Wat- son in a speech prepared for deliv- ery here today said his party had clearly outlined a means of solving the farm problem while the demo- crats have yet to offer a concrete plan for the guidance of the people on this subject. The senator held that there only two ways of handling the crop surplus—to purchase it in accord- ance with the terms of the McNary bill, sell it abroad at whatever price can be obtained and distribute the | loss over the producers of the par ticular crop in question; or to take raoney directly from the treasury and buy the gurplus, store it, until a shortage occurs, and then feed it into the market in accordance the deinand. ® The speaker declared that the democratic platform was against taking money from the treasury to buy surplus crops and that Gov. Smith, the democratic nominee, was opposed to the other solution, Herbert Hoover, republican presi- dentlal candidate, Senator Watson added, clearly interpreted the repub- lican platform plank of the subject to mean the appropriation of money from the treasury to set up a board 1o hmy the surplus crop and deal with it as their judgment seems best PORTITR TS *This is a fixed, definite program of action and if given a fair trial will solve the problem,” Watson added.
