Stands by Pledge

I will stand by this pledge. In
doing so, I shall call on the states
manship of both parties and will
consult and work with reSpon-
sible farmers and farm leaders.
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 de-
stroy the standard of living of the
farm family.
AS part of the plan for remov-
ing the depression effect of sur
pluses, shall propose an amend
ment to the Federal Warehous1ng
act so that reserves of feed. such
as corn, can be carried on the
farm. We have learned from
painful experience that the over
filled crib may quickly become the
empty crib. 1t is to the advantage
of both the producer and the con-
sumer-and the farmer is both
when it comes to feed crops-that
these conditions be evened out as
much as possible.
The Washington times., 1936-09-23
Hits AAA Plan

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.
Most of us co-operated with the
triple A in its early days, since
we had been promised it was only
an emergency measure. It was
the only important agency work
ing 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 Admins
tration was trying to stretch the
triple A into a means for the per-
manent control of American agri.
culture from Washington. can,

The Washington times., 1936-09-23
Future Farm Plans

Now I turn to our policies which
deal with the future.
For many years farmers pro-
ducing crops of which there is
normally an exportable surplus
have worked under a handicap.
I mean such stable products as
hogs, wheat, cotton and tobacco.
The surplus is sold on world
markets and the price of the en-
tire crop is affected by what the
surplus will bring. Tariff pro-
lection for these products, gen.
orally speaking, is ineffective. ex-
cept when there is a shortage.
This handicap has become in
creasingly severe in recent years.
Today, policies of foreign ma
tionS are shaped principally by
imperialistic aims and the fears
they create. World markets are
largely closed to our agriculture
surpluses. Our foreign competi-
tors are aided by government
subsidies.
So long as this is the case, the
cards are stacked against our
farmers,
The Washington times., 1936-09-23

grain would be stored on the farm,
ready for use or sale at any time
the farmer cares to take UP the
loan.
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
leaders in farm legislation have
been in the forefront in working
on it. We realize that there are
difficulties. But insurance COM
panieS are writing policies today
covering risks that they did not
consider feasible a few years ago.
I believe that the question of crop
insurance should be given the full
est attention.
We need also to resume our
once remarkable progress in in
PRODUCING new crops for the use
of our lands. This work seems to
have slowed down. Yet it is ex-
actly what the Department of
Agriculture should now be push
ing,
The Washington times., 1936-09-23
Platform Pledges

I know that these aims cannot
be realized overnight. Miracles are
no more common in Washington
than they are in Des Moines. To
get q real solution we must have
a well-rounded progam-a pro-
gram that will meet, not only the
present emergency, and the imme-
diate future, but also the long
time pull!
The Republican platform offers
just such a program. BY it we are
pledged:
To meet to the fullest extent,
the present distress caused by the
drought.
To make the farm standard Of
living secure, by protecting the in
come of the farm family.
To guard the food supply of the
nation by preserving our soil and
other natural resources through
sound conservation and land-use
policies.
To protect the farm and the rest
Of the country from ruinouS debt
and taxation.
This program not only takes
care of the present, it not only
safeguards the farm family while
we are working toward the neceS-
gary adjustments of the future,
but it provides a settled, workable,
national policy for agriculture.
The Washington times., 1936-09-23

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 off the
American farmer. It will make
unnecessary giving away the
equivalent Of 25,000,000 acres to
foreigners. 1t will prevent the
importation of pork products from
Is different countries. 1t will
eliminate all excuse for paying
$785, 900 in one year to q sugar
corporation, or $155, 900 to pack
ing company for it's hog opera
tions, or $301,0 900 to a British
owned cotton company. And it no
longer will be possible for a cor
poration farmer to rent Govern
ment-controlled Indian land and
get $4,000 subsidy, or for a gar
bage feeder to get 100 times as
much as a good corn-belt farmer.
There is one more important
point in our program I wish to
emphasize. This: that we shall

Points to Mirup

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 q
Stopgap, a Subterfuge. Anyone 60
ing 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 auto
mobile manufacturers. the Admin
iStration believes in bringing out
a new model every year.
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 a settled,
workable, national policy for agri-
culture. It's right back where it
started from.
Soil conServation-real conser-
vation-iS subject close to my
heart. In Kansas we link soil con-
servation with water conservation
and flood control into correlated

More than two years ago I sug-
gested to the present Administra-
tion 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 it's drought
program.

