Southwest Cattle, Wheat
Men for High Supports
By BARNEY LIVINGSTONE
ENID,
Okla. Southwestern
wheat and cattle growers, in an
initial sampling of opinion, have
registered a one-sided rejection of
President Eisenhower's proposal to
abandon rigid high-level farm price
supports.
Of more than 50 farm spokes
men to appear Tuesday before
touring members of the House Ag
riculture Committee, not one spoke
in favor of the President's plan
of flexible supports.
This included representatives of
all major Oklahoma farm organi
zations. As the committee headed for
Waco. Tex., Wednesday for further
sampling of sentiment in the wheat
Li1 cattle country,
committee
f Democrats predicted the Presi
dent's plan of flexible farm price
props was doomed in Congress.
"President Eisenhower made a
fatal error in asking for a sliding
scale of price supports in this
area." stated Rep. Albert (D
Oklai. "He can't sell it to farmers in
the cotton, wheat and peanut
growing country."
Cotton, wheat and peanuts are
three of the "big six" basic com-
moriilin
now supported by the
ity. The others are rice, tobacco
and corn.
While Republican members con
tinued to be non-commital, Chair
man Hope (R-Kan) said the farm
1 ' c support issue appeared to be
a matter of "details rather than
principles."
Other GOP committee members
indicated that they regarded the
political timing of Eisenhower's
program with elections coming up
next fall, as one of the "details."

tf L v --.
i Farm Bureau, Farmers Union and
the Oklahoma Grange presented
a united front favoring continua
tion of the present system of rigid
price supports at SO per cent of
parity.
Save for the Farmers Union,
farm groups also opposed direct
supports of price guarantees on
cattle. Farmers Union witnesses
urged 90 per cent supports on cat
tle and other perishables as well.
A number of individual wit
nesses, some of whom traveled all
me oi wnom traveled ail
from Kansas and Texasl
the way
to have their say, lent colorful
emphasis in their dissatisfaction
with anv rhange in the present
farm program.
One was Pat Hamilton, of Fargo,
Okla., a weathered cattleman
whose trousers were stuffed into
high boots and whose white hair
was put in a braid at the back ef
his head.
"I went broke under Coolidge,
under Hoover in 1929 and I'm
damned if I want to go broke un
der Eisenhower," he rumbled.
Bill Lance, a wheat grower from
Perryton. Tex., told the commit
tee that "in Texas we'd liki to be
rugged individualists but we
wouldn't like to be ragged indi
vidualists." Niles Gibson, who said he farms
400 acres in McPherson County,
Kan., declared:
"We farmers voted for Eisen
hower because he said in several
of his campaign speeches that we
farmers were entitled to full parity-
"The Eisenhower program for
the sliding scale is the same as
no program at all. Consequently
we farmers do not want a farm
program if that is the best you can
do."

Albany Rejects
Peddlers' Law
Albany After being studied
by the retail division of the Al
bany Chamber f Commerce for
more than three weeks, an ordi
nance designed to regulate ac
tivities of peddlers and solicitor
within the Albany city limits was
rejected this morning by the
chamber group. Chairman Kelly
McKeehan revealed.
If the proposed ordinance had
received approval of the retail
division it would have been pre
sented to the Albany city coun
cil for passage. But following
the group's meeting at the A
bany hotel McKeehan said a let
ter would be written to City
Manager C R. Reiter urging that
the council not consider passage
of the peddlers' ordinance.
However, the retail division,
voicing the belief that a suitable
ordinance can be devised, ap
pointed a committee to study the
matter further and to attempt to
"find or develop an ordinance"
which would regulate or elimi.
nate "unethical or Illegitimate
peddlers' or solicitors activities.'
Members of the committee will
be V. A. Hurley, Don Primrose
and Don Jolley, it was announc
