Practical Farm Relief Plan to Stabilize Prices and Credit
W H Forsyth with Lucien Roberts proposes a government backed corporation to finance the 1932 crop, require acreage reductions and idle land rentals, and coordinate credit limits through banks and insurers to curb overproduction. The plan aims to fix cotton at 15 cents, wheat 1 dollar, corn 75 cents, oats 40 cents, restore rural purchasing power, spur transport and manufacturing, and reduce farm income losses blamed on current surplus and international competition.
