B—8 DIES OFFERS NEW FARM RELIEF PLAN Texas Representative Urges “Tariff Benefits” to Sup- plant A. A. A. By the Associated Press. An attempt to supplant the Agri- cultural Adjustment Administration’s | Power Trader WOULD TAKE FARM PRO- DUCE FOR ELECTRICITY. program with something “diametrical- 1y” different was announced today by | Representative Dies, Democrat, of | Texas. | He said he would try this week to| enlist the support of national farm agencies for a plan of “tariff benefits” | for farmers. First, the domestic consumption of 1l crops of which there is a surplus | available for export would be estimat- ed. This consumption would be split among producers, each receiving an equal share. For their allotments farmers would be given a “tariff bene- fit” determined by the Secretary of Agriculture, Because of tariffs, the Texan said, the world price of manufactured arti- cles does not determine the domestic price. Manufacturers often sell abroad at lower prices than in this country. But, Dies added, the world price for farm commodities does establish the | domestic price. | The tariff benefit, he asserted. would | raise the price the farmer gets for products used at home to a level equitable with that which industry Teceives, Farmers would be allowed to pro- duce as much as they desired, but for any output in excess of their allot- ment they would have to take the world market price. One great advantage, he said, was | that the plan would enable farmers to win back markets.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, 36 ACCIDENTS DAILY | | i BALTIMORE RECORD i Safety Council Statistics on 1934 | Show 12,309 Total, Against | 11,875 Last Year. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, January 7.—Thirty- six automobile accidents a day was Baltimore's record during 1934, ac- cording to statistics furnished by the Baltimore Safety Council. Other statistics given out were: There were 12,309 crashes in Balti- | more during the year, as compared | {to 11,875 crashes in 1933. Automobile deaths in 1934 were 18 Total injuries last year were 5,681,! Part of the increase, according to John P. Rostmeyer, director of the council, can be traced to the larger number of automobiles on the road. The consumption of gasoline—usually considered a reliable index—rose ap- proximately 7 per cent during the year. This rise is not high enough, how- ever, to account for a 20 per cent in- crease in deaths, Mr. Rostmeyer said. $30,000 GEM. HIJACKING LAID TO DETROIT GANG By the Associated Press.
