want washing machines and here
are plenty of men who know how to
make them. Here are countless fam
lilies who want better houses, and
here are innumerable men who know
how to build them. Here are mil
lions of children who need more
milk and meat and vegetables, and
here are countless farmers who know
how to produce them.
Cites Inequities and
Charges Bad Management
That is the proposition. BY all the
rules of justice and common sense,
those who can produce those things
should be able to produce them, and
those who need them should be able
to get them.
But what is actually happening?
We have people on the farms who
need the products of industry while
5000, 900 men are out of work and
many factories are idle. We have
people in the cities who need the
products of the farm and the farmer
cannot sell the crops he raises.
Obviously there is bad manage
ment and inefflciency here.
We have had an administration
which pays the farmers to curtail
crops while it discourages the ex-
pansion of industry which would
make a market for those crops. We
have had an administration which
sets labor against management and
industry against the farmer, in
stead of calling the leaders of la
bor industry and agriculture to-
gether to work for a better stand
ard of living for all.
Dependent upon size of income
between Is and As per cent of the
total living expenses of American
families goes for food, products of
the farm. ANY increase in the earn
ings of the industrial worker will
be reflected in increased income for
the farmer. And that means better
markets for the products of in
dustry.
This is especially true of workers
in the lower income groups. If the
one-third of our people who re-
ceive the lowest incomes were able
to spend as much for food as the
middle third, they would spend over
81, 900 100000 additional for the
products of the farm. Those with
