Delay Defeats Purpose

The formula upon which the COM
mission now must act often requires
that years be consumed in reach
ing conclusion, where it should re-
quire only months. It's very purpose
is defeated by delays.
I believe a formula can be found
that will insure rapid and accurate
determination Of needed changes in
rates. With such strengthening CT
the tariff commission and of its
basis for action, many secondary
changes in tariff we'll can be left to
action by the commission, which at
the same time will give complete
security to industry for the future.
Furthermore, considerable weak
nesses on the administrative side OF
the tariff have developed, esepcial-
ly in the valuations for assessments
of duty. There are cases of under
valuations that are difficult to dis
cover without access to the books Of
foreign manufacturers, which they
are reluctant to offer.
This has become also great
source of friction abroad. There is
increasing shipment Of goods on
consignment, particularly by foreign
shippers to concerns that they con-
troll in the United States, and this
practice makes valuation difficult to
determine
I believe it desirable to furnish
to the treasury sounder basis for
valuation in these and other cases.
1t is my understanding that it Is

Measure of Justice

No discrimination against any
foreign industry is involved in equal
izing the difference in cost of pro-
duction at home and abroad and
thus taking from foreign producers
the advantages they derive from
paying lower wages to labor. In
deed, such equalization is not only
measure of social justice at home,
but by the lift it gives to our stand
ards of living we increase the de-
mand for those goods from abroad
that we do not ourselves produce.
In a large sense, We have learned
that the cheapening of the toiler
decreases rather than promotes per-
manent prosperity, because it re-
duces the consuming power of the
people.
In determining changes in our
tariff, We must not fail to take into
account the board interests of tie
country as a whole, and such inter
ests include our trade relations with
other countries. 1t Is obviously un-
wise protection which sacrifices q,
greater amount of employment i'll
exports TO gain a less amount of en-
ployment from imports.
am impressed with the fact that
We also need important revision in
some administrative phases of the
tariff. The tariff commission should
be reorganized and placed upon a
basis of higher salaries, that we may
at all times command men of the
broadcast attainments.
Seven years of experience have
proved the principle of flexible tar
if to, be practical, and in the long
view a most important principle to
maintain. However, the basis upon
which the tariff commission makes
its recommendations to the Presi-
dent for administrative changes in
the rates of duty should be made
more automatic and more compre-
hensive, to the end that the time
required for determinations by the
tariff commission shall be greatly
shortened.

Country Gives Mandate

The government has special
mandate from the recent election
not only to further develop our
waterways and revise the agricul-
tural tariff. but also to extend sys-
tenatic relief in other directions.
long have held that the multi
plic1ty of causes of agricultural de-
preston could be met only by the
creation of a great instrumentality
clothed with sufficient authority and
resources to assist our farmers to
meet these problems, each upon its
own merits.
The creation of such agency at
once would transfer the agricultural
question from the field of politics
into the realm of economics and
would result in constructive action.
The administration is pledged to
create an fundamentally that will
investigate the causes, find sound
remedies, and have the authority
and resources to apply those rene
dies.
The pledged purpose of such fed
eral farm board is reorganization Of
the marketing system on sounder
and more stable and more economic
lines. To do this, the board will re-
quire funds to assist in creating and
sustaining farmer-oWned and farm
er-controlled agencies for a variety
OF purposes, such as the acquisition
of adequate warehousing and other
facilities for marketing; adequate
working capital to be advanced
against commodities lodged for
storage; necessary and prudent adj

Other Needs Cited

In addition to these special pro-
visions in the direction of improved
returns, the board should be Or
ganized to investigate every field of
economic betterment for the farm
er so as to furnish guidance as to
need In production, to devise meth
DDS for elimination of improbable
marginal lands and their adapta-
ton 20 other uses, to develop indus
trial products, and to survey a.
score of other fields of helpfulness.
Certain safeguards naturally must
surround these activities and the
instrumentalities that are created.
Certain vital principles must be adj
hered to, that we may not under
mine the freedom of our farmers
and of our people as whole by
bureaucratic and governmental
domination and interference.
We must not undermine initia-
tive. There should be no fee or tax
imposed upon the farmer. No gov
ernmental agency should engage in
the buying and selling and price
fixing Of products, for such courses
can lead only to bureaucracy and
dominating.
Government funds should not be
loaned or facilities duplicated where
other services of credit and facili-
ties are available at reasonable
rates. No activities should be set
in motion that will result in increas-
ing the surplus production, as such
will defeat any plans of relief.
The most progressive movement
in all agriculture has been the up
building of the farmers own
marketing organizations, which now
embrace nearly two million farmers
in membership and annually dis
tribute nearly $2,5000O0,000 worth
Of farm products.
The organizations have acquired
experience in virtually every branch
of their industry, and furnish sub
stantial basis upon which to build
further organization. Not all these
marketing organizations are of the
same type, but the test of them is
whether they are farmer owned or
farmer controlled.
To strengthen and not to under
mine them, all proposals for gov
ernmental assistance should origin
ate with such organizations and be
the result OF their application.
Moreover, by such bases of organi-
cation the government will be
removed from engaging in the bust
ness OF agriculture.
The difficulties of agriculture can
not be cured in day; they can not
all be cured by legislation; they
can not be cured by the federal gov
eminent alone. But farmers and
their organization can be assisted
to overcome these inequalities.

