the platform Of the opposing party.
The provision Of adequate credit
at reasonable rates that have Just
mentioned will encourage farm
ownership. Our program Of con-
servation will enable the man living
on his own land to maintain the
productivity of that land and
thereby remain a self-supporting
citizen. Our cash benetits, as 4
said, will be limited to the proouc-
ton level of the family type farm.
The Republican party. in other
words, does not believe in having
our farms operated by large cor
porate enterprises.
Duty Of Government to
Preserve Family Farms"
1t Is our conviction that 1t is the
duty of the Government to preserve
the family type Of farm for all time
preserve 1t as home and as q
source Of livelihood. We should
make it possible for the farm wife
to enjoy the comforts of modern
labor saving devices. We snouId
make it possible for farm children
to have the same educational op-
portunities as city children. We
should make it possible for our boys
and girls Of the All Clubs and yo-
cational classes to inherit an agri-
culture worthy Of their ideals and
aspirations.

realize that there are difficulties.
But insurance companies are writ
ing policies today covering risks
that they did not consider feasible
a few years ago. believe that
the question Of crop insurance
should be given the fullest atten-
ton.
We need also to resume our
once remarkable progress in intro
ducing new crops for the use Of our
lands. This work seems to have
slowed down. Yet 1t Is exactly
what the Department of Agricul-
ture should now be pushing.
Not only must we take care of
the problems of the land. but we
must develop more domestic de-
mand and different uses for the
products of the land. I am far
more interested in seeing farmers
paid for growing the things We
know we need than in paying them
for not growing the things we
think We don't need.
Triple A Is Held
No Permanent Policy.
Most of us co-operated with the
triple A in its early days, since we
had been promised it was only an
emergency measure. 1t was the
only important agency working
for the relief of the farm at that
time, and it was entitled to a fair
trial.
But as the program progressed,
we discovered that the administra-
ton was trying to stretch the
triple A into a means for the per-
manent control of American agri-
culture from Washington. I can
not agree with such a policy. I
cannot agree with the President.
believe the American farmer
should be "a lord on his own farm"
We were promised that the triple
A would be quickly replaced by a
sound, longtime program.
But instead. after crop reduc-
ton we had crop adjustment. then
more crop shifting under the soil
conservation and domestic allot-
ment act. The conservation plan
was not conservation, 1t was a
stopgap. a subterfuge. Any one
going through the present mixup
in an effort to qualify for a check
will agree with me! Nobody was
fooled, least Of all the farmer.
Now something else has just been
announced. Like the automobile
manufacturers. the administration
believes in bringing out a new
model every year.
Administration Seen
Without q Farm Policy.
What Is the farm policy OF this
administration? In my opinion
it has none. After being in power
for nearly four years, the admin
istration Is still without settled.
workable. national policy for ag-
riculture. It's right back where
it started from!
Evening star., 1936-09-23

Government spending is going on.
The national debt has now reached
the stupendous figure of $4,000.
100000 and 1t Is increasing every
minute.
Let us look at this proposition
candidly. This increasing debt can
be paid only by taxation If this is
to remain an honest Government.
Taxes add to the cost of everything
and the farmer is so situated that
he cannot escape their penalty.
Further. the taxes reduce the abil-
ity Of the consumer to buy the
products of the farm. The Repub-
lican party proposes to put an end
to the present waste and extrava-
gance.
So much for the main provisions
of the program which we propose
for American agriculture. 1t is
program based upon the same
principles that farmers have urged
for years. 1t follows in the same
burrows that were plowed at the
meetings Of the Corn Belt Commit
tee here in Des Moines. 1t offers
a practical means to attain what
We have been seeking-a free and
independent agriculture. Today,
AZ farms out of every 100 are OPP
Grated by tenants. Our national
welfare demands that the situation
be corrected. If history teaches us
anything, 1t teaches that the sta
bility of civilization depends upon
ownership of the land by the man
who works the land.
Adequate Credit
at Reasonable Rates."
1t is our pledge to extend within
the limits Of sound finance ade-
quate credit at reasonable rates to
capable tenants and experienced
farmers for the purchase or re-
financing of farm homes.
You will see that everything I
have said points to- but one end
that is, the protection Of the FAM
lily type farm. This philosophy
runs like a thread through the Re-
publican platform. 1t Is in keep
ing with the American tradition,
which is based upon preserving
individual opportunity. But you
will not find 1t even mentioned in
Evening star., 1936-09-23
production level of the family-type

