CITIESJOWNS I JOIN FARMERS IN UPHEAVAL Agricultural Interests Plan Battle for Fairer Prices. By Harold C. Place UK A Staff Correspondent DBS MOINES, lowa, Jan. B.—Here In the Middle West, where banks *re “busting 1 ” and farmers are bankrupt, a real agricultural upheaval is taking place, fraught with political and economic consequences to the entire country. The biggest com crop in years—more than 3,000,000,000 bushels in the com area —with an attendant low price far under the actual cost of production, is the immediate cause. That, however, is only the surface manifestation. The origin of ! the farmer’s feeling is found in a train of circumstances, dating back to 1920, which has undermined the agricultural structure of the Middle West, bringing ruin to more than 2,000 banks In the com area and forcing thousands of farmers into bankruptcy. For five years the farmer has hung on patiently in the face of steady losses, sustained by promises which were never fulfilled. Now.
