John C. Adams, counselor of
the Department of the Army.
to procure an assignment for
Mr.. Schine in the New York
City area upon his induction
into the Army. Mr.. Cohn
coupled these requests with
threats that If they were not
granted he would cause the
Army to be exposed in its
worst light and demonstrate
to the country how shabbily
it was being run. These re-
quests and threats are believed
to have been made with the
knowledge and consent Of

tary of the Army to arrange

ton into the Army, on the

Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1954-07-13

Although farmers have been led
to believe that 90 per cent supports
created high commodity prices,
actually it was unprecedented war
time demands and galloping in
flation which held farm prices a.
bove 100 per cent of parity be-
tween 1912 and 1852. When those
forces abated, we were not able
to hold wheat, corn and peanuts
at 90 per cent of parity, even with
price supports at that level.
Much of our current trouble
with grain surpluSes stems direct
ly from the fact that our price sup
port programs have encouraged
farmers to produce cereals as
grain rather than as animal feed
or to put it another way, to pro-
duce corn and wheat for storage,
beyond what Americans need
rather than for meat, eggs and
other livestock products which the
American people need and will
buy.

New Farm Program Needed
Says Secretary Benson

BY EZRA TAFT BENSON u. S.
Secretary of Agriculture
reprinted from the Grain and
Feed Journal
AS you know, agriculture has re-
Gently been travelling a pretty
rough road. Farm income has fall
len in five out of the past six
years.
Our agricultural problems have
been aggravated by a severe
drought in parts of our range area
and by an accumulation of sur
pluses such as this country has
never witnessed before.
The national farm programs,
which were intended to bolster
farm prices and income, obviously
have not done their job.
This Administration has pledged
itself to help agriculture gain a
fair share of the national income.
Experience clearly shows that
the present price support program
cannot be depended upon to funct-
ion effectively in helping farmers
achieve this goal.
Need New Program
We need a new program for
four basic reasons:
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1954-07-13

We have made an investment
of nearly 2A billion to support
wheat at 80 per cent of parity -
but the average market price of
wheat is only 90 per cent of parity.
We have made an investment of
S1.3 billion to support corn at 90
per cent of parity-but the aver
age market price of corn is, only
so per cent of parity.
The present program helps least
those farmers who need help most;
and it helps most those who need
it least.
The eating habits of the Ameri-
can people have changed consider
ably in recent, decades. 1 don't
mean that the poundage of food
consumed per person has changed
significantly, but that the quality
of the diet today is much different
from what it was 40 or SO years
ago.
Buck Consumer Preferences
Last year, for example, Ameri-
cans consumed per person 223
pounds more of such foods as
meats, eggs, fish, dairy products,
fruits and vegetables than they
did in 1909. They offset this by
eating 222 pounds less of grain
products and potatoes.
This is a vitally important fact.
1t indicates the kind of foods A
merican buyers want.
But do we recognize this? On
the contrary, the existing price
supports with their emphasis on
the ''basics," are bucking the trend
of consumer food preferences.
Actually, the basic crops-wheat,
cotton, corn, rice, tobacco and pea
nuts-account for only about %
? per cent of the nations total farm
income.
Yet nine-tenths of the S61a bill
lion committed to price support
operations is tied up in the basic
commodities. Approximately Sc
per cent of the receipts from all
farm marketings comes from COM
modities which are not under price
supports of any kind.
Prices Some Higher
During the last 20 years, prices
received by farmers for non-sup-
ported commodities have averaged
slightly higher in relation to parity
than the prices of those which are
supported. This would indicate
that in the current debate over
our future farm program many
people are assigning to price sup
ports an Importance far out of
proportion to the role they actu-
ally play.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1954-07-13

Here are the facts about our
surpluses: CCC today has approx
mately 61S billion dollars invested
in farm price support operations.
Approximately half of this total
is accounted for by commodities
owned outright by CCC.
Now 61a billion represents more
than one-fifth of the value of all
farm marketings for an entire
year. Slightly more than half of
the 1858 flaxSeed crop went un-
der government loan. In addition,
AZ per cent of the 1853 wheat crop,
Al per cent of the cotton crop, and
20 per cent of the peanut crop
were placed under price supports.
Borrowing Authority Increases
Early this year, Congress in
creased the borrowing authority
of CCC from 6% billion to S1a
billion. If we should continue to
accumulate surplus stocks at the
same rate during the next year
as we have in the last, further
increase in this borrowing author
ity will be required.
Today it is costing CCC in ex-
cess of 100000 per day-more
than one quarter billion dollars a
year-just to store these commod-
tiles.
These SOLDERING facts are CLOSED
over by the advocates of rigid sup
ports.
The CCC now owns or has un-
der loan enough wheat to provide
the average family in the United
States with | 400 loaves of bread
enough cotton to make 1T shirts
or 81 house dresses for each fam
ily-enough corn to provide six
months supply of pork and pork
products-enough butter for q
three months supply.
BY July l our carryover of
wheat is expected to be more than
triple what it was in July 1852
BY next August, our carryover OF
cotton is expected to be three and
half times the level of August,
1852. BY next October, stocks OF
corn are expected to be double
those of two years before.
We shall have enough wheat and
cotton on hand to carry us through
a full years domestic use, even il
this years crops were a total fail
ure.
Program DeceiVes Farmers
I said that the present program
deceives farmers by pledging sup
port at 80 per cent of parity, but
does not provide it. Here are the
facts:
