Farm Bureau Goes Conservative at Seattle Meeting . - < IrganizaliMii Demand ini: More Local Government In Dandling Affairs Seattle—America's largest 'arm organization emerged from its 34th annual convention prepared to fight for restoration of the vc— sj/onsiblities and authoiity of local government. Resistance to feder al domination was tht kevnote of dozens of resolutions covering many phases of agricultural and economic policy. These resolutions now become the blueprint for American Farm Bureau Federation programs and legistlative activity. They repre sent a continuation of basic fed eration policy But they put stronger emphasis on decentrali zation of government, stimulation of world trade, local development of natural resources, and inten sified agricultural research. With a change of admmistra tion m Washington, the federa tion has high hop.-s of a reversal in the trends which it feels have limited free enterprise more and more. But it realizes there will be no sudden repeal of many of the objectionable measures enacted in the last lit) years. Flexible Price Support Musi eofrtt evei-la! w'SS* a le.-o lution favoring flexible puce .-up pints. There are still those m the federation, chiefly from tile South, who hold out for the rigid 90 per cent e| parity support program. But experience with acre.ue eon ^ trols and marketing quota- has convinced the majority of the or ganization that rigid control are not good foi agriculture The resolution also say- thu< ", order to entourage high produc tion per man, emphasis in farm programs should continue to be on "adequate pile.es in the market plate rather than on income sub ncues. The problem is to provide reasonable price protection with out going to the extreme of price fixing.” The federation’s board of direc tors is asked to make a eumore hensive review of existing price support and production-adjust merit legislation in view of this and othei pruiples of the organi zation The resolution strongly opposes any expasion of the crop insurance program until it is "placed on a sound actual ba.-is Decenti.diz.ition Backed The farmers took a strong stand for action on decentraliza tion and coordination of govern ment. They urged the federation’s board to develop a specific plan. "Every program, they .aid. "should he examined to ascertain if it is actually needed, and it so, whether it can be reduced, com bined or decentralized, and to what extent it need coordination with other programs to avoid overlapping, duplication, and in efficiency." The resolution called for revi sion of the entire civil .-ervic* system "to insure that incompe tence is not protected; initiative is rewarded instead of stifled; federal employees in then dti eiai capacity, an prohibited from organizing or promoting causes not specifically directed by law; and Communists arc eliminated at all levels of government.” The Seattle convention afforded ^ abundant evidence that the think ing of farmers is becoming cryst alized on the moot issue of con trol ainj development of watei re sources.

The delegates endorsed the use of in H . state compacts where the inter . rated development ot a river val- 1 lev is n< ci ssary.

The fat llieis’ d< - p eoiicei 11 owl this problem arises, one spokes man said, from an increasing feeling that federal agencies with headquarters in Washington com pletely disregard the viewpoints f local people and government units with respect to development of their resources. The convention took a firm stand on public power, urging sale of federally owned generating plants and transmission lines to private enterprise or local public institutions. Because ol the importance of mm ,:4—aatiWMNMr f « can farmers, the convention rec ommended that Congress appoint a bipartisan commission "to pre pa i e specific legislative propos als sotting forth the role of the United States in developing and expanding free-world economies.” Among other things, (he commis sion would find ways to increase United States imports without un duly burdening domestic enter prists. "Both industry and agri culture," the resolution stated, "must share the responsibility for proper balance of imports and ex ports ” Mrs. Raymond Sayre, retiring president of the associated wom en of the federation and exchair man of the resolution subcom mittee on international affairs, ex plained: "We feel that this coun try has ne ver really faced up to wh it should do as a creditor nation ’It has just gone at the problem piecemeal. Now we be lieve there should be a commis sion to look at the overall export import problem and come up With a total policy.” New Administration faces farm parity fight. HAYSEED - By Unci.e Sau _ GOD S GIFT TO T1IE WORLD "But when the fullness of time was dome, God sent forth his Son, Made of a woman, matte under the law, To redeem them that were under thi' law, that w«j might re ceive the ado'.tion of sons." Gala tiens. -l . - .... ,, - The world is now in a great cri sis. The human race is traveling in high gear but will have to de cide whether it will take the right hand or the left hand road. !i the human race drives madly on, taking the wrong direction, the noble experiment of freedom and libel tv with all they have brought the world will be lost in the fog and darkness of distruot, hatred and i mins. On the other hand if we accept God's greatest and best gift to the world and make him our pattern he '‘ ill lead us tri umphantly on. In the fullness of time which the prophets had written about, in the time when the world had made ready for this great event bv an era of peace, God chose this time to give Jesus Christ to the world The So not God was divinely commissioned to robe himself in the mantle of flesh and dwell on earth as a man, Jesus as the gift of God brought conviction for sin. He gives to the penitent person a new heart and to the obedient a full salvation. He will keep the humble Chris tian through life and walk with him through the valley of tin shadow of death and welcomt him into the place prepared for His faithful followers. Predicting His Defeat In 1956 Senator Wayne Morse, Inde pendent, from Oregon, recently told an audience that he expected to he defeated in Ifl56 as a result of his bolt from the Republican Party this tear Early in 1952, hr was an ardent supporter of Gen ernl Eisenhower, hut became dis illusioned as the campaign got un derway and switched his support to Governor Stevenson—the De mocratic candidate At the same time, he announced he was resign ing I rum thi Republican Party. After the election and the Eis enhower victory . Senator Morse continued to stick by his theme, announced whin he bolted from the G. O P. In a recent speech, he again asserted his opinion that General Eisenhower started what a questioner called the demagogic appeal in the late campaign. Thus, Senator Morse is now an Independent, his candidate defeat ed hut he himself unbowed. He promises a fight in llMti for re election even though he says he spectacle on the political scene and the public office-holder' who admits he expects defeat is indeed a rue official in these times. It occurs to us that Morse’s fu ture. seriously depends not upon himself so much as it does upon the performance of the new Re publican Administration. Should the new Administration run into serious trouble, such as a domes tic economic crisis, or should it in volve this country in a larger Far Eastern war than we aie now en gaged in, Senator Morse may reap some benefit from the Republican difficulty. , on the other hand, it the Repub lican Administration manages to end the war in Korea and prevent an economic depression, wi»h con tinuing prosperity, Senator Morse may find the going in his hid for reelection very difficult in 195<i. However, one must keep in mind that 1956 is a far glimpse into the future. When even the pollsters cannot predict an election several days before the event, it is cer tainly obvious that no one can predict a political campaign four years hence.

Let's say it was thirty-one years ago, on a beautiful morning in June, when a farmer’s boy sat down on the grass beside his father’s mailbox. He was waiting for the cloud of dust that would signal the approach of the mailman's car. But the fust cloud of dust that showed in the distance was,not of the mailman’s making. It came from the wheels of a Cadillac filled with happy, friendly people—who waved and smiled and rolled away. “ I here,” thought the youngster, “is the car for me!" * * * And w hile the dust was settling on the grass and trees about the farmer’s lad, another boy stood b\ a rack of papers on a busy street in a distant city—and heard the friendly horn of another Cadillac. “Keep the change,” the driver smiled, as he took his paper and rolled out into the traffic.
