WASHINGTON on - Secretary
of Agriculture Benson, in his first
annual report to the President,
said Monday 19S3 was a year In
which a long decline in farm
prices had been halted and a
"sound permanent" farm program

It also was a year, the secre

taken to adjust agriculture's pro

"The problem was mad mnr
difficult because the tools avail
able were not fully adequate to the
needs of the 1950s," Benson said.
"The present farm programs were
basically developed during the
1930s as a part of the battle
against the depression of those
years.
"They were amended during the
1940s as a part of this nation's
economic answer to the total war
of those years." he continued.
"But the age we now live in is
different. The demand situation is
different than it was in either the
great depression or the great war.
The production situation Is , also
