vice, Chester H. Gray, Washington
representative Of the American Farm
Bureau Federation. In a letter made
public today. to Sam H. Thompson,
the federation president. and to the
state farm bureaus. declared no risky
experiments should be tried out on
agricultural products"
If we must experiment with a
sliding scale proposition" his letter
said, IT should be tried out on some
profitable industrial commodity like
steel. aluminium. rayon or jewelry."
He said 1T would be interesting to see
the fate Of any member Of congress
who would dare advocate q sliding
scale for any industrial commodity"
The sliding scale would mean vir-
tually price fixing" on the part Of
the federal government. 0ray's COM
~t1unication declared. 1T Is equiva-
lent to telling the American farmer
who produces sugar that his refined
product shall never 90 beyond IS q
hundred pounds"
He asserted the tariff rate would
decrease under the sliding scale plan
when the price Of refined sugar ex-
ceeds S. q hundred.
II the price should exceed 90, he
added. the tariff bars ARE let down
to such an extreme extent that for
eign sugars are invited to flood our
markets."
