Wallace urges government wheat agency to aid farmers
Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace reports 1923 farm income rise and larger crop areas. He notes higher prices for wool cotton and dairy, but warns many crops fall in value. He proposes a wheat export agency funded by a wheat crop levy to stabilize prices and aid farmers, with broad powers and initial capital. The report highlights farm debt and urban wage pressures as factors in distress. A note later adds tenor Ricardo Martin secretly married Jane Grey, with both continuing stage careers.
