10. How Much Will the
Brannan Plan Cost?

No one knows. No one knows the
law. How much do subsidies to 9TH
err groups cost? How much does the
American public pay for the protect
i've tariff for industry? The tariff
in effect is subsidy. Farmers pay
that subsidy when they buy costly
much does the ess-than-cost-postal
service cost American taxpayers !?
The present low postal rates are in
effect subsidy to the big mail order
houses, the big publishing companies,
granting them hundreds of millions
of dollars year that otherwise
would go to Uncle Sam. How much
subsidy do railroads get when the
government puts a floor under their
income by fixing freight and pas
senger rates? How much does it
cost the American taxpayer to keep
the private airlines flying? Not only
airlines but steamship lines get size
able government subsidies. How
much do consumers pay private cleo
trio light companies that buy low-cost
government power, transmit it over
government power lines and sell it
at jacked-up prices?
The aim is more abundant produc-
ton and more varied and healthful
For every $3,OOO,OOO,-
900 of farm purchasing power, 1,OOO,-
900 men are kept working at good
jobs in the cities. With more work
ers buying, farm prices are strength
ened. The whole economy will be
improved and stabilized.
IL. RECOMMENDATION?
Does the Brannan plan regiment
the farmer? The present Aiken-An-
derson law regiments the farmer
at so per cent of parity on six basic
and flexible to zero
prices on other farm commodities. |
Do farmers want regimen ton
~ 100 per cent of parity or 60 per
.ent or less? Brannan's plan would
,e administered locally by the demo-
radically elected farmer committee
men and would be subject to review
~ congress.

iiYOU CAN MAKE IT"

On almost every farm, there is a
handy man or boy who could make
useful articles out of discarded box
es or odd pieces of lumber if he had
some simple plans or directions to
follow. Some years ago, we called
attention to three booklets that con-
tain just this sort of information and
we are happy to say they are still
available. Each booklet describes
and illustrates about 100 articles and
the titles pretty well indicate the
contents. They are: Volume l, "You
Can Make IT.; Volume 2, "You Can
Make 1t For Camp and Cottage"
And Volume 8, "You Can Make It
For Profit" They are priced at 15c
each and may be ordered direct from

THE BRANNAN PLAN EXPLAINED s.

parity supports would be maintain
ed by commodity loans and purchase
agreements in much the same man
ner as today In any event the mini
mum floor is maintained. A farmer
selling wheat at $3.50 per bushel
would be entitled to supports up to
a $1.88 per bushel income for 1850.
4. Support Limited
The family farm is favored under
the plan as supports are limited by
cutting benefits after a farm exceeds
a certain size. Maximum units of
production on which supports would
apply are 1900 units. A unit of corn
is ten bushels, a unit of wheat is TIT
bushels, a unit of beef is So pounds.
Support on wheat would be limited to
1900 times 7.77 bushels or total
of 1896 bushels. Amy production
over this amount would have to be
sold on the market without support.
are the unit equivalents
on our familiar farm commodities:

[. New Parity Formula

BY new definition, parity income
is that income which will provide
farm people a standard of living
available to people engaged in other
gainful occupations. The Depart
ment of Agriculture will determine
the average annual farm purchasing
power and compare that to what
farmers as a group should have re-
ceived to buy the things they need to
enjoy the same standard of living en-
joyed by other groups in America.
The 1909-1914 parity base will be
abandoned and a new modern, "mov-
ing" parity base will be adopted.
Cash returns of farm products for
the first ten of the last twelve years
will be determined for yearly aver
age. An index of prices paid by farm
ers for. goods and services including
allowances for taxes and interest will
be worked out. This index will be a
parity factor and will really show
the relationship between what farm
ers receive for their produce and
what they pay for things they buy.
The average cash receipts for the ten
years 1940-49 (using only an esti-
mate for 1949) was S20,98O, 100000.
To arrive at what American farmers
should have received, we multiply
S2O,98O,000 by 1.25 (the parity fac
tori and get $26,225, 100000 as the
minimum farm income standard for
1850. With the national economy
bouncing around every year these
figures would vary.
Even on ten-year moving average
with the oldest year being dropped
and the new year added, some change
would take place. But the parity fact
or would always show the correct re-
lationship. That factor may be LIS
one year, 1.35 another. 1t was LA
for the years 1939-48.
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1950-02-03
3. Production Payments

Farmers would market their pro-
duce, taking whatever the going mar
ket prices were. Where the market
price was below the parity price on
any commodity the government
would make production payments di-
rect to the farmer TO fill the gap be-
tween what he received and what he
should have received For example,
a poultry farmer marketing eggs at
Sc cents dozen would be given
production payment by the govern
ment to make up the difference be-
tween So cents and 45.8 cents per
dozen. The farmer would take his
marketing records to the local PIMA
committee where the proper forms
would be filled and compliance indi-
Gated, thus qualifying him for the
parity payments. Cash production
payments are planned for all perish
able commodities. With storables,

AS farmers come to realize the
great weaknesses of the present Ak
en-Anderson farm law recently en-
acted by the 81st Congress they are
asking more questions about the farm
plan advanced by Charles F. Bran
nan, Secretary of Agriculture. At
the Martin Byrne meetings in Mon
tana and at the recent series of coun-
ty schools conducted by Montana
Farmers Union officers, high inter
est was shown in the Brannan plan.
Many inquiries on the Bra1nan plan
are coming into the state office. The.
Brannan plan is slated for discussion
when Congress reconvenes.

2. Parity By Commodities

Once the standard of total income
farmers should receive as minimum
is established, that income has to be
translated into price levels for indi-
vidual farm commodities. Speaking
of 1850 prices, Brannan says, "Since
the support standard is LIS times
the average cash receipts, the support
price schedule would be determined
by multiplying the 1940-49 average
farm price for each of several COM
modities by 1.25". On that basis,
parity prices would be as follows US

WHAT is THE BRANNAN
PLAN?

In general the plan would guaran-
tee agricultural producers as a ma
tional group 100 per cent parity of
income in the following manner:

6. Soil Building For Compliance

Farmers will be expected under
the Brannan plan to accept reason
able soil-conservation practices in
order to comply for supports. When
ever it is found necessary to curtail
wasteful production such measures
as acreage allotments, marketing
quotas and marketing agreements
may be adopted through referendums

of farmers and authority of the Sec
rotary of Agriculture. The plan is
expected not only to strengthen farm
income but also build the soil. I'm
proved income will enable farmers
to take better care of the soil.
z. More Diversification
The Brannan plan will allow farm
ers to shift their production volun-
tarily. No particular farm commod-
tiles will be favored as they are in
the present law. Therefore, many
farmers who are now producing
wheat in some parts of the country
will return to more dairy, poultry
and vegetable production. This will
help relieve the surplus pressure, for
the present law helps build unman-
ageable SURPRISES. At the same time
a more balanced diet will be avail
able for American consumers.
