The McNary-Haugen Export Corporation Bill, now before Congress is receiving the hearty support of Representative W. C. Hawley, who has issued the following series of questions and answers regarding the measure: What is the purpose of the McNary-Hagen Bill? To equalize the farmer’s dollar with the other man’s dollar. How will itaccmplish this pur pose? By the establishing of an ex port agency to handle wheat and other major farm products if and when necessary, under provis ions which will maintain legiti mate prices. Does this mean that the gov ernment is going into the gen eral farm marketing business? No, it will operate through regular channels, and deal only as necessary to maintain proper prices. Will it destroy cooperative marketing? It will encourage cooperative marketing by assisting coopera tive associations in a task which they cannot accomplish without such aid. ( What effect will it have on the millers? It will relieve millers from the danger of serious price fluctua tions, due to speculation or other cause. What will it do to present pri ces of farm products? It will increase present prices for wheat from 40 to 60 cents a bushel, hog prices about 40 per cent, cattle about 30 per cent Will it increase production? Not more than profitable pri ces for farm products secured by any other means, and profitable prices must he obtained unless A m e r i c a n agriculture is to perish. How does it affect business men aud banker? America is an agricultural na tion. The success of all depends on the success of agriculture. The McNary-Haugen Bill means success for agriculture. Is it fair to other industries? Exactly. Under the bill farm prices increase only as prices for other products increase. It does for the farmer only what other legislation already is doing for others industries. CURRINSVILLE ITEMS Measles seem to be the pre vailing pastime in Currinsville at present. Both C. W.
