Efficiency Should
REPLACE Subsidies
By The AssoeIo,ed Press

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. Ia
Secretary of Agriculture Benson
is putting American farmers on
notice that they must depend
more upon themselves than upon
Government subsidies in the
future.
price supports should provide
insurance against disaster" Mr..
Benson said. '"Those that en-
courage uneconomic production,
resulting in continuing heavy
surpluses and subsidies, should
be avoided"
Addressing about 5000 farm
ers of the Central Livestock
Association here last night, Mr..
Benson promised the farm sup
port program would be carried
out faithfully by the new ad-
ministration. He said. there
will be no blanket promises to
embark on actions which we
have neither the authority to
invoke nor the means to imple-
ment." >.
"Inefficiency," he continued.
should not be subsidized in
agriculture or any other econ
omy, and relief programs should
be operated as such. Too many
Americans are calling on Wash
ington to do for them what they
should be willing to do for them
selves"
The Secretary said that de-
clining cattle prices had been in
effect when he came into Office
in January. He called the situ-
alton an "unorderly and tempo
rary adjustment" resulting from
the big Jump in numbers Of
cattle the past few years.
Mr.. Benson said he would
confer with dairymen next Tues
day relative to price support for
butter. The present 80 per cent

Apparently the Eisenhower ad-
ministration is coming around
to this point of view. Some
changes may be made in the
original proposal, but the chances
seem good that the order will
be issued before long.
1t would apply only to those
Federal workers who passed
civil service exams in order to
get their jobs. With the Gov
ernment operating on an indefi-
mite hiring basis since the out
break Of the Korean war. these
employees have not had a chance
to secure permanent status. even
though they passed civil service
exams.
The new order would give
them reserve status-greater job
protection rights than those
who did not pass civil service
exams. Then, eventually, these
employees would be given perma-
nent status.