Behind Other Industries

The general result has been that
our agricultural industry has not
kept pace in prosperity or standards
of living with other lines of indus
try.
There being no disagreement as
to the need of farm relief. the prob
lem before US becomes one of
method by which relief may be
brought about most successfully.
Because of the multitude of causes
and because agriculture is not one
industry. but a score of industries,
We are confronted not with a single
problem, but great number Of
problems.
Therefore, there is no single plan
or principle that generally can be
applied. Some of the forces work
ing on the detriment of agriculture
can be n1itigated greatly by inprov-
ing our waterway transportation,
some by readjustment of the tariff;
some by better understandings and
adjustment of production needs;
and some by improvement in
methods of marketing.
An effective tariff upon agricul-
tural products that will compensate
the farmers higher costs and higher
standards of living has a dual .pUr-
pose. Such a tariff not only pro-
tects the farmer in our domestic
market. but also stimulates him to
diversity his crops and to grow
products that he otherwise could not
produce, and thus lessen his depend
ence upon exports to foreign mar
ketS.
The great expansion Of production
abroad under the conditions I have
mentioned renders foreign COMPETE
ton in our export markets increas-
ingly serious. It seems but natural,
therefore, that the American farmer.
having been handicapped greatly in
his foreign market by such conlpeti-
ton from the younger expanding
countries. should ask that foreign
access to our domestic markets
should be regulated by taking into
account the difference in our cost
of production.

- The tert of President
Hoouor's message to the spe-
ciaL session of congress today
f0uoWS:
7 have called this special session
of congress to redeem two pledges
given in the last election-farm re-
lief and limited changes in the
tariff.
The difficulties of the agricultural
industry arise out of multitude OF
causes. A heavy Indebtedness was
inherited by the industry from the
defation processes of 1920. Dis
orderly and wasteful methods Of
marketing have developed.
The growing specialization in the
industry has for years been increas-
ing the proportion of products that
now leave the farm and in conse-
quence prices have been depressed
unduly by congested marketing at
the harvest or by the occasional
climatic SURPRISES.
Railway rates necessarily have in
creased. There has been a growth
of competition in the world markets
from countries that enjoy cheaper
labor or more nearly virgin soils.
There was a great expansion OF
production from our marginal land
during the war and these profitable
enterprises under normal conditions
! can not be maintained.
Meanwhile, their continued output
tends to aggravate the situation.
Local taxes have doubled and in
some cases trebled. Work animals
have been replaced steadily by
mechanical appliances, thereby de-
creasing the consumption of farm
products. There are many other
| contributing causes.

cultleS Of which we now are aware,
and to create an agency through
which constructive action for the
future will be assured.
In this treatment Of this problem
we recognize the responsibility of
the people as a whole. and we shall
lay the foundations for a new day
in agriculture, from which we shall
preserve to the nation the great
values of its individuality and
strengthen our whole national fab
ric.
In considering the tariff for other
industries than agriculture, we find
that there have been economic shifts
necessitating readjustment of
some of the tariff schedules. Seven
years of experience under the tariff
bill enacted in 1922 have demon
strated the wisdom of congress in
the enactment of that measure.
On the whole, it has worked we'll.
In the main, our wages have been
maintained at high levels; our eX-
ports ana imports nave steadily IN
creased; with some exceptions our
manufacturing industries have been
prosperous.
Nevertheless, economic changes
have taken place during that time,
which have placed certain domestic
products at disadvantage and new
industries have come into being, all
of which creates the necessity OF
some changes in the schedules and
in the administrative clause of the
laws as written in 1922.
1t would seem to me that the test
of necessity for revision is in the
main whether there has been a
substantial slackening of activity IN
an industry during the last few
years, and a consequent decrease of
that industry.
1t is not as if We were setting up
a new basis of protective duties. We
did that seven years ago. What we
need to remedy now is whatever
substantial loss of employment that
may have resulted from shifts since
that time.
