The vote was taken after a lone debate between Brannan plan backer E. H. Spoor, Cali fornia rancher and chairman of the California state committee of the U. S. Production and Marketing administration, and Albert Goss, national master of the Grange, defending the Grange plan. Present flan Poor Both sides Goss and SDOor agreed the present farm support program was a poor one But went to great length in defend ing an individual plan to replace it. Spoor, who appeared upon Secretary of Agriculture Char les Brannan's behalf, favored the Brannan plan and its pro duction payments as a means of reducing prices and increasing consumption of meat, milk, eggs and other protective foods, thus improving the national diet. The Californian said the plan would treat all commodities equitably, would add no new controls, would create no new bureaus and probably would cost no more. Expanding Market Goss pointed to the Grange plan as a means of expanding markets, giving both fixed and flexible price supports and two price systems, while keeping production controls and produc tion payments. The national master said the Brannan plan actually was in flationary, because the esti mated $10,0000,000,000 to S12. 000.000.000 annual cost would have to be raised through higher taxes which in turn would have to be passed on to consumers through higher prices on goods. The debate came about after retiring State Master Morton Tomkins had urged the con vention to support a "trial run" of the Brannan plan. Dead line for Sunday Classified Is at Noon Saturdays.
