Assertion That Democratic Crit

"Bunk" Is Called "Alibi."

Chairman Legge's recent assertion
that Democratic criticism of the Fed
eral Farm Board was political bunk"
was characterized as an "alibi" by Jouett
ShouSe, chairman of the Democratic
National Executive Committee, in a
statement issued late yesterday.

Is nothing political in the almost Ma
tion-wide censure of the Farm Board
and the discrepancy between what it is
supposed to do and what it has accom-
plished except Mr.. Legge's alibi that
the structures on the performance are
political bunk"
The Democratic National Committee

Legge." he said. did not write the quo
tations of the present prices Of wheat,

Legge's Farm Boards failure to effect

industry of agriculture out of the
slough. 1t hasn't done the work.
The farmer finds himself in a worse
predicament than ever. Whether the
fault lies In the intrinsic inadequacy of
the law or In the inept executions of its
provisions by Mr.. Legge and his asso-
ciates is immaterial from the farmers
point OF view. He was promised that
the Government would help him in his
struggle, and the Government has
plunged him into greater trouble"
