REPUBLICAN RECORD

Our problems of the past seven
years have been problems of re-
constructions; our problems of the
future are problems of construction.
They are problems of progress.
During these years our popuIa.
ton has increased eight percent.
Yet our national income has in
creased As percent. The number
of families has increased 100000
and we have built 100000 new
and better homes. We have
equipped 100000 more homes
with electricity, and through it
drudgery has been lifted from the
lives of women. The barriers of
time and distance have been swept
away and life made freer and
larger by the installation of 6,ooo,-
600 more telephones, 100000
radio sets and the service of an
additional 100000 automobiles.
BY rigorous economy, federal ex-
penses have been reduced two bill
lions annually. The national debt
has been reduced six and a half
billions. Taxes have been reduced
four successive times. We have
doubled savings deposits and near
ly doubled life insurance.
President Coolidge has not only
given a memorable administration,
he has left an imprint of rectitude
and craftsmanship on our country.

Program

Candidate.
FAVORS HIGHER TARIFF WALL
HOOVER ON FARM RELIEF:

An adequate tariff Is the founda-
tlon of farm relief.
Working out agricultural relief
Is the most important obligation of
the next Administration.
The object of our policies is to
establish for our farmers an income
equal to those of other occupations.
Farming is and must continue an
lndividualistic business of small
units and independent ownership.
If the farmers position is to be
improved by larger operations it
must be done not on the farm, but
in the field of distribution.
Our platform lays solid basis
upon which we can build. 1t offers
an affirmative program.
Nature has endowed us with a
great system of inland waterways.
Their modernization will comprise
a substantial contribution to mid
west farm relief and development
of 20 interior states. There is no
more vital method of farm relief.

turer, distributor, worker, and con-
sumcr have been called in council to-
gether, net for a single occasion, but
for continuous work. These efforts
have been successful beyond any ex-
pectation. They have been accom-
plishad without interference or regu-
lation by the government. They have
secured progress in the industries,
remedy for abuses, elimination of
waste, reduction of cost in production
and distribution, lower prices to the
consumer, and more stable employ
ment and profit. While the problem

out the common ground on which we
may mobilize the sound forces of agri-
cultural reconstruction. Our platform
lays a solid basis upon which to build.
1t offers an affirmative program.
Tariff and Waterways
IAN adequate tariff is the foundation
of farm relief. Our consumers increase
faster than our producers. The do
nestle market must be protected. For
elgn products raised under lower
standards of living are today compel
Ing in our home markets. l would use
my office and influence to give the
farmer the full benefit Of our historic
tariff policy.
"a large portion of the spread be-
tween what the farmer receives for
his products and what the ultimate
consumer pays is due to increased
transportation charges. Increase in
railway rates has been one of the pen
alt1es Of the war. These increases
have been added to the cost to the
farmer of reaching seaboard and for
eign markets and result therefore in
reduction of his prices. The farmers
of foreign countries have thus been in
directly aided in their competition
with the American farmer. Nature
has endowed us with a great system
Of inland waterways. Their modern
ization will comprise a most substan-
tial contribution to midwest farm re-
lief and to the development of twenty
alton includes not only the great Mis-
sissippi system, with it's joining of the
Great Lakes and of the heart of mid
west agriculture to the Gulf, but also
shipway from the Great Lakes to the
Atlantic. These improvements would
mean so large an increment in farm
ers' prices as to warrant their con-
struction many times over. There Is
no more vital method of farm relief.
But we must not stop here.
IAN outstanding proposal of the Par
ty program is the whole-hearted
pledge to undertake the reorganization
OF the marketing system upon sounder
and more economical lines. We have
already contributed greatly to this
purpose by the acts supporting farm
co-operatives, the establishment of in
termediate credit banks, the regula-
ton of stockyards, public exchanges
and the expansion of the Department
OF Agriculture. The platform proposes
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1928-08-16

to go much farther. 1t pledges the
creation of Federal Farm Board of
representative farmers to be clothed
with authority and resources with
which not only to still further aid
farmers co-operatives and pools and
to assist generally in solution of farm
problems but especially to build up
with federal finance, farmer-owned
and farmer-controlled sterilization cor
porations to protect the farmer from
the depressions and decentralization of
seasonal gluts and periodical sur
pluses.
Will Cost Money
"Objection has been made that this
program, as laid down by the Party
Platform, may require that several
hundred millions of dollars of capital
be advanced by the Federal Govern
ment without obligation upon the in
dividual farmer. With that objection
l have little patience. A nation which
is spending ninety billions year can
we'll afford an expenditure of a few
AuuuISu Lllillouo lOI q WOlhduiS plO-
gram that will give to one-third of its
population their fair share of the ma
tons prosperity. Nor does this pro-
posal put the government into bust
ness except so far as it is called upon
to furnish initial capital with which to
build up the farmer to the control of
his own destinies.
"This program adapts itself to the va
riable problems of agriculture not only
today but which will arise in the fu-
ture. l do not believe that any single
human being or any group of human
beings can determine in advance all
questions that will arise in so vast and
complicated an industry over a term
Of years. The first step is to create
an effective agency directly for these
purposes and to give it authority and
resources. These are solemn pledges
and they will be fulfilled by the Re-
publican Party. 1t is definite plan Of
relief. 1t needs only the detailed elab-
grafton of legislation and appropria-
lions to put it into force.
During my term as Secretary of
Commerce l have steadily endeayored
to build up a system of cooperation
between the government and business.
Under these cooperative actions all
elements interested in the problem Of
q particular industry such as manufac-

varies with every different commodity
and with every different part of our
great country, l should wish to apply
the same method to agriculture so
that the leaders of every phase of each
group can advise and organize on poll
cies and constructive measures. 1 am
convinced this form of action, as it
has done in other industries, can
benefit farmer, distributor and con-
sumner.
