Government Support
OF Farm Prices Urged
By Senator Aiken
BY the Associated Press.

bs iue hSSOClsIeQ fIeSs.
Government support of agri-
cultural prices to encourage
maximum food production was
proposed today by Senator Aiken,
Republican. Of Vermont. an out
spoken critic of the administra-
tons rollback subsidy program.
Back from talks with farmers In
his home State, Senator Aiken told
reporters he was convinced that a
support price program, such as al
ready has been applied to potatoes
and pork, could be made to work
for all major farm commodities.
"A support price, based on the
cost of production. produces the
goods and that's what we want" P"
Senator Aiken declared, adding
that it was his opinion the volume
Of production which would be OBJ
tanned under such a program would
eliminate the possibility of sky
rocketing food prices.
AS an illustration, the Vermonter
said the Governments action in
guaranteeing a fixed price to pro-
ducers had boosted the supply of
potatoes and pork to record levels.
On the other hand, he said, attempts
to roll back prices Of beef and but
ter by the payment of subsidies to
professors had resulted in decreased
production.
Predicting that any price in
creases under his suggested pro-
gram would be relatively small,
Senator Aiken said he believed they
would offer no basis for wage in
crease demands by labor.
IF there are wages that are too
low, they ought to be adjusted" he
said. "On the whole, I think it
would be better for labor and
everybody else to have some slight
increases in food costs rather than
have no food"
Remarking that the Government
had not quibbled about the prices
it had to pay to get volume produc-
tion of war equipment, Senator
Aiken said he could not understand
why the same principle should not
be applied to farm products.
Il never have been able to see why
we should have one program for
industry and another for agricul-
ture," he said.
