Week before last I told you how the figures dnd been 
gled for the basic years of 1909 to 1914. 
 
The 1920 Year Book of the United States Department 
 
Agriculture, on pages 817 and 182 gives 82 articles that 
e farmer buys. It gives the prices of these articles. It 
 
shows the farmers buying power per acre = crops for 
 
years 1909, 1914 and 1919. 
According to the 1920 Year Book, by Honky C. Wal- 
father of Henry A. Wallace, the farmers buying 
ver in 1919 stood at 111 % of his 1914 buying power. 
This means that with prices which the farmer received 
19 and the prices that the farmer had to pay in 1919, 
at the farmer was able to buy 111% of the goods that he 
ld buy in 1914. 
I have sent men to the stores in Atlanta and have se- 
red prices on these same 82 commodities which the farim- 
buy as of today. : 
On the last page of this issue, I am carrying a table of 
ures. The first three columns of figures are copies of 
e figures. in the 1920 Year Book of the United States De- 
rtment. of Agriculture. These three columns show the 
- of these 82 articles to the farmer in the years 1909, 
4 and 1919. : 
In the fourth column I am earr ying the prices aay on 
ese same 82 articles as a comparison of these other years. 
Comparative Cost To Farmer 
 
= Tf the farmer had bought one each ot these 82 articles 
 
1909, it would have coat him $625.69. If the farmer | 
 
ght one each in 1914, the cost would have been $679.74. 
ean see there was very little change in the cost to the 
mer in these 82 articles between 1909 and 1914. 
 
oe 1919 Was Called The High Year 
df the farmer bought one each of these 82, articles in 
 
, the total cost to the farmer would have been $1,252.39. | 
 
cost to the farmer in buying one each in 1919 would 
ve been substantially twice what it was in 1909 or in 1914. 
 
What Is The Cost In 1943? 
 
: have sent men around- to the stores in Atlanta and 
ured prices of each of these 82 articles. Some few of 
a can not be purchased at the present time at any price. 
ever, | am using the figures that would represent the 
t according to the eran if they had them in stock. 
 
Ifa farmer went to the stores and bought one each of 
ase 82 articles, it would cost $1,271.93. If a farmer 
 
ght these articles today, the total cost would be $19.47 
 
e than the total cost would have been in 1919. 
 
Some of the articles, of course, are cheaper than they 
ein 1919. Some articles are higher than they were in

1919. But, the cost of buying all 82 of these oe is We 
er in 1943 than it was in 1919. This is all brought out L 
the table on the last page of this issue. 
 
Where Does. The Farmer Stand In This? 
 
In 1919 the average price that the farmer received for 
cotton, according to the United States Department of 
Agriculture, was 35.60 cents per pound. | 
 
The farmer today is receiving an average of. abo 
 
20.50 cents or 15.cents per pound less than he should re: 
 
ceive in order to be able to buy these 82 articles. ee 
The farmer is losing $75.00 on each 500 pound ball of 
 
middling 7-8 inch staple. 
 
In 1919 the farmer received an average price on . all 
wheat of $2.15 per bushel. Teday the farmer is receivi  
$1.50 for wheat. 
 
The wheat farmer would have to receive 659 oui pe 
bushel more for the wheat than he is getting in order to. 
able to buy the same 82 articles that he bought in 1919. 
 
Week before last, I showed you that if the farmer w 
to receive as large an income from cotton in 1943 as b 
received in 1919, that he would have to get 34.60 one pe 
pound. . 
- 4 RY showing you figures this week lene g 
that if the farmer was able to buy the same article in 1943 
that he bought in 1919, he would have to get 36 cents 2 
pound. | 
 
34.60 cents per ns for cotton would give fe fier 
 
the same number of dollars that he received in 1919. Bx 
 
it would take 36 cents per pound to give him enough dollars 
to buy the same articles that he bought i in 1919. : 
 
- In 1919, the farmer sold his peanuts at $240.00 per ton. 
Today he is receiving for base peanuts $140.00 per ton. 
 
The farmers.income trom peanuts is $100.00 per ton less  
 
than it was in 1919. If the farmer had the same buying 
power from peanuts that he had in 1919 it would be neces- : 
sary for him to get upward of $240.00 per ton. = 
 
Two weeks ago, I showed you that for the wheat farm- 
er to receive the same number of dollars in 1943 that he re- 
 
ceived in 1919, it would be necessary for him to Bet ap- 
proximately $9. 47 per bushel. 
 
