| Summary, etc. |
"Farm poverty is by no means confined to the so-called 'submarginal' or 'disadvantaged' areas. Driving through almost any part of the American countryside a casual observer sees the unpainted, broken-down buildings of farmers who cannot make ends meet. Even comfortable homes, with rich broad acres of grain or cotton, orchards, large truck gardens, herds of well-fed cattle, have forlorn neighbours not far away, with poor crops, stringy cattle, and all the obvious signs of a hard existence. And many of the farmers in the comfortable houses are wondering how long they can keep going. For 'recovery' from the severe crisis of 1929-33 has not restored to the farmers the gross income or the purchasing power which they had in the 1920s. And for the farmers, even the 1920s were no golden era. Farmers were faring much less well than they had fared before the World War." -- From Chapter I. |
