Land banks eyed as scavengers amid depression woes
A Des Moines Register cartoon condemns joint stock land banks for foreclosing on farms, buying back bonds at a quarter, and profiting on others' distress. The piece argues religion and politics should stay separate and notes Roosevelt support, then urges voters to seek improvement over panic. It also highlights county fairs, highway cattle nuisances, and corn belt shifts northward reducing prices.
