‘ OVERPRODUCTION IS | GREATEST ENEMY 10 FARMERS’ SECURITY Collective Action Needed to; Regulate Supply and De- mand, Hyde Says Washington, Dec. 4.—()—Salvation from ruin for thousands of farmers { was held by Secretary Hyde yester- day to depend on whether they all will band against the giant—overpro- duction. The call to rally went forth in his|- annual report to President Hoover, with the declaration: “I want to emphasize the need for equitable, intelligent, systematic, and collective action to bring supply into better relationship with demand.” Citing the particular overabund- ance of wheat, the agriculture secre- tary said producers of that grain could expect federal help only if they made a practical approach to the task of combining to adjust output to needs. “By this time,” he continued, “it is evident that supply-and-demand conditions can not be set aside by legislation, that the dumping of sur- | pluses abroad is not feasible, that the | indefinite storing of surpluses tends to prevent rather than to cause a rise of prices, that tariff duties are not effective on commodities produced ' largely for export, and that subsidies would increase rather than restrain production. Voluntary. curtailment of production is the only logical rem- edy for the surplus problem.” Points To Cotton The secretary also pointed to cot- ton market developments as continu- ing to emphasize the importance of adjusting production to requirements. “Farmers, of course.” Hyde wrote, “must deal mainly with the supply | Phase of the problem in one way or! another. There are two main alter- natives. They can let matters driit, until production is reduced by the ruin of thousands and their climina- tion from.the farming industry, 2r they can consciously direct the read- justment process to lessen its diffi- ‘culty and hasten its end. { “The answer to overproduction 15 less production. Crops must be bal- anced as nearly as possible with mar- ket demands and offered only in such quantities as can be sold at prices covering the farmers’ cost of prouc- ; tion plus a profit. “Technical progress has increased | farm productivity tremendously in tie last 15 years, but the benefit has gone largely to the consumers. “Farming has been industrialized and mechanized. It has used science, decreased its production costs, and; increased its output, withoui: finding either profit or security in cess, It has made two blades ci grow where one grew before, %1 find the second blade depressiag the j price of both.” Urges Flexible Policy Hyde recommended a flexible pol- icy of wheat acreage reduction. Pri- marily, he proposed elimination of “high cost acres,” marginal land in which the cost of production is givst and which shows no profit unless Prices are correspondingiy high. “Wholehearted cooperation in a concerted effort to bring ow wheat. industry more nearly in line with its market would disclose many useful modifications of the existing one c-op system,” he said. “It would develop forage-crop and other sidelines, and eliminate z.any high cost acres from wheat growing. If by leaving acres fallow a better profit can be obtained, that, in itself, is good farm economy. ““There is no merit in growing a crop at a loss merely because ther: is no‘ crop that can be grown at a profit.” Lower farm incomes from the pro- duction of 1930, as compared witia the previous year, were predicted by inc cabinet officer. He estimated the aggregate gross income from 1930 crops at about $9,950,000,000, or about 16 per cent less than in 1929, He attributed the current slump in ‘gricultural prices to continued over- CHESTY COUGH? tub chest tonight with MENTHOLATUM inhale vapor The guaranteed- special patent flours OCCIDENT, LYON’S BEST, OR CLIMAX “Our Money Back” guaran- tee is an insurance policy with every sack.

The latter, he said, served to offset a sub-normal production in some lines caused by the drought of the last summer.