Sonable benefits upon the domesti-
cally consumed portion of such
crops, in order to make the tariff
effective" This means that our
farmers will receive an Ameri-
can and not a foreign price for
their products.
This is the first time this princi-
pie has been put forward by a
major political party. Such pro-
lection is simply common fairness
to the farmer. It will act as in
Surance until longtime programs
of surplus removal and land use
can be brought into effect.
The Washington times., 1936-09-23
Reasonable Benefits

Sometime there again will be
normal world conditions. In the
meantime, those of our farmers
with exportable surpluses will re-
main at a disadvantage with our
other producers.
The Republican party proposes
to offset these disadvantages by
the payment of cash benefits.
These cash benefits will be linn
tied to the production level Of
the family type farm.
We are pledged by our plat
form-I quote: "To provide, in
the case of agricultural products
of which there are exportable
surpluses, the payment Of rea-

Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gen.
tlemen:
We are here for frank discus
sion Of the needs Of farming. You
want to know what policies the
farmers can count on from the
Republican party. MY purpose Is
to tell you.
Most of my life, private and
public, has been spent in close
contact with farmers. For four
years I have had the honor Of be-
ing governor Of a great agricul-
tural State. I know the aSpira-
tions Of farm folks. They want to
have the same chance and the
same protection in the market as
other American industries. They
want a settled, workable, national
policy for agriculture. And I know
that above all else they want no
system which penalties plenty
and rewards scarcity. The Amer
lean farmer wants to produce
without fear.
There is no greater satisfaction
than in owning the piece Of land
that a man and his family call
home. There is a feeling of part
nership in a common undertaking
among husband and wife and chill
dren that is more possible on the
farm than anywhere else.

policies has given Kansas a real
start in the direction of conserVa-
ton. Of course much remains TO
be done. But we know as a result
Of this experience, that there is
such a thing as spending money
wisely.
It will be my purpose to CO.
operate with the States in putting
into effect a real conservation pro-
pram 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,
The Washington times., 1936-09-23
Drought Aid Promised

Before I go into a discussion
Of this program let me make this
one point absolutely clear. If I
am elected, I shall fulfill all out
standing obligations made by the
present Administration with the
American farmer. BY this I mean
that those who have carried out
their end of the bargain will re-
ceive the checks due them.
I am equally emphatic in my
views on meeting the suffering
caused by the present drought.
We will use the full power of
Government to relieve the present
distress.
Those of our farmers hard hit
by the drought will be generously
provided for until they can raise
a crop. This means the continue
tion of relief checks. It means as
well, in the case of many farmers,
The Washington times., 1936-09-23
Problem for Is Years

There is nothing more satisfy
ing than raising good crops. haV-
ing q crib full of corn, plenty Of
hay in the NOW or stack, and hogs
and cattle fattening in the feed
lot. AS one Of my farmer friends
recently said to me, and said with
all reverence, Lord, I wish we
could have those things again"
For Is years we have been Strug-
Cling with what has been called
"the farm question. It is not a
farm question but a national queS-
tion. It is a question Of whether
the farmer and his family will be
able to buy the things they need
whether they'll be able to maintain
the full American standard OF l1v-
ing. It is q question of whether
the rest Of our people will be able
to trade q part of their products to
the man on the land for three
square meals a day.
All the farmer asks is that his
income be on a parity with the
rest Of the nation that he may
enjoy the same standard of life;
that his home be made secure, and
that he be able to build up re-
serve for the future.
It is to the direct interest of the
consumers and other producers of
this nation that the farmer be a
good provider and good customer.

it promptly. There will be no

Let me repeat this part of the
Republican program. We will not
allow needless suffering in this
country-either on our farms or
in our cities. We are determined
to extend every reasonable aid to
our people to get them back on a
seIf-supporting basis in the short
est possible time.
