cussed to some degree at least, OBJ
Bozeman, Mont, Jan. 10, 1912
Editor, The Peoples Voice,
The President and Price-Fixer Leon
Henderson vigorously oppose the pro-
posed action Of the congress to fix a
price ceiling on agricultural products
and to place the control OF such prices
with the Department of Agriculture.
The President says it will lead to in
flation and do the farmers more harm
than good in the end.
Without attempting to discuss the
validity of such an argument or the
implied charge that agriculture is
bent on profiteering at the expense of
the consumers of it's products during
the emergency, it appears that when
it comes to profits, the farmers hay
ing had none for the past 10 or IL
years, but heavy losses instead, what
is sauce for agricultural goose is not
sauce for the Industrial gander in the
view of the government at Washing
ton and its horde of industrial dollar
a-year men. One example will illus
|trate the point.
The Federal Reserve Board figures
show that 81 concerns engaged in pro-
ducing copper, zinc and lead, had in
the first nine months of 1941 in
creased their profits 80 percent over
what they were during the same pc
~ of Iot,,
were by no means small. But Price
Fixer Leon Henderson has authorized
an increase in the price of these
strategic" products of 40 percent for
copper, 33 percent for zinc and 81
percent for lead. Food produced by
farmers does not appear to be in the
strategic" category although there
was a slogan in World War l that
Food Will Win the War" 1t is diff
ficult to understand how soldier
can fight effectively or use the NUM-
tons of war of which copper, zinc and
lead are component parts, if he is hun
CRY or even ill-fed. The farmers are
being urged to produce more food and
the mines and smelter people are be-
ing urged to produce more copper,
zinc and lead. But although the lat
ter have made and are making huge
profits at present prices they must be
encouraged" by still higher prices.
The farmers, however, with seven or
more very lean years behind them and
now doing little more than breaking
even, are Encouraged to be patri-
otto and content with what Industrial
Price Fixer Henderson thinks is
enough for them. What howl there
would be were 1t even suggested that
the Department of Agriculture be per-
mitted to fix the prices on industrial
products. Meanwhile there is no
word that farm machinery and equip
ment the farmer must buy and use to
grow food products effectively and ex-
tensively, and for which he now and
always has paid a protective tariff
price, will not be further
increased in price by reason of the
encouraged" higher price for the cop
per, zinc and lead used in the manu-
facture Of such machinery and the
higher wages paid to the workers who
make 1t.
