WALLACE URGES
NEW FARM PLAN
Outlines Six-Point Program
and Asks Adoption in
Louisville Address.
Ry the Associated Press

ES the associated Press.
LOUISVILLE. KY. October O.
Secretary of Agriculture Henry A
Wallace outlined an weather
program to assembled thousands OF
farmers from Kentucky. Tennessee
and Southern Indiana here today.
introduced by Judge Robert w
Bingham, Louisville, United States
Ambassador to Great Britain, Wallace
urged farmers to adopt six-point
program which he said in the words
of President Roosevelt is intended "to
level the peaks of over-supply into the
valleys of shortage and disaster"
Wallace said he was happy" to
announce the program was indorsed
last February at meeting of farm
leaders who recognized that any
permanent national farm program
must be program of balanced
abundance and security for both
farmer and consumer.
Principles and recommendations,
Wallace said. covered at the February
meeting were:
First, that agriculture has a right
to a fair share of the national in
come.
Second. that consumer as well as
farmer interests should be safe
guarded through an ever-normal
granary.
Third, that conservation of the
soil is vitally important to the Nation.
Fourth, that farmers ought to be
assured of security of tenure of farms
they occupy
Fifth. that farmers cooperative
movement ought to be encouraged.
Sixth, that provisions ought to be
included in any national farm pro-
gram favoring the family-sized farm
Il believe that the six principles I
have given. which we're among the
recommendations of the farm leaders
last February 9. will serve AS the
framework for such a platform.
