But the American youth, DR..
Bibring has found, tries to cope
with his fears about life and love

in love than of starting an affair.

Warren Asked 10 Convene
LEGISLATURE on Bus Strike

LOS ANGELES, June 19.-A
request for a special legislative

than average growing conditions. 1t won't
be as easy to make money as in the years
right after the war. But it should be more
prosperous than the prewar years. It will
be year when good management will pay
real dividends.
The international situation is unnredict-

of the world scene seem to agree that war
is unlikely during the next few years. There
is still at least the possibility that there
will be no general war in this generation.
Aggressors of the past have capitalized on
the opportunity provided by unprepared-

war-minded dictators will think at least

Real Production Control Is Needed

Some of the PIMA men feel that it was
mistake to permit farmer to overplant
one crop and still obtain benefits on some
other crop by complying with its allotment
provisions Most of them believe that real
production control will fail if such loose
plan is followed beyond 1885,
They say southern farmers are planning
to plant corn on acres taken out of cotton
and tobacco Some Atlantic coast growers
will plant acreage taken out of grain to
vegetables. Farmers of the great plains
states will seed barley and other grains on
land taken out of wheat And those from
dairy sections are concerned over the milk
surplus that may result if acres retired from
grain go into pastures.
The answer to this tendency to move out
of one surplus crop into another, in the
opinion of PIMA committeeman from many
states, is to require that every farmer COM

May 1850 Be Good to You

WHILE the lush prosperity of the early
postwar period is giving way to more
normal price relationships as the economic
readjustment progresses, the movement has
been quite orderly compared with compar-
able periods of the past. Prices of farm and
ranch products were the first to benefit from
the war stimulus. They scared higher and
faster than those of most other commodities.
It was inevitable that they should fall more
quickly when the downtrend got under
way. But there has been no such collapse as
occurred after World war / and there is
no indication that anything of the kind is
in prospect for 1850.
Demand for most farm commodities re-
mains at relatively high level. While ex-
port markets will begin to taper off before
long they will continue in substantial vol
ume for some time to come In the meantime
a sharply rising population in the United
States will maintain domestic food con-
sumption well above prewar averages. And
the broad government price support pro-
gram will provide more or less effective
cushion while agriculture strives to bring
production into balance with effective
demand

MAYHEM state committeeman of the Pro-
w duction and Marketing Administration
formerly the AAA) met in annual conven-
tion at Memphis few weeks ago, they had
an opportunity to compare notes and ex-
press opinions about the future of the fed
eral farm program What they had to say
was based on their experience as farmers
as well as what they had learned in admin
istering the farm support programs.
While these men differed on many ques-
tions they were pretty well agreed that
farmers and stockgrowers of the United
States must achieve effective production
control or they, or the country, will go
broke. They are convinced that if farmers
continue to produce at top speed taxpayers
will sooner or later refuse to pay the in
creasing cost of support programs IT, and
when, that happened farm prices would
crash as they did after World war /.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-01-01
Basics Fare Best In New Law

Perishable products that are in surplus
supply are the most difficult to support eff
fectively. For this reason and because there
is a definite limitation to available funds,
the department of agriculture may feel
compelled to be somewhat conservative in
establishing supports. In most instances the
support level for such commodities will be
lower than go percent.
Many administrative headaches will de-
velop as the year progresses and there will
be numerous cases of dissatisfaction among
producer groups where surpluses are large
and support programs not too effective. The
new law is an improvement over its prede-
cessors but it has weaknesses which will
become more apparent as the year unfolds.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-01-01

LyARMERS who produce wheat, corn, cot
u ton, tobacco, rice or peanuts-the
called basic commodities are promised 80
percent of parity support for 1850 under
the agricultural act of 1949 which becomes
effective January 1.
Producers of other farm commodities
may receive support at level, not exceed
retary of agriculture in accordance with
number of factors outlined in the new law.
Where this level will be fixed will vary
with individual commodities. 1t will de-
pend upon the amount of money that has
been provided by congress- types of support
plans available, and numerous other con-
Siderations.

ply with all crop allotments and with con-
servation practices in order to get loans or
ACP payments
Some of the committeeman, particularly
those from southern states, favor market
ing quotas instead of acreage allotments
They contend that allotments cannot be
made sufficiently effective to adequately
control production even if multiple compli-
ance is required. There'are too many oppor-
tunities to improve production on the re-
naming acreage by better tillage, improved
seed or greater use of fertilizer.
There was not much talk about the
Brannan plan at the PIMA convention but
some of the committeeman from hog and
dairy districts think production payments
may be the only answer for perishable COM
modities in the years ahead.
