IKE RAISES RURAL POWER RATES
in SOUTHWEST 40 PER Cent

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(CNS)-
President Eisenhower has raised cleo
trio rates 40% for many Missouri and
Oklahoma farmers.
He recently vetoed bill the SEN
ate had passed without objection and
the House approved, 201-140. The
bill prevented Interior Department
from raising rates that Southwestern
Power administration charges co-ops
and cities in it's area.
Fred G. Aandahl, assistant Interior
secretary, pushed through the rate
increase early this year over the OBJ
lection of SPAS chief, Douglas
Wright. This increase is from 5.5
mills OFT mills kilowatt hour. No
change was made in what SPA
charges three private utilities and a
large aluminium company.
Co-ops that get SPA power cover
most of Missouri and Oklahoma, but
others are scattered in Arkansas,
Texas and Louisiana. These co-ops
serve 100000 farm families. Their
leaders say they have no alternative
but to raise rates and bring in 3d.
10000 more a year to meet SPAS
increase.
In pushing the rate boost, Interior
officials explained that they had re-
distributed the cost of building 10
year-old SPA dams, reducing amounts
charged off for flood control and |

HTEA TO RELEASE another COOP
SWEARING MOVIE, SEPTEMBER

National Tax Equality Association
has geared the release of its new
movie, "The Senator's Daughter" to
the start of this falls political cam
paign.
The film is a slashing attack on all
self-service, woven around the maud
lin story of an editor, senator, and
the senator's daughter.
Two years ago NTEA produced a
similar anti-co-op film, "Citizen Dave
Douglas" Like "Citizen Dave"
NTEA's latest epic brands co-ops,
building and loan associations, credit
unions, mutual savings banks, and
mutual fire and casualty insurance
companies as tax dodgers, depriving
the government of "a billion and a
half dollars each year."
In NTEA's movie, Sam Granite,
editor of the DAILY BEACON HER
AID, is the coop antagonist. He's
engaged to Lucy, daughter of Senator
Tom. The senator wants to stand
quietly for reelection.
Sam insists on injecting "the ques-

paign. When the senator doesn't rise
to this bait, Sam wins the rival party's
nomination and defeats his future
father-in-law in the election.
Senator Tom makes pretty poor
showing as Sans political rival. Any
tolerably informed coop member
would have done better. AS the final
fade-out nears, we learn that the SEN
ator, was somehow Committed"
What he was committed to, NTEA
doesn't explain. 1t certainly wasn't
to any discussion of the facts. Not
once does the senator undertake to
explain
That all these co-ops refund al |
most all their net margins to their
customers;
That no business is taxed on such |
customer refunds;
That the small amounts remain
ing after such refund distributions |
are, in most cases, fully taxed as cor
porate income;
That non-profit business pays all
other taxes-property taxes, sales
taxes, franchise taxes, and so forth;
That mutual fire and casualty

insurance companies pay more taxes
than stock companies do, proportion
ate either to premium or income or
profits; or
That the figure of $11a billion
in "dodged taxes" is utterly pre-
posterous, no matter how coop in
come might be defined.
If Sam-and NTEA-were truly
concerned about "tax equality, they
could find much fatter game by prob
ing the 27h9 % oil depletion allow
ance, capital gains, fast tax write-offs,
or the highly favorable treatment of
dividend income.
"a House small business committee
in 1850 found that most of NTEA's
income came from giant utilities and
major grain, dairy, fertilizer, oil, lum-
Der, insurance, hardware, and coal
companies. Gin no sense" the COM
mittee said, is NTEA-"a bona fide
small business organization"
RELEASED SEPTEMBER 1
NTEA plans to release the film,
September L, just as the 2-month
campaign begins. This longtime anti
coop lobby obviously expects the
film to have a political result.
Like its predecessor, "The Sena-
tors Daughter" is directed to TV
audiences and disbursements luncheon
groups. Undoubtedly, NTEA has
funds available to buy time on key
TV stations across the country. 1t
will urge coop competitors ito buy
time for the movie on other stations.
Once again, the 13 million fami-
lies who own the nations co-ops will |
see their self-help enterprises victim
lied by mass libel and SANDER, de-
nounced as "social injustice" by a
front organization for big business
masquerading under the guise of tax
equality.

1uced the film. James Prindle wrote

How can a farm afford
the special services it needs?

Farming :. +. like any other industry -.
needs the eficiencies and economies of
specialized departments.
The farm business needs a sales de-
partment and a purchasing department
someone to counsel on insurance
and credit and many more depart
ments to work out important problems.
If it weren't for cooperatives, most
farmers couldn't afford these special
lied services. Purchasing cooperatives
supply materials and products of high
est quality at lowest possible cost. Mar
keting cooperatives help improve the
quality of produce and sell it at the
most favorable prices. Mutual insur-
ance companies provide protection at
lowest cost. Credit associations lend
money for farm operations.
These cooperatives make farming
more business-like and more profitable.

pointed out that this amounted "to

Is going on" Interior officials never
explained to Congress why coop

Wright told a Senate committee
that the increase would force farmers
to subsidize SPAS other customers.
"In fact" he said, "they're doing it
already"
The bill Eisenhower vetoed froze
SPA rates for IS months, pending a
thorough study of power rates at all
