Striction. Experiments in the last few
years have shown that restrictive
measures are either ineffective or.
Wien effective, are u.lduly so and re-
suit in an unfortunate scarcity and
prices higher than consumers win ac-
cept without protest. For this year the
restrictions have been Ineffective and
we are faced with very large crops. A
recent forecast for cotton Is 1929 900
bales. the largest Sotton crop in our
history. This leads Secretary Wal.
lace and others to advocate very
different plan-that Of an Fever nor
NAL granary." In good years SURPRISES
are to be stored to be released on the
market IN .ater years when crops are
small. This is to be agriculture's con-
tribution to a balanced production.
Why not? One difficulty IS that pur-
chases for storage In good years
stimulates production, perhaps an.
duly. 70 keep planting within desir-
able limits woul d be more nearly
possible If the United States were the
only country producing cotton or corn
or wheat But we must face q world
situation. Under modern conditions
given use Of labor and capital on our
farms will result in rnucI larger crops
than few years ago. The same is true
in other parts Of the world. An sever
normal government granary would
find it necessary to buy and store
very large SURPRISES In good years.
Next is the consequent heavy ex-
pense. This would be Of two sorts.
First the outlay for the purchase and
storage Of the surpluses. Second are
the losses unless thCse SURPRISES
could be sold later at price enough
higher than the purchase price to
cover the expenses of operating the
plan. Whether the resal prices would
be sufficiently high is doubtful. In
year Of small crops the producers
would protest vigorously and through
political pressure would do what they
could to prevent government sales
that would lower market prices.
IN other words, there is no reason
to believe that the project. could be
carried out without an undue stimu-
lus to agricultural production IN
world where there are many other
countries competing with US. And if
it is attempted the result will be
heavy loss for the government to be
spread over the country in higher
taxation. Other producing groups are
being aided by tariffs and by SUBJ
sides and the pressure is strong to
add farmers to the list.
