P. to Support Roosevelt mistakes of the federal farm board to be duplicated. Here is the plan as tentatively sug- Bested: Allot to each farmer his share of acreage of corn or wheat to be used for home consumption. It is stated that consumption can be de- termined. relatively at least. On that Portion of his crop. the farmer would receive a price sufficient to cover cost of production plus a reasonable profit for his labor. All crops raised in ex- cess of the quota assigned the farmer would have to be sold on the world market. Want to Try It Out Farmers are anxious to try out the) quota plan as a drowning man grasp- ing at a straw. They show anger and resentment when they speak of the many plans initiated by Hoover to protect banks, insurance companie: railroads and trust companies. It statesmanship, they say, to loan $90,- 000,000 to save a Dawes bank, but Socialism or worse to apply direct aid to an industry which is gradually be- ing wiped out. Through low prices and high taxation many farmers are erduced to tenantcy or worse others are in the bread lines of the city. ‘This is the farm reaction to the Hoo- ver plan of beginning at the top and trickling down. Farmers say, out here in Nebraska where the great Com- moner set them to thinking back in 1896, that they don’t expect prosper- ity “to trickle” according to the Hoo- ver blue-print. * OK Democratic campaign speakers are meeting the arguments of Republi. cans neatly. One of Hoover's official family has termed Roosevelt's prom- ises as sky-writing and impossible. Democrats reply that four years ago, President Hoover told the electorate that through the agency of the Re- publican party. poverty was to be a thing of the past and prosperity a Perennial condition under its aegis. Democrats contend Roosevelt's pledges are far below the ex ant utter- ances of Hoover in 1928 when pros- perity was heralded as a Republican heritage and without Republicanism nothing but depression and utter darkness. The Republicans have no full dinner pail to wave or bull mar- ket to point to in the corn belt us th campaign waxes warm. The farm are not carrying torches behind publican banners in 1932—they are holding indignation meetings and in- quiring into the state of the Republic. a ae Eastern Nebraska and most of Iowa has a bumper corn crop. In some places near here corn is reported to have gone 80 bushels to the acre. In Towa the state's biggest yield is re- ported. Iowa state raises nearly 20 per cent of America’s corn. It goes to market on the hoof. If livestock prices surge before November many Towa farmers may stay in the Repub- lican ranks. But if the sag continues they will turn to Democratic leader- ship toward which the drift at this writing is most decided. * KOK James Farley, Roosevelt's manager, was told by Nebraska Demo- astute | cratic leaders that this state would / give the New York governor a ma-} jority of 60,000. The governor of Kansas, as he waved farewell to Roo- sevelt, told him Kansas was coming in for the Democrats 100,000 strong. As he waved good-bye to the corn belt political leaders, Farley last week | yelled: “See you all in Washington on March 4.” | These majorities may be too exces- , but outside of the cities, there | ctically no Hoover sentiment ‘here. You talk to the man at the | { filling station, the waitress at the ho- tel, bell boys and porters, They are) for Roosevelt. The bankers, some |} businessmen, not all of them by a long shot, and professional men be- ! lieve that President Hoover should be | [retained in office to work out his, policies. They are doing little for! him, however. The anti-Hoover forces { are most active and militant. They | have put the Republicans in an em- { barrassing position and to date Hoo- | ver's friends have fought a poor, inept defensive battle in the Middle West. It is almost impossible to find a Hoo- ver supporter among the farmers, * * * In case of a close contest between Hoover and Roosevelt the presidency may be decided in the West. Hence! the intensive campaign being waged ‘ through the corn belt states. Unless they are checked, disgruntled agri- {cultural elements will turn the trick { for Roosevelt. Senator Borah has ex- | pressed himself publicly that in his view the West is the battlefield of, this national campaign. That is why | the slightest political reaction is being carefully studied. All this may have} caused Hoover's managers to aban- | don the front porch campaign first decided upon. Nebraska Democrats expect Senator | Norris to be much more effective in! his support of Roosevelt than he was! in the advocacy of Smith in 1928. forris is to stump the state for Roo- When Roosevelt swings back! ugh the corn belt to speak at Sioux City, Iowa, the special train | will stop at McCook, Neb., the home of Norris. There the style of the Norris attack will be decided upon. It is expected that Roosevelt will be introduced by Norris to his McCook constituents. The train may be held | for a short platform meeting at the | depot. These informal rural confer- | ences from the rear end of the ob- | servation car have been effective. | Part of | Roosevelt's appeal is devoted to ask- ing for advice on agrarian problems. He frankly tells his audience that he has come West for first-hand infor- mation. John will get the bicycle four and one+ half years from now, when he will be 161-2. At that time his dad will be 491-2, or three times as old as John. AT THE MOVIES | Flash.
