The Farmers Gold Brick

One of o. Henrys stories is about modern
farmer who only smiled at the clever new devices OF
a city slicker who endeavorng to separate him
from his money. But when the scker brought out
the old familiar gold brick the farmer weakened and
bought it, He knew it phony, but he just couldn't
resist the familiar lure.
The tariff activities of some of the farm organiza-
ton leaders in Washington remind of this farmer
The farmed can be benefited by the tariff in only
two ways: Lower rates manufactured products may
lower the prices of what he has to buy, effective
high rates on what he raises and sells may increase
his income.
The catch is in the word reflective" High tariff
rates we're given the farmer in the 1922 tariff act,
which also gave industry high rates. But according
to economists, notably DR.. John R. Commons of the
University of Wisconsin and his colleagues, who just
have completed special study of the tariffs on farm
products these high rates. for the majority of farm
products are absolutely useless.
The explanation is simple Of most major farm
crops such as corn wheat pork, etc. our farms pro-
duce so much that the people of the United States
can not buy and use them ALL and the surplus must
be sold abroad.
For this surplus we get only what the world will
pay and the world price tends to set the price here
at home Unless and until farmers raise only enough
for the United States to consume, tariff rates can be
sky-high with little or no effect on prices.
The farmers leaders assert with justice that the
present set-up is unfair to the farmer, compelled 10
pay tariff inflated prices on practically all tnat ne
uses but compelled to sell most OF his crops at 10"
world prices. They have asserted with justice that
the present tariff bill raises industrial rates more
than agricultural rates. making conditions even more
unfair to the farmer.
But their remedy shows they still grasp for the
gold brick. They demand higher and higher tariffs
ON more than score of farm products, and they
apparently are willing to let industry grab all II
pleases. provided they can grab the gold brick.
This is hardly inspired leadership.
