Insurance for crops planned by federal committee
A federal committee told President Roosevelt that crop insurance is too large a private undertaking and should be funded by the government. The plan would store wheat in good years and release it during failures, and would supplement other farm programs rather than replace them. The report notes potential savings from distressed-farmer aid and highlights the Plains states as the likely core area, with a voluntary structure and reserves needing 100 to 150 million dollars.
