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.
