Export Debenture Plan Faces Farm Relief Clash
The export debenture plan would give exporters debentures equal to half the tariff on protected farm products, redeemable against tariffs on all imports. Supporters say it could raise farm prices and boost world-market sales, but critics warn of middlemen profiteering, price suppression, and a world surplus destabilizing markets. Hoover opposes. Congress split, likely no relief this session.
