Republicans Push Farm Vote Platform For 1948 Election
The Republican party unveiled a farm policy plank promising permanent price supports and a sounder savings program, plus cooperative support and research into new uses for surpluses. It backs family sized farms, market price protection, farmer loans, and marketing agreements, aligning with President Truman’s suggestions and seeking to deny Democrats a farm issue. The plank calls for timber cooperation with states to sustain lumber yield amid forestry debates.
