Goldsborough Votes Against the American Farmer Ad
In Shore Republican papers and some Democratic ones an ad headlined Goldsborough Votes Against the American Farmer appears to be by Harry T. Phoebus but funded by a Baltimore group. The piece misstates Goldsborough's stance on a moratorium, noting he opposed it while backing a Hoover approved amendment for mortgage extensions and bank funding. The National Grange and American Farm Bureau Federation praised his actions, while critics warn such attacks backfire.
