The Republicans . ‘ voted 106 to 38 against them. The Republican leaders say nice things about the farm program to get votes from the farmers. But when it comes to voting for the farmer, they don't deliver the goods.” Mr. Wallace said that between now and November he will do everything he can “to arouse the American people to the need for peace through preparedness, to the importance of the solidarity of the Americas, and to the duty of business men, workers and farmers to co-operate together for full employment and for the national defense.”
