Dump Million Pounds Spuds
On Market; U. S. Keeps Buying
New Orleans, Feb. 9 (U.R) A fruit broker Imported and put near
ly one million pounds of Canadian potatoes on the New Orleans
market Wednesday as the U. S. government sweated out the
"dumping" of 40,000,000 pounds of surplus spuds.
Joseph Segarl supervised the unloading of 864,800 pounds of
Canadian potatoes from a Swed
ish ship here. He said he could
wing a deal like that cheaper
than he could buy any of the
huge surplus from Maine or
Idaho.
Because potatoes won't keep
In storage like cotton, wheat or
naval stores, the government is
buying the surplus for two cents
pound.
Then it offers them back to
the farmers for token payments
of as little as one cent per 100
pounds. The farmer must dump
them themselves. The farmers
may draw as much as $50,000,-000.
Rail freight rates may have
dipped into the crazy economics
of the Segarl situation, although
he refused to comment on ship
ping prices.
Steel, for example, can come
down the Mississippi river
cheaper by barge than by rail.
Segarl said he understood im
ports of Canadian spuds to Sa
vannah, Ga., Tampa, and Jack
sonville, Fla., was the "general
dtuation."
Segari brought the spuds from
F. W. Pirle Co., Ltd., at Grand
Tails, New Brunswick.
The move brought Into sharp
focus some congressional and
newspaper criticism of the agri
culture department's price sup
port policy.
Senate democratic leader
Scott W. Lucas, 111., has said that
he is "sick and tired of subsidi
sing a few specialized groups
who won't cooperate like the
rest of the farmers."
Sen. Owen Brewster, (R
Me.,) referred to the dumping
as an "Incredible waste."
Sen, Clinton P. Anderson, (D.,
N.M.,) former secretary of agri
culture, said either the agricul
ture department should be au
thorized to impose rigid produc
tion controls on potatoes or the
pud price support program
should be abandoned.
