Litton Becomes Hero To Striking Farmers
A film by Rep. Jerry Litton has become a symbol for thousands of U S farmers on strike. The 28 minute documentary, produced at cost for the American Agriculture movement, is in high demand from Florida to California and shown at farm meetings and by growing TV airings. Family members say Litton would have supported the farmers’ goals but opposed violence and demands for 100 percent parity, stressing education of officials and consumers.
