Administration Studies
Compromise Plan for
Crop Price Support
BY the Associated Press

The Truman administration is
expected to come up soon with a
compromise plan" on ways of
preventing a new farm depression
and vast crop surpluses.
Farm leaders in and out of
Congress are divided sharply as
to what the Government should
do. The split centers around the
question Of whether there should
be return to prewar crop control
methods.
Secretary Brannan and his
Agriculture Department aides are
working on a program aimed at
bringing the conflicting views
together.
Measures being studied by the
Administration-but not vet nee
essarily adopted-include: Use
Of flexible price supports for non
pershable crops. consumer sub
sides for perishable foods. and
marketing programs aimed at
keeping low quality and low grade
fruits and vetables off the markets.
Flexible Supports Slated.
Some farm leaders want to keep
Indefinitely a wartime system of
rigid price supports for such
storable crops as cotton, wheat,
corn. tobacco, rice and peanuts.
This system directs the Depart
ment to support producer prices
Of these crops at 80 per cent of
parity.
parity is a legal standard
for measuring farm prices. de-
signed to be equally fair to
farmers and non-farmers.) Fl
This system will be replaced
next year with a setup of flexible
supports, ranging between so and
80 per cent of parity. unless Con-
gress directs otherwise. Under
this system. supports would be
highest in periods of crop short
ages and lowest in times of sur
pluses.
Critics contend the rigid sup
ports would force use of rigid pro-
duction and marketing quotas to
prevent surpluses which. they say,
could cost the Government billions
of dollars.
Foes of the flexible supports
argue that these would permit
farm income to drop to ruinously
low levels. They also contend low
price guarantees would be more
likely to promote surpluses be-
cause growers would tend to plant
more land in order to offset loss of
returns which would result from
lower prices.
IS Per Cent Floor Considered.
The flexible supports were writ

farm bill passed by the Repub-
lican 80th Congress-.
Under it, growers of the basic
crops would get price supports at
IS per cent of parity, when sup
plies of the respective crops were
normal-that is, neither too short
nor too big to meet market needs
and to provide reserve. AS
supplies advanced above normal,
price supports would drop below
rs per cent and visa versa.
Plans under Administration
study would change this to provide
for supports at 80 per cent of
parity when supplies were normal.
AS supplies grew larer than nor
NAL, supports would be reduced,
but not below rs per cent of parity.
For example. suppose that the
parity price of wheat is $3.50 a
bushel and the supply of the
Grain is normal. Under the Aiken
law, the price support would be
rs per cent of $2.20, or $1,65 a
bushel.
But under the suggested COM
promise plan, the price support

or $1.98.
Provides Market Controls.
Further, the minimum support
under the Aiken law would be so
per cent of $3.50, or $l.32. Under
the other plan it would be $1.65.
The Aiken law provides for pro-
duction and marketing controls.
In years when they were used,
price supports could not drop
below 70 per cent of parity. Under
the suggested plan, supports
would be 80 per cent Of parity
under control programs.
In other words. the possible
Administration plan would re-
duce the degree of flexibilty of the
Aiken law. 1t also would provide
for considerably higher supports
in times of normal supplies and
when crop controls were used.
AS in now the case, supports on
these basic crops would be based
largely on Government loans to
growers holding surpluses of
markets.

Taylor Star as A. u.
Takes Series Lead

Righthander Johnny McLachlan
drew the pitching assignment for
American University today as the
Eagles moved to Chestertown. Md,
to play Washington College in the
second game of three-game
series for the Mason-Dixon Con-
ference baseball championship. All
he had to do was emulate Dick
Taylor's 7-hit stint yesterday to
make Coach Staff CaSsell and A. U.
supporters happy.
Taylor, a thin, bespectacled
youngster who looks like anything
but a pitcher. twirled the Eagles
to a 20 decision over Washington
here yesterday. It was his second
consecutive win over the Shoremen
and he went along today just in
case he's needed for relief duty.
Whether starting or relief1ng
floundering brethren, it's all the
same to the Western High School
alumnus. Taylor has appeared in
II of A. us IA games this season,
chalking up six victories against
one defeat on his own, and saving
several other games.
Taylor held American to three
hits last week but was nicked for
seven yesterday. He needed per-.
feet pickoff throw to first by
Catcher Lamon that removed one
of two Washington batters on base
in the sixth. to help ease him over
a bad situation. At all other times
he was the master.
Ken Sullivan of Washington was
even stingier with hits. giving up
only two. But a couple of walks
in the first inning, a balk, and
Joe Hossick's long fay gave the
Eagles one run. American scored
again in the seventh when Taylor
was safe on an error, advancing
on a walk and inf1eld out, and
came home on Hossick's single.

While 2,216 trees were planted
during the fiscal year ended June
80, a total of 2,274 were removed
for various reasons. the annual
report Of the Trees and Parking
Division disclosed yesterday.
Most of the trees planted were

the report submitted to the Com
misAoners by Supt. John M. Bat

Celebrating on the report. Mr..
Batson said the elimination OF
forest growth" trees in outlying
areas for streets and sidewalks &C
counted for the removal of more
trees than were planted.
He said the division attempts to
replace every tree destroyed along
the city streets, and more trees
were planted during the last fiscal
year than in the year before. when
about 1900 were set out.
The division plans to increase
the number of tree settings this
year, he added. He said the
planters now are attempting to
catch up with the work of replac-
ing trees that failed or were re-
moved during the war.
A total of 43.977 trees were
sprayed in the campaign against
tent caterpillars, elm leaf beetles,
elm bark beetles, japanese beetles
and other pests.
The city heads were informed
that a survey was made and
scouting crews were organized to
combat "the threatening Dutch
elm disease that may endanger
our $4,000 elm trees. Additional
attention was given the elms in
