Debenture Plan Faces Opposition From Hoover Aides
Washington April 22 President Hoover opposes the debenture plan for farm relief. Hyde reports studies show export debentures raise production but would shift farming toward commodities like cotton and wheat, distorting programs.

Mellon sees no difference from a cash bounty and warns debentures would sell at a discount, harming farmers and exporters.
