DESTRUCTION OF FOOD
CONDEMNED BY MAYOR OF NEW YORK. ATTACK ON NEW DEAL POLICY. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright NEW YORK, August 8. Sharply attacking the New Deal’s "plough-under policy,” the Mayor of New York, Mr La Guardia, urged subsidising of the export of meat and dairy produce. Political circles interpret the attack as a possible bid for nomination for the Presidency or Vice-Presidency in 1940.
Mr La Guardia said: "I do not believe in destroying what God has given us. We do not suffer from any surplus. We lack the purchasingpower to provide for all the people.”
