George Nelson Peek and the parity farm relief legacy
George Nelson Peek led the fight for farm relief in the 1920s and shaped the parity concept. An Illinois native, he rose from the farm equipment field to head the Moline Plow Co and later the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. His work influenced the McNary-Haugen plan and federal price support efforts until his 1943 death.
