GOP Platform Promises Free Farmers From Threat to Freedom
The Republican National Convention committee accuses the Truman administration of making farmers dependent on subsidies. The GOP platform pledges a federal farm program to achieve parity prices via loans, storage, credit, crop insurance, and price supports to stabilize income. It rejects the Brannan plan as tax funded socialization and calls for a bipartisan federal farm commission and soil conservation payments while criticizing 1948 price manipulation. Dewey campaign links are noted.
