THE CAIRO MESSENGER FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22NI), 1926.
PROSPERITY FARM
RELIEF THE ISSUES
PARTY CHIEFTAINS TAKE RAP
AT EACH OTHER IN
OPENING.
Prosperity and farm relief engaged
the attention of Republican and Dem
ocratic Congressional campaign com
mittee chairman in statements issued
Monday assailing each other’s conten
tions.
Official government reports were
cited by Representative William A.
Oldfield, of Arkansas, the democratic
chairman, in challenging Republican
claims of prosperity in the presen i
political campaign.
Representative Will R. Wood, of
Indiana, chief of the Republican com
mittee, accused the Democratic party i
leaders of hypocrosy on the farm re-1
lief question.
Payrolls Falling Off.
“President Coolidge’s prosperity
issue,” said Mr. Oldfield, “has bee a
hit its hardest blow by the Bureau of
Labor statistic of the Department
of Labor in its September review
showing that unemployment is twmity
percent greater than it was in 1920,
and that the annual payroll of the
American workers has been reduced
during the same period by one-fourth..
“This is not all. We have known
for a long time that the farmer ha
been suffering, but his conditions is
going from bad to worse. The last
statement on the subject by the De
partment of Agriculture, made on • ■
October 1, showed that the put chasing
power of farm products had fallen
eleven points from August 1925, to
August 1926, and had reached the
lowest point in more than two years.”
He also cited Bradstreet’s report
or. commercial failures for the
months of 1926, showing an increase
of 5.3 percent in the number and
of 29 percent in the amount of liabili
ties as compared with the same period
of 1925, and called attention to the!
turn in the trade balance against j
the United States.
Hypocrisy is Feature.
“The outstanding features of the
Democratic party’s contentions in
the present campaign, “Me. Wood
said, “is the hypocrisy in its plea to
farmers that agricultural progress de
pends on electing a Democratic House
and Senate.
“The Democratic policy on agri
culture is based on reduction of tariff
on farm products. What is it but
hypocrasy to tell the Western farmer
he will be helped and then .;o plan
to remove the tariff on his products
so as to make him face competition
with which he cannot compete.
“Any effort to blame the Republi
can party for failure of the McNary
Haugen Bill is further hypocrisy,
whether that bill was economically
sound and workable or noL in either
House or Senate, had half the uega
tive Democratic votes been uflii illa
tive, the bills would have passed.
“The Republican record of r< scaling
the farmer from the ruin in 1920 and
1921 and its certainty to go ahead
with its work until the agricultural
promblems are solved, also is evident.”
