Senator Graham's
Work Means Much
To Peanut Grower
■ ' Peanut farmers in the south
who have been beleaguered with
• acreage cuts can thank Senator
Graham for the recently passed
. law amending the program, ac
cording to a recent story carried
. in the Williamston Enterprise.
The record shows that it was
Senator Graham who successful
ly pleaded with President Tru
man in behalf of the peanut far
i mers, heading off a veto and sav
ing the amendment concerning
edible peanuts. The story as car
ried in the Enterprise is reprint
I ed below:
While his mortal enemies ped
dle hate and engage in disreput
able smearing tactics, Frank Gra
ham, candidate for the United
States Senate, has accomplished
much for Martin County farmers
and others in the peanut produc
ing areas. According to informa
tion coming out of Washington
ns released by Congressman Her
bert C. Bonner at the Martin
County Farm Bureau meeting a
few days ago, peanut farmers
with virtual assurance that all
plantings of the edible type pea
nuts will receive parity support.
On the basis of the assurance
received, Martin County fann
ers stand to profit to the tune of
about $350,000.00 next fall. Their
peanut acreage reduced to a little
more than 19.000 acres this year
by the original law, farmers, as
a result of an amendment, now
may plant right at 23.000 acres,
I meaning that the income from
the additional acres will approx
imate $350,000, weather condit
ion and other factors permitting.
Senator Graham, the record
shows, successfully pleaded with
President Truman in behalf of
the peanut farmers, headed off
a veto, and saved the law amend
ing the program and including
folk, Va., attended the baccalau
reate sermon at the Creswell high
school and visited friends around
Creswell.
Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Fisher, of
Lake Landing were the week-end 1
guests of Mr. and Mrs. H. A. \
Norman. i
edible peanuts.
Frank Graham, while opposing
the Brannan plan, said this week
that he would not hesitate to sup
port other changes in the present
program when such changes
could benefit the farmer, and are
similiar to the change made for
peanuts and cotton.
It has been pointed out that
while one billion dollars were
spent supporting farm prices dur
ing the past ten years nearly
ten billion dollars were spent to
aid industry. These figures were
Sf^MMAmAAMWMMWWIMIUWI
released by Congressman Jamie
Whitten, chairman of the sub
committee on agricultural ap
propriations, before a meeting of
the Matrin County Farm Bureau
in Williamston on Friday, May 5,
and are not to be refuted. The ac
tion taken to balance the farm
eco nomy has been branded by
some forces as being Socialistic,
but those same forces have never
-aid the first word about the ten
billion dollars dumped into the
fat laps of industry and the cor
porations being socialistic.
