10 FARM BUREAUS Early Balancing of Budget Urged in Resolutions Sub- -, mitted at Chicago. ) By the Assoclated Press. OHICAGO, December 11.—A mili- tant defense of the A. A. A. and processing taxes and a recommenda- tion for early balancing of the Fed- era] budget were contained in resolu- tions submitted today to the American Fharm Bureau Federation's seventeenth annual convention. The Resolutions Committee, headed by CTharles E. Hearst of Des Moines, reported 17 general resolutions for adoption. The foreword reaffirmed the farm- ers' faith in “the established order of our Government,” with “such modifi- cations in the organic laws as experi- ence and mature judgment show are necessary.” Asserting two and one-half years' experience had proved the soundness of the A. A. A. principles, the report said: “We reafirm our position that the processing tax is a tariff for agri- culture, and must be continued as the most effective means by which agri- culture may work toward parity prices.” Ask Balanced Finances. ‘The fiscal affairs of the Govern- ment, said the resolution on Federal financial policy, “should not long con. tinue out of balance.” The report added there should be %“no reduction in taxation policies un- til the Federal debt shall have been greatly diminished.” Speedy enactment of legislation to control “speculation on commodity exchanges” was also recommended as pr in a bill favorably reported byfthe United States Senate’s Gm- on Agriculture. it referring to the Canadian reciprocal trade treaty, defended by President Roosevelt and Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace, the re- port on treaties said, “We reaffirm our position of last year on reciprocal trade agreements. That there be no reduction . in present agriculturhl tariffs on any farm product that would have the effect of holding or reducing | domestic price levels below parity on such products.” O'Neal Pledges Co-operation. In return for President Roosevelt’s promised aid, to which Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace and Chester C. Davis, A. A. A. administra- tor. added their weight, the federa- tion was pledged by Edward A. O’'Neal, its president, to co-operation with Government agencies. Hearst sald harmony between the New Deal and the farmers could be upset only by a “revolt from the floor.” He added that such a break was “a remote possibility.” A federation spokesman said the re- ports might include some of the eight farmer ‘“demands” enumerated by O'Neal at the opening of the session. They were: 1. Elimination of monopolies. 2. Abandonment of subsidies for specially favored groups. 3. Cessation of subsidizing of vari- ous industrial and financial groups. 4. Rescinding of the power given to the Nation’s bankers to contract or expand the volume of credit and money. 5. Elimination of the colossal power of pyramided monopoly to regiment mankind. 6. Regulation of all corporations in the public interest. 7. That industry acceluerate output at lower prices. 8. A program to remove the hazards of life beyond control of the indi- vidual 4,000 ARE EXPECTED FOR TURKEY DINNER More than 4,000 persons are ex- | pected to attend the annual turkey dinner to be given at the Shrine of the Sacred Heart Church, Sixteenth street and Park road, tonight and to- morrow night, when 3,000 pounds of turkey will be served..
