FARMERS SWING

IN BOTH SWEDEN AND DEN

By ELMER w. PETERSON

STOCKHOLM, July 20.-Har-
ried by low prices, curtailed ex-
ports, and increased taxes, the
Scandinavian farmer is showing a
decided tendency to swing to the
left in politics.
In both Sweden and Denmark
the tiller of the soil has entered
into formal alliance with the
social-democrats, new stratagem
in Scandinavian politics.
The result has been a farmer
labor" front which, political OBJ
servers agree, may keep the left
wing in control for some time.
The Danish farmer was the
first to shed his conservative
coat.
Turn Toward Socialism
With the conservatives he had
ruled the senate. while the radi-
Gals and social democrats con-
trolled the chamber.

cultural relief program. however

Gently followed suit. agreeing to
salvage the social-democrats' un-
employment relief program in ex-
change for a tax on aleomargarine
and definite measures toward
raising prices on milk. butter,
meat, and vegetables.
In Norway the farmer likewise
has proved himself politically
alert. gaining control of the last
previous government and en-
gineering campaign to raise the
prices of milk and meat.
Accord Something New
The cooperation of farmer and
soeial-democrat presents a new
phase in Swedish political his
tory. The program of the social
democrats. including free trade
policies. disarmament, and at one
time. socialization of land. has
had little support in agricultural
districts. In the riksdag the
farmer members additionally
have voted with the conserva-
tives.
The press in general is inclined
to doubt that the new alliance will
be lasting. But should the ten

it is agreed that the Swedish left
wing will be definitely strength

Of putting the public debt on a
long time basis at reduced cost,
goes to the heart of a problem
that has vexed congress for long
while.
And also, it brings to the fore
again the system that Roosevelt
apparently will follow in the
working out of permanent leg
islatiye reforms.
This system apparently has
three separate and distinct divi-
sions.
The first is the planning divi-
sion. This group is composed of
the professors. or, as they are
Familiarity known around the cap

sors Rogers and Warrent are un-
derstood to represent the "brain
trust"
II will be their duty to make a
comprehensive survey of the whole
scheme of federal finances and
submit their findings and recon-
mendations to the president.
Once that is done, another
group steps in. headed by the
president himself in the capacity
of sort of political directors gen
eral.
Hold Conference
The White House summons the
congressional leaders in for con-
ference. The plan worked out by
the professors is placed before
them. II is here that ways and
means of getting the proposed leg
islation through congress are de-
vised.
= The president, presumably. not
welded to any detail Of the plan

listens carefully to the opinions
expressed by the congressional
leaders and attempts to harmonic
the views of the two groups.

He'll make concession here and

balance wheel between the polite

clan.

men expected to hew to the
line regardless in putting the law
into effect. The President keeps
his thumb on this group, to be
sure. This was evidenced by the
fact that he placed his secretary
of the interior in charge of the
gigantic public works program.
Thus Roosevelt subjects his pro.
posals TO three different groups,
each entirely different in their
makeup and none dependent on
the other.
