Black Calls Brannan Plan Political Scheme

John D. Black, professor of Economics, labeled the Brannan Plan a measure of political expediency at a Liberal Union forum in Emerson D last night.

Black, speaking against the recently rejected plan to maintain farm prices at 90 per cent of a parity computed over a recent ten-year period, claimed that Brannan returned from a trip among the farmers a politician and framed his plan as a means of gaining support for the Democratic Party.

Walter Wilcox, professor of Agricultural Economy at the University of Wisconsin, and John Galbraith, lecturer in Economics, spoke in favor of the plan.
