Published: Oct. lfi. 23. 1980 Law consolidates farm disaster aid prograirts Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland said recently the signing by President Carter of the' Federal Crop Insurance Act of 1980" will make available an "all-risk" type of crop insurance on virtually all major crops In all major crop producing areas in the country. He culled the bill a "a first step in consolidation of many conflicting federal farm dis aster assistance programs" Od announced "a systematic fiansion program at the rate of an additional 250 counties a year for the next five years in order to permit rapid but orderly extension of insurance coverage to farmers." Bergland said, "I have long advocated a sound, actuari-ally-based insurance pro gram as preferable to the many ad hoc programs now assisting our farm producers. These programs deliver too little money, to too few farmers, and usuully too late to be of maximum benefit. "After three years of hard negotiation, we've been able to produce a partner-ship Ofingement among the fed I government, the farmer and the private insurance industry in this bill." The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation of the U.S. De partment of Agriculture for more than 42 years has administered an "all-risk" insurance and now is estab lishing a local delivery system that will permit farmers to select either a federal or private insurance agent to service the new all-risk insur ance plan, effective for the 1981 crop yeur. "This partnership will elim inate some of the problems of the old crop insurance law and permit easy access and ser vicing for farmer policy-holders at the local level where it really counts," said Bergland. The new law also extends for one year the low-yield disaster payments program administered by the USDA's Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. Far mers will be eligible to participate in both programs for the 1981 crop year, but will not be able to receive dupli cate subsidies. "In order to retain full eligibility for disaster pay ments, farmers will have to pay the full cost of their federal crop insurance this first year," said Bergland. or "they may waive disaster program benefits and receive a subsidy of 30 percent of their FCIC premiums up to a maximum of 65 percent of their average yield for an extended period of years. These options apply only to crops eligible for disaster pavments. including upland cotton, sorghum, barley corn, wheat and rice." Only the disaster crops, including upland cotton, grain sorghum, barley, corn, wheat and rice have these limitat ions, he added. FCIC officials said farmers will receive official notifica tion bv letter of their options for these programs and will be asked to make a choice shortly after planting. Farmers will be offered an option of three levels of 'Car as Lens9 slide show part of EOSC activities In 1938, novelist Thomas Wolfe toured ten western National Parks with "Oregon ian" editor Ed Miller and Ray Conway, manager of the Oregon Motor Association. They were seeking to prove that the average worker could make such a trip in only two weeks. Wolfe's wry and anec dotal account led poet Richard Lowry and artist Erik Sand gren to follow this trio's footsteps 42 years later. They have produced an entertaining slide show entitled "The Car as Lens" which will be shown at Eastern Oregon State College Friday, Oct. 24. at 8 p.m., at the Administration Building Theater, as part of the Homecoming October Folk Festival celebration. The slide journey begins in Portland in June of 1938. The northwest is shaking off the last effects of the Depression and more and more people can afford Detroit's new model cars and family trips to the country. It ends in Utah's Bryce Canyon in April 1980 where a group armed with a huge movie camera have landed their plane for a thirty minute commune with nature on their way to Las Vegas. In between these two scenes, "The Car as Lens" presents impressions of var ious painters and authors who have traveled through this territory, including John Muir, Vladimir Nabokov, Jack Kerouac, Ansel Adams, Albert Bierstadt, and Fred erick Church, against the counterpoint of automobile advertising through the decades. "The Car as Lens" is sponsored by the Oregon Committee for the Humanit ies. Sandgren and Lowry will accompany this tour of Crater Lake, Yosemite. the Grand Canyon, Glacier and Rainier Parks. Admission is free and all are invited to attend.

Coverage levels will be 50. 65. and 75 percent of average yield as determined for a representative period of vears. At least one of the price levels will approximate the market price for the commod ity as projected by FCIC in advance. "These program improve ments, together with the availability of the program on a much wider scale, will provide the most complete disaster protection package to farmers available anywhere." Bergland said. "And the new insurance plan will build upon the actuarially sound insur ance principles already in the present FCIC program." Complete program details and announcement of new counties for the 1981 crop year will be published as soon as a new FCIC board of directors is appointed, as required by the legislation, the secretary said.
