Farm board clash with Chamber of Commerce at Washington meeting
At the Chamber of Commerce annual gathering in Washington the Farm Board faced sharp criticism from its chairman Alexander Legge and other speakers. Debates centered on government price fixing, board policies, and proposed reforms to the marketing act as leaders called for repeal or modification while Secretary Hyde defended actions. The event also covered Stimson’s arrival and the London naval treaty and broader postwar economic tensions.
