 Inside fact behind tho senate Small Business COmmltsee's release of the report on smal-scsM s. farming s that the report has been suppressed foi nearly two years by big California land interests
 The very fact that the Bureau of AgricutufM Economies dared make the study was one reason tns last Congrew cut It's research funds The Btuuy et infurIated Representative Al Elliott, California Dem' ocrat and friend of the big farmers, that ne hal fought all appropriations Tor farm research ever since,
 The study was begun in the Summer Of iV44 while Congressman Elliott was leading q rgnt W repeal the old law by which no one could own more than iBO acres of D. B. reclamation land, The Btuut compared two towns fin the San Joaquin Valley Sec- ton of Calfofna'B huge central valley-one, Arvin b comprised mainly of workers large ndustriallEed farms; the other, Dnuba made up largely Of peo- pie who own and work their own farms
 It was found that Dinuba, the small farm com. munity, had two independent business establishments to every In Aryin, the big farm communityi that retail trade was Of percent greater in DinuDa tnat 20 percent more people were supported by the same dollar volume in agriculture in Dinba than in Arvin that the residents of Dinuba had far higher sanus ard of lvingbetter streets garbage disposal schools parks, public recreation, more churches, participation in local government two newspapers to one.
 The study was recognized by economists @ Of great importance but the pressure of large farnefB and andholders was too great It lay buried until 1t was brought to the attention of farminded Senator Jim Murray of Montana, Chairman of the Small Business Committee. He determined to publish It.
 His first difficulty was in getting it from the Department of Agriculture. Top officials there fear- fu of offending the big farm operators, held out for weeks Murray then had to beat down the opposition Of Republicans on his own committee, who dld not know much about the study, but had been warned t was something they should oppose.
 Murray persevered however until the study final- iy was made public this week.
