Farmers Object To New Deal Program Split In Farm Groups
Washington January 15 AP Smouldering opposition to much of the new deal program for rewriting burst into the open as the national Grange draft 10 point platform for permanent and constitutional federal aid to farmers. The plan, differing from administration ideas, signals a split among farm groups meeting at Secretary Wallace's request. Some back the administration, others push higher tariffs, subsidized exports and cooperative marketing. Senate Agriculture Committee warned such crop control tied to soil conservation could be unconstitutional under the court's AAA decision, with strong sentiment to curb the court's veto power. Nine members favored curtailing the court. Most others sought constitutional ways to aid agriculture.
