Farmers urged to test candidates before November 6
The editorial argues for a proactive farmers coalition to defend New Deal farm programs. It warns that a new Congress may seek to abolish AAA benefits, the processing tax, and reciprocal tariff acts, threatening farm income gains achieved since 1932. It urges counties to form candidate inquiry committees to force clear positions on AAA funding, farm contracts, and tariff expansion, and stresses voting for candidates who back New Deal policies.
