Hoover Sets Policy Views for Editors in La Grange

Hoover argued for limited farm interference a home market for farmers and warned democracy declines as dictators rise amid economic depression. He said the US should back words with arms to defend democracy and saw no immediate war threat in Europe focusing on preserving liberties at home.
