TRADE TREATIES
Urges Support-for Measure "In House; Cites Farm Income Figures.
Times Special
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. — The §
nation was urged to support the Administration’s reciprocal trade
agreement powers by Rep. John W.|
Boehne Jr. (D. Evansville) in a speech before the House. today. He urged support for the New Deal - agreements to prevent the Government from turning back “toward suicidal economic nationalism with its Hawley-Smoot embargoes.” As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, Rep. Boehne joined in reporting for passage the bill extending the trade agreement
powers which will expire June 12. The measure is up for House.debate.
‘A Palpable Falsehood’
“Much of the propaganda being poured out is that the trade agree-| ments has caused an: increase in our. imports of farm products and that this has hurt agriculture,” he said. “Never was a more palpable and insidious falsehood perpetrated “on our farm people. “By 1932, after two and one-half years of Hawley-Smoot tariff embargoes, farm cash income had fallen to $4,500,000,000. - By 1938, after four years of trade agreement policy, it had risen to $7,500,000,000. Were farmers hurt by this $3,000,000,000 increase in farm income?
Terms It Phony Nostrum
“If experience teaches us anything at all, it should have taught everyone of us that farmers cannot be saved by embargo tariffs. “Of all the fake political nostrums ever peddled the American farmer, the protective tariff is doubtless the phoniest.”
