been interested in the support of
the cooperative movement, be-
cause it seems to me that one of
the farmers greatest handicaps is
the fact that there are several
million farmers, each a separate
small producer, and he has to buy
from and sell to much larger busi-
ness units. This disadvantage can
only be overcome by cooperative
action.

out by the C.LO.-P.A.C., which

Midland at Canal Winchester at
cost of So million. i have been
willing to support loans for REA
generating plants whenever pri-
vate power is inadequate, or
when power cannot be bought
from private companies at rea-
sonable prices.
Last year I secured an amend
ment to help the Ohio Farm
Bureau secure loans for the con-
struction of modern cooperative
elevators to take the place of the
Governments steel storage bins
which now dot the Ohio landscape
and in which Ohio corn and wheat
will almost certainly spoil.

Bureau Federation and the off,

The Brannan Plan promises the
farmer high prices and the con-
sumner low prices. 1t is fraud on
its face because it says nothing
about the taxes required to pay
the difference. Yet those taxes will
have to be paid by the farmers
and the consumers. In short, they
are getting a bill from the Gov
ernment for the benefits that they
are supposed to receive, and into
that bill will be added the salaries
of thousands of employees of the
Department of Agriculture to ad-
minister the plan.
The Brannan Plan, with its 100
percent guarantee, forces produc-
ton controls not only for crops
but for cattle, sheep, hogs, and
even chickens. In England, where
the Labor Government has COM
plete control, it takes farmers
farm away from him and operates
it if he won't follow the rules.
-
But the farm price problem is
one which requires special con-
Sideration because, again, the
farmer is subject to such tremen-
dous hazards in weather, in un-
controllable production, and in
widely fluctuating free markets.
1t seems to me that the Govern
ment must step in when farming
prices get out of line with all other
prices. The resulting decrease in
the farmers income is not only
unfair to the farmer, but is likely
to throw many industrial workers
out of work and bring about a
serious depression.

Bill, which Secretary Brannan
and President Truman approved

advisable to attack the 80th
Congress and the Republican
Party i'm the 1948 election. The
CLO.-P.A.C. is putting out a
whole series of lies about my
position on various agricultural
bills. Farmers who are inter-
ested can talk to any officer of
their own farm organization,
