- Relief and Tariff Revision !J
Suggests No Specific
Sum for Revolving Fund
No Fee;. Imposition On
Farmer, r
WASHINGTON, April 16. fl)
President Hoover, In .a messago
of unusual brevity and directness,
recommended to congress todiiy .
the creation of a federal farm I
hoard with authority and resources ,
to remedy recurring: causes of de
pression in the agricultural indus
try and a limited revision of the
tariff with a reorganization of the
tariff commission.
In addition he proposed In this.
his first state . paper, the com
pletion of legislation initiated at
the last session for the suspension
of the national origins clause of
the .immigration uct; tho taking
of the 1930 census and the reap
portionment o congressional rep
resentation. .
While proposing broad powers
for .the federal farm board the
chief executive suggested no
amount for the revolving fund to
be furnished by the treasury and
proposed safeguards for the in
strumentalities and activities to
be created under the farm relief
act. - -
"There should be no fee or tax
Imposed upon the farmer," he de
clared, adding that . government
funds, should - .be furnished only
upon; application of . the farmer
owned and controlled agencies 'and
then only: when .other services, of
credit and facilities are not avail-,
able tr reasonable1 "rats."Mf
in the matter' of revision of
tariff rates, My. Hoover declared
the test in the main was whether
there had been a substantial slack
ening! of activity in an Industry
during the past few years and a
consequent decrease of employ
ment due to insurmountable com
petition In the . products of that
industry. .
No Discrimination.
The president emphasized that
no discrimination against, any for
eign ' industry was involved In
equalizing the difference In costs
of production at home and abroad
and told congress that In deter
mining changes In the tariff, ac
count must he taken of the broad
interests of the country as a whole.
adding that such Interests Includo
American - trade relations with
other countries.
In proposing a reorganization
of the tariff commission. Mr.
Hoover said it should be placed
upon a basis of higher salaries "in
order that we may at all times
command men of the broadest
attainments -
He asserted that seven years of
experience had proved the prln
clpie of flexible tariff to be.prnc
uca i, put that the basis upon
which the commission makes its
recommendations to the president
for administrative changes In tho
rates' of duty, should he, mado
more automatic and more compre
nensive, -to the end that the
tims required, for determinations
by the commission be greatly
shortened.
Declaring the government had
"a special mandate from the re
cent election not only to develop
our waterways and revise tho
agricultural tariff, but also to ex
tend systematic relief in other di
rections," the chief executive said
the multiplicity of causes of acrl
cultural depression could only be
met by ' the creation of a great
Instrumentality clothed with suf
ficient authority and resources
to assist the farmers to meet these
problems, each ' upon Its own
merits.
Constructive Action.
"The creation of such agency,'
he added, "would at once trans
fer the agricultural question from
the field of polities into the realm
of economics and would result in
constructive action. The adminis
tration is. pledged to create an
Instrumentality that will investi
gate the causes, find sound reme
dies, and have the authority and
resources to apply those remedies.
"The pledged purpose of such
a federal form board Is the re
organization of the marketing sys
tem on sounder and more stablo
and more economic lines. To do
thin the board will require funds
to assist in creating and sustain
Ing farmer-owned and farmer con
trolled agencies for a variety of
purposes, such as the acquisition
of adequate working capital to be
advanced against commodities
iougca ror storage; necessary and
prudent advances to corporations
created end owned by furmers
marketing organizations for the
purchase and orderly marketing
of surpluses occasioned by climatic
variations or by harvest conges
tion; to authorize the creation
find support of clearing houses.

nine days.
Anderson and Hitchcock were

seemed today as definitely lost as
the Southern Cross ever was.

at the weakness which bound them
to the mud flats near the mouth of

eagerness lo get awny. Their is

was believed another four days
would have to elapse before they
would be able to undertake the la

OPENING GAMES ONLY DAUGHTER
HALTED BY RAIN! GUGGENHEIM
ON EAST COAST
Washington, Boston, New
. York and Philadelphia
Games Washed Out
Other "Ceremonies v Have
. Clear and Cool Weather.
(By the Associated Press.)
The entire opening- day program
of major league baseball in the
east was washed out today by a
driving rainstorm; backed by n
cold northeast gale that dissipated
all enthusiasm for. Inaugural cere
monies and base hits.
The bad weather break, one of.ageni.. '
the worst any opening duy in re-
cent years has suffered, deferred
the' Washington-Athletics game at
the national cupltol, where Presi
dent Hoover was to throw out the
first ball; the Yankees-Red Sox
affair at the, Yankee stadium, with
Commissioner Land Is on hand; the
getaway performance of the Giants
and Phillies at Philadelphia and
the Braves -Dodgers Inaugural at
Boston. . , .
It seemed probable, however,
that the western hulf of the pro
gram would escape the wrath of
the elements. Including the all
star National league event at Chi
cago, featuring the Cubs and the
Pirates, It was clear but cool there.
Clear weather also was reported
at Cincinnati for the Cardinals and
Keds, and at Ht. Louts for the
White Sox and Browns. It was
cloudy, however, at Cleveland for
the game between Detroit and tho
Indians. .
Elaborate opening ceremonies,
planned especially for the eastern
American' league games at Wash
ington and New York, will take
place -tomorrow, If there is any im
provement In the weather, but con
ditions anywhere near favorable
are not expected before Thursday.
