Skepticism and debate swirl over farm relief and policy
The article reviews Representative Nelson's opposition to the domestic allotment farm relief bill, arguing it won’t raise prices and may worsen farmer conditions. It contrasts this with calls to stave off foreclosures and extend mortgage payoffs, while noting past farm programs failed to deliver. It also covers Stimson Roosevelt policy briefings, Democratic tax talks, and Iowa farmers resisting foreclosures with passive and escalating tactics, likening it to Gandhi-era civil resistance.
