potato as raw material, will indirect
ly accomplish the same thing. This
proposal to aid the potato grower is
simple, easily and quickly put into
effect, requires no expense or govern
ment supervision and it is practical.
Flax is an important cash crop for
which adequate protection is vital.
1t has become more important since
| scientists have overcome the wilt
problem, and Minnesota is the Sec
ond largest grower. In 1927 Mime
sofa acreage was $4,000 acres;
North Dakota, 1,242,000; South Da-
kota, $4,000; Montana, 239,OOO-a
total for the four states of 2,832,O00
acres. Our import of flax seed in
the same year represented the pro-
duction of 3,615,O0O acres. If every
one of the 39O,621 farms which, ac-
cording to the last census were in
the four states, were to grow 10 NEW
acres of flax each, they could hardly
make up the quantity now imported.
This simple method of substantial
ly benefitting the flax farmer would
bring cash assistance with the very
first crop. The increased acreage to
flax would bring its indirect results
in cutting down the acreage of those
other crops whose surplusses cause
worries.
Such tariffs on vegetable oils
as will make corn oil and other
vegetable oil production here pay
and such as will end the advan-
tages these foreign vegetable
oils have as substitutes for our
own animal and dairy fats.
Vegetable oil imports are reducing
the markets of American farms and
reducing American farm prices in
two serious ways.
First-we have native oils produc-
ed right on our own farms to take
care of our needs except the tung oil
brought in from Asia for varnish.
Efforts are now being made to grow
tung trees in Florida, these should
be encouraged. We have cottonseed
oil, corn oil, peanut oil, soybean oil,
linseed oil and the poorer animal fats.
We have these either in great album
dance or else could quickly supply
them. Every pound of vegetable oils
displaces the demand for
pound of these homegrown products. |
That is, they cut down the market of
farms. Our new uses and
demands for such oils should be
reflected on American farms. In
stead, however, the boom has been
in Manchuria, the Philippine Islands,
the West Indies, etc. Here is where
a readjustment of the tariff easily
arranged quickly possible will bring
new cash markets to American farms
and do it without waiting for the
slow process of establishing new
government departments with huge
and large additions to
the government payrolls.
Second-our industries have learn
ed how to work this imported foreign
over into substitutes for
animal and dairy fats produced on
American farms, and thus this de- |
velopment in industry cuts deeply in
to the American market for Ameri-
can farm produced raw materials.
For instance, in 1927 cocoanut oil
to the amount of 1O7,653,888 pounds
went into the making of oleomargar-
inc. A proper tariff on cocoanut oil
would tend to keep out this product

TREASURY aids
DALE BILL

Impetus for the llbera1ized civil
service retirement legislation drive
is coming from the Treasury De.
partment and other sources within
the Federal establishment.
The Dale bill creating a maximum
annuity of 81 200 will cost the Gov.
ernment less in the long run than
the present law. according to Joseph
n. Mccoy, Government actuary,
whose estimates Of Federal rev.
enues and expenditures have al.
most the authority OF Holy Writ in
Congressional circles.
The Mccoy opinion is being dis
tributed by r. II. Alcorn, chairman
of the joint conference on civil serv-
ice retirement, to members Of the
House and Senate. as is also statis-
ties from other Federal sources
showing the real magnitude Of the
retirement fund IA years hence-a
fund which will make civil service
retirement entirely independent Of
any Government aid.
The Dale bill already has passed
the Senate. It's fate depends on the
House Rules Committee, of which
Representative Smell of New York
Is chairman. The Federal person
mel will know soon the edict OF the
czars of the House to the Iegisla-
tion.
