Truman Blames Eisenhower for Farm Troubles and Recession
Former President Harry S Truman blamed the Eisenhower administration for farm difficulties and a business recession. He urged Democratic votes at the National Farmers Union convention, arguing a Democratic Congress in 1958 and a Democratic president in 1960 would restore prosperity and strengthen national security. He cited higher profits for processors and lower farm incomes, plus higher Department of Agriculture costs, calling Benson “Expensive Ezra” and labeling the GOP as pro big business.
