RASkOB STUDYING
 FARM RELIEF IDEA
Involves Formation Of Market. ing Corporation

New York. Aug. 15 UP)-Chair- Icratc national committee is study ling a novel farm relief proposal which would involve formation of a marketing corporation by some of Governor Alfred E. Smiths wealthy friends to aid farmers.
 Under the plan, the friends would put up s2,oo0,o0o, as working capital and lend to cooperative units to finance holding of crops. The plan would become operative immediately, its design being to Of fer farmers definite farm relief dur ing the campaign.
 i The proposal was formulated by a i former farm leader. now engaged in other business. He participated in farm relief discussions at the Hous- l ton convention, and was for several years an officer in one of the large i farm organizations. He has dis. cussed the plan with prominent bankers, including Otto H. Kahn, as ! well as with Raskob.
 In presenting it, he explained 1 that those who undertake the financ. ing will lose no money, merely loan
 ing on the crop, holding it. ant
 marketing it for the best price. Th,
 plan is along lines frequently sug
 gested for farm relief, and is eco
 nomically sound he said.
 Such definite farm relief durin;
 the campaign. it's author argues
 would swing the agricultural state
 into the Smith column. Democrat
 would point 10 it as actual aid a
 the present time. and as the basi
 for legislation if the democrats ge
 in power.
 The farm leader has worked thi , plan out in detail. II would involv borrowing by cooperative units iron the corporation on their crop. : Warehouses already existing in farr communities, it was explained would be utilized. inspected unde the warehouse act. and designate officially by the agriculture depart l ment.
 The farmer would store his cro
 there, get a warehouse receipt an
 an advance on his crop. probabl 1, about 75 per cent of the markt , price at the time. When the crop ', sold, the receipt would be turne
 over to the purhcaser and 1T
 farmer would get the addition;
 money of the sale price. Financir if would be handled through the 1T s termcdiate credit banks.
 As evidence of the need of tn $ form of relief. the farm lead, 6 pointed out that wheat has droppf 65 cents since June. He eXplains $ that only a portion of the farme a will need this relief. but said tn IS those who do need it badly.
