These tremendous surpluses, along with other unbalanced production, have demoralized murket.s, forced down price.s, reduced the farmers’ pur chasing i)ower, and adde/i to city jun- employment. In brief, surpluses wiyied out values. They turned the results of human "effort into economic waste. Now the new farm act gives the secretary of agriculture power to at tack the root trouble of too much pro duction for the markdt as it exists to day. The cure for .surpluse.s and over-j production is dess pniductioh. So^toj those farmers who voluntarily agree to reduce their acreage or production, I the secretary has authority to make rental or benefit payments. This type of relief would be immediate. It would [>ut buying power into the hands of those a'ho need it and are entitled to Bringing supply into line witli the t'eal demand would tend to restore a fair exchange value for farm pro ducts. For exchange value would mean more than-social and economic justice } to farnier.s alone. It is one vital key I to a restoration of an equitable inter change of farm and city products—ttrj the benefit of all groups of our popu lation. The goal caniiot he reached over night. Moreover, each liasic commodi ty jiresents a set of problems of its , own. The method of gradually attain ing a, fair-exchange value tor one com- I modity might not apply -to another. Just how the act will be applied this year to each commodity is to be de- teimined immediately in hearings called by the .secretary of agriculture.
