ASC Committeemen
Restrictions Eased
Chairman Says Act Pro
hibits Limitation on
f Members’ Term
H. D. Godfrey, administration offi
cer of the State ASC, has pointed out
that the Agricultural Act of 1954 re-1
vokes Secretary of Agriculture Ben- j
son’s recent order that county and
community committeemen would not
be eligible for re-election after hav
ing served all or part of the last three
consecutive terms.
Secretary Benson’s original order
made an exception in the case of
county committeemen to the effect
that if all three members of the coun
ty committee had served for the last
three consecutive terms, one county
committeemen would be eligible for
re-election in order that it not be an
entirely new committee as a result of
his order.
Quoting Fred Keith, State ASC
chairman, Godfrey said that the Agri
cultural Act of 1954 prohibits the Sec
retary of Agriculture from imposing
any limitation on the number of terms
for which members of county commit
tees may be re-elected. He pointed
out, however, that the new law made
no mention of the restriction on re
election of community committeemen
under Benson’s original order and
community committeemen may still be
re-elected after having served during
the last three consecutive terms.
Godfrey brought out other recent
changes in connection with the elec
tion of ASC county and community
committeemen. One of these changes,
he said, was to create county election
boards to conduct annual elections of
ASC committeemen. Under the new
setup, the county election board will
be made up of the county extension
agent, county representatives of the
Soil Conservation Service and the
Farmers Home Administration, and
the county heads of the Farm Bureau
and Grange. The county election
board will meet prior to September 14
and select the community election
boards. The community election board
will be composed of three farmers re
siding in the community who are not
new members of the community Com
mittee.
| The new regulations also tightened
' restrictions on eligibility for election
as county committeemen to prohibit
officials of farm organizations from
serving. The new regulations also
prohibited county committeemen from
acting as sales agents or employees of
the Federal Crop Insurance Corpora
tion, as marketing quota review com
mitteemen, or as employees of county!
offices.
America by 1975 will be driving 85
million trucks and automobiles on its
highways and rural roadways. By
1975, it is anticipated, there will be
one car for every two to two and one
half persons. Now there is one car
for every three persons.
The National Association o Manu- j
ffacturors, citing figures from The
President’s Materials Policy Commis
sion Report of June, 1952, states that
America’s dynamic growth by 1975
can mean 05 million passenger cars
and 20 million trucks on the nation’s,
roads.
The report states that “the project
ed domestic requirement for automo
biles (by 1975) is therefore between
6.5 and 7.5 million ...” per year. j
