The document outlines fiscal reforms for Virginia outlining tax shifts based on earning capacity with a luxury tax and federal handling of tobacco taxes, extension of fair farm electric service, tariff parity for farmers, and soil surveys. It calls for monetary stabilization, credit safeguards to prevent foreclosures, and continued essential state departments. It also argues for highway funding controls, reforestation, and peacetime policies including ending profits of war and state ownership of certain public power sites.

Virginia Farm Taxes Down 30 Percent From 1929 to 1932
A Virginia Agriculture Department survey of 185 farm tax returns from about 70 counties shows farm taxes per $100 of assessed farm property fell from 2.33 in 1929 to 1.67 in 1932, a 30 percent drop. Dr. William H. Stauffer notes conditions are better than many states but farmers’ ability to pay has weakened, alongside broader declines in cash income from 157 million in 1929 to 60 million in 1932.
