Farm Bureau chief outlines five planks for prosperous agriculture
Charles B. Shuman of the American Farm Bureau Federation presented five major planks at the Chicago convention. He urged ending government price fixing, curbing subsidies and monopolies, expanding non subsidized foreign trade, cutting federal spending to fight inflation, and boosting farmers bargaining power within a free market framework. He warned price controls had slowed farm adjustments and worsened income. The plan emphasizes non subsidy growth, lower taxes, and a leaner foreign aid posture.
