Perquimans CrOlinty Farm Bureau Adopt Resolutions PERQUIMANS COUNTY FARM BUREAU ADOPT RESOLUTIONS The Perquimans County Farm Bureau Resolutions Committee adopted resolutions to be sent to the annual meeting in Durham. These resolutions consist of our policies and views that the farmers have on the different issues that affect them. The resolutions were drawn up by the following committees and adopted by the members at the annual meeting held Monday night, November 8, 1971. General Resolutions-Young farmers and Ranchers Com m i 1 1 e e Donald Madre, chairman, Johnny Corprew, Secretary, Billy Williams, Reporter, and David Williams, Director. ECOLOGY 1. Chemical Companies and applicators of chemicals should be held liable for any damage incurred by a farmer following recommended practices. 2. Farm Bureau should promote research to protect farmers against toxic chemicals and farm land against undue residue of toxic chemicals. i 3. We encourage an am mendment to the open burning law that would allow farmers to burn brush and straw residue in small grain fields. STATE TAXES We encourage the Farm Bureau to make the farmer aware through news media that farmers are to pay only 1 per cent tax on all farm items. 2. We favor the Farm Bureau policy to eliminate all items in our tax structure which discriminate against agriculture. COUNTY TAXES 1. We feel that two-thirds majority is needed to carry a vote in a referendum. RESEARCH 1. We recommend that research in pest control be intensified. PROMOTION 1. We double our efforts to strengthen the Farm Bureau in every way. LOCAL AFFAIRS 1. Welfare should be handled at the local level. 2. Farmers should be involved in zoning property. 3. ' We oppose the breakdown of our public school system brought on by a Dictatorial Socialistic Government 4. Farm Bureau should continue its efforts to have farm land appraised and taxed on the basis of its value for agricultural use so long as it is actively devoted Afaem arte Rvritans To Meet Here Dec. 3 The Albemarle district of Ruritan National will hold its annual convention at the Holiday Inn in Elizabeth City on Saturday, Dec. 3 at 6:30 p.m. Billy Forehand of Shiloh la governor of the district and Charoie Mims of Currituck is the lieutenant governor.

(Chub) Seawell, Jr., a native of Carthage, will be the principal speaker. .He is a graduate of the Wake Forest College Law School and was a Republlcan candidate for governor in the 1953 elections.' to that use." ' J -HIGHWAYS 1. Farm Bureau should work on legislature requiring one sign be displayed on farm equipment We are now required to have a SMV sign and a four foot square red flag. 2. It should be required mat the manufacturers Install roll bars on tractors and SMV signs on all new equipment sold. 3. We recommend universal signs in each state. MARKETING 1. We support the Sisk Bill, which is the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1971. We encourage the Farm Bureau to double its efforts to get this Act passed in 1972. Quote, Chairman Albert Eure, "This is the most important bill that has ever come before the farmers and we should do everything to get It passed." Quote William J. Kuh full, President AFBF, "The days of take-it-or-leave-lt must come to an end, and we, as' farmers, believe that this is a proper role for government to play in establishing procedures which require good faith bargaining between handlers and qualified associations of producers. Farm Bureau is solidly in support of legislation to improve the legal foundation upon which farmers can build their own effective, non governmental marketing and bargaining association."
