twenty-four per cent of the national |
population and thirty-one per cent,

pbput 1
! methods are available, fie]
increasing farm income: (1)1
Government payments; (S&J
rm prices at higher levels ]
governmental decrees; (8)1
; commodity loan rates and]
ibaidiea; (4) applying the!
of marketing certificates. I
x not permit publication ofl
ice's discussion of the first |
Lhods, but below will bel
i reasons why he recom- j

i a government revolving pool to pur
chase certificates from farmers and
sell them to manufacturer* whenever
necessary in order not only to main
tain the market price of the certifi
cates at their face value but also to
; make buying and selling a conveni
, ent operation and to assure that an
. adequate supply of certificates would
be available for the needs of manu
facturers and importers at all times.
(2) A marketing certificate plan
would achieve fire benefits qf pro
cesaipg taxes without entailing their

ment would not. be a 4gxj tjhe pw?

period u cojjld be obtained through a
marketing certificate plan.
(b) A marketing certificate plan
would aleo give agriculture a . more
dependable and permanent form of
jftpencing than the other alternatives,
and one that would be mbre neaHy
comparable to those now enjoyed by
industry through tariffs, quotas, fran
chises, and patents.
(c) A marketing certificate plan
would contribute more than any of
the other alternatives toward pro
duction adjustment and increased soil
conservation. It has already been
pointed out that proposals either -for
price-fixing or for high loans would
tend in themselves to constitute in
centives for the abandonment of pro
duction adjustment and sod conser
vation.
(d) A marketing certificate plan
is obviously superior to the other al
ternatives from the standpoint of,
budgetary considerations, since such
a plan would require no appropria
tions.
(e) A marketing certificate plan
has several special advantages over
the other principal alternatives: .
It would avoid the danger of inter
ference with the Trade Agreements
Program, through fire long continu
ed use of export subsidies.
It would avoid ihe accumulation of
unmarketable surpluses.
It would avoid the undesirable en
croachment of government upon, busi
ness functions,

Vegetable Laxative
Has Important Points
? Ifost people want a laxative to do
three things: (1) act punctually, .
(2) act thoroughly, (8) act gently.
Herelrone that usually fills all
three requirements when the easy
directions are followed. Ifs an all- ,
vegetable product vthose principal ?
ingredient has medical recognition
ax an "intestinal tonic-laxative."
That's the ingredient which en
ables BLACK - DRAUGHT to help
' tome laxy bowel muscles.' It is the
main reason for the satisfying re
lief from constipation that gener
ally follows next morning when
BLACK- DRAUGHT is taken xt '
bedtime. The millions of packages
: used are' pzoof of its merit,