T am showing you this week that the wheat futon 
be able to buy the same articles that he bought in 1919, that 
he would have to get upward of $2.15 per bushel. 
In 1919, the farmer received am average of $67. 00 per. 
ton for cottonseed. He would have to ret at least $70.00 
per ton for cottonseed in 1943 to buy the same articles he 
purchased in 1919. ; 
 
All Above Statements Are Based Oa 1919 cekcui 
All the statements above are based on the idea that the 
 
farmer was able to employ labor in 1943 of the same qualit;

and at the same price that he employed labor in 
 
1919. Everyone knows that today the farmer 
has less labor and higher priced labor than he 
 
did in 1919... * 
 
It is also true, as everyone knows, that toda  
many things are essential to the average farmer 
 
that were not required in 1919. The farmer is 
~ eompelled to buy equipment that he did not use 
generally in 1919. Some of these are automobiles, 
_ trucks, tractors and electrical equipment. 
 
- What Is Parity Today? 
 
: On page 818 of the Year Book of 1920, by Mr. 
 
; Henry . Wallace, is shown that the farmers 
purchasing power stood at 111% in 1919. : 
| According to the United States Department 
 
: e Agriculture and Secretary Wickard, the farm- 
 
ers purchasing power today should stand at 
Tn other words, the farmers purchasing 
higher in 1943 than it 
did in 1919. If 35.60 cents for cotton represented 
411%, then 165% of Mr. Wickards parity figures 
should be 52.80 cents per pound. In other words, 
- 52.80 represents actual parity for cotton middling 
7-8 inch staple today. At 52.80 cents per pound, 
a 500 pound bale of cotton will bring $264.00. Tt 
 
a cotton farmer makes 6 bales of cotton to the 
 
plow and received 52.80 cents per pound, the 
gross income from that one-horse farm from 
 
one-horse farm was cultivated by a share crop- 
per on halves, this would give the share cropper 
 
a gross income from cotton of $792.00 per year 
and out of this $792.00, he would have to pay alt 
 
his living expenses, together with fertilizer, 
seeds, ete. But, if we treat this $792.00 as a net 
 
- income to the share cropper and assume there are 
_ 4 people in the family, this would give the share 
-eropper an income of only $198.00 for each mem- 
 
ber of his family. Is there any inflation in 
- $198.00? Why, many war workers make that 
 
- much money in one week, and everybody is aware 
 
_ of this fact. 
oe The farmer has worked so long for nothing, 
 
many of them have become accustomed to it and 
even some farmers are backward about asking 
 
for a living price. 
* The Bureaucrats in Washington who are 
_ paying $100.00 to $200.00 a week for war workers 
 
jwill throw up their hands in holy horror at the 
 
idea of giving the farmer 52 cents per pound for 
eotton which would amount to $198.00 per year 
for the people who produce this great basie crop 
_ of the nation. | 
es The Secretary of Labor in Washington is 
very much eoncerned to see that labor gets a 
square deal. . 
_ The Secretary of Commerce is moving 
 
re 
 
  
 
heaven and earth to see that those engaged in 
international commerce are looked after. 
 
Why is it that the farmers own Department | 
 
in Washington instead of trying to help the farm- 
ef as it did in 1920, is doing all that it can to chain 
him down? | 
White Collar Workers 
 
The white collar worker is also the forgotten 
man. It is no wonder the white collar worker is 
in dire straits. Most of the white collar workers 
and all business in agricultural communities are 
dependent upon the farmers and the farmers in- 
eome for business. 
 
if the farmer was getting anything like true 
parity for his products, he would be going to 
town and buying evervthing that the merchant 
 
had to sell. 
 
tf the farmer had the money, he would be) 
employing the dentist to see that his familys 
teeth were in good shape. He would employ the 
doctor to see that the familys health was safe- 
guarded. He would buy more fertilizer and farm 
equipment. He would plant more crops and pro- 
duce mote food. He would hire more labor ana 
at higher prices~ He would revitalize the vein of. 
comimerce and trade in the small towhs and cities. 
The white collar workers would receive better 
salaries. They would be able to buy the things 
they need, to pay for a home to live in and to lav 
up a nest egg for themselves. , | 
 
The billions and billions of dollars that the, 
government is spending are creating inflatioa 
rapidly. Nothing would more effectively put the 
brakes on this inflation than allowing a reason- 
able part of this money to go on down to the 
farmer and increase production: 
 
If the farmer and white collar worker coula 
have more money, this would not increase the 
total circulation of money. It would simply make 
circulation more general and would have a tend: 
 
ency to reduce rather than to increase inflatiou. | 
 
Give the farmer, the white collar worker, 
the professional man and the business man a 
break. This will help the country and do more 
than anything else could possibly do to insure our 
success in winning the war. |
