R. Ogg legislative representative say that the Bureau was putting up an endless fight for farm parity. That the farmers of this country should have to put up any fight for a parity on their products seems ridiculous. But until those in our national government, New Dealers, Democrats and Re publicans alike, get the idea into their head that farming is the basis in this country of all pros perity, just so long will the farmer have to keep fighting for his rights. All the alphabetic agen cies in the world are not going to help the farm er, despite so-called “payments” if he has to devote seven and a half to eight acres of wheat land to purchase a seed drill. The fanner does not object to paying a fair price for the equip ment he must use, because he knows that he is lending his financial support to the high stand ard of living in the United States, but one can not blame him for wondering if he is the “for gotten man.” The sugar beet grower is a good example of the regulation that is gradually be ing forced on the American fanner, for in this field of farming, the wage scale is set by hear ing with the officials of the Agricultural depart ment, the net result of which is that the beet grower must pay top wages and then face forg ing competition. Our so-called recriprocal trade agreements, somewhere along the line are actually working to the disadvantage of anything approaching farm parity. Take pears and apples—Canada slaps on a tariff of sixty-one cents per box on foreign apples, while the United States has a duty of only 15 cents per box! And to add in sult to injury, Canada last year shipped into the United States, 115,000 boxes of apoles, and up to November 5 of this year, 514,000 boxes of ap ples were allowed to come in to the American market—and not long ago a visitor in Nyssa told us that fruit growers on the Oregon coast were letting their fruit go unpicked this year because of the lack of a market that would re turn them enough to pay for the harvesting! The pear situation is a similar one, except that Ar gentine had a tariff of seventy-seven cents per bushel, and last year shipped into the United States 97,000 boxes which will, it is expected, be THE GATE CITY JOURNAL THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1940 on Tuesday to spend increased to 150,000 boxes this year.
