^ | Oovldion THIS WEEK ? Ia Washington VVif/j Clinton Davidson - Problem of Two Muck 1 With the 195# ten acuon - in full swing this week (mm 1 are g? heriig another bumper ~ crop of almost everything except - cash _ I For the second year in a row ; - total farm marketings tills year | I will set a new record, yet Bet farm I "income will be more than a billion i - dollars under last year. I That is the heart of the farm 'problem which has Wellington -more worried than ever before. Zlt means higher costs ot govern ment farm programs at the same -time farmers are having their income cut. - it means, to, that there will be heavy pressure cf Congress next -year to do some:hing about (1) -growing surpluses and rising larm ^program costs, and <2> farm in come depressed to the point where it endangers national prosperity. Despite farm income officially estimated by I'SDA at 12 per cent below last year, farmers are spending almost half a billion dol lars more in farm operating ex penses. They are caught in a tightening cost-price squeeze. I City Workers Hit I W?>en farmer's income is redu ced by a billion dollars and they must spend half a billion more' ] for the things they buy it means | they must either cut down on fam ily living expenses ?r go deeper into deb!. ? Mdii> die uuwg uuui. nucu j they reduce their buying of such j "luxuries" as automobiles, refrig erators. clothing, etc., it means , fewer jobs for factory workers. 1 1 And when factory workers lose 1 their johs they must cut down on | purchases of the things farmers produce. Also, they buy fewer things than other factory workers ( produce. j That is why many people who take the trouble to look at bath ( sides of the "farm problem" real- 1 be that when farmers are hurt I ( many city people also suffer. ^ What city workers gain in cheap . food they more than lose m the loss of farm customers for what they produce for sale to farmers. For every farmer on the land there are three people in towns and cities who make a living proc essing and marketing farm prod ucts or in manufacturing trucks, tractors, automobiles, clothing etc.. that farmers by. Smear Campaign Ail of us hear and read about the $7 billion a year "farm prog ram" costs and some assume that this is money paid to farmers as j a subsidy. The facts completely disprove the charges ithat the gov ernment is "keeping farmers in clover and Cadillacs." Of that amount almost $2 bil lion a year goes to finance foreign aid programs. More than $600 Mil lion in spent for food for free distributions and others in this country. It includes, too, more than $500 million la loans to M E ' A and other cooperatives, which (armors repay in full, with interest Anoth er >650 million goes for such thiols as research to improve food qual ity, for meat inspection and like programs of primary benefit to consumers. Half a billion a year is invested in preserving our soil, water and timber resourses in order to assure a plen iful supply of food for future generations. The charge that far mers are "getting something for nothing" from the government is completely false. Until city people understand that, as farmers already do. Washington is going to have difficulty in mak ing needed changes in present farm laws.
