriculture, as a whole. has real
grievances. lie considers it as much
entitled to protection as the indus
tries.
True to form again---a Republican;
therefore "A protectionist.
If anything ails you, cure it with
n tariff.
But how will protection help the
American farmer? He's an exporter,
isn't he?
"Not necessarily dissented Es-
terly. I'VE import butter, for in
stance. At one time, when American
meat producers ought to have been
making money argentine IHIpoIlS
prevented it.
''In so far as protection will help
our farmers, they should have it,
Protection and Cooperation
Estcrly speaks for cooperation,
both by the farmers and their Gus
toners reducing 1.-The producer-con-
sumner price spread. giving the form
or more for what he has to sell, the
latter more for what he has to pay.
Protection and cooperation will
solve the farm problem, Esterly
thinks.
He means sectional cooperation,
not national. That, he believes.
would be top-heavy, manageable.
Nor would he have the governments
hand in unnecessary, un-Ameri-
can.
All Of these views, while farm
er's, and therefore pro-agricuitural,
are somewhat different from the bulk.
Of the farm bloc's.
They stress point or two on
which the bloc members seldom dwell.
AT best" concluded Congressman
Esterly, "agriculture's an extra haz-
ardous occupation. physically and
financially"
