Proposed Anderson Farm Program
Likened To Wire-Tied Junk Pile
By PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON. New farm legislation now before the Senate
Agriculture committee can best be likened to a farmyard Junk pile
being put together with bailing wire.
Maybe there's no use getting excited about it, yet. The sixth draft
of the bill being assembled by New Mexico Senator, and former
Secretary of Agriculture Clinton Anderson'i subcommittee may be
rewritten again, a number of times.
Brannan'i own producion pay
ments farm plan was of course
criticized to death In the House.
But the proposed Anderson bill
substitute, in its present form, is
a complete political Datch-work.
It takes parts of the Aiken bill,
the Hope bill, the P .ce bill, the
Steagall amendments, tne new
Gore farm bill recently passed by
the House, and even parts of the

Brannan plan Itself. On top of
this it piles some new Ideas
which are best identified as rep
resenting the views of Allan
Kline, president of the American
Farm Bureau Federation.
Congressman Gore's house bill
was also generally credited with
having been inspired by the
Farm Bureau. Gore is planning
to run for the Senate in 1950. Oth
er Tennessee congressmen have
accused Gore of backing this leg
islation to win Farm Bureau sup
port in Tennessee.
National Farmers' Union has
been backing the Brannan plan
from the start, and was against
the Gore bill. Just as consist
ently, the Farm Bureau has been
opposing the Brannan plan.
Feuding Inside Bureau
Inside the Farm Bureau, how
ever, there has been considerable
feuding. Kline, representing

corn and wheat states, is pri
marily interested in strong sup
ports for those crops. This issue
was fought out at a recent meet
ing of Farm Bureau directors in
Chicago. As a result, Farm Bu
reau policy was changed. The or
ganization now favors higher sup
ports for cotton and other basic
commodities, with quotas and
marketing agreements on all
crops.
After the House upset the Bran
nan plan and passed the Gore
bill, the Senate Agriculture Com
mittee held brief hearings. They
were called to consider the so
called Thomas (of Oklahoma I
farm bill, which would have sat
up the Brannan plan. But the
hearings never got around to the
Thomas bill. They talked about
everything else.
All this farm organization pol
itics made the Senate Agricul
ture Committee realize that the
Gore bill wouldn't do. At this
juncture Senator Anderson an
nounced he would draw up a new,
compromise farm bill. The Farm
Bureau has had a big hand in its
drafting. But what they have pro
duced so far has been criticized
as having so many compromises
in it that it is completely un
clear and unworkable.
Catch Is Pointed Out
The bill seems to accept the
Aiken formula for flexible price
supports on the basic commodi
ties wheat, corn, tobacco, rice,
cotton and peanuts. But it raises
minimum support level from 60
to 75 percent of parity. Then it
flatly sets tobacco support at 90
percent of parity and it says
there should be 90 percent parity
support for all crops on which
marketing quotas or acreage al
lotments are in effect. In the end,
everything would probably get 90
percent.
The Anderson bill then seems
to provide for support price, loan
or production payment opera
tions for nonbasic, perishable
commodities. But there's a catch.
Brannan plan-type production
payments would be barred on
perishables like livestock or milk
if the price support operations
can be carried out on their more
storable products.
What this seems to mean is
that livestock could not be sup
norted if canned meat could be

Wool Output In
Oregon Declines
Oregon's 1919 shorn wool pro
duction, estimated at 5.219.000
pounds by the Portland office of
the USDA crop reporting serv
ice. is by far the smallest output
jn 50 years of record.
It is 14 percent less than
the previous 19-18 low of 6,100,000
pounds. The decreased produc
tion Is a combination of smaller
numbers shorn and lhler aver
age fleece weights. The recoid
large clip In Oregon was in 1931
when 22 million pounds were pro
duced. Number of sheep shorn this
season is estimated at 648,000
head, the smallest of record
this marks the 15th consecutive
year of decreased numbers
shorn. The decrease in number
shorn this year is largely due to
the heavier than usual losses as
a result of the severe winter.
Total stock sheep on hand Jan
uary 1 was little changed from a
year ago.

Admits He Was
'$50 A Day Boy'
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22-4.T)
Washington's Republican Sena
tor Cain told the Senate that a
Walli Walla attorney, who wrote
an article favoring the Columbia
Valley administration, had been
"a $50 a day boy" for the In
terior department.
The attorney, Charles Luce,
promptly agreed that it was true,
and asked what was wrong with
that.
Luce's article was Inserted in
the Congressional Record by
Washington's Democratic Sena
tor Magnuson, who favors a CVA.
Magnuson described Luce as a
prominent attorney.
Then Cain, who opposes a CVA
told feilow senators yesterday that
they should know of Luce's con
nection with the Interior depart
ment in evaluating his CVA
stand.
Contacted at The Dalles, Ore.,
last night, Luce said it was no
secret that he had been employed
to prepare testimony for CVA
hearings at "the usual basis $30
a day."
"If the government wants to
hire me for organizing a hear
ing, I expect to charge them
something." he said. "So far as
I know, Mr. Cain is not working
for nothing."
As far as the article Is con
cerned. Luce said he wrote If for
the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin
In reply to an earlier article
which had opposed a CVA.. Both
the pro and con articles were
inserted In the Congressional Rec
ord, he added.

Filbert Growers Get
Advice To Avert Losses
PORTLAND, Aug. 22 -.Pi-Filbert
growers can be saved
from heavy financial loss only if
30 percent of the nut crop is de
clared surplus.
That was the testimony of John
Trunk, manager of the North
west nut growers, Dundee, at a
Department of Agriculture hear
ing here. Only 70 percent of the
crop should be put on the mar-
KPt, ne said, to bolster prices.
The hearing is designed to get
data on which to decide whether
a federal marketing agreement
should cover filberts.
The first opposition witness
was Kenneth A. Brown. Gervais.
His advice: "Sack the entire pro
posed program.
At the meeting's close, how
ever. Trunk asked that the pro
gram be put into effect by Oct. 1.
so as to cover this year's crop.
