Coolidge Urged to Aid Fruit Growers
Paul Smiths New York Arthur Rule general manager of Federated Fruit and Vegetable Growers asked President Coolidge during two conferences to extend agricultural credit. He argued a big fruit crop this fall would be cheaper for consumers if growers could market all produce instead of letting apples and peaches rot.
