zahnd, indianapolis, national chair
man. The workers go among their
friends and sell" the Greenback

pledges to support the Greenback

AID TO BE SENT
|CE-B0UND ISLE
400 Marooned Fisher Folk
Have Supplies Now
for Four Days.

By Untted Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Another
trip to take food and medicine to
fisher-folk on the ice-locked Tangier
Island in Chesapeake Bay was
planned today by Red Cross Of
ficials.
Supplies delivered yesterday by the
dirigible Enterprise can last only two
or three days. If the bay remains
clogged through that time the 140O
persons on the island must meet a
new emergency.
The blimp was loaded with 1900
pounds of provisions after other
means of reaching the marooned
settlement proved futile. A land
ing on the ice was made 100 yards
off the shore.
Packages of flour, BEANS coffee
and canned goods were passed out
to 200 persons who gathered about
the blimp. Commander Karl Lange
who piloted the ship, said the resi-
dents told him that their own food
supplies could not have lasted more
than one day.
A strong wind made the 150-mile
round trip hazardous. The island
has no landing field, and the ice is
too thin to permit heavy planes to
land. A light plane landed yester-
day with medical supplies.
Another rescue attempt succeeded
when Robert Guy, George Evans ana
Oscar Bailey dragged a skiff with
provisions 10 miles across the ice.
Coast Guard cutters, aided by ice
breakers, battered their way through
the eight-inch layer of ice, but hac
not been able to reach the island.

How 1t Would Work

nestle market.
How 1t Would Work
Thereafter the Secretary would
compile list of manufactured and
manufactured imported articles
purchased in the normal course of
their business by the producers Of
the basic crops. The tariff COM
mission would compute the average
rate Of taxation levied against these
imports. Here is the nub of the
bill, explaining how the farmer gets
his benefit in a tariff equivalent
certificate:
Each producer of basic agri-
cultural commodity shall be entitled
to have issued to him tariff equiv
alent certificates covering the do
nestle consumption percentage of
amounts of the commodity which
he markets during any marketing
year for the commodity. The face
value of any certificate shall be an
amount equal to the sale price of
the amount of the commodity in re-
spect of which the certificate is
issued, multiplied by the tariff
equivalent"
For example: Assume that the
Tariff Commission determined the
average of customs duties levied on
manufactured and manufactured
articles purchased by wheat pro-
ducers to be 30 per cent. Then as
sumo that a Kansas wheat rancher
has produced 100000 bushels and
that the prevailing price is 81 a
bushel. Assume, further. that 70
per cent of the American wheat
production is to be consumed in the
domestic market, or that 10000
bushels of this particular farmers
wheat shall be consumed in the
United States. Multiply the price he
received for his 10000 bushels by
the average of customs duties COM
puted by the Tariff Commission, in
this instances 80 timse $4,000. The
resulting $4,000 represents the face
value of the tariff equivalent GER
tificate to be issued to the farmer.
1t would be redeemable at the
Treasury or any Federal fiscal office.
The sum would represent a pay
ment to the farmer in compensation
for his inability to obtain in the
world market the 81 per buShel
domestic price for the 10000 acres
of wheat which could not be alb
sorbed by the American people.
