Farm problem lines up party views at Benson Creamery
Frank W. Murphy of Wheaton Minnesota spoke to about 1000 at the Benson Creamery picnic in Cedar Falls. He argued that farm issues cross party lines and criticized the Republican handling of farm relief measures. Murphy traced the rise of farm groups, contrasted market prices and protections, and urged farmers to push for nonpartisan leadership and policy changes.
