McGovern rails against farm policy and Thieu in campaign stops
McGovern charged Nixon farm policy has shuttered 150000 farms and pushed a million people from rural areas. He pledged appointing a working farmer as agriculture secretary, cutting property taxes, and boosting farm income to 90 percent of parity, while aides warned groceries could rise.
