CHICAGO, Dec. 6.-The Amer
ican Farm Bureau Federation
opened It's annual convention today
with q series of conferences and a
statement by its president Edward
A. ONeal, that farmers are more
firmly opposed to subsidies" than
ever before.
Mr.. ONeal reported that member
declarations were practically unani-
nous in condemning subsidies at a
time when consumer income "is the
highest in history and national
leaders are in mortal fear that the
pressure of the greatest accumu-
lation of unspent funds in history
may smash the control measures
and engulf the Nation with wild
orgy of imitation"
A series of national conferences
on organizational methods. rural
youth, insurance and the various
commodity groups were scheduled
for today, with Mr.. ONeal to make
the principal address at tomorrow's
sessions.
Addressing the session on insur
ance, C, o. Pauley, secretary of the
Great Northern Life Insurance Co.,
told delegates the Wagner -Dingell
bill to expand the national social
security program would seem to
mean putting the Federal Govern
ment in direct competition with pri-
vate insurance in practically all
lines. with the ultimate goal of fed
eralizing all insurance. We should
be on guard if We feel that the
business of voluntary insurance has
any right to exist"
He continued by comparing the
social security system and its pro-
posed extensions with England's
Beveridge plan. pointing out that
under the latter benefits would be
