Jones Moves
For Expanded
Farm Subsidies

WASHINGTON, Sept 30 tUPl
War Food Administrator Jones
opened the administration drive
for expanded farm subsidies today
by requesting Congress TO in
crease the WA price support and
subsidy authorization by $500. 600 =
600. which would make $1,000. :
900 900 available for the program.
He said AZ House banking and
currency committee hearing that
farm production costs arc rising
and that the government should
stand ready 10 absorb whatever
loss may be necessary.
The additional authorization re-
quested bv Jones would give the
VIA authority IN spend more
than 81 900. 000, 900. including pres
ent Commodity Credit Corpora
ton funds, for subsidies and price
supports during an indefinite
period starting Jan /. 1914 The
hearing at which Jones testified
was on Il bill TO extend the life
of the CCC beyond the present
Dec. 81 expiration date.
In requesting blanket authority
10 make loans and absorb losses
on 1914 food and feed production
Jones IA c . d strong opposition
from major farm organizations
and from stable block of con-
greSsmen who have demanded
higher consumer prices instead.
Jones asked Congress for au-
thorization TO purchase perishable
commodities and resell AT less
than parity whenever necessary
10 prevent waste. The present
CCC act prohibits the sale of any
farm commodity except grain for
livestock feed at below parity.
