IP) Herbert Hoover and his attitude toward agriculture was the target today for another attiu'k hy a Kroup of farm lenders who con tended a misleading effort was be ins made to repieisunt the com merce secretary an a friend of the vTarmer. "The American farmer Buffered too much at the handu of Herbert Hoover," said a Mutument bearing the names of six farmer rcpreHen tativefl, "to view with complacency the effort to make him appear as u 'farmer's friend' candidate." The statement, appearing In the form of a pamphlet headed "report of farmers' committee on the farm record of Herbert Hoover," car ried the names of the following uh Hs drafters: Charles H. Weller, chairman of the South Dakota Agricultural committee; J. H. Kimble, legislative agent, Farmers National cangress; iCnbcrt M. Crowder, president. South Dakota Varm Hureau; C. K. Huff, presi dent, Kansas Farm Hureau, and Mrs. W. B. Doak, vice chairman, Federated Farm Women of Arncr- lea. "This statement is presented in the interest of no riiniihtutft," the pamphlet snld. "This tllwuHHloii of Hoover is entirely impersonal. Jt Is a statement made necessary by misleading propaganda to set forth the attitude of farmers gen rally on the Hoover candidacy so that he may not be foisted on the nomination on any ground except the correct one, as far as farmers are concerned. "Farmers generally feel and be lieve that during the entire life of our nation that no man had great er opportunity to serve, yet did so much to contribute hardship, dis tress and near ruin to the men, women and children of the farms who never shirked in their duty of providing necessities for feeding humanity." , rno statement assailed the course pursued by Hoover us war time food administrator and de clared that "his nomination should be made as the candidate of the chambers of commerce and big business men and not ns the can didate of the farm organizations find the long-suffering tillers of the soil." It also called for a clear-cut expression on farm relief from the commerce secretary. HEAVYSNOWFALL I.O.VIX)X. Ktitf., April 10.
