He warns that 350 million acres under cultivation show 125 million acres with severe erosion and urges a farm program prioritizing soil conservation.

Behind the Scenes in Washington by Rodney Dutcher
The American Liberty League, led by Jowist Shouse, raised and spent more money in 1935 than the Republican party and nearly matched the Democratic Party. The group operates from the old Democratic HQ in Washington, runs extensive pamphlet campaigns, employs a permanent staff, and funds a broad lobbying and publicity effort while denying ties to vested interests. Its aim is government by law rather than men, with a possible 1938 plan to push a conservative option, but the banner remains “Anybody but Roosevelt.”
