Conference on Agricultural Help Fails to Solve Rural Prices
Washington coverage reports the Des Moines gathering of Hawkeye delegates failing to settle the farm price crisis. Dickinson's bill spurs debate on a six member commission, surplus handling, and a revolving fund funded partly by an excise tax on surplus sales, aimed at stabilizing prices without direct government price fixing. The plan seeks broad state coverage and voluntary cooperation, not district-specific relief.
