Republican pledges on agriculture through the ages
The speech recalls Republican platform lines from 1916 to 1982 praising farm welfare and balanced policy, contrasts Democratic farm controls, and credits the 1933 Agricultural Adjustment Act with boosting farm income and housing. It argues Republicans now denounce scarcity while Roosevelt's soil program succeeds, condemning weasel terms and calls for continued farm support.
