Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. THE FARM BLOC, Wesley McCune, hardcover, 1943. BOOK CONDITION: good. The text block is in near fine condition, with no tears, dogears, or marks (but for a stain on pp. 50-51). The pages are age-toned. No signature or bookplate of a prior owner. Not a library book or remainder. The light green cloth boards are in good condition (bumped corners and spine, faded spine). 8 ĵ x 5 ½, 278 pages, 17 ounces XX [From the preface] BLOC, like "spit," has come to be a horrid word, but no accepted substitutes have evolved. Farmers and others who do like the term probably should blame newspapers for its promiscuous use, as the two short words, "farm bloc," are an editor's dream for fitting many connotations into a punchy headline. The way was paved for a farm bloc when, in 1789, it was decided at the Constitutional Convention to have a House of Representatives based on population and a Senate of two members from each state. By banding together, it technically became possible for senators from rural states to control the fate of legislation against the desire of a numerical majority of the people as a whole. From that mathematical root grew a plant which may not be indigenous to the United States but has often become a unique centerpiece in the American political panorama. As such, the farm bloc has been hit by more than a usual number of brickbats. If I throw any of them it is not because I want to kick farmers around. No one wants to do that; nor does anyone want to buy food at prices unfair to the farmers who work long hours to grow it. XX [From the author's 2003 obituary] Wesley McCune, 87, who founded and for more than 30 years directed a Washington-based research and news organization that tracked right-wing organizations and individuals, died of congestive heart failure Sept. 22 at Washington Hospice. From 1962 until 1996, Mr. McCune produced a monthly newsletter, Group Research Report, operating out of a three-room downtown office, crammed with file cabinets, newspaper clippings, hundreds of back issues of right-wing pamphlets and periodicals, and extensive files on the American right. He sold his papers and files to Columbia University in 1996, shut down the newsletter and retired. He was never really sure, he said, what it was that inspired him to organize Group Research, but he told The Washington Post in 1987 that "maybe it comes from being a farm boy. I could lift up a rock and see a lot of interesting things." An avowed liberal himself, he became over the years a regular source of information for journalists, congressmen, labor organizations, universities, the Justice Department and political campaigns looking for ammunition against conservative opponents. A reporter for Newsweek, Time and Life during the 1940s, Mr. McCune was executive assistant from 1948 to 1953 to Charles Brannan, the secretary of agriculture during the Truman administration. In the late 1930s, he came to Washington as an economist for the Department of Agriculture, and he lived mostly in this area for the rest of his life.
