Former Premier Joseph Caillaux predicted a "collapse of the public finances" if an additional burden were imposed through a too large aid to agriculture.

Wallace Suggests Livestock Tax to Cut Corn Surplus KANSAS CITY. June 28 Declaring agriculture faces the threat of overproduction In beef cattle and hogs, Secretary of Agri culture Henry A.
