THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, N. C., THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1947.
Peanut Committee
Meets With CCC To
Plan 1947 Program
Favor Diverting Lower
Grades Into the Oil
Industry
With indications of a bumper 1947
peanut crop to be* marketed through
Commodity Credit Corporation, repre
sentatives of all segments of the
peanut industry, appointed by their
sectional associates, met in Washing
ton, D. C., June 10, 11 and 13 to
evolve a program that will be prac
tical to the indi’stry and prevent
large unsaleable surpluses at the end
of the crop year.
These selected representatives
formed themselves into the National
Peanut Industry Committee for 1947,
and elected Roy Parrish of Moultrie,
Ga., and past president of the Na
tional Peanut Council, chairman and
Harold Smith of Washington D. C.,
secretary. A diversion plan was
recommended which would make only
the finest peanuts available for salt-1
ers, confectioners and peanut butter I
manufacturers at a more favorable)
competitive price. These recom- j
mendations would result in second
and lower grades being diverted into j
the oil industry in a more orderly •
manner. This would spread the sup-j
ply of peanut meal over the entire
vear.
After studying the proposed pro- j
gram from all angles, Commodity I
Credit Corporation agreed that a
program might be promulgated in
which they would buy No. 2 and
lower grade peanuts from shellers at
a level that will enable shellers to
sell No. 1 peanuts at a lower price
than otherwise possible, with exact
price to be established after parity
price of July 15 is known.
CCC emphasized that the price of
No. 1 peanuts sold by shellers can
not be under control and the pro
gram would only be offered in order
to place shellers in a better position
to price their peanuts on a more
nearly competitive basis with other
food items and at the same time of
fer the market a better shelled pea
nut.
