Mr.. Yung said that present
production from the mine was
1900 tons daily and before
l948 production was only 1000
tons on the average
On questioning he admitted
that this average was from 1912,
when drilling began, to 1948. He
did not mention that during the
Sino-Japanese War patriotic
miners deliberately sabotaged
the mine so that at the end Of
the war there was considerable
repair work to be done before
the mine could be used.
The enormous increase over
previous years. he said, was due
to mechanization help from
Russia and because the con-
seriousness of the workers had
been raised so that they now
are more creative.

The delegation visited Tang

The mine itself is in excellent

surely stuck for life. One ex-
PLANTATION I have got is that the
modern boys are not as willing as
were guys like me to settle down
and not be free. I don't believe
that story's true; just look at
what these suckers do, they get
their freedom back and then turn
right around and wed again.
The real answer, I will bet, is
that we've let our women get too
many rights for their own good.

a man stands just so much and
then he skips the nagger's clutch.

But Homer Cooper, Saltwater
County, suggests, Keep diverted
acres idle acres. Can you think of
a better way to upset the other fell
lows applicant than to support one
crop at the expense of another?"
Montana conditions came in for
a share of comment. Il believe we
need 80 to 100 per cent parity on all
crops grown in Montana" Arthur
Schiller, Rosebud County, says.
"a dryland wheat farmer should
have 100 per cent parity" writes
E. R. Merriman, Roosevelt County.
And L. E. Kenevan, Carbon County,
adds, with the money invested and
the chances he takes with weather
and insect hazards, 100 per cent
parity is not too much
High Protein Parity
Dawson County farmer, Tony Sir,
brought up another area problem
which many mentioned. "Since
there is no surplus of Montana high
protein wheat, it should be sup
ported at 100 per cent parity" ne
believes. Edgar I. Syverud, Sheri-
dan County, would include another
crop: Scarce high protein wheat
and durum should have special con-
sideration."
A number of voters commented
also on the new parity schedule.

MONTANA FARMERS by de-
cided majority endorse government
support of wheat prices. "How" is
not so certain, but put the question
TO a vote and you'll probably find
that most favor support at 100 per
cent of parity.
That's how it turned out in Mon
tana Farmer Stockman's December
wheat policy poll.
In ballot form, we asked: Should
wheat be supported at full 100 per
cent parity; at 80 per cent of parity;
at a flexible rate from go per cent
up, according to supply; at 100 per
cent of parity for that portion of the
crop used for domestic food pur-
poses; or not at all.
AS you can see by voting results
printed on this page, more than 80
per cent of the hundreds who
answered favor support prices for
wheat. Each type program drew
some votes; 100 per cent parity drew
the most. Less than 10 per cent of
our voters believe no support pro-
grams should be in effect, but
number of others, willing to go
along with wheat price supports
now, pointed out that any such pro-
gram should be aimed at Just one
thing-dissolving in few years.
These results are. shown clearly
m the accompanying box score. But
many who voted had opinions that
called for more than just an ''X' on
the ballot.
Here's how they felt:

90 Per Cent Parity

Most of those voting for 80 per
cent parity supports differ only in
degree with the 100 per cent advo-
Gates.
George Heide, McCone County,
sums up the general attitude. ''Pres-
ent wheat prices supported at 90
per cent of parity return a fair
amount to the producer" he writes.
o. A. Rosholt, Teton County, agrees.
Il like the present program" he
says. ut is fair. Parity is in itself
sliding scale. So I don't see any
need for putting more skids under
it."
Too, some farmers see a danger
in seeking higher or different pro-
grams. eve have fought hard for
our 80 per cent parity program"

be led into some wishfuI thinking
that we may get something better"

100 Per Cent Parity

'sThe farmer can not buy on a
protected market, sell on an unpro-
tected market and survive for any
length of time,'' says Ray Stoner,
Sheridan County. fI do not believe
it is possible for a free agriculture
to prosper if the things farmers
must buy remain artificially priced
through subsidies, tariffs, price-fix-
ing and limited production. There
fore, believe in 100 per cent parity
and production limitations if neces-
sary."
This view draws support from
many others. Il think the farmer is
entitled to the same percentage of
parity as any other industry" is the
way Riley w. Childers, Too1e
County, and w. H. Oldenburg,
Lincoln County, put it. Certainly
the wheat farmer should have what
he is allowed to raise supported at
100 per cent SO he can purchase the
necessary equipment, labor, etc.,
which is well over the 100 per cent
mark" adds Emery Kynett, Judith
Basin County.
"But we can't expect high level
supports without some type of pro-
duction controls" says Graydon c.
Udelhoven, Fergus County, and few
of the 100 per cent voters disagree.
Many though, such as c. E. Knight,
Phillips County, say, "Put controls
on bushel basis" Or, from C. E.
Stevens, Roosevelt County, "Let the
farmer seed all he wants, but only
sell so much"
Bin Surplus
And Edgar c. Gronrud, Sheridan
County, pointing out the problem of
reducing crop acreage on strip
cropped farms, says, Regardless of
wheat acreage allotment, let the
farmer crop half of his cropland
every year, and bin the surplus

we are going to need 100 per cent
to break even," is how Alex Tru-
chot, Teton County, sees it. Ross
Duke, Glacier County, casts his vote
for full 100 per cent parity-at least
80 per cent of the old parity"
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1954-01-01
Flexible Supports

1--WE need some support to keep
wheat prices from going to '33
levels, but flexible enough to pre-
vent rigid government controls"
says William Kleinert, Toole County.
Flexible supports, sufficient to pre-
vent losses in surplus years but not
to guarantee profits, are probably
all we can afford without serious
damage to the economy" adds
Summer Gerard Jr., Madison County.
It don't believe we can have a
stable economy with high-priced
supports" Custer County's J. Donald
Ochsner agrees. And Giles w.
Gregoir, Hill County. carries the
thought on: st wouldn't want wheat
supports eliminated entirely, but
like to see supply and demand de-
termine the price of wheat as much
as possible. don't want the gov
eminent running my farm. And
feel this can be the only result when
prices are pegged beyond products
demand"
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1954-01-01
Two-Price System

"a two-price plan would do away
with acreage controls and allow the
operator to resume full control of
his own operation. The government
would not be saddled with large
surpluses," comments Emil Olander,
Custer County. And, in capsule
form, that is the opinion of most
favoring this type support program
But nearly all disagreed with the
proposal as presented in the Mon
tana Farmer Stockman ballot, which
read "at 100 per cent parity on that
portion of the crop used for domestic
food purposes, the remainder to be
sold at the world market price"
They prefer the suggestion of AL
bert Focher, Yellowstone County:
'The remainder of ones crop should
be sold at world market price, used
for feed or held over for next years
quota"
Too, number of those favoring
the two-price system in general adj
vocate division of domestic needs
equally farm-by-farm, regardless of
previous wheat acreage history.
''This will give our small farmers
chance to make living, or there
may be lot of them go to the wall, "
Leslie label, Flathead County, says.
