* LOWDEN ASKS FARM AID ACTION DELAY Relief Demands Should Await Hoover Inauguration, He Believes. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, January 2.—Frank O. Lowden has advised the farmers to await the inauguration of President- elect Herbert Hoover before pressing their demands for some form of agri- culture relief. The former Gov- ernor of Illinois suggested that the question be held in abeyance until after Mr. Hoover takes office because he is convinced that what legislation, if any, Congress deems necessary should be acted upon at the special session proposed by the President-elect. Before departing yesterday for a four-month tour of Ttaly, Egypt. the Holy Land and Greece, Mr. Towden quite definitely opposed any attempts to tinker with the farm prob- lem during the present Congress. “Undoubtedly Congress will wish freely to consult with the President as legislation is being shaped.” he sald. “I understand that a special session is to be called.” “That, I think, would be the proper time for action upon this important question. . Wisest to Wait, He Says. “As Mr. Hoover will have the re- gponsibility of administering whatever laws may be enacted, it appears to me that the wise course at present is to wait the inauguration of the new ad- ministration.” 4 He urged the farmers and friends of agriculture to support Mr. Hoover and lend their support in making his rogram_ effective. And Mr. Hoover, ge recalled, advocated formation of a stabilization corporation “with liberal sdvances from the Government.” “The idea of such & corporation,” he explained, “is, of course, to attempt the handling of seasonal and occasional surpluses in the hope of preventing them from demoralizing the market. Mr. Hoover frankly rejected the idea that the cost of equalization should be distributed over the whole commodity thus stabilized. Family to Accompany Him. “When the. people preferred Mr. Hoover to Gov. Alfred E. Smith, they thus, in effect, issued a mandate to Mr. Hoover to proceed with the farm pro- gram he advocated. All friends of agriculture will now work with him in giving his program effect.” Accompanying Mr. Lowden on his which he will study farm- Ex-Gov.
