a aa aad THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1930 1 KANSAS LAWYER DIRECTS TIRADE AT FARM BOARD Claims Marketing Act Is First Step Toward Sovietism ~ 4 -in America ‘ — Chicago, Oct, 14—(4)—The agricul- tural marketing act creating the fed- eral farm board was assailed as un- constitutional and subversive of America’s traditional individualism by F, Dumont Smith, of Hutchison, Kas., chairman of the Citizenship Commit- tee of the American Bar associa- tion, in an address to the Grain and Feed Dealers National association's convention today. “The United States stands today at the pinnacle of this world’s power and prosperity,” said the speaker, in affirming that these achievements were the by-products of the individ- ualism, guaranteed and fostered by the federai constitution. “Now,” he said, “it is proposed to substitute for this free representative republic of ours a Soviet, a Communistic com- monwealth.” Smith said that the marketing act transgressed the limits of the consti- tution by affording authoriy. for at- tempts to “regulate, control, fix and stabilize’ commodity prices. “No court has ever upheld or ever will up- hold such a power under the Inter- state Commerce provision of the cun- stitution,” he said. Others Need ‘Nursing’ Pleaders for the marketing act un- der the constitutional dictum to provide for the general welfare can- not hold their ground, Smith said, un- Jess the farm board seeks to place the various branches of agriculture on a par with every other branch as well as placing agriculture on a par with industry. He cited the depressed state of the soft coal industry, of woolen manufacturing and the widespread unemployment of labor as equally needing the nursing of the federal government, if agriculture is to be the recipient of special attention. Smith attacked the conception of business held by Alexander Legge, farm board chairman as one of “vast monopoly, controlled by a very few men” and said that Legge’s plan was now to “monopolize in the hands of the farm board the entire distribution, merchandising, and processing of food products.” h : ‘The report of James L. King, ciair- man of the association's comutittee on legislation, said that “members ot the committee on legislation are in accord with most of the strictures ana criticisms that have been leveled ai the marketing act.” “We believe,” said the report, “that it was inspired by political motives alone and that it is unsound, ill-advised, ill-digested and of no value to the farmer to whom it was intended to bring relief.” Government Says . Revolters Beaten In Recent Battle (Continued on from page one) Affonso Camargo and Carlopplis.
