Why? Be- ■ oau;e there’s not only seems to be some foreign element within I the framework within our soc- I iety; but has proven factual. And only will I here be harmony williin OLJ- s'chool system when the American public awakens to the truth. America must demand ; cf its Icadersliip to reevaluate and to re-assess roll, as the pr tccior of the American pub lic. America will never accom plish true equality witiiin this wrid or the oti.vr. A nation was divvied to the i.ur cn tiers of the earth a long .. ago due to »uch sa.me action. CL mixin-e where it was contrary to the will -f God. And America can also be scatter ed in like manner.

Think about it all Amer ica? Respectfully, EVERETTE H. PEARSON. Secretary cf Agriculture Elarl L. But/ gave farmers a new oI> ■ Lion under the 1972 feed grain : program which will give them larger payments. j All prevlousJy-announaed pro- j vislomi of the protgram are still I avallabe tor set-aside of feed grain acreage, TTie affering of the now option tollows indication . of larger than expected 1972 feed I grain plantings, particularly corn as reported in a January 1 sur- ; vey of fanners' intentions re- , leased recently. 'This added option will maJte ; the set-aside program more fe- : fectlve in protecliq^ feed grain farm income this year," said . Secretary But/. The secretary I went on to say. “We are deter mined to provide the kjnd qf pro- ‘ gram that will rfve producers , the widest possible latitude in participation choices while en- , ahllng them to keep feed grain production with i n reasonable limits." j Under the new option, corn producers, after setting aside I the 25 per cent of their feed grain I ha.se to qualify them to earn ! able to earn an increasedshrd an increased rate of payment on additional set-asidtt—ijO cents , per bushel on an added 10 per cent of their base. For sorghum, the payment will be increased to ; 76 per bushel. To qualify for the higher payment rate under this new provision, the producer will agree that for each acre of addi tional set-aside, hts 0972 plant ings of corn-grain sorghum will be reduced by two acres below his 1971 corn-grain sorghum ac reage. Thus, one acre would be set aside and held out of all production and the second acre would be held out of corn-grain sorghum production but could be ' planted to any crop not subject I to other program restrictions. In addition, producers may offer an additional 5 per cent of their corn-grain sorphum base at the same rate which may be accept ed at the option of the secretary. ; As originally announced for the 1972 program, producers can qualify for a payment of 52 cents per bushel for corn and 49 cents per bushel lor grain sorghum, for a 10 per cent e.xtra voluntary , set-aside. This will continue to ! be available. They will aso b« ; eJglble as announced Octotoer 18, ; 1971, for another 5 or 10 per cent at this same rate with the department announcing in late March whether any of this will I be aocciited. .| ! If a producer u.ses the nr v I additional -aside option of - ! ed today, in will forgo any j Uonal set-- -Ip optims for ^ sorphum or trurloy. The .set-.a.-' W payment ra'.t-: j are based -n a farm’s established j per acre yield. There is no extra option fori barley producers. Their program ' is unchanged from that origin ally announued. Signups for participation ip the 1973 program began Feibruary 3, and will continue through March -ID. Concurrently, prodi cers of wheat and of cotton will be sign ing up for their programs. USDA is urglnj producers to work closely with their Agricul tural Stabilization and Oonser- vation Service (ASCSi bounty to be sure the land, certified as gible and represents average crepland when corttpared with the land on which they they are plantiog the crop. Compliance reporters will be paying pertlcu- lar attention to these require ments as wel las measuring the certified acreage when they spot check farms in 1972. Measurement service, which is available from A9GS offices for a nominal fee, can assure a far.m- er that his designated acreage meets all roqiulrements for ac ceptable set-aside.