production level Of the family-type
farm.
We are pledged by our platform
I quote: ITO provide, In the case
of agricultural products of which
there are exportable surpluses. the
payment of reasonable benefits
upon the domestically consumed
portion of such crops, in order to
make the tariff effective" This
means that our farmers will receive
an American and not o foreign
price for their products.
This is the first time this prin-
ciple has been put forward by
major political party. Such pro-
lection is simply common fairness
to the farmer. 1t will act as in
surance until long time programs
OF surplus removal and land use
can be brought into effect.
I will stand by this pledge. In
doing so, shall call on the states
manship of both parties and will
consult and work with responsible
farmers and farm leaders.
Farmer to Receive
Equivalent of Tariff.
We're going to see to it that the
farmer whose crops have to be
sold on a world market gets the
equivalent of a really effective
tariff. One thing We have learned
from past experience is this: We
cannot let temporary surpluses
destroy the standard OF living OF
the farm family.
As part of the plan for removing
the depression effect Of surpluses
shall propose an amendment to
the Federal warehousing act so that
reserves of feed. such as corn, can
be carried on the farm. We have
learned from painful experience
that the overfilled crib may quickly
become the empty crib. 1t is to
the advantage of both the producer
and the consumer-and the farmer
is both when it comes to feed crops
that these conditions be evened
out as much as possible.
Under this amendment the farm
er who stores his grain on the
farm, in such way as to make it
insurable, will be entitled to a Fed
eral warehouse receipt. He then
will be eligible to borrow from any
banking agency. He will enjoy the
same credit facilities as are avail
able to owners of grain stored in
terminal markets. The grain
would be stored on the farm. ready
for use or sale at any time the
farmer cares to take up the loan.
Crop Insurance
To Get Fullest Attention"
I am now going to mention a
subject that Is in neither plat
form-crop insurance. 1t is a
question in which We have long
been interested in Kansas In
fact. some of our Republican lead
ers in farm legislation have been in
the forefront in working it out. We
Evening star., 1936-09-23

Soil conservation-real conser-
vation-is q subject close to my
heart. In Kansas we link soil con-
servation with water conservation
and flood control into q correlated
program.
More than two years ago I sug-
gested to the present administra-
ton a comprehensive program to
be administered through joint
State and Federal action. I re-
quested that the Federal Govern
ment take leadership in these
policies as a part of its drought
program.
This was not done, but In Kan
sas We went ahead anyway, making
effective use of Federal funds pro-
vided for work relief by building
ponds, by digging public wells for
farms, and constructing State
wide system Of lakes and municipal
reservoirs.
This work, backed by sound land
policies, has given Kansas a real
start in the direction of conserva-
tion. OF course much remains to
be done. But we know as result
Of this experience that there is
such a thing as spending money
wisely.
VIII Be Purpose to
Cooperate With States.
It will be my purpose to cooper
ate with the States in putting into
effect real conservation program
along broad lines. But We will not
do this at the expense of dairy
and live stock producers.
Where the farmer is unable to
afford proper conservation prac-
tices cash payments should be
made for actual performance.
There should be State participa-
ton in the program. with the local
administration in the hands Of
farmers themselves.
Conservation is an inseparable
part OF a national land-use pro-
gram. Through such a program
we can bring our farm plant into
proper balance and gradually shape
our land resources to their right
uses.
The program we propose will
put an end to the policies of this
administration Of trading of the
American farmer. 1t will make
necessary giving away the equiva.
lent of 25,000,00o acres to foreign
ers. 1t will prevent the importa-
ton of pork products from 16 diff
ferent countries. 1t will eliminate
all excuse for paying s785.000 in
one year to sugar corporation. or
s155,000 to a packing company
for its hog operations, or 1901 900
to a British-owned cotton company.
And 1T no longer will be possible
for a corporation farmer to rent
Government controlled Indian land
and get s51 900 subsidy. or for a
garbage feeder to get 100 times as
much as a good corn belt farmer.
Debt and Taxation
Held Impending Dangers.
There Is one more important
point in our program I wish to
emphasize. This. that We shall
free the farm and the rest of the
country from the impending dan
gers of ruinous debt and taxation"
