30 AGRICULTURAL RELIEF Mr. Jones. We would be helpless, anyway, and the big question in this is the constitution of the board and the good faith of the board. The board must have not only what we are talking about here, but these other facts, and they must act in good faith, or you would not have anything. Mr. Gray. A very'large amount, as I agree and as all the conferees will agree, is the element of good faith in the Federal Farm Board. If you should get a farm board that is nonagricultural in mind, I presume no recommendations and no publicity of the advisory coun- cils could require it to act in the proper method; but we have the belief that in building up these councils as here suggested to you now, you are getting a method of impressing upon the Federal Farm Board the authoritative voice of the producers of 50 per cent of the com- modity which we have never yet encountered in any bill that has been thus far introduced. Mr. Apxkins. In districts where there are surpluses of any commod- ity produced, in the Corn Belt, the Wheat Belt, the Cotton Belt, and every other belt, I suppost a board made up in that district, a large number would be naturally in favor of doing something to relieve the major commodity of a large surplus. Mr. Gray. I would think so. Mr. KercaaM. Just one more question and then I am done. Going back to section 3, I read the following paragraph, cutting out all of the intermediate language. Let us just use the words “when,” “then” and “shall,” for instance, section 7 says when the advisory council and so forth and so on, and in the first paragraph the board so and so, and the second, so and so, “when” they find it—now, what I say is this, that when the advisory council finds a certain thing, as in A, and the board finds certain things as in the first para- graph, and certain things as they find it in the second provision, then jumping to line 4, the language is, “then the board shall arrange for the marketing of the surplus.” What I am getting at is this. Is it not the intention of this series of amendments you have suggested to make these advisory councils practically a determining body as to whether or not the period shall be set up and the functions of the board discharged, without submitting their judgment to the final review and veto of the board itself? Mr. Gray. No. If you had left off that last clause I could have answered yes. But the Federal farm board is the functioning body to put into operation those provisions of the marketing agreement which begin at line 4 on the top of page 10 of the chairman’s bill; but it is intended honestly that we will give to the advisory council an 1nitiatory power which along with the findings of the board will result in marketing agreements, disregarding that last clause of your question. But the Federal farm board, if it does not concur in or obey the recommendations of the advisory councils, can fail to see that conditions first and second enumerated in these amendments are binding. , . Mr. Kercaam. Then you would not object to putting something in lines 4 and 5 that would clarify that, and enlarge the definition by saying “after publicly declaring its findings and the findings of the advisory council” or some language of that kind? Mr. Gravy. 1 do not know what language you would put in there, of course, but I think we could hardly consent to any language that
