Farm Bureau outlines rural credit and co op plan
Gray Silver, Washington representative, details Farm Bureau successes and future needs. He lauds Capper Volstead act, urges federal rural credit and warehousing reforms, and explains the new Farm Bank with a $600 million loan capacity. He argues these measures let farmers mass production, gain fair credit, and compete as a modern industry, ending dependence on fragile local finance.
