new ANTITRUST and MONOPOLY GROUP
TO CONTINUE LANCER PROBE

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(NRCEA)
The Senate chairman of the sub
committee on Antitrust and Monop-
oily, Sen. Harley Kilgore wv. Va.),
has announced that he would pick
up where former Chairman William
LANCER IN. d. left off, and continue
investigating monopoly influence of
the commercial electric utility indus
try.
Sen. Kilgore said that he would ask
for $175,000 to finance this years
investigation. He predicted that the
subcommittee would probe big bust
ness mergers, high electric rates
charged by commercial utilities, and
the concentration of wealth that
runs itself into monopolistic prac-
tees"
Meantime, the Senate Judiciary
Committee reorganized the subcom-
mittee. In addition to Kilgore, who
is also chairman of the full commit

(Wyo.), William LANCER IN. d.,

Kilgore said that he will recon-
mend that the committee look into
private power rates and examine the
affect of power rates on industrial
development in various states. He
predicted that would be big job and
that it would take "plenty of digging"
and perhaps would be more than a
year before positive results would be
available.
"Some states are being crucified by
high rates." he said, closing the

which the prices of basic commodities
will be supported at 821a to 80 per
cent of parity at Mr.. Benson's discre-
| ton.
In the past 215 years, net farm
income has declined about Is per
cent but :.
In his State of the Union message,
President Eisenhower said the farm
program is "headed in the right di-
rection." From this statement by
President Eisenhower, and others by
Mr. Benson and his top aides, it is
evident that there are several mis-
conceptions about our farm program.
One is that the guarantee OF a
fair price would somehow make our
farmers inexcusably prosperous. This
is not borne out by the facts. In l949,
farm prices averaged 99% of parity
yet the average net income per
farm person was only half that of
the average non-farm person. In
1851, farm prices were 107ao of par
ity-yet the average net income per
farm person was $1,718, compared
with the $3,416 net of the average
industrial worker.
Another misconception is that retail
food prices fall with farm income.
They don't. The net farm income IS
off 1870 in the past 21a years. | leave
it to you to say how much your gro
Gerry bill has decreased.
A third misconception is that you
cut production by cutting farm price
Those who so argue are
wrong on two counts. First, they as
sumo that farmers can shift from
one cash crop to another, or decrease
heir acreage with little or no trouble.
That just isn't so. Second, when farm
prices drop, farmers must-and-do
Increase production in an attempt
o maintain their income.
Parity is agriculture's minimum
wage. No one is proposing to cut
labor's minimum wage. On the con-
trary, we're proposing to raise 1T.
Parity is TO agriculture what cost
plus contracts and rapid tax write
offs are to business. No one is
proposing that we do away with
these.
The businessman, the laborer and
ne farmer are equally important to
ur economy. They must be treated
5 such. And they are entitled to an
quail voice in President Eisenhower's
abinet.
