New Support Methods
Being Considered

of corn, wheat, cotton, rice, tobacco,
and peanuts at 80 per cent of parity
through this year and next.
2. Butter, milk, wool, mohair,
honey, and tung nuts must be sup
ported, but the Secretary has the
power to determine from time to
time the specific level of support.
This may be from low of so per
cent to a high of 80 per cent of
parity.
Dairy products will be supported
at 80 per cent of parity for another
year, as announced recently by Ben
son. Wool is at 90 per cent, mohair
and honey at rs per cent, and tung
nuts at 81 per cent of parity.
8. The Secretary may or may not
support all other commodities any
where from per cent to 80 per cent
of parity, depending on supply and
demand factors and his discretion.
The one exception is potatoes which
are forbidden support under present
law.
Commodities in this group now be-
ing supported include barley, oats,
rye, sorghums, flaxseed, all at 80
per cent of parity; soybeans at go
per cent of parity; beans, cottonseed
and crude pine gum at 80 per cent
of parity.

WASHINGTON, D. CA great
majority of lawmakers on Capitol
Hill believe that farmers do not
want to give up federal price-sup-
port subsidies they now are receiv-
ing-at least, until new methods of
support are found that work just as
well.
Surveys indicate that farmers
generally would prefer less gov
eminent in their business: also
that they agree. in principle
with Agriculture Secretary Ben
son that price supports should be
Insurance" against disaster
rather than guarantees of profit.
Commodity groups meeting with
the Secretary in Washington, how
ever, have made it clear they want
present support levels maintained
until new methods are found that
will keep income up. Dairymen, for
instance, told Benson they shared
his horror of s'New Deal handouts"
but insisted On continuation of 90
per cent-of-parity support. Under
law, this support could have been re-
duced to rs per cent of parity, but
Benson went along on the maximum
level

Bolster Cattle Prices

Farm-state congressman on
Capitol HILL taking hand in
the cattle crisis. have called upon
the agriculture Department and
other government departments
TO follow through on a A-step
program for bolstering cattle
prices" They are:
l. More credit for stockmen who
need to "carry stock through crit
cal market PERIOD" to prevent
forced marketing; and to avoid
liquidation of foundation herds.
2. Utilize import controls over inn
ports of cattle and beef IN such a
way shat they will not undu1y dis
rupt or depress markets for domestic
farm products" This should be done
to the extent consistent with good
international relations"
3. USDA should encourage pur-
chase of types and grades of meats
and other products Suffering the
most severely from the present de-
cline in farm prices" for the federal
school lunch program. Department
funds now available for such price
Strengthening purchases now total
the substantial sum of almost $500
million, mostly derived from customs
receipts.
4. Military procurement of beef
should be stepped up" as directed
by the President.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1953-03-15

Benson insists meanwhile
that solutions for present price
programs must be found soon.
And he implies. If he does not
say so outright. that unless COM
modify groups find their own
answers. a considerable degree
of government subsidY-and con-
trol-probablY would continue.
Substitutes for present price sup
ports being talked about most in
Washington are price insurance, and
two-price plans.
Price insurance plans being dis
cussed would be farmer-financed.
In return for payment of a small
premium the farmers price would be
guaranteed at predetermined
level. Marketing competition would
be preserved by making premiums
the difference between the insured
price and a national average price.
Two-price systems are being con-
sidered in case of commodities that
are exported in quantity, such as
wheat and cotton. Wheat growers,
for instance, would receive a guar
anteed price for domestic sales, then
take whatever the going market
price might be for the proportion of
the crop sold abroad.

Rev. Wilkinson Resigns Passionate

The Rev. R. N. Wilkinson, ] pastor of the Community Bap- tis Church, has resigned his pastorate and plans to leave Kodiak late in May. He has been pastor here since August 1947.
 His resignation, presented to the membership recently stated: Ut is my conviction that I will have completed my ministry in this church and l would like to terminate my of- ficial relationship with the church at the close of a fur tough in the states.
 Rev. Wilkinson said he did not know the location of his new work since the usual practice of the Baptist denomi- nation requires a minister to candidate in the churches which may be interested Tn calling him as their new pas tor.
 Rev. and Mrs. Wilkinson ar rived here on Aug. 5, l947 with their two young sons. Norman and Paul. During their stay here two other children, Linda Ruth and Andrew Thomas have been born.
