A speech urges NFO to focus on agriculture rather than new plants or factories. It cites Iowa data showing 120,826,840 dollars in net returns from a 4c hog price and 2c cattle price rise over six months. It argues a 400-employee plant per county would be needed to match those incomes, advocating NFO marketing programs to boost rural income nationwide.
