''You probably read Harry Wheelock's editorial
comment in regard to my remarks before the Fergus
Falls Rotary club meeting recently. am perfectly
satisfied in my mind that as leg our surplus
or export farm products receive direct tariff bene
fits that is for the interests of farmers to oppose

farmers buy. Hoover has successfully refuted this
view. About SO0000,000 out 360,0O0,OO0
in the u S. devoted to crop production may be
termed surplus production acres.
81 in hopes surplus farm products can be
brought in under the tariff wing That is the fight
mid-western agriculture must make The farmers
themselves must help and cooperate will never be
done. Laying all this aside and without surrendering
market to cheaply produced foreign goods, be-
ieve shall gradual lowering of tariff walls,
everywhere l protectionist and expect to re-
main one but there should be sense and in all
things Monopoly controlled products, for example,
should not be given high protection and many other
inequalities should be removed Will have to get to-
gether and talk this I'm you'll not find me
willing to lower the bars for flood Of competitive i'm
ports to enter the u s."
