In this protected m arket, he disposes of 95 per cent of his products a t prices higher than , aid elsewhere til the world for like products. This is pointed out in the Republican campaign textbook. The complete book is being printed in installm ents of which the first is devoted entirely to agriculture, and Includes pertinent ex tracts from H er­ bert Hoover’s acceptance address, the agricultural plunk of the Kansas City platform and o th er pertin en t data rel­ ative to the farm situation. In addition to this, there is a recital of the Republican p arty's constructive legislation in behalf of agriculture since 1920, a provision intended to show th a t the prom ises now being made to the farm ers by Mr. Hoover and S enator C urtis spring from a sym pathetic attitu d e and therefore will be fulfilled in good faith by the Republicans. The problems of agriculture are treated front an economic rath er than a political viewpoint, and em phasis is laid on the freedom from economic fallacies of the agricultural legislation already passed by Republican con­ gresses which includes 24 m easures since March, 1921. “Republican legislation In behalf of agricultural producers lias been form ulated with a view of its having perm anent value and being founded in sound political economy and good sense," says the textbook. “The con trol of every Republican Congress has been in the hands of those repre­ senting agricultural constituencies So it has been logical and inevitable th a t the in terests of agriculture have been conserved by the Republican party.” (By Special C orrespondent) ==¡1 D a n a C .

Albany, Oregon X... n L : Allphin Auction House I U. S. D em ocracy’s G uardian Loan Banks Aid Farm ers Since 1921 there has been made available to agricultural borrow ers un­ der Republican adm inistrations a total of 22,774,198,040, chiefly through the federal fa; m loan banks, the Joint stock land banks, the interm ediate credit banks and the w ar finance cor­ poration. This recapitulation does not take into account such organizations as the A gricultural C redit Corporation, organized in 1924 to relieve an agri cultural crisis in the northw est, nor the developm ent'of federal w arehous ing as an aid to m arketing under the amended Federal W arehousing Act. In the same period, under a Republi can tariff which protects more agri­ cultural products than any in history, the farm price of w heat has increased 20 per cent; rye, 20 per cent; corn, 70 per cent; oats, 30 p er cent; barley 60 per cent; flaxseed, 27 per cent; beef cattle, 80 per cent; calves, 50 per cent; butter, 15 per cent; hogs, 25 p er cent; sheep, 80 per cent; iambs, 72% per cent; wool, 100 per cent. The fallacy of arb itrary methods for lessening the spread between the pro­ ducer and the ultim ate consum er, such as are advocated by th e 1928 Demo­ cratic platform , is pointed. They would necessarily result in price-fix­ ing, and Inevitably the 89,000,000 non- iigricultural consum ers would be fix­ ing th e price they desired to pay the 28,000,000 agrlculutral producers. "Such a proposal is abhorrent to the sp irit of American institutions,” says the textbook. “It is the very es­ sence of state socialism in th a t it would completely eliminate the ele­ m ent of Individual Initiative and en­ terprise with th eir com m ensurate In- divdual rew ard." Mr. Hoover's suggestions for the im­ provem ent of the farm situation are reviewed, particularly the em phasis he has laid upon the need for devel- opm ent of the homo m arket, rath er than experim ental attem p ts to increase shipm ents of our agricultural products ^x/lbany^^/^irectory • DELBERT STARR j Funeral Director and Licensed •X Hughes farm was filled.
